Here are the next steps: - We will officiall stay in a "testing" phase for one week, until Wednesday, 09 April. Please, everyone, have a good look around and report any problems. - Subversion is now read-only, meaning you have to commit your changes to Git. - If there are problems, we might have to fix them by rewriting Git history. This means that every clone of the repository will stop updating and you will *need* to take action to keep collaborating. Any such news will be announced here and on the wiki: https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/GitMigration#Important_information - Go ahead and migrate your dependencies now, from Subversion to Git. Please keep the old scripts around though, just in case we do have to rollback. I don't expect this to be necessary, but then again I didn't think Subversion sucked *that* much until actually migrating today. - We'll turn off access to Subversion in approximately one month. > If you need help, don't hesitate to ask on the #debconf-team > channel.

There's been one minor change to the process: all accounting data from previous years (e.g. receipts, invoices, scans) have been moved to dcX-accounting-data repositories. The goal is to continue this practice. However, accounting process information, scripts, documentation, whatever, should continue to live in the main team directory. Now enjoy. I can't believe we put up with Subversion for this long. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madduck@debconf.org> : :' : DebConf orga team `. `'` `- DebConf14: Portland, OR, USA: http://debconf14.debconf.org "reife des mannes, das ist es, den ernst wiedergefunden zu haben, den man hatte als kind beim spiel." -- friedrich nietzsche
