* Forcibly port the most important, unmaintained tools to Labs

Don't we have to state the license for all our code to get a password renewal? I remember setting that at some point...

Because then we could just make a copy of the tool in that nasty open-source way of Wikipedia, instead of having it die with the toolserver?

* Make copies of the source of those tools publicly available (they should all be open source, but some directories are not accessibly for other users from shell IIRC) * Keep a Foundation-readable snapshot of the toolserver home directories, user-store, DB dumps etc.

ok, I consulted Nosy, DaB. and Mette about this proposal and we will not make the home directories accessible to others. They can contain all sorts of private data, user names, e-mail addresses, ssh keys, who knows what else - maybe even gpg keys, so handing the complete package over is no option. I wouldn't want to "intrude" into the people's stuff. And we'd get in trouble with the law here, as the German data protection act is binding for us.

Also, of course I prefer people moving their own tools! Just in the important-tool-will-die-with-toolserver scenario...

Hello, reading this I feel forced to publish my short Top50 usage of yesterday URLs from Toolserver. Its just a quick hack on my console but I guess it is more clear output then probably a webalizer could offer. I just counted the lines in my access log from yesterday of how often a user dir was called.

Hi, Am 09.10.2013, 14:55 Uhr, schrieb Magnus Manske < magnusmanske(a)googlemail.com&gt;gt;: There are some tools from e.g. apper that would probably move quite well. I just started moving some simple tools a few days ago, but the availability seems very bad to me. Sometimes the tools work, sometimes not - at the moment nothing works for me, not only my tools but also e.g. http://tools.wmflabs.org/add-**information/<http://tools.wmflabs.org/add… http://tools.wmflabs.org/**catfood/ <http://tools.wmflabs.org/catfood/ It was told that the toolserver will die one year after "Tool Labs has all necessary features to replace the Toolserver.". One feature is availability - and for now it's impossible for me to move tools if they only work 50% of the day. So either the availability will be at nearly 100% or the shutdown will be delayed.

+1 on Maarten and also Magnus on public_html etc.

I also assume all SVN repositories will be exported,

JIRA & tswiki etc. archived,

license information in LDAP preserved somewhere?

The roadmap contains no information whatsoever.

Then I officially ask a svn dump of all SVN repos. Importing them on sourceforge looks rather easy: http://sourceforge.net/p/** forge/community-docs/**Subversion/<http://sourceforge.net/p/forge/commun…
