I'd say so - we shouldn't ask users to use two different bug trackers. Furthermore, sometimes a bug which seemed to be related to Lazarus only needs to be re-routed to compiler or RTL. -- xhajt03 15:38, 15 Jan 2006 (CET) | I'd say so - we shouldn't ask users to use two different bug trackers.

Revision as of 20:33, 4 February 2006
The purpose of this page is to discuss how far Lazarus and FPC should be merged. This isn't a democratic vote but a place for the developers to collect their opinions.
Website
Yes. Avoids user confusion and reduces administration when it's done --FPK 11:26, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Yes, but consider something like "1 company, 2 products" - people not interested in GUI stuff (for whatever reason) should be still able to find "their" product easily. --xhajt03 15:22, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Forums
Yes. Saves administration work and makes it easier for users to find the right place to ask. --FPK 11:26, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
If the forums are merged then we need a better forum. The current Lazarus forum has some issues:
- Lot´s of people can´t register
- Bad organization of the topics. You will notice that forums such as Misc or General have a lot more posts then the others. This shows that the topics are badly organized.

Bug tracker
Not sure. --FPK 11:26, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Good idea. With mantis you can easily define projects and move issues between projects. -- Vincent 14:48, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
I'd say so - we shouldn't ask users to use two different bug trackers. Furthermore, sometimes a bug which seemed to be related to Lazarus only needs to be re-routed to compiler or RTL. -- xhajt03 15:38, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Yes, current FPC system is a kludge anyway. -- Marco
Common core mailing list
No, creates too much noise. But introduce a new list lazarus-fpc-core for people being involved in things affecting both projects. --FPK 11:26, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
No, but make it possible for more people to post to lazarus-developer list. -- Vincent 14:51, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Wiki
Yes, saves administration work --FPK 11:26, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Yes -- Vincent 14:49, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
Releases
No, requires too much coordination, already getting the FPC releases within a reasonable time frame is hard. --FPK 11:26, 15 Jan 2006 (CET)
