  5. … CVS → SVN • Test-server (without replication) available well in advance to exercise normal operation by developers, NRI, build-farm, … • allowed to identify more suitable directory structure • tested fixes for code referring explicitly to CVS administrative files • some Makefiles assumed particular file-permissions on binary files, while SVN deals with that in a different way • After migration and enabling replication • few WANdisco cases (talk-back script, logs, address already in use) • SVN client version • Pending: branching strategy / use of trunk ICT planning meeting #1 / SCO

  7. JIRA … • Decided during Sept 2012 CIPT leads-meeting to go for new ICT “project” within JIRA • Opted for separate, independent server as JIRA host • All ICT standard activities should have an ICT ticket (to which other projects/tickets can link) • Access to ICT-project: all ICT-members, TBD list of scientists, operators, engineers (to be agreed with DSO/SIST/ASG) • Clear initial involvement of group-lead to decide on the priority of the issue ICT planning meeting #1 / SCO

  8. … JIRA • jira.alma.cl: • JIRA 4.4 • > 130 projects, 40 issue-types, >1350 users, … • several system-wide settings not optimal for ICT (e.g. resolution, priority, time tracking, issue statuses, …) • New server: • JIRA 5.2.9 • 9 issue types, with clear definition • specific workflow for typical ICT software development process ICT planning meeting #1 / SCO
