    For our discussion. Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 682-2290; kriseberlein (skype) -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [chairs] Announcing support for use of Git/GitHub public repositories for TC work Date: Fri, 5 Aug 2016 17:14:44 -0400 (EDT) From: Robin Cover <robin@oasis-open.org> To: OASIS Chairs List <chairs@lists.oasis-open.org> In response to a growing number of member requests, OASIS Staff is now providing support for use of GitHub public repositories by TCs that need dedicated version control. Use of Git/GitHub will be supported in addition to, or in place of, a TC's Subversion (SVN) repository. These GitHub repositories for TC work will be configured using the GitHub default (simple) setup options that enable GitHub issues and the GitHub Wiki. The new offering is distinct from OASIS Open Repositories [5], which also use Git/GitHub, but are governed by open source licensing and separate contribution rules. The GitHub repositories for TC Members' chartered work are governed by the familiar OASIS policies which govern use of other TC collaboration tools, including a TC Wiki, a TC Subversion repository, a TC JIRA Issues Tracker, and a TC Kavi document repository (OASIS IPR Policy, TC Process etc.) References are provided below for the online request form and related documentation. Staff hereby extends a note of appreciation to the TAB, OASIS Board, and several TC Chairs who provided encouragement and feedback on rollout of this additional collaboration tool.

    Excellent news. I move that we transition our Subversion repository to GitHub as soon as reasonably possible.

    Eliot, I think we need to discuss pros and cons. We have some TC members who find SVN difficult; I don't want to eliminate their contributions by moving our work to GitHub. One possibility might be to use both SVN and GitHub, for example: SVN for committee notes GitHub for spec Best, Kris Kristen James Eberlein Chair, OASIS DITA Technical Committee Principal consultant, Eberlein Consulting www.eberleinconsulting.com +1 919 682-2290; kriseberlein (skype) On 10/10/2016 4:19 PM, Eliot Kimber wrote: Excellent news.
