Re: Apple Opens Up: Kernel, Mac OS Forge, iCal Server, Bonjour, Launchd

This would be worth emailing Ernest about.  His statement below, from  
the original announcement on darwin-dev@apple suggests that  
MacOSForge.org would be available for OpenDarwin.org projects.   
Perhaps there is some mechanism that needs to be implemented yet, or  
perhaps we are missing something....

I just emailed Ernest the following bullet points:

(1) The mechanism for adding new projects, and whether commit access  
will be granted for accounts.

(2) A timeline for these services to come online (ie: certainly  
MacOSForge.org is a new site, so it is certainly understandable if  
things are taking time to get up and running).

(3) When clicking on http://collaboration.macosforge.org/ one is  
forwarded to http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/collaboration which  
seems to suggest that trac will be available for project management.   
Will this be the case?

I'm sure there are others.

I'm not sure if Ernest is a member of this list.  If he responds to  
my query, I'll forward his response to the list.
