iRex Community Development Help - Page 3

If all goes well, we should have parts (a content management system, trac and svn) of the community website up sometime next week.

Hopefully we can continue to work closely with iRex to make this project a reality and start making things come together.

Excellent news!

What will repo contain? Will we have access to sources they are currently working on? What role are they to play in this project?

There are a whole ton of questions that need answering but I guess this will be forthcoming in the new system?

I see it laid out as such:

iRex will provide source code releases for internal software when/where they see fit. That code will be organized by software release version.

From there, we can add new application sources and releases (community ipdf, fbreader, dillo, etc). This way the modified sources are available to all. New trunks can be created with modifications and enhancements.

It will all make sense when we get the ball rolling on this.
