I added webdoublefx at gmail dot com.
Do we want to have a strict naming convention for the whiteboards and
restrict it to whiteboard_apacheid? What would be the pros and cons?
Yes for strict naming convention. No for restricting it to just
whiteboard_apacheid.
I would vote for a convention like: whiteboard_apacheid_projectname. With
GitHub, we get unlimited amount of space and unlimited number of repos.
There is no need to restrict ourselves to one repo per committer. I dont
see any pros with restricting.
Fred, do you want "_developerToolSuite" added to the name because you may
want a different whiteboard for a different topic later? Why is it hard
to
manage separate topics in folders in a single whiteboard repo?
I can think of a scenario where a committer forks the flex-sdk (example:
whiteboard_bigosmallm_flex-sdk) from the github mirror, make changes, get
some community involvement, etc. When all pull requests are resolved, a
simple patch can be generated and applied to our Apache git repo. This
workflow makes life so much easier.
Thanks,
Om
