Create a CubicWeb mirror repository on FOSSHeptapod

We want to have a mirror on https://foss.heptapod.net to use it as a public repo where people can add issues and/or propose MR. We will have to maintain the both repositories synchronized. To do so, let's push on foss.heptapod.net when we release a new version of CubicWeb, for now manually. We can talk later about a CI/CD rule to push automatically.

To have a dedicated group on foss.heptapod.net we will have to create an issue to let administrators checking if this is really a foss solution. The template for the issue is:

Description of the projects to be hosted

  • Project Name:
  • Project URL:
  • Project Maintainers:
  • Project License:

Please explain here how they meet our current criteria.

Main criteria

  • Free / Open Source
  • main development repositories
  • you are an official maintainer of the project
  • agreement to acknowledge where appropriate the help provided by Octobus and Clever Cloud by hosting on foss.heptapod.net

Additional information

Knowing this can help in case there are constraints on resources and/or administrators availability at the time of the request. It can also help us suggest the right solution for the needs of the project.

  • is the project officially released? In downstream distributions or packaging systems?
  • estimation of the user base if possible, or number of downloads, reverse dependencies…
  • number of maintainers and regular contributors
  • where is the project currently hosted? Are there issue trackers, review systems, CI/CD to hook to or to replace somehow?

Hosting type

What would you like to have?

  • a top-level group
  • a project in an existing group
  • just a project in your personal namespace
