Hi Jude,
Where does someone go to look into this further?
Thanks.

I mean both a piece of software and a person tasked first with a project
freeze. The person would go through the to do list and find out how each item
got on it and fix anything needing fixing based on current project status.
Once done a far clearer and more accurate to do list becomes available. Then
as many versions of project components will have to be checked to learn if
versioning was done on those components consistently and where that has been
done the manager can start building a repository based on consistent versioning
information. That will organize all of the components and locate components
with incomplete or missing versioning information. Those who wrote that stuff
are going to be asked for versioning information for those components which
will be edited into those components and those components will then join what's
in the repository. If what I read is correct, the project now is too
disorganized to use revision control software on it for now. Once organization
has been established and everybody is given a commit url to the revision
control system the freeze can then be lifted and development resume. However
the revision control manager's responsibility from that point forward in the
project is to make sure all log entries are filled out for commits in future
and to be able to check out existing previous versions of software when coders
make mistakes and perhaps had a computer accident of some kind and lost what
they were writing. During a freeze, revision control managers report to
project owners both on progress and copy project owners on inquiry messages
sent to project members about project components with revision control
projects. Probably just before the freeze is lifted, a thorough check of the
to do list needs to be done to correct any entries based on information gained
during the freeze process. Missing documentation connected to customizations
made by Vinux probably will be another problem which can be written and updated
during the freeze and checked in along with associated project components like
programs and configuration files.

Hi,
You mean a piece of software, not a person, right? Or do you mean a person?

Ouch! Apparently the Vinux Project also needs a revision control manager too.
I hope the project gets one in time to prevent the train wreck which is very
probably fast approaching otherwise.

Vinux needs people to work with the script, but right now development is really
unorganized. There is a sort of to-do list which has a lot of invalid points, and
apparently a "tutorial" has to be written for people to read the scripts taht
are there. I'd love to contribute to that, but it seems a bit of a pain since no one
knows what actually needs to be done.

Hay Storm,
I thought I read that the Blinux project needs shell programmers. Is
that correct?

Hi,
If this gets going I would like to teach. Maybe entry level shell
programming (Bash). sounds like a great idea.
Thanks
Storm
