ANNOUNCE: Incubator CVS moving to Subversion

["Noel J. Bergman" <no...@devtech.com>]

Don't panic.  :-)  We are not moving any project CVS modules, for those that
are still in CVS.

The Incubator PMC has decided to move the Incubator's own CVS modules into
Subversion.  This will take place today.

The new structure is what you see (temporarily) under:

  http://svn.apache.org/repos/test/incubator/public/trunk/

Those who have access, and will be updating the repository will checkout

  https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/

once it has been migrated.  It will also be visible via the normal http and
viewcvs methods.

Those of you who understand Subversion may be wondering about trunk
directory.  The ASF mailer uses the path to determine where to send commit
messages.  If we were to want to create a branch for possibly changing from
forrest to some other publishing engine, or there were to be an ASF
convention to have a "live" tag for site directories, we still want all of
those commit notices to be caught by the incubator/public mailer
configuration, and we won't have to change our checkouts.  So once you've
done your checkout, just ignore that there is a trunk component to the path.

Everyone who is a member of the Incubator PMC, a PMC Chair, and/or a member
of any project currently in the Incubator should have karma, since that was
the state of affairs prior to migration.  Please let me know if you've lost
commit access (an oversight) and need it.

Okay that is done now. The top-level Incubator website
is now using SVN.

There seem to be some old directories in there which
i did not touch. Perhaps a spring clean is needed.
/www/incubator.apache.org/jaxme/
/www/incubator.apache.org/depot-old/

There seems to be some old stuff in SVN at
site-author/projects/geronimo/

Also stuff which does not correlate with site-author at
site-publish/projects/atrmi/
site-publish/projects/ftpserver/
site-publish/projects/geronimo/

I have updated the instructions to rebuild the Incubator website.

However, i have not done the final stage, which is to
remove the old CVS checkout at /www/incubator.apache.org
and replace it with the contents of SVN incubator/site-publish
Be careful with the project websites there, e.g. Depot, Beehive, etc.
