Repositories exist on [url=http://github.com/worlddevelopment]worlddevelopment github[/url] only if it fits into one of the following categories:
 
* club matters
 
* selection / collection of repositories (e.g. like the GVCS 50 of the OSE US but consistent, more flexible/forkable and version controlled). This is just a complementation to the Wiki that allows to add, remove all released modules of a category at once. For getting an overview of which projects are in development one should ideally get a good overview via the [url=http://wiki.opensourceecology.de/Spezial:Kategorien]category listing on the Wiki[/url].if every project on the Wiki is tagged extensively. (Currently it is inconsistent and incomplete.)
 
 
The repositories are collected from any eco github organization or eco individual across the world (as long as it is a hosted project, e.g. Git or 0install or a UNIX distribution package).
 
  
It must be admitted that worlddevelopment is not consistently using 0install for dependency handling as of now. Sometimes it is still using Git submodules which is deprecated because it is no dependency handling at all and does not allow to define a compatible version range but only one and exactly one commit.

A project may be structured as follows:


Repository

  • Version control of development files.
  • Distributed development.
  • Automatic backups (due to existing on several systems of distributed developers / users).
  • Integration with a versatile release and dependency tool.

Wiki

  • Documentation
  • Guidance, e.g. a very short outline of useful functionality modules. The wiki is a better place than base repositories because such a collection is
    • subjective,
    • context dependent, e.g. eco focus versus gigantism focus, and
    • prone to incompleteness (new module created without knowing of it)
    • hard coded
    • or a movement may want to link to a certain eco-flavored fork of a base module giving the reader guidance in what repository / release to install.
    • Somehow a connection must be created between Wiki and repositories. And such eco modules listings are one possiblity for achieving that.
  • Tagging: The projects' documentation/guidance is tagged using Wiki categories in accordance with the categories listed in the module's feed XML (if using package manager 0install for release distribution). This is slightly redundant but necessary because the wiki lists not yet released projects and may serve as an overview to many people (mostly developers) while searching for released projects should be done using the cross platform package manager.

Forum

Each wiki links to this forum topic for

  • news / announcements all in one location without having to create a new website for each and every project / module.
  • general discussion (while topic specific discussion for reference in commit messages goes into Github issues).
