Moed Debian Jr. repository to Alioth



http://syn.theti.ca/articles/2007/04/08/moved-debian-jr-repository-to-alioth

A little remembered fact is that the Debian Jr. project had a directory
in the subversion repository of the CDD project at Alioth. Aside from
Andreas Tille’s experimental conversion of Debian Jr. to use cdd-dev[1],
there was nothing else there until today.

While I was in the process of populating this directory with the
junior-* metapackages and adding an external reference to the live CD
config, it seemed to me that it would be better to move the whole thing
to our own repository at Alioth, which I promptly did. So now you can
check it out:

              $ svn co svn://svn.debian.org/debianjr

As well, I registered Debian Jr. at http://cia.vc/ and configured svn
so that the CIA bot will report on the #debian-jr channel at
irc.debian.org for every commit.

And finally, I applied for the creation of a
debian-commits@lists.alioth.debian.org list. As soon as the list is
created, I will hook it up to the repository so you can subscribe to
commit emails.

[1] Although this seemed like a good idea at the time, for various
reasons I ended up sticking with the single metapackage per category
model Debian Jr. uses to this day. But I have retained this experiment
in the repository under
svn://svn.debian.org/debianjr/branches/EXP-cdd-dev in case we ever
reverse that decision.
