[MacRuby-devel] Lighthouse and GoogleGroup

[Laurent Sansonetti]

Hi Daniel,

This is a recurrent question. Our opensource projects are hosted on macosforge. If we want to switch to new tools they must be installed there, and ideally, the other opensource projects would also need to embrace them. So this is a difficult decision, so far Trac seems to fit for most of us. I cannot hide the fact that I hate it though :-)

As for the website, if you're interested in updating it the source is in the Subversion repository. We have a manual here: http://www.macruby.org/documentation/website-contributions.html. Currently nobody is really taking care of it, I just make sure to sync some info when doing releases.
