Weekly report: week 26, so many questions
I spent this week designing and implementing the CVS integration. Fedora’s CVS is set up so that you can’t download the upstream source packages directly from the CVS. You first download a “sources” file from the CVS and then you can generate the URL where to download the .tar.{gz, bz2} files from. I documented the […]

Summercode Finland starts
This summer I’m taking part in COSS Summercode Finland 2007. I’ll be working on developing a man/info page wiki editor for the Fedora Project. The editor will be based on MoinMoin, the Python based wiki engine that is used by many Linux distributions and other open source projects. My mentor is Karsten Wade. I’ve also […]
