[occi-wg] OGF repository testing - participation invited

[Alan Sill]

Hi all,

We had to fix four successive problems that emerged in accessing the  
GridForge-hosted subversion repositories after the recent hosting  
move.  (Note: the long-term plan is to change technologies underlying  
the forge, but for now the goal was to get things stable and complete  
in the new hosting location to which they have been moved.)

I'd like to make sure that the current setup is working well before  
announcing the restoration of access to the full wg-all list.  For  
hose of you who are used to using the repositories, the only change  
you shouold see is that we have moved to https access in place of  
plain text for all access, so you will have to change the repository  
location to https in place of http in your svn client, and as we are  
doing this with a self-signed certificate for now, you'll have to  
accept the cert either temporarily or permanently.  We do plan to  
replace that certificate with an official commercial one shortly  
through a new arrangement with DigiCert.

Please try this out and let us know if your testing helps uncover any  
so-far-unfound bugs.  (Positive reports of successful results are also  
welcome!).

Alan for the folks in the nascent OGF IT effort
