Source code moved to GitHub | 2012-01-17
########################################
| GitHub has become the central place for Genode's mainline development.
Moving Genode's code base to the new public GitHub repository represents
the final step on our agenda to open up our development process. From now on,
the 'genodelabs/genode' repository is where the current development happens:
:[https://github.com/genodelabs - Genode Repository at GitHub]:
To follow the development of the master branch, you may like to subscribe
to the corresponding Atom feed:
:[https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/commits/master.atom - Commit Feed]:
In addition to having moved the code over to the new repository, our
documentation and website underwent several changes:
* The genode.org website has been migrated away from the original Plone
CMS to an entirely static custom-made CMS that fetches its content
from the 'genodelabs/genode' repository. Thereby, most of the web-site
content has been incorporated into the repository and will be managed
through Git.
* The Wiki is no more. Its content has been moved to the normal documentation
section. By using Git for the documentation, the process of contributing to
the documentation is streamlined with the process of how code contributions
are handled.
* The how-to-contribute documention has been rewritten, taking the new
GitHub repository into account:

Contributing to Genode
So far, our experience with using GitHub for hosting the Genode development
has been a smooth and overly enjoyable ride. We hope you will appreciate the
greatly liberated development process as much as we do.
