Hello, Following a discussion during the last CentOS interlock in Paris, we want to propose the creation of a new SIG that will try to package and deliver applications (and related libraries) that can be called productivity applications such as: * Issues trackers * Source code management tools * Job orchestrators In the beginning we want to focus on packaging applications we currently ship inside an Open source CI/CD platform called Software Factory [1] and make them available for every CentOS user. Once packaged, we will use them directly to build the Software Factory image. These applications are (among others): * Storyboard [2] * Gerrit [3] * Zuul [4] * Redmine [5] Software Factory is a software development platform geared towards CI and CD that we've been developing since January 2014. Software Factory pre-configures and runs Gerrit, Jenkins, Nodepool, Zuul (and other optional services) over CentOS. We are going to package these services to ease the Software Factory image creation but we think this effort of packaging and the resulting artifacts make sense under a SIG thus this Productivity Tooling SIG creation request. We intend to provide & maintain an instance of Software Factory that will host the related distgit repositories and automate the CI jobs interacting with CBS. We are looking forward to your comments and we hope this new SIG request make sense.
