Does anyone want to be the new maintainer?

[LordVader]

I've been watching the progress for a while of javaops and using it for a while also, I had setup a rcrs server right before the last changes to the checkrevision we're made on a freebsd machine.
It's a shame to see that iago's time is consumed to the point of no longer maintaining it himself..

Hdx and Joe, let me know if you guys need mirror's or anything for the cvs server to help with server load etc..
Also the main javaop.com page once things get settled would be good to have a perm maintainter have access to post updated plugin links etc..

I am willing to "help" maintain the code with updates and things as they are needed, my main background is c++, php, perl, html/css etc.
I've worked with and edited the plugins for javaops for my own needs a bit so I can help but I don't know nearly enuff java to be the head maintainer or anything like that, willing to learn tho.

Anyway PM or IM me to discuss details, info to contact me is in my profile.

[Joe]

Oh, I doubt the project is so successful my home dialup couldn't handle the server load.

It looks like we're leaning towards CVS! I think we can agree on Eclipse for our editor, since it's cross-platform, supports CVS internally, and is just bitchin' in general.

Hdx, get us a CVS set up and the pwntasticism will begin.

PS: I'm bored. I'm going to start porting some of Lockdown back to C and see what I figure our. Warz seemed kind of faithful that I could figure it out if I put time and energy into it.

[Hdx]

Joe, you are a moron, but I believe you can reverse lockdown.
From what I have been told, and what I have found.
Its not REALLY that complicated.
As for the CVS, did anyone try the server I said?
If not then I failed and will have to try again, or ask Fapiko if i can host a server off his nix box.
As for Eclipse, I'ma stay way from that. IMHO I don't like it. So i'ma stick with vim/notepad2

The CVS doesn't work for me

Code: [Select]

chuck@ToyBox:~/Desktop/JavaOp2$ cvs -d :pserver:cvsuser@Hdx.JBLS.org:/JavaOp login
Logging in to :pserver:cvsuser@hdx.jbls.org:2401/JavaOp
CVS password: [JavaOp]
cvs login: authorization failed: server Hdx.JBLS.org rejected access to /JavaOp for user cvsuser
I have minimal knowledge of CVS though. It may be an error on my part.

I don't like eclipse much either. I just use KDE's kate, or on my mac, NetBeans.

Connects but fails trying to pull the sources from path info being /src/master also fails with /
What is the default repository path for that account?
under javaop.com's cvs it is:
/src/master

cvs admin reference:
http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2002/01/17/cvsadmin.html

[Joe]

@Hdx, you program with what you want, I'm just saying that Eclipse has built in CVS support, built in compiling / error reporting, autocompletion, and syntax highlighting just to name a few things.

Also, thanks on the moron comment. It's coming along easily, but I'm sick with 0 attention span right now.

Try this for the CVSROOT

Code: [Select]

:pserver:anonymous@www.javaop.com:/src/master
EDIT:
Woops, noticed your talking about the one hdx set up.

[LordVader]

@Chuck: Yeah sorry i should of been more clear about that

ugh hopefully i didnt fuck it up
UN: cvsuser@goliath
Pass: JavaOp
repos: JavaOp
Server: Hdx.JBLS.org
~Hdx

repos: /JavaOp <-- is the repository path, figured that out should of been obvious to me.

Still having issues logging in tho, eclipse rejects cvsuser@goliath as the username, wants to only accept cvsuser and i would assume @goliath is the machine name?
Possibly need to change the admin settings for that to be the ip or domain hdx.jbls.org?

Has anyone else been able to connect and pull the source, or tried with eclipse and had similar problems?

[Joe]

Username: cvsuser
Password: javaop
Repository: /JavaOp
Server: hdx.jbls.org
Protocol: pserver

The stuff isn't in there yet, but that's the details.

I'll hook up with Hdx later (ew..) and work on getting the stuff in there for you guys, then we can get back to work!

By the way, I'm still staying on the project.

[LordVader]

@Joe good to hear that you're staying with the project, and thx for the clarification on the login info.

[Joe]

I work 12-8 tonight, and I'm playing WoW until 10:30 or so, showering, and leaving. Hopefully Hdx will be around when I get back (shoot for 9 CST?) and we can get it in there tonight.

[LordVader]

-bump-
Any progress?
Checked a few times login is fine just nothing in the repository yet.

Also have you guys thought about putting the project onto sourceforge?
That would provide cvs, website and such.
There is also 2 or 3 other sites that have poped up similar to sourceforge that use different backends for version control.
If you're interesting just google "version control" also can check out http://bazaar-vcs.org/ seems promising.

[Hdx]

you are able to login fine? Try uploading some shit.
My CVS Server is being faggish.
Seriously once we get a CVS server up.. and get this going, I will be happy.
And why the fuck can't we use Ron's?
As for using SF, I would prefer to use one of our servers.

[chuck]

And why the fuck can't we use Ron's?

Yah, why go through all this trouble when theres already a working CVS server for JavaOp2?

Either works for me, maybe iago could make a mirror of his current repository on a different port and let joe/hdx add their changes/fixes and commit the changes?

@Hdx im not fimiliar enuff to say for sure but I believe their needs to be a default module(already existing) even if nothing is really there just a empty text file anything.. Who ever has admin priv's on the cvs to setup things is the ones who need to do it.

But to my knowledge their needs to be something existing for us to check out -> alter -> commit, then who ever is the admin/maintainer can commit perm, or create branches etc..
I maybe wrong tho i'm not a cvs expert i'm trying to figure it out learning here to.

I will be setting up cvs on a linux virtual machine on my spare pc to play around tho so I will know by monday/tuesday or so (easter holliday etc.) and will post back if no body else get's this sorted out with exactly how to get it started...

Hopefully someone else closer to the actual source files will take the innitiative and get it sorted out before then.
