I doubt that anything will happen anytime soon.Bugbear wrote: ↑Mon Dec 27, 2021 4:42 amWhat is the "product" in this scenario?
Who is the system custodian/owner?
Who is it that approves changes in functionality?
Who is responsible for implementing changes?
Who needs to be consulted when changes are being developed?
Who needs to be informed of changes made?
Do we have a bug tracker for logging incidents (i.e. things going wrong) and requests? (I would assume the answer to this is: Yes)
Does the bug tracker only cover the Oolite code base or can it be extended to track events related to supporting configuration items like the Wiki and Bulletin board? Do you even want to go down to that level of complexity?
We have 3 websites:
Oolite.org (for download of the game itself for 3 platforms (AppleMac, Windows & Linux) and in 3 versions (Vanilla, Test Release for .oxp developers & Nightlies).
This BB
Our Wiki.
(Oolite itself is stored on GitHub)
Oolite.org is owned by Jens Ayton (Ahruman) (entirely occultated): Phkb seems to have minor rights at least for registering oxp's.
This BB is owned by Aegidian (occultated): Disembodied and Cody exercise minor rights.
Our wiki is owned by Winston (occultated, living on the Isle of Man!): Maik has major rights, Selezen has minor rights (both also occultated - Maik disappeared in July in Slovenia).
I would hope that a_c_ has minor rights across the board, on the presumption that the owners (and Maik?) are the only ones with major rights.
Those who know about this sort of thing tell me that all our three sites need https rather than http registration (if that's the jargon...).
The last update of this bulletin board regained some lost functionality but led to loss of e-mail proclamations at "pm arrival" (ask Cody). This loss, needless to say, eats away at our community.
I'm not sure what else I can tell you. In terms of our community, I would argue that a_c_, phkb & cody are our leaders. I'm just a johnny-come-lately who vandalises wikis.
