I'm not sure if this tree is the official repository or if https://bitbucket.org/wwmm/svg/ is? This is confusing to someone new to the project. There is also a duplicate issue tracker: https://bitbucket.org/wwmm/svg/issues?status=new&status=open . Are the issues in the bitbucket tracker also present in the github tree or were they solved when the project was, and I assume, migrated to github?

This issue affects multiple ContentMine components.

At time of writing:

I am not aware of any other public ContentMine repositories, but if anyone reading this is aware of any, do please note them in a comment below so that they can be pointed at the corresponding current repositories.

TODO: post a note (or HTTP redirect?) at every deprecated ContentMine BitBucket repository, pointing to the corresponding GitHub repository. @petermr, please can you give me access to the ContentMine BitBucket repositories so that I can edit them accordingly?

👍 for http redirect (if possible) This is such a good idea. I wish I'd done that when we migrated to github.

@sampablokuper do you have a bitbucket account?

ghost commented 7 years ago

@petermr yes: https://bitbucket.org/sampablokuper . Thanks!

Seems that at least some of the BitBucket repositories have wikis attached to them that have not been migrated to GitHub, e.g. https://bitbucket.org/wwmm/svg/wiki/Home .

These ought to be migrated to wherever ContentMine is to host its code for the foreseeable future. To avoid having to perform that migration more than once, I would like to reach consensus on #2 before expending effort resolving this issue (i.e. #5).

I have (I think) effective counterarguments for most or all of the reasons that have been given at #2 against moving to GitLab, and I think that overall, GitLab would be a big win for ContentMine. It will take me a little time to marshal those counterarguments and to post them at #2.

Responding due to automated ping @mjw99.

@sampablokuper Have I missed something here? The two examples that I quoted in the first comment in this ticket are still present, yet the ticket was closed.

No, you haven't missed anything that I'm aware of. Completely agree with you. @petermr appears to have closed this ticket (and several others) in error this morning. Re-opening accordingly.
