NewProjectForm

New Project Form

The following is intended to be a standard form for helping to setup a new project. It is based upon the one used earlier by Ted Leung.

Not all entries will be valid. For example, in almost all cases only the -dev mailing list will be created during incubation. It would be rare to also create a -user list for a new project.

The $TLP PMC has agreed to accept the $PROJECT project for incubation. To aid in the process, please create these below:

[1] Mailing List (i) addresses {{{ I. $PROJECT-dev@$TLP.apache.org

• II. $PROJECT-user@$TLP.apache.org III. $PROJECT-cvs@$TLP.apache.org }}}

(ii) remote moderators ... (iii) archives {{{ mbox

1. http://$TLP.apache.org/mail/$PROJECT/dev/YYYYMM.gz II. http://$TLP.apache.org/mail/$PROJECT/user/YYYYMM.gz III. http://$TLP.apache.org/mail/$PROJECT/cvs/YYYYMM.gz }}}

(iv) options {{{ I. Reply-To: Header [X] yes [ ] no

• NOTE: $PROJECT-cvs@$TLP.apache.org -> $PROJECT-dev@$TLP.apache.org

• II. Prefix in Subject [ ] yes [X] no III. Eyebrowse [X] yes [ ] no IV. Moderation Message [X] short [ ] long V. Message Trailer [X] yes [ ] no
  • (a). $PROJECT-dev@$TLP.apache.org }}}

[2] Source Tracker (i) CVS Module {{{ /home/cvs/$TLP-$PROJECT/

• /home/cvspublic/$TLP-$PROJECT/ }}}

or

(ii) SVN      '''Greg, Sander, et al ... please fill in''' 

[3] Initial Committer list

...

[4] Issue Tracker (i) Bugzilla URL: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=$PROJECT

or

(ii) Scarab      '''John or DLR ... please fill in''' 

or

(iii) Jira {{{ per-separately releasable package

• Project Name: Project Lead: Preferred Project Abbreviation(s): A list of Jira accounts to mark as project developers
• ..

  [if necessary, provision can be made to have admins list different from developer list] }}}

As an example, although Jakarta Commons is a single CVS module, each project would be a separate Jira project, although sharing a common permissions schema.

Once the shell is setup, the project will be responsible to setup its own components, versions, etc.
