perl-ldap 0.35?

Hi!

I'd like to ask, are there any plans to release new version from svn
repository? There are many (for me mandatory) changes, which would be
good to have by simple package upgrade...

I know it has been too long :(

I have recently changed jobs and am now self-employed. The transition =20=

has been taking a lot of my time.

Because of this I do not have much time to test, but if people can =20
confirm that there are not issues with what is in the repository then =20=

I will cut a release from what is there now.

As a side note, I do not want to start a flame war, but I would like =20
to get people feedback on changing the repository to be a git =20
repository instead of svn. I think it would make it easier for others =20=

to contribute and those contribution to be integrated into the =20
repository.

I hope that's all good news...

That's sensible.

Git would work OK for me. Does the web site generate itself =20
automatically out of git as well as svn?

Yes, it was a decision of my own, not forced :-)

Done.

Yes, there is a web frontend for git. See http://git.kernel.org/
gitweb.cgi?p=git/git.git;a=summary for the git project itself

Well, it's solved now: 0.35 is on CPAN.
Thanks!

It's OK with me.

I always wanted to know more about git, but was too lazy.
If perl-ldap switches to git, I have a real incentive to
get myself acquainted wit git.

Will this change also affect the other modules Auth::SASL,
Convert::ASN1, ...?

I meant that the process that generates the HTML content for
ldap.perl.org is driven by changes to the subversion /website
repository, the one we always forget to update after a release ;-)

Whatever does that will need to be git-ified.

Cheers,

Chris

No that will not change. That is a separate repository hosted by
perl.org. subversion is the method that perl.org support for updating
websites.

Yes, when I make the switch, it will likely be all my repositories.

There are still a few things to sort out though, so it may be a while
before I switch.

For one, the git protocol has no authentication. So I either need to
create accounts for all users you have permissions to update the
repository. Or change my model to be like that of the git project.
The model they, and many others use, is that a contributor either has
a repository they make accessible that the lead person pulls patches
from or they mail patches which the lead person applies. Git has a
method for mailing patches but still preserving the contributor when
applied.
