3 Since a few weeks now, the OCamlCore Team is setting up a forge for the
4 OCaml community. A forge is a set of services for software projects,
5 including version control systems (CVS, SVN, ...), mailing lists, download
6 areas, bug tracking systems, ... Well known examples are sourceforge.net,
7 GNA, and Savannah. The forge for the OCaml community will be specifically
8 aimed at hosting software projects related to the OCaml programming
11 The forge is in good shape and is almost ready for the release. Before doing
12 so however we have just entered a beta-testing phase, that can help us to
13 check that everything works well before an official release.
15 We are therefore looking for people which:
16 * have a small experience with other forge
17 * have an OCaml project to start (or to migrate from somewhere else)
18 * are willing to collaborate with us to find out problems in the forge setup
20 Of course being a beta testing phase we are not yet willing to give
21 guarantees of any kind, but we do have backups :-)
23 So if you want to participate to the beta test of forge.ocamlcore.org,
24 sign-up for an account on <http://forge.ocamlcore.org>.
26 Then submit a project, stating into "Objectifs et description du projet"
27 that "Project will belong to the beta test of forge.ocamlcore.org". This is
28 for records and help us to be sure that project submitter is aware of the
29 "beta" status of the forge. For the moment we are *not* going to accept
30 projects which do not explicitly acknowledge the beta testing status of the
34 the OCamlCore.org team.
