<div dir="ltr"><div>The Infrastructure Subcommittee plans to change the structure of
the Forum's <span class="gmail-il">GitHub</span> organization to better
reflect the evolving structure
of the Forum itself by moving to separate repositories for each working
group. We've discussed a number of ways to accomplish this, and have
concluded that the following steps represent the best approach:<br></div><div><br></div><div>First, we'll clone the "documents" repository to "archive", preserving branches and commit history.</div><div><br></div><div>We'll then rename "documents" to "servercert". This repo will contain the SCWG Charter, BRs, and EVGLs. <span class="gmail-il">GitHub</span>
will automatically redirect links from the old name to the new name,
keeping links to the current versions of the BRs, NCSSRs, and EVGLs
functioning.<br></div><div><br></div><div>The "servercert" repo will be
forked to create a "forum" repo that retains commit history for the
Charter and other Forum level documents. Non-SCWG documents will then be
deleted from "servercert", and non-Forum docs will be deleted from
"forum".<br></div><div><br></div><div>Also, ALL EXISTING BRANCHES WILL
BE DELETED - this means that some redline links included in old ballots
will be broken. Those links can be manually modified to reference the
"archive" repository. This is a tradeoff made to preserve links to the
current versions of SCWG docs and to simplify this migration.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Finally, we'll create new repositories under the 'cabforum' organization as follows:</div><span class="gmail-im"><div>- "code-signing" - Code signing Charter, BRs, and EV code signing guidelines</div><div>- "smime" - Charter and BRs for S/MIME certificates</div></span><div>- "tools" - Future location for automation code and other Infrastructure WG files</div><div><span><br></span></div><div>The few commits that need to be preserved in these repos will be manually re-created.</div><span class="gmail-im"><div><br></div><div>Each
repo will have access rights specific to the working group (e.g. SCWG
members won't be able to approve changes to the SMCWG repo).<br></div><div><br></div></span><div>The "main" branch of each repo will be configured to enforce reviews before merging a pull request.</div><div><br></div><div>The
Infrastructure subcommittee proposes that these changes be made after
November 1st if no objections are raised. Please respond if you have any
concerns with this proposal.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div>Wayne<br></div></div>
