Want to help GNOME? Please port a module to GIO! See http://live.gnome.org/GioPort for instructions. I’d really appreciate a patch for librsvg (or any other not-yet ported module). Nautilus uses GIO. However, it still links against gnome-vfs and (one of?) the reason(s) is librsvg. Perhaps that is caused by other things as well. If so, please provide patches for those modules as well.
Note: Please keep the wiki page up to date. Just create an account and you will be able to edit it. Some modules might have been ported by the maintainer already (without the page being updated). If so, please update the wiki page as well.
CVS archive available at SVN archive
The conversion of the CVS archive is complete. All the archives CVS modules are now available at http://svn-archive.gnome.org/viewvc/. I’ve killed anoncvs.
Killing CVS archive, CVS website, possibly: anoncvs
The cvs.gnome.org site was still running. It is has been a year since the migration to SVN and the site is not maintained anymore. However, it still contained the CVS archive. Before killing the site I wanted to move the CVS archive into SVN. That is happening at the moment. You can follow the progress at http://svn.gnome.org/migration/status-recent.xml. I’ve already made the CVS website redirect to svn.gnome.org.
Another thing I want to kill anoncvs. It has been a year and I don’t like to run services that aren’t looked at. Unfortunately I cannot kill CVS completely as there are still some external users (cvs.rpm.org.. although it seems they switched to hg).
I’ve looked at other infrastructure tasks I still want to complete, but there isn’t anything I want to do atm. After 2.22 I plan to upgrade the svn.gnome.org machine to the latest Ubuntu LTS (has a newer SVN). The LTS will only be out after 2.22, and doing such a change just before a stable release wouldn’t be good for development.
