While we're beta testing Project Kenai, we want to collect as much feedback from you as possible. Please remember to use the "Feedback" button on the right side of the page. We are listening carefully and want to hear your voice. No comment is too small. If you have ideas for new features, you can also use this forum to run your ideas by the Project Kenai Team, as well as other users. Let's get a conversation going on how to improve Project Kenai so we can truly live up to our mantra "We're More Than Just a Forge". Thanks All! The Project Kenai Team |

Jesse; We really need some kind of web metrics. Even something as small as letting a project specify even the teeniest, tiniest bit of undoctored HTML to our pages (or even our Wikis) would be a huge bonus. Even an external image tag would help (could time travel back to 1997 and download a web bug for somewhere). As it stands now, I can't tell the difference between zero activity and a hugely successful project. That seems silly. I know you guys are working on some sort of great tool, but NIH syndrome is never a reason to deny us features. Please Oh Please do something. Even throw Google Analytics or something in your global page footers and have per-project reports. Heck, if it comes down to a time commitment problem, I'll volunteer myself to administer change requests and so forth. |

The possibility to have several jira issue trackers (like it is possible for scm). In my project I have something like 5 independant modules and I can't use jira because I need 5 jira projects. Alexandre |

Have you tried setting up different components in your Jira instance for each of the Modules that are in your project? You can also setup different versions and such. Just a thought --jb The Project Kenai Team |

Components can't resolve my problems. Components are cool when you release only one binary with a lot of modules. Components are used to categorize an issue, no more. But when you want to release several binaries not with the same version, you must have several jira projects. Alexandre |

Hudson support would be perfect addition. Just because you already have atlassian jira, would be perfect to have access to other products such as Crowd, Clover, Fisheye and others. Theses tools are best what developers can have. I'm not sure about licensing issues for all of these products, but Atlassian and Jetbrains happily provides support and licenses to open source projects. Regards Remis B |

It took a while to be able to login from Netbeans to Kenai without an error - now that works... but it is not possible to load member projects... therefore again, Kenai seems not to be a relaiable platform... and that is why bitbucket is usd for the project (again)... before enhancing Kenai you should make it work in general... |

I would like to start a community effort to provide some external scripts to assist in moving an existing repository. Does the Kenai team have any scripts of ideas about this? Many of us have huge repositories with svn history. We can;t just reparent to Kenai and import. There are two cases. * You are willing to just start over, so we need a simple script like find .-print | grep .svn | xargs .... rm xxxxx (don't try this ) * You want to preserve you commit log I don't know how to solve this one without direct help from Kenai I realize there are other SCMs, but my immediate interest is subversion. |

| I will move this discussion to the existing forum topic and see if svnsync is capable of getting an existing repository into Kenai. |

| Statistics We are a small group and would value the ability to get some simple stats on our "click" stats. Some simple stats I would value are; 1) How many times the repository has been downloaded ( svn operations and where they come from), 2) Download clicks for various files General stats on the other pages in a project. Results could be provided in .clf format Not sure what the community would think of making public all the log data. I can think of several very interesting hadoop jobs one could run on the log files. |

Hi Rinaldo- I believe this is on the roadmap and should be provided in the future... It's not easy to implement quickly, but once done right, the data should be available to project leaders. |

Important features - Hudson (a cool build continous software) as JBoss has (http://hudson.jboss.org/hudson/) Less important features - Sonar (a cool quality software) as Sonar sample (http://nemo.sonar.codehaus.org/) - Fisheye (a repository browser) as JBoss (http://fisheye.jboss.org/) - Kenai Maven skin (a skin for maven site) as java.net (https://beantablemodel.dev.java.net/) - Statistics as Google Analytics |

Are you looking to migrate from SVN to Hg, or sync the two types of repositories? Do you have a reference to how this is done in other places today? I couldn't find this kind of thing with a Google search, but that's probably because I don't quite understand what you're looking for. Thanks for any more details you can provide. --jb The Project Kenai Team |

Sync the two types of repositories oin every commit, or hourly or daily. You can look hgsvn (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/hgsvn) but I'm not sure if it is really possible. It can be cool to have ssh/rsync (cool for deploying in Maven Central Repo) also as Sourceforge do. |

Hi, Kenai is superb and we thank. Could you provide more statistics? It is provided for Downloads but not for Mercurial repository cloning. Could you generate RSS file or can I include it in the project wiki? There are many projects which do not have minimal description - could you make administrators to fill basic informations - what it is, which language and technology. Could you split or sign my projects and bookmarked projects on My Page ? By Milos |
