Hi Eric! ;)

1. Well, you certainly have an interesting setup there - it's similar
to something I was thinking we would have to do. I use OS-X and am
*very* aware of what's needed to get mod_python and postgres working on
that platform ;) - at the moment I'm using the development server, and
that works fine for me. Of course, there's the problem with media etc -
but I can cope with that.

Most of our guys use Windows, so installing fedora is going to be a
problem for them - I may have to think about getting a LAMP
installation for them under Windows (or convert them to OS-X ;)

2. svn looks like the right thing to use, and as I said in my reply to
Julio, there's going to have to be some lateral thinking there to use
it best advantage. We're currently using bugzilla for tracking
(integrated into Zope and we weren't aware of trac at the time - that
only came through django) but frankly, I hate it - it's written in Perl
which means that only a few people can do anything with it, which means
we don't do anything with it...

3. that's a new one on us ;) (although Julios' comment on using pylint
is very interesting)

4. our staging server is basically our development server, and we use
ZSync to update onto the production server. It's a full copy of the
development server.

5. I like the idea of being able to svn to the development box (with
real version numbers - difficult to do with Zope!) and we have oodles
of experience with Apache.

I really like trac, we're going to be installing that, svn, django and
other stuff onto this box over the next week. My main concern is
bringing the team up to speed with using version control (we thought
that 'versions' in Zope would do the same thing - you'll know that it
doesn't work like that Eric!) and getting used to working in a
different way. Our sysadmin is probably going to have kittens (I've
messed with his mind a hell of a lot over the last six months) but he's
a canny lad and likes playing with new toys - and setting up great
arrangements that have high reliability and resilience is something
he's extremely good at.

Many thanks to Tom, Julio and Eric - I'm really pleased that other
people who have teams using django have found ways that work for them.

I'll let the group know what we get up to...

Cheers,
Tone
