[Vtigercrm-developers] vtigerforge

[Richie]

Hello Team!
Good to know that we have an active discussion on here.
Mike and myself had discussed using gforge and it is a beast to work with.

As we are all working on this together, Mike has volunteered to get the
forge running. The easiest to get to work was the current one he is using.
Having said that, we had also asked for earlier suggestions for forge but
we did not get many easy to use systems.

Mike, on his own initiative found out the current solution and has done 
admirably till now.

I would suggest that we get the forge up and running and then we can always
move to svn or some better system that comes along in due course of time.

I would request whoever can help Mike to please stand up and raise their hands
so that it takes off some load off Mike.

Please note, it is a question of convenience right now and we have to make do 
with what we have. On hindsight, it always seem better to have a  different 
solution but that is 'after' things have happened. When we needed a solution,
we did not get any and Mike happened to make one work. So why not proceed with 
it?

Fahi, I do understand your point and Sak was just pointing out the facts that
had occured before you joined the list. We are in this together and there is 
no sole ownership. We just chip in whatever we can, whenever we can.
Mike has high regards for everyone over here and we actively look forward
to help Mike out with the cvs/svn. Mike has a free hand there.

Mike can appoint whoever he wants to appoint to help him. He just needs to keep
us guys updated. 

So, looking forward to Mike's forge getting GA!

In Mike +!

Richie
