Just a personal request, but I would like a permanent URL that points to the in-progress commit page and is only changed when the commit fest of _over_. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce(a)momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

If you want a permanent redirect, how do you expect it to behave when we are between commitfests? Speaking of the issue of navigating between commitfests, I agree that this could use some love. I mentioned to Alvaro over IM that I was thinking about adding a navigation bar at the bottom of each commitfest. This would show, e.g., for the current July commitfest: << Previous commitfest | Current commitfest | Next commitfest >> 2008-05 2008-07 2008-09 [closed] [current] [open] I'm still pondering a way to add this that would require minimal ongoing maintenance, but I wanted to gauge interest before investing too much more headspace into it. Is this something that you guys would find valuable?

I thought that commitfest-by-wiki was something that we were only doing until we had the technical requirements for tracking commitfests nailed down, and then we were going to write a PHP app. No? --Josh -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Where are these rules posted? Personally, *I'm* not clear on them. And I'm supposed to be the coordinator. --Josh -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Management of patches is a contentious issue, and any kind of consensus in this area seems to be elusive. I figure we might as well make the wiki comfortable in the meantime. What I'm saying is, I've got the opportunity and the inclination to make the wiki more usable. If you guys want better navigation, there's a suggestion on the table to improve that. I'm not too worried about the wiki eventually being ditched for something better -- in fact I'm looking forward to it.
