Description Jussi Kukkonen [inactive] 2007-03-29 08:47:18 UTC
Name: GeoClue
unix-ish version: geoclue

brief description: GeoClue is a project that provides applications with a highly abstracted D-BUS interface to geography information services like positioning, geocoding and routing. A few backend implementations are included but more can be provided by other projects.

What services are needed:
 mailing list
 wiki
 svn
 
You'll probably need to setup also a first account that accepts the others? If that first account has some not-easily-transferable "owner" status, please let me know and I'll get a better person here. Otherwise just set it up for me:

real name: Jussi Kukkonen
preferred user name: jku
email: jhkukkon@cc.hut.fi
I'll attach my public keys soon

Anything else you need?

Hello sitewranglers,

It's been two weeks. Is there perhaps something missing from this request or am I just too impatient? If the former. please let me know. If the latter, please accept my apologies.

It seems I will have to pursue other venues for this (almost six weeks without a comment here)? This would be a shame, I think fd.o is a pretty good match for geoclue.

i've created the project, your account, a wiki, and the list.  we don't usually provide subversion, though: is either git (preferable), or cvs (fallback) suitable for your needs?

whee! Thank you. About svn: I had seen it on one freedesktop project and just assumed, sorry about that. I'll have to ask opinions on git/cvs issue, I'll get back to you.

Daniel, We discussed and decided that git is fine. Please do whatever magic is needed to get that online for us. Thanks.

...and git's already working like charm.


I was about to instruct another developer to get an account when I noticed that we should have a bugzilla product to do that (at least according to http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/AccountRequests)... Originally I thought getting a bugzilla product would be overkill at this point, but if it is the preferred way of handling new accounts: Could you open us a product in bugzilla (a 'general' component is enough)?

closing after talking to daniels (we'll just file new account bugs on product "fd.o")
