[geeklog-devel] Google shutting down Google Code

[Tom]

How about the nexpro stuff as well then?  I don’t think anyone is using that code so we can store it for archival purposes.

 

I would like to keep the rest of the stuff using Mercurial as well just to make things easier (but not in the Geeklog repository for the reasons you suggest).

Things we only want to keep for archival purposes we could also host on http://project.geeklog.net/cgi-bin/hgwebdir.cgi/ aka hg.geeklog.net

 

Our own repository is not a replacement for platforms like Google Code, since only people with commit access for Geeklog could commit changes there (and vice versa). Which is why I suggest to only use it for things that are static and not better kept elsewhere.

 

Speaking of which, I also received an email from Google Code about our GSoC repositories

*	google-summer-of-code-2007-geeklog
*	google-summer-of-code-2008-geeklog
*	google-summer-of-code-2009-geeklog
*	google-summer-of-code-2010-geeklog

These contain the contributions of our GSoC students for the respective years. We don't exactly need them (the code is already in our repository in one form or another) but I simply hate losing stuff, especially things that a lot of effort went into. I'll look into getting those over to hg.geeklog.net

<sarcasm>Well that is just great news....</sarcasm> Google seems to be
shutting down a fair number of things lately.

At http://code.google.com/p/geeklog/

I have the following plugins:

Forum
Search Word Plugin
Autotags Plugin
Language Selection Plugin
Geeklog Usage Plugin
Ban Plugin

I guess if we want to stay with Mercurial the obvious choices is SourceForge
or Bitbucket.

Do we want to move to GitHub? I have never used it but Google seems to be
pushing that option.

BTW Nexpro can be found here:

http://www.nextide.ca/nexpro
http://code.google.com/p/nexpro/downloads/list

Are there any others we need to worry about?

Tom

"Beginning today, we have disabled new project creation on Google Code. We
will be shutting down the service about 10 months from now on January 25th,
2016."

I know there's a bunch of Geeklog-related code on Google Code. It would be
nice to rescue it and move it elsewhere. That includes code that is no
longer maintained, like the nexPro stuff.
