Re: [swarm-hackers] Infrastructure for GSoC projects

[Haruka Matsuzaki]

Thank you for guidance, and nice to meet you.

This is my first experience in SoC and so is the OSS project.

I shall get lots to learn from your post. 

As you will expect, I have little knowledge about bug tracker and other tools shown here,

so I only mention my timezone for now. I live in Japan. GMT+9.

Then 24 hours are divided into 5, 8, 11, a beautiful kind unless it's not

hard to adjust our meetings.

Regards

Haruka

 Hi all.

 I want to discuss questions about technical infrastructure for GSoC
project. I don't found any information about previous year.

 From my previous experience for fruitful we need three pieces:
VCS repository for code, maillist for discuss and IM meetings.
 Some additional tools is: wiki and bug/feature tracking.

 Some of this things is project related, therefore i will describe my
project wishes and ideas (but this ideas would useful for Haruki)

1. VCS - i want to have there some distributed VCS like mercurial or
git. In previous year we use svn and i often have situation when i can
work on project but don't have Internet connection.
2. Mail List: As i know in previous year this maillist was used for
GSoC discussion and reports. I have only one question - why list
archive not available to public?
3. IM meetings. In previous year we scheduled two personal meetings
with mentor per week. And one IRC meeting per week for group
discussion (this meeting never happen). It is good to use ICQ/Jabber
and IRC for this.

 I don't think now that we need any wiki (separated from swarm) or
bugtracker. One next question is timezone - I'm live in Russian on
GMT+4.

PS: This is only my vision and conclusion from previous experience.
Any comments is good.
