http://cvs.debian.org/ hosts
the official CVS for DDP under project root "debian-doc".
http://cvs.debian.org/ is hosted at gluck
and has many project roots. If DDP is reactivated as it used to be, it should
show up as DDP CVS.
If you do not see this, that means DDP is still out of service as the result of
Debian Investigation Report
after Server Compromises
Here are a few related links:
Operation of DDP at Alioth
Objective
Provide easy access to the documentation updates for the
content maintainers and the translators.
Project Admin
Requirements for "Project Admin" (not a consensus yet).
- Debian Developer
- Own one section of DDP CVS as a main current author of a document.
Modules of DDP at Alioth
There are 2 different modules in DDP.
- manpages: manual page translation activities (active)
- ddp: all DDP documentation (not active yet)
Building and updating web page
This is still not from Alioth. It will be done from gluck CVS as
it used to be for now.
See proposal for how to secure build script at alioth in the future:
(There were solutions with 2 CVSROOTs proposed previously.)
Transition plan proposals.
Get started with CVS
For translators to get the tree, do this:
$ cvs -d :ext:user@cvs.ddp.alioth.debian.org:/cvsroot/ddp -z3 co ddp # DO NOT USE THIS YET
$ cvs -d :ext:user@cvs.ddp.alioth.debian.org:/cvsroot/ddp -z3 co manpages
For anonymous access, do this:
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ddp.alioth.debian.org:/cvsroot/ddp login
CVS password: (empty password)
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ddp.alioth.debian.org:/cvsroot/ddp -z3 co ddp # DO NOT USE THIS YET
$ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.ddp.alioth.debian.org:/cvsroot/ddp -z3 co manpages

- (system-administrator)
- (tutorial) Key contents are taken into Debian Reference

Although the directory name contains "manuals.sgml", these documents
need not be written in SGML, but they can be XML as well.
So proposal to change this to "manuals" proposed.
