[Xymon] Re: Project direction and next steps - feedback requested

Hi, I am willing to help (unfortunately my C skills are at the "hello world" level, from university studies). My votes:

• rename (or duplicate) xymon-svn-mirror to xymon
• link the Xymon website to the new repo, instead of SVN/SourceForge
• incorporate the pending patches and publish a 4.3.31 (or maybe 4.3.32, since there's already a branch for .31) version, so we can also measure the interest
• enable github actions if anyone has experience to publish releases when a new tag is submitted
• either backport the needful from 4.4alpha or start testing fixes in there

Hi all,

Quick follow-up.

So far, there seems to be agreement that:

• 4.3 is the current production version.
• 4.4 is unfinished and experimental.
• The main blocker is the lack of a shared Git workflow.

To move forward, feedback is needed, and input from everyone is welcome. Feedback from long-time maintainers and contributors would be especially appreciated (JC Cleaver in particular; Henrik Storner is already involved).

In short:

• Who is willing to help?
• Is https://github.com/xymon-monitoring/xymon-svn-mirror a good place to move forward?
• If not, is there a better proposal (for example under https://github.com/xymon-monitoring)?
• What should be the next concrete step?

Short replies are perfectly fine.

Thanks, runo
