Place for userland swsusp parts

Place for userland swsusp parts

[Pavel Machek]

Hi!

Is there some place where we could  put userland swsusp parts under
version control?

swsusp.sf.net looks like possible place, but it has been in use by
suspend2... Is it still being used? If not, would it be possible to
"hijack" it for swsusp development?

It's not still being used (we have suspend2.net now). The only problem I see 
with that is that it still has all the old suspend2 stuff and Sourceforge 
make it really hard to clear out a project's files. You were talking about 
calling it uswsusp or something like that. How about starting a 
uswsusp.sf.net?

Rafael, do you have repository to place userland parts in, or should I
start uswsusp.sf.net project, or do you want to do it?

I think I can host them (the box is moving tomorrow, hopefully, so it should get
enough bandwidth ;-)), but I'm afraid I won't have time to set up a mailing list
etc.

IMHO uswsusp.sf.net would be too similar to swsusp.sf.net, especially that
swsusp.sf.net is redirected to www.suspend2.net.

Actually, it would probably be better to put it on sourceforge or
something like that. That way you don't have to care about sysadmin
stuff (mailing lists etc), backups, backup conectivity, etc, etc.

Or maybe we can get hosting on suspend2.net? Or create
userswsusp.sf.net (that name is ugly :-().

...some revision control would be nice, but perhaps revision control
is enough and we can just put git tree on kernel.org?

I can put a "were you looking for uswsusp.sf.net?" on the suspend2
page if it came from swsusp.sf.net :)

suspend2.net's bandwidth isn't too cheap, so most of the web traffic
is funneled out to mirrors. Getting mirrors to update vhosts can
take some time. sf.net would probably be quicker!

Agreed.

suspend.sf.net seems to be available.  We can use it, I think.

IMHO quilt will suffice to manage patches, at least for starters, but we'll
need a mailing list and an intro web page.

Ok. <evil>Or we can register suspend2.sf.net, and manage exchange for
swsusp.sf.net :-)))))</evil>

Well, we'll just get the kernel patch merged, so I don't see a need
for quilt. But we'll need some CVS/SVN/something for userland parts.

Do you want to register suspend.sf.net, or should I do it?
