2.   Description

Please provide a brief statement about your project in terms that are understandable to the target consumer of the library or project, i.e. an elevator pitch for the project: NuGet Trends holds historical data of NuGet packages download numbers.

For example, here's the download number graph of Newtonsoft.Json for the last 7.5 years..

It's a useful tool for package maintainers to see the download rate of their packages and also for people interested in packages popularity over time.

The database has the complete nuget.org catalog which include target framework information. That means that there's a lot more features we can add like TFM adoption overtime, dependency graphs etc.

Please provide a 1 sentence (<140 character) summary of your to help users when searching the .NET Foundation projects

Check out NuGet packages adoption and what's trending on NuGet.

Project Transfer Type

Projects may join the .NET Foundation in one of two ways and you should chat with your .NET Foundation contact to discuss the best mechanism for your project. You can either a) assign the copyright of the project's source code to the .NET Foundation or b) contribute the project source code to the .NET Foundation under an open source license. Assignment is the preferred approach, but licensing a project to the Foundation may be more appropriate for longer running open source projects that have not previously had a contribution license agreement and have accepted contributions from many different sources. a) Assignment b) Contribution

Assignment

4.   Repository Layout

The .NET Foundation host guidance for new projects and details on recommended structure here: https://github.com/dotnet/home/tree/master/guidance

Note that the open source repository should be the master where changes are made by the core development team using the same PR process that is used for non-committer contributions.

Please define below any changes you would want to make to your repositories as part of the process of joining the .NET Foundation

Current structure already matches the guidance.

5.   PR Plan

Please summarize the public relations plan for the announcement when joining the foundation (and releasing as open source if appropriate). What is the main story we wish to promote, through what channels, what issues should we be aware of?  For significant news events then please also work with your .NET Foundation contact to ensure a full PR plan is developed.

NuGetTrends has a twitter account. We plan to announce via twitter and also change the website to include the .NET Foundation logo.

6.   Infrastructure Requirements

Please describe any infrastructure requirements for the project. For example, how will build servers be operated? Any web hosting or service hosting requirements? Do we need to set up SSL certificates or provide Authenticode Code Signing arrangement for releases?

There are no special hosting requirements. Currently the project runs on docker on Linux. Infra is setup with DB backup jobs shipped to remote host, etc. Cloudflare terminates the TLS connection. The system at this time has no PII data. At the time no artifacts are publish nor NuGet packages are published to nuget.org so I believe no need for authenticode.

7.   Additional Notes

Please provide any additional information required or use this area for notes during the onboarding process. If this open source project has similarities with any other projects in this space then please detail them and why this project is different. If there are any potential issues that you feel the project might need help with early on then also state them here and discuss with your .NET Foundation Contact.

The checklist in the NuGet Trends repository is here.

[bruno-garcia]

@ChrisSfanos Thanks for driving this! Happy we're moving forward. Also, would it be possible to transfer the project to github.com/dotnet or github.com/dotnet-foundation so we don't need to keep that github.com/nugettrends org around? It's a single project: github.com/nugettrends/nuget-trends

[ChrisSfanos]

Seems reasonable, but @onovotny gets to make those calls

The next step is to configure the CLA bot - but if you are going to move the org, the steps vary slightly, so let's get that answered before I move forward with that

[bruno-garcia]

Hi @onovotny , would it be possible to transfer the repo? Thanks @ChrisSfanos, @onovotny

[clairernovotny]

@bruno-garcia yes, will do. Please grant me owner access to the repo so I can transfer it.

[bruno-garcia]

@clairernovotny Invite sent. Thanks!

[ChrisSfanos]

Looks like the repo is still under NugetTrends org right? If we are moving it to dotnet-foundation org, I'll wait on the CLA config

[bruno-garcia]

I opened the onboarding PR with the org NuGetTrends not to block anything. But I will open a follow up PR to change once @clairernovotny makes the a new org (until the github does a redirect anyway).

Thanks again folks to help phasing out that org.

[clairernovotny]

Hi @bruno-garcia I'm not seeing the invite?

[bruno-garcia]

@clairernovotny This is odd, I even double checked yesterday before writing that message.

I see this:

On https://github.com/NuGetTrends/nuget-trends/invitations

• I've just deleted and created it again.

[clairernovotny]

Looks like I can't transfer it without being either an org owner or unless you change the org setting to let members transfer repos:

[bruno-garcia]

TIL. Done:

[clairernovotny]

Should be all set now! https://github.com/dotnet/nuget-trends

[bruno-garcia]

Thanks a lot @clairernovotny !! Do we stay admins then even outside of the org?

[clairernovotny]

Yes, you should still be admins of your repo. If you run into any issues, please lmk!

[bruno-garcia]

Awesome. Just pushed to master and it worked 👀

[ChrisSfanos]

Excellent - I've gone in and configured the CLA for dotnet/NuGetTrends! I'll do a quick review, but I believe the onboarding process is now complete :-)

[ChrisSfanos]

Onboarding complete - closing this out

[joaopgrassi]

Oh, now I'm "org-less" 😅. I liked having NuGet Trends there ☹

[bruno-garcia]

@joaopgrassi you can still have it, but the project isn't part of that org anymore so makes little sense. I think the github.com/dotnet is for Microsoft employees only. @clairernovotny or @ChrisSfanos can probably help clarify.

I'm a member of the github.com/dotnet-foundation which I believe anyone member of the foundation are part of.
