Description Wayne Beaton

2011-02-28 09:32:02 EST

The restructuring of Mylyn from tools.mylyn into a top-level project (see Bug 328383) is complete and all operations are occuring in the new infrastructure. It's time to close tools.mylyn.

I think that the only thing that needs to occur is deactivation of the committers in the old project. I believe that they have all been successfully moved to mylyn or one of it's subprojects.

Oh wait... there's more to this. We need to keep the old CVS and downloads areas alive for a while longer.

Let's hold on this until we get a go-ahead from Steffen.

Steffen, are we almost done with tools.mylyn?

I think we can now safely archive CVS. We have already decommissioned the user groups so as long as we can keep the files under download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn for a while longer I am happy to shutdown the old tools project.

Matt, can you please complete the shutdown of tools.mylyn?

Per comment #3, we'd like to keep download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn around for a while longer. I see that it's owned by the mylyn group, so I'm pretty sure there'll be no ill effects if we shut down tools.mylyn.

It looks like we're done here.

Just for reference, where did the old CVS location under /cvsroot/tools/org.eclipse.mylyn archived?

That's a good question.  Usually we leave the old VCS data for 6 months or so, but since it's not there I'm going to assume that I deleted it(although I don't recall doing so) in response to comment 4.  It's certainly available from our tape archive if we really need it back.

Okay, good to know. There were a few projects that didn't get converted since they are no longer part of Mylyn. I still have a copy of the CVS on build.eclipse.org that I'll put somewhere in case we ever want to resurrect that code.
