Please describe how new code changes are proposed to the project, how those changes are reviewed and how a decision is made to accept proposed changes. Also describe the process for identifying and appointing new committers.
Changes are proposed via GitHub issues. All issues are reviewed and labelled with the proper type and scope. Issues that are small enough to fit into the current ongoing development are assigned to the current milestone and project. Accepted issues that don't fit into the current timeline is added to the next milestone and release. Discussions regarding issues and upcoming releases are discussed in the issues.
CLA
If already an OSS project, was a Contribution License Agreement in place for contributions accepted? How does the project check who has signed one?
No. We have a simple instruction on how we like people to contribute to the project (https://github.com/PiranhaCMS/piranha.core/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md).
CLA Notification Alias Provide an email address that will receive CLA related notifications from the .NET Foundation CLA automation
hakan@tidyui.com
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
Contribution
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
At the moment it looks like we already fulfill the requirements on repo structure. The only difference is that our documentation is located in a separate repo (https://github.com/PiranhaCMS/piranha.core.docs).
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.
We would promote this through the blog on our website (http://piranhacms.org/blog), twitter (https://twitter.com/piranhacms) and our LinkedIn page which we've just set up. We are also currently working with getting sponsors through Open Collective and Github Sponsors to get a more sustainable model.
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?
We're current using free plans from AppVeyor for building and running tests on Windows, Travis for building and running tests och Mac & Linux, CoverAlls for test coverage and Crowdin for localization. NuGet packages are built with manually defined NuSpec files.
Overall we're happy with our current setup.
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.
To be honest there are many CMS options available for almost any platform. What makes Piranha CMS special is that it's extremely easy to learn for new developers, it's totally plug and play so that you can easily add it to existing projects and that we without a doubt have the best experience for content editors on the .NET platform. Piranha CMS is aimed towards small to medium sized applications and we have no intention of adding big enterprise features and compete with the other alternatives out there.
