Hello,
we got more than 6500 projects since the start of the opensuse.org Build Service instance (plus the projects which got removed again by their owners). These projects contain more than 13000 repositories, which get need to get in sync by our service.
This takes obviously resources on the server side and quite a number of these projects are not touched since a while. So I assume they are not needed anymore.
So I think it is a good idea to free the resources from these projects and give it to us active people :)
This will basically affect all projects, where no source changes happened since 1 year or more.
We have basically 961 "old projects" and further 2300 empty projects (no packages inside).
A FAQ and a full list of "old projects" can be found here. Please speak up, when you think this is no propper approach or if you want to support this :)
I think it'd make sense to send a mail to the maintainers of those projects before doing anything (and wait ~10 days).
Also, it'd probably be nice to move the data (source, not packages) to somewhere where it can be recovered, instead of just wiping it...
Sources will not get touched, just the project meta information (build flags and repositories in second step). So it can get enabled again by everybody easily again. I just found out that we have also 2308 empty projects, which contain still 1024 repositories. This leaves still directories and small meta file on the server, which should get removed. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
