-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Some of us have been having backchannel discussions of the idea of moving oVirt services to OpenShift, specifically: * WordPress (www.ovirt.org)[1] * MediaWiki (wiki.ovirt.org) [2] In the future I'd want to add Jenkins and mailman to that list, when/if they become possible/available.

The main idea is to off-load the infrastructure work - maintaining the server, network, OS, dependencies, etc. We'd have an easy way to share responsibilities to the services using git - OpenShift projects are maintained in git repositories, and when you commit a change, it updates the live website. We'd then be able to take in fixes as pull requests, or give direct key'd access to some people to work on parts of the infrastructure. What are some other reasons this is a good idea? What are some considerations that might make this a bad idea? We can discuss in tomorrow's meeting, but should make the decision on this mailing list. - - Karsten [1] https://github.com/openshift/wordpress-example [2] https://github.com/openshift/mediawiki-example - -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v. gpg: AD0E0C41 _______________________________________________ Infra mailing list Infra(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/infra
