how your server is backed up? Then we should pay attention not to end u having multiple of sources around before we can deal with the mess this may create. We got the ok from inria for a webdav server (the problem was that from a security view point, having an anonymous write was a no go. So now we will do - write only inbox - inputs are then checked to be only .mcz - then automatically copied to a readonly inbox - pharo* projects should be read and write for the people registered to the forge.
Great, this is only for Pharo or you want to mirror also Squeak projects ?
We do not know. For now at least the Pharo* repositories and the ones that are central XML-.... Ideally I would prefer to have everything in the same place and we have no problem hosting squeak projects. Now what is more important is build a kind of process to clean projects, there are a lot of projects which got created but - were never really used - are students code exercises So may be starting with a metacello config for every working one could be a start. The problem is that you lose all the nice aspects of squeak-source: UI to manage the commiters..... So we should check with the effort of dale and philippe and others on the gemstone version of squeaksource. Stef
