Description Mikaël Barbero CLA 2018-08-30 08:42:19 EDT
Per http://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13111, move of repo https://github.com/mbarbero/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform to CBI has been approved. 

What's the next step? Should I transfer the repo to webmaster? or to eclipse-cbi organization directly?
Comment 1 Mikaël Barbero CLA 2018-08-30 08:59:28 EDT
cc'ing persons who have opened PR to the original repo.
Comment 2 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2018-08-30 09:26:19 EDT
Normally for repos that are outside of the Eclipse organization on Github the process is:

1) Get a CQ approved for the code
2) Squash the history
3) Add Webmaster to the repos admin team
4) Webmaster moves the repo into the Eclipse organization.

In this case since you are already part of the eclipse-cbi organization, and you have an approved CQ I think it's ok for you to try and move the repo directly provided the history has been squashed.

If it doesn't work, let me know and we can follow the standard process.

-M.

I declare the move successful! https://github.com/eclipse-cbi/targetplatform-dsl
Comment 4 Mario Pierro CLA 2018-08-31 05:28:19 EDT
Great, thank you! Should the old update site URLs still work? If not, what are the new ones?

http://mbarbero.github.io/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform/p2/ currently results in a 404 error.
Comment 5 Mikaël Barbero CLA 2018-08-31 05:37:10 EDT
No, the old update site cannot work anymore (because both the renaming and the transfer of the repo do not handle the github pages redirect: https://help.github.com/articles/renaming-a-repository/ and https://help.github.com/articles/about-repository-transfers/). I will need to find a new place for these (as I cannot put the bits on Eclipse's download area). I will do a new release shortly containing a fix for the compatibility with Photon.

Done. I've uploaded old repositories to bintray:

https://dl.bintray.com/mbarbero/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform/

I've also added a note to the README with the following text:

This project has been transfered to the Eclipse CBI project on August 31, 2018. As such, the previous repositories are not working anymore. If you still want legacy versions of this project, please use one of the following two URLs:

https://dl.bintray.com/mbarbero/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform/ or
https://dl.bintray.com/mbarbero/fr.obeo.releng.targetplatform/latest

Is there a p2 repo available at Eclipse.org?

Where to report bugs? I want to report a bug / feature request for the target platform definition editor - what is the right place/project to do so?
