[tools-pmc] Some Buckminster issues
|
Hi,
I've been asked by Matt Ward (see below) to get your approval for adding
anonymous http access to our SVN repository. Without it, people behind
firewalls that prevent the svn protocol cannot access our source or run
our demos. Can you please send an email to webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxx where
you request http access for /svnroot/tools?
Ideally, I'd like to have https access as well for our committers. This
is allowed on /svnroot/technology but for some reason Matt is reluctant
to allow it on /svnroot/tools. At present, Buckminster is the only
project in tools that are using SVN. Needless to say, we'd be willing to
take the risk since we think that the convenience that it brings in
setting up the client by far overweights the added security risk. So
from our standpoint, it would be very nice if you could request https
access as well.
And just a humble reminder. Buckminster is still not visible on the
www.eclipse.org/tools page.
Kind Regards,
Thomas Hallgren

Hi Thomas,
This is because by default we don't expose SVN via http/https. We
strongly recommend against using the https access method and it is
enabled for the technology project only because there are committers
behind a firewall that does not allow SSH connections. I can enable
anonymous browsing via http but that request really should come from the
Tools PMC.
-Matt.

Hi,
I'm no longer able to access the Buckminster SVN repository using http
and https. I'm not sure if that happened during the move from
technology to tools or if it happened during the last two days when I
encountered the other (SVNKit/JavaHL related) access problem.
Can you please check? I would like both http and https enabled if
that's OK.
Thanks,
Thomas Hallgren
