fluid-lab GitHub organization

[Justin Obara]

Hi Tony,

That’s a really good question. We haven’t really created any formalized
policy / structure around the fluid-lab organization as of yet. However, I
believe the initial idea is to keep things a bit less restrictive and
provide a space for open collaboration. That is, create a space that more
easily collects relevant work and provides for collaboration. Allowing
projects that would be useful for our community in the community, instead
of in personal repositories, so to speak.

That being said, I’m really curious to hear what others think about this as
well, and if / what sort of formal guidelines and policies we may want to
adopt.

Thanks
Justin

Hi, Justin:

Now that I'm actually considering submitting something to fluid labs, I
have a practical question about the process here.  For GPII contrib
projects, we request a new repo, and then fork/branch and submit our
contribution as a pull request against the new repo.  This allows us to
have an initial pull request review for the project, which is a good
opportunity to discuss best practices and review the quality together.

I know we're in a transitional state here, so I understand moving in
existing projects via ownership transfers.  What about new projects?
Should they follow the same process as we use with GPII contributions?
What does everyone else think?

Cheers,


Tony
