OLPC hosting application
1. Project name : 2. Existing website, if any : 3. One-line description : 4. Longer description : : : : 5. URLs of similar projects : 6. Committer list Please list the maintainer (lead developer) as the first entry. Only list developers who need to be given accounts so that they can commit to your project's code repository, or push their own. There is no need to list non-committer developers. Username Full name SSH2 key URL E-mail -------- --------- ------------ ------ #1 #2 #3 ... If any developers don't have their SSH2 keys on the web, please attach them to the application e-mail. 7. Preferred development model [X] Central tree. Every developer can push his changes directly to the project's git tree. This is the standard model that will be familiar to CVS and Subversion users, and that tends to work well for most projects. [ ] Maintainer-owned tree. Every developer creates his own git tree, or multiple git trees. He periodically asks the maintainer to look at one or more of these trees, and merge changes into the maintainer-owned, "main" tree. This is the model used by the Linux kernel, and is well-suited to projects wishing to maintain a tighter control on code entering the main tree. If you choose the maintainer-owned tree model, but wish to set up some shared trees where all of your project's committers can commit directly, as might be the case with a "discussion" tree, or a tree for an individual feature, you may send us such a request by e-mail, and we will set up the tree for you. 8. Set up a project mailing list: [ ] Yes, named after our project name [ ] Yes, named ______________________ [X] No When your project is just getting off the ground, we suggest you eschew a separate mailing list and instead keep discussion about your project on the main OLPC development list. This will give you more input and potentially attract more developers to your project; when the volume of messages related to your project reaches some critical mass, we can trivially create a separate mailing list for you. If you need multiple lists, let us know. We discourage having many mailing lists for smaller projects, as this tends to stunt the growth of your project community. You can always add more lists later. 9. Commit notifications [ ] Notification of commits to the main tree should be e-mailed to the list we chose to create above [ ] A separate mailing list, <projectname>-git, should be created for commit notifications [X] No commit notifications, please 10. Vhost setup [ ] Yes, set up a vhost for the domain _______________ pointing to our project website. [X] No, we don't have a project domain, or don't want to use one. We'll use the laptop.org website address. 11. Shell accounts As a general rule, we don't provide shell accounts to developers unless there's a demonstrated need. If you have one, please explain here, and list the usernames of the committers above needing shell access. 12. Notes/comments:
