Hello everyone,
TL;DR: as announced previously [1], since today LAVA development happens on git.
Some points I would like to highlight:
- Please do not send bzr merge proposals against the old bzr repositories on Launchpad. In the next days those repositories will be closed down (assuming that's at all possible - any tips appreciated) to make it impossible for people to send those.
- The procedure for submitting changes to LAVA is now using the gerrit instance at staging.review.linaro.org, which should be available as review.linaro.org at some point in the future. As mentioned previously, we are dogfooding the system before providing it as an official service for the wider community, so bear with me and please let us know of any problems or questions you might have.
Documentation for staging.review.linaro.org is available at: https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/LAVA/Infrastructure/StagingReview
- the source for source code is git.linaro.org, under the lava/ namespace.
As we already discussed, the LAVA team will be actually using staging.git.linaro.org as part of the aforementioned dogfooding exercise. However we configured sync on push in the lava repositories so that git.linaro.org and staging.git.linaro.org will always contain exactly the same code.
- Launchpad is still used for bug management. Please continue submitting bugs there.
- Unrelated to the move to git, you will notice two important changes in LAVA that I think it's useful to mention:
The first change is that now we have a new theme[2] which IMO makes LAVA look a lot nicer. It's not a designer's job, but is an improvement. ;-)
The second change is that now every LAVA instance hosts full documentation _generated from the actual code it is running_, linked from the "Documentation" link in the top menu[3]. It's still the same old documentation we had before on .readthedocs.org, but this is just the first visible step of the effort the LAVA team is putting in the documentation area. Expect exciting news about this in the future.
