About KForge
KForge is an open-source (GPL) system for managing software and knowledge projects. It re-uses existing best-of-breed tools such as a versioned storage (subversion), a tracker (trac), and wiki (trac or moinmoin), integrating them with the system’s own facilities (projects, users, permissions etc). KForge also provides a complete web interface for project administration as well a fully-developed plugin system so that new services and features can be easily added.

KForge v0.15 has been pretty much ready to go in subversion for the last 6 months. However, even with heavy unit testing plus daily builds and deployments we don’t like to release until we’ve run for a few weeks on our live systems to check everything is working perfectly. Due to our busyness with other things this last and final stage of checking has only started in the last few weeks. So far everything looks good and therefore KForge is like to be out the door right after the new year.

With the latest release we’ve received quite a bit of feedback and one of the main things people have been saying is that they’d like the installation made easier (and/or better documented). We’re all too aware of the need to make it easy to get up and running quickly and we’ve have tried to simplify things as much as possible. One of the difficulties is that KForge intentionally focuses on reusing other tools extensively. This means there are quite a few dependency issues that can catch people out. One good suggestion we’ve had is to prepare a proper deb package for those on debian and ubuntu. One difficulty even with this is what we include. Some people just want subversion and trac, others just the wikis and wordpress. Do we just put everything in or do we ship a core version and leave it up to admins to install the extra plugins as and when they need them?
