I'll write about it in my next post relative to Launchpad's code hosting. We don't have sub-projects (components, in Bugzilla) but we do have project groups. We certainly have project release information (and announcements!) As for discussions, we have the launchpad-users mailing list, and the #launchpad channel on irc.launchpad.net. See you there. ZIM: I understand where you're coming from, but I don't agree with your assessment. Launchpad /is/ for promoting free software development, even if it's not released as free software yourself. At any rate, it's worth pointing out that the source code for the code import infrastructure is released as open source, and there are bugs that need fixing: https://launchpad.net/launchpad-cscvs -- and there will be more code released as we complete the necessary work. n: Well, we do have a code browse feature hooked up to the branch imports.

What I am saying is that launchpad will only be accepted in the free software world once it is itself free software. Of course launchpad isn't about being a infrastructure to develop free software, software that respects and even protects the users' rights, but instead "An open source supermarket." And since it isn't about rights, but instead a software development model/process that launchpad is about, I high doubt that it will ever the source willever become free.

I have some idea for launchpad. Sorry, I dont known where write this so write on here. - code references (like lxr, gnu global) over all sources. - code documentation (like doxygen) - server-side unittest infrastructure (like tinderbox) - server-side coding style, warning and typo checker - project import feature. if sourceforge, like https://launchpad.net/sf:foo/. - release info - distro patch pool on each project page - nightly build - project tagging and project dependence - project fork/split/merge - sub-project feature - manpage translation feature - mozilla-related programs translation feature (*.dtd and *.properties) - *.desktop translation feature - translation launchpad own - user review feature (usability, stability, etc.) - discussion place, poll and idea pool ;) Hi.
