ProjectTools

It's important that we establish the use of a set of tools people are familiar with and that work together reliably. In my experience the needs of a community project are :

1. Good documentation system for developing specifications, writing user notes, posting news of significant project events, and providing general information such as this wiki.
2. CVS repository and CVS-view. While there are some healthy competitors, such as subversion, CVS is more widely adopted by developers and admin.
3. Bug tracking
4. Download areas
5. Testing systems
6. Mailing list - where the guts of people's ideas are fleshed out.
7. Core working group, which have the time and interest to manage all of the above.

My vote at the moment goes something like this :

• Bioengineering Institute based plone portal for 1.
• Sourceforge for 2,3,4, and perhaps some of 5. An alternative to sourceforge for 3 is a Bioengineering institute based PloneCollectorNG instance.
• Bioengineering Institute based mailing list for 6 since we already have a CellML language mailing list hosted there.
• Interested and dedicated people for 7.
