Dev 2.0 @ OW2: from forge to distributed developer's services, OW2con'12, Paris
1 like330 views
The document discusses the evolution of development processes from integrated solutions like gforge to modern distributed systems and development as a service (DaaS). It highlights the shift towards social development practices enabled by tools like Git and the importance of community collaboration through features like fork, pull requests, and social notifications. Ultimately, it advocates for a unified, community-focused approach to enhance productivity, quality, and contribution in open-source projects.

- 3. The Ancient Ages When I was a child ...
- 5. GForge ● Objectweb was a forerunner ○ All in one integrated solution ■ CVS and a Web view ■ Bug Tracker ■ File management ■ Syndication ■ Mailing list ■ Role management ○ LDAP management
- 6. Up to now ● GForge enhancement ○ Moved from CVS to SVN ○ JSPWiki ● Progressive integration: ○ JIRA, Bamboo, Fisheye ○ XWiki ○ Gitorious ○ Nexus ○ Jabber
- 7. So far, so good ● Centralized workflow ○ I work in my place and commit to the reference ○ Project team is clearly defined ● But ○ Tools are scattered all around the place ■ Management became difficult ○ Tools are not unified (but sometimes are) ■ Multiple user account to manage ○ Contribution Wall too high
- 9. A New Hope The world has changed
- 10. Development is going "social" ● Introduction of DVCS ○ Git / Mercurial ○ Everyone has the source repository at home ○ Everyone can become the reference point ○ There can even be multiple "trusted" references ○ Workflow schema is open
- 11. Development is going "social" ● Clone / Fork ○ Fork is no more a swear word ○ More clone is better, means more contributors ○ Contribution re-integration (merge) is super easy
- 12. Development is going "social" ● Merge / Pull Requests ○ Working in isolation is great, but sharing is the final objective ○ Mean of contributing back without losing control or credit
- 13. Everyone wants to be friends ● Twitter / Facebook ○ Individually subscribe to sources of interest (other devs, ...) ● Recent tools incorporates a social aspect ○ Follow someone in a Wiki and be notified when he/she changes a page ○ Follow diverse activities ● There is no community, there are communities
- 14. Putting it all together One vision
- 16. Open-Source paradise Provides a better development experience Enhanced / faster feedback Efficiency, productivity, quality Easier contribution process Integrable
