The conclusion of the discussion we had last week was that we want to get a
statically generated website - based on the same tooling and ASF
integration tooling as https://github.com/apache/comdev-site is. We will
eventually make it available at eu.communityovercode.org and (secondary)
goal of that is to make it a nice starting point for future other
communityovercode sites (NA one is currently run via wordpress). Some of
the committee members are particularly keen on transparency and
archiving/inclusivity, so rather than creating a repo outside of ASF (which
is an option) we thought the best will be to get a repo in the "apache"
organisation.
From the JIRA ticket https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-24741 - if
we were to use INFRA supported GitHub repos (under the apache/
organisation) we need a "project" to host it and Rich suggested that
instead of creating a new one we could do it via comdev.
Yes, any event website source should definitely be stored in an ASF repo
(i.e. svn or on github under 'apache').
On the infra ticket it was mentioned that VP Conferences could be the
owner if they created an LDAP group, which is the "most appropriate"
place to host the content, since the VP Conferences is in charge. But
it might be simpler to manage if we used this PMC instead - although
that requires some consensus from this PMC first to own something that
really belongs to conferences.
One note: do you *specifically* want to copy the ComDev site repo? Or
do you want to start with the infra-supported (but simpler design)
template repo they recommend for new projects?
https://github.com/apache/template-site
https://template.staged.apache.org/
We have some specific requirement re: access to the repository. We are not
a typical PMC where we have committers and PMC members. We are cooperating
with a producer company (Software Guru) and rather than merging their PRs
we would rather (especially at the crucial times before the event) want to
give them direct "push" access and capability of merging PRs.
So my question is:
* has something like that been done before?
* is this possible for comdev projects to have such repos
(apache/comdev-commovercode-eu) with external people access ?
No. AFAIK any direct write access to /apache repos can only come from
ASF committers who have signed an ICLA. But that's solvable for a
special case like this, by having an officer or PMC simply agree to
invite those outside individuals at Software Guru to be committers here.
Note also that individuals can be made committers, not companies.
