Details

Mozilla Japan have developed the Parapara Animation tool. http://parapara.mozlabs.jp/ http://brian.sol1.net/svg/2012/01/27/parapara-animation/ At the recent DML2012 event there was significant interest in this tool. Many people want to use this tool around the world. Also the Popcorn team want to incorporate it into the Popcorn maker. However, its source currently lives in my github account: https://github.com/birtles/parapara It seems more appropriate that it live under the mozilla github account. Can we move it across? What are the requirements for doing so? For example, I don't think we have any clear license statement attachment to the source yet, so perhaps we need to add that first?
Not IT, re-assigning.

Give me the github usernames of people you want to allow accessing this repository. After I add a group for you, I think you can then move the repo to Mozilla. Or you can make me an admin for this repository on your account and I'll move it for you. > For example, I don't think we have any clear license statement attachment to > the source yet, so perhaps we need to add that first? That's a good idea, please do.

Also, can you add some information information as to what this project is to your README, as well as the github tag line (currently: パラパラアニメーションエデイタ)? A sentence or two is good.

(I forgot I stopped getting mail notifications when I am the bug reporter). The usernames are: birtles dadaa moccow > After I add a group for you, I think you can then move the repo to Mozilla. > Or you can make me an admin for this repository on your account and I'll > move it for you. I'm just going to hold off for a moment because I think we might want to split the repository into two first but I need to talk to the other developer first. > > For example, I don't think we have any clear license statement attachment to > > the source yet, so perhaps we need to add that first? > > That's a good idea, please do. Ok, will do (but this will take a little time).

I (birtles) have, but I'm not sure about the others. Or is that only for hg?
It's not technically a requirement for the github repositories, but I think generally code contributors to Mozilla should sign a Committer's Agreement, yes.
Ok, I've split the repository into two and one of the repositories is nearly ready to move (just waiting on approval to re-license one code snippet as MPL 2.0). I'm happy to do the move (I'm thinking of, rather than doing a fork, creating a new repo on mozilla and then copying the history across so that the one on mozilla becomes the "master" so to speak--i.e. the place everyone will fork from in future). I guess we will want two repos under the mozilla account: parapara-workshop parapara-editor For the usernames, just the following two should be sufficient for now: birtles dadaa

You can do that, yes, or you go into "admin" on your own repository and move it to into mozilla's space. Then you can fork it again into your own space. (You'll lose commit access to the "donated" repo for a short time until I fix the groups). > I guess we will want two repos under the mozilla account: > > parapara-workshop > parapara-editor > > For the usernames, just the following two should be sufficient for now: > > birtles > dadaa Right on. I created a group for you.

I'll try to coordinate with you on IRC so we can minimise that window. > Right on. I created a group for you. Great, thanks Fred!

Ok, I transferred the repositories, 'parapara' and 'parapara-editor' to mozilla. Please add birtles and dadaa as admins of the repo (or whatever it is you do!) Also, if possible, can you rename 'parapara' to 'parapara-workshop'? If it's not possible, it's no big deal. Thanks!
Done (both the rename, and adding your group as admins of those two repos). moccow is member of that group too, or did you not want that? Let me know. Closing for now :) Have fun!
