Re: [rt-pmc] Gemini Subprojects

Isn't this what Virgo *is* doing?

The EDP supports the ability to include some subset of the project code in a release. So, releasing de facto components separately is acceptable. My only concern is community confusion, which is probably not a big issue in this case.

The IP logs are more of a technical issue. The current infrastructure works on a project-basis. I can update the scripts to run against some subset of the repositories and some subset of the bugzilla records (assuming you can form a coherent query for the records that affect a particular release). Automating the extraction of information from CQs is a little harder and will require baking some means of categorizing CQs into IPZilla.

But it all sounds doable.

In the meantime, IP Logs will have to be manually managed. Perhaps it might be time to resurrect the work that I was doing on Woolsey; it was designed specifically to help with the process of manually updating/managing IP Logs. I haven't looked at it in a while, so this may be less viable than I hope...

So in other words if we had a single Gemini project, I think you should still be able to release Gemini Web and Gemini Blueprint as independent releases from this one project.

Virgo has a similar requirement. We'd like to be able to release the runtime, the tooling, and the samples independently of each other.


Not so sure about IP Logs. I think it probably really hard to manage multiple IP Logs for one project. Still couldnt you submit the whole IP Log once you try to release any of the components ?

That would be a little messy as it would be necessary to trim down the IP log to the parts required. This would potentially require a concentrated piece of work at release time, whereas the IP log today can be maintained incrementally and just tidied up at release time, which is more manageable.

[rt-pmc] Gemini Subprojects



At the last RT PMC call there was discussion of Gemini's subproject structure. Recently, one of the subprojects temporarily had no committers and the thought was expressed on the call that this could perhaps be avoided in future by amalgamating the Gemini subproject committers into a single ACL. Presumably this would require amalgamating the subprojects into one.

I spoke to Mike Keith about this and it seems that it is necessary to keep the subproject structure so that individual subprojects can be released independently of each other (which is essential). For example, the subproject structure enables IP logs to be managed and approved separately.

So is the conclusion that we can't amalgamate the ACLs without losing the ability to release subprojects independently of each other?

Glyn
