[sakai-pmc] PROPOSAL: svn cleanup

Hi all,

The main Sakai SVN (https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/) currently holds a number of deprecated / out of date projects including:

blog
discussion
db
hybrid
jcr
mini
osid
pure-poms
release-mgmt
samples
sdata
site-association
svn-admin
triples
ux
was
wsrp

There exists a space in the contrib SVN (https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/deprecated/) that was created for these retired projects to live and grow old.

This proposal is to rationalise the main SVN to move projects that are no longer part of the core distribution to the deprecated space in contrib. All of those in the above list will be moved. Some have already moved but duplicates exist in the main svn. These will have their dupes removed from the main SVN.

There are also these two projects that are institution specific and appear to be unmaintained:

gradtools
oncourse

If the owners (IU?) need these two to stay in the main SVN, it is fine for them to stay otherwise they will also be moved.

This kind of maintenance will reduce confusion and assist with any possible repository move that may occur in the future.

This will have no impact on trunk or any currently supported release.

A material objection (indicated by a -1 and accompany reasoning) raised by a Sakai PMC member will block this proposal.  Other opinions are welcome, indeed encouraged. Silence equals consent. Discussion should be on the sakai-dev list unless of a private nature in which case I am happy to correspond off list. Objections must be received before Monday 16th December 2013.

regards,
Steve
