Hi friends, the subject line says it all... I'm in the progress of updating stackless to use mercurial on python.org and talked to Martin v. Loewis who pointed out the restrictions of Bitbucket. Besides the impression that Bitbucket is pretty slow, it is also not possible to add our own hooks to it. I'm pretty sure python.org would be happy to host PyPy. Is there any good reason why we don't ask and move to python.org? cheers - chris -- Christian Tismer :^)<mailto:tismer@stackless.com> tismerysoft GmbH : Have a break!

The impression that Bitbucket is slow? What does that mean? I don't find python.org any faster than Bitbucket.

I didn't do the mercurial transition, but I'm pretty happy with bitbucket. -- Regards, Benjamin

We have some personal contacts to bitbucket - they actually sponsor an unlimited plan for PyPy. Moreover, some pypy devs wanted a hosting solution where we do not depend on private connects or work but can rather rely on a company basing their business on such hosting.
PyPy has by now quite some integration code wrt to bitbucket. It seems all are quite happy with bitbucket services as it stands. So seen from now the question probably rather is why we should move anywhere else. best, holger

Well, as said, I see a positive political effect in moving to python.org that I (personally) would not underestimate. But PyPy is maybe popular enough that my point doesn't really exist, or even vice versa - maybe the distinction is even welcome. ;-) cheers - chris -- Christian Tismer :^)<mailto:tismer@stackless.com> tismerysoft GmbH : Have a break!

Heh, dunno. At this stage it would cause some pain but not much technical gain to again move somewhere else. And i think a number of pypy devs are happy with not having to care or think about infrastructure issues or change of dev habits. cheers, holger holger
Hi, having a synced repo on python.org might be a help however i wouldn't want push-permission handling there, since we are probably a bit ore lax about giving new talents access to the repo. Simply having a synced repo on pythong.org might have a better effect for visibility. -- Ronny On Sun, 2011-06-26 at 12:21 +0000, holger krekel wrote:
