+</I>
+Nanar will be able to do it, even if hosting a small database like this
+may not be very appealing to him. There is just 5g, when compared to
+sophie, I let him give the numbers.
+
+But I would prefer to have it hosted on mysql if we later migrate to
+another vm. The lag Marseille &lt;-&gt; Toulouse will not be good if it can be
+avoided. We could also setup a different postgresql server on the forum
+vm in this case.
+
+In any case, postgresql to mysql conversion doesn't look doable.
+
+&gt;<i> There will be a central node repos (somewhere... perhaps github or gitorious) cloned from upstream
+</I>&gt;<i> phpbb... from there we'll clone dev repos to add our changes... templates, mods integrations, specific patches etc.
+</I>
+I would prefer to have it hosted on our servers, for various and obvious
+reasons ( like : &quot;handling the auth and permission ourself&quot; &quot;proper
+bugtracker integration&quot;, etc ).
+
+But we are not ready, see my answer about gitorious. So here is a
+proposal in 4 steps :
+
+Now :
+- we do a git checkout every 5 minutes ( just need the url, and
+testing )
+
+Later ( like short term ):
+- sysadmins do work to have a git repository, who will be the exact
+state of production, and be the reference. That where changes are
+pushed, and where the server take his checkout. So this way, the project
+handle who can push to it using ldap (unification of auth, delegatation
+etc ).
+
+Later again ( like mid term ) :
+- you express your needs in term of hosting ( like what type of hook,
+requirement in term of web interface, &quot;need to do review&quot; &quot;need to show
+dancing hamster&quot; , etc ) when we do a call for that ( you can do before,
+but this will potentially be lost ).
+
+Once we have installed this :
+- you switch to our infrastructure.
+
+&gt;<i> We'll clone also integration repos (used for first test level) from which test
+</I>&gt;<i> repos will be cloned and then production will be at the end
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Of these 3 i'd like at least to have test on the server (and production obviously)
+</I>
+Since we do have puppet and can clone machine, I would then prefer to
+have a separate vm for test than for production, unless there is problem
+with the intended usage (like you really need to have the exact same
+hardware, for load testing purpose ).
+
+&gt;<i> &gt; Do you need modifications in phpBB sources ?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> yes... some coming from (more or less) official patches (called &quot;mods&quot;) some coming from ash and i and perhaps other php devs
+</I>
+/me close eyes when reading &quot;(more of less) official patches&quot;.
+
+&gt;<i> &gt; If that's only for configuration files, we can host them on puppet svn
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; and deploy them with puppet.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> if you want to play with puppet for production and having us not touching it with our dirty hands (^^) i'm perfectly ok with
+</I>&gt;<i> that... but i neeed a integration and testing forum with cascaded by git cloning
+</I>&gt;<i> (and i need to sync database of test from production to simulate version migration then cancel and replay as much a i need)
+</I>
+Could we do it with a master/slave replication without much trouble ?
+( and possibly, one that would automatically recreate the db once it is
+dropped )
+
+Or we can do snapshot using lvm, but I think this can be quite fragile.
+
+
+&gt;<i> so that we test our changes (and the migration process) on a perfectly identic env before putting them in production.
+</I>
+As said, I would strongly favor a automated deployment using git, at
+least on production server.
+
+&gt;<i> (And git will be the spine of all that process)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Can we have access to the sources, list of changes (if changes are
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; needed), and configuration files somewhere ?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; If a source management is needed, I would use Mageia svn for now, and
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; later an other source management software when it is setup on Mageia
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; servers.
+</I>&gt;<i> Svn does not offer enough flexibility for playing with our repository while
+</I>&gt;<i> keeping a true link with upstream to merge their change with ours without pain :-/
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> (Sorry but here SVN is not an option we should consider viable imho)
+</I>
+As I said, if people want us to host git, there is a few questions to
+answer first ( I guess that 2 weeks to gather requirement should
+suffice, given proper flamewar handling )
