GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 707805
Please add a git repository for gnome-break-timer
Last modified: 2013-09-12 10:49:48 UTC
I am working on GNOME Break Timer for my GSoC 2013 project. It's an application that helps people to take regular breaks. I'm just polishing it up now for a first stable release. At the moment, the source is hosted at https://github.com/DylanMcCall/gnome-break-timer. I'd like this to be hosted in a new git repository under git.gnome.org, with the name "gnome-break-timer". You can find out more about the project at https://wiki.gnome.org/SummerOfCode2013/Projects/DylanMccall_BreakTimer. Incidentally, I do not yet have a gnome.org git account. Should I request one? Project prerequisites: 1. Everything is licensed under GNU GPL 3.0 or later. 2. It's using Vala and GTK+3 (with many of the cool new toys in 3.10), and it has the usual automake setup seen in GNOME projects. The application communicates with GNOME Shell over dbus for some tight integration. 3. The project is maintained by me (Dylan McCall). I don't expect a particularly action-packed development cycle in the future, but I'm keeping it easily maintainable with unit tests and documentation. 4. To the best of my knowledge, GNOME Break Timer does not infringe on any patents. 5. Copyright assignment is not required.
The request looks good to me, would you mind getting your mentor to ack this request? Ideally you can request a new account at https://mango.gnome.org/new_account.php, from there select 'Git account' and the module that your mentor maintains. If your mentor doesn't maintain any module, just let me know who he is so I can mail him directly on the ticket and get a confirmation for this project.
I've imported the git repo for now: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-break-timer I assume Dylan should apply for a new account with the gnome-break-timer module?
