we took a step forward and now we have: - a name: archlinux32 - a domain: archlinux32.org - a collaboration on github.com: https://github.com/archlinux32
How were they chosen, and by who ? Did I miss something ? I've nothing against though.
I didn't want to be bold, but I just took initiative. Nothing of this has to be final.
If you feel, you have anything[1] to contribute, please send me an email with your account name on github.com and I'll invite you to the organization,
I'd like very much to participate as a maintainer, tester and infrastructure provider (if needed) as I have various i686 machines running arch, but I don't have any github account, and I'm not particularly thrilled about creating one for that.
Wouldn't be more appropriate to setup a git and to keep an infrastructure closer to Arch dev's one ?
archlinuxarm is maintained via github - this gave the idea. However, from a personal point I can understand the hesitation to create a github account. :-) In the end, one could think of cgit on our own server totally disconnected from github, but then we'd probably reinvent the wheel for tickets, discussions, and the like. Our case is closer to archlinuxarm than archlinux, so it seems to make more sense to copy from them.
so we can brainstorm and sort out details.
Isn't it the very purpose of this list to brainstorm and sort out details ?
true, but how detailed should the discussion herein become? Once we have a platform for git, tracking issues and discussing code lines, shouldn't we switch to that one? I thought, github would be a good platform for that - at least to start with. Or with other words: City-busz just put a proposal for a build-system on: https://github.com/archlinux32/builder/wiki/Build-system (it's readable for anyone, I hope)
My 2 cents…
They're welcome.
