v44 v45 17 17 18 18 This effort precedes Univa taking over gridengine maintenance and 19 taking it ‘open core’, but what's here is now nearly a superset 20 of [https://github.com/gridengine Univa's free code]. Unfortunately 21 Univa aren't accepting contributions, as originally envisaged, so this 22 code base will doubtless diverge more, but is intended to be 23 compatible. 19 subsequently apparently making it entirely proprietary, rather than the 20 originally-promised ‘open core’, but what's here is nearly a large superset 21 of [https://github.com/gridengine Univa's free code]. 24 22 See also the [http://gridengine.org gridengine.org site], in particular the 25 23 [http://gridengine.org/mailman/listinfo/ mail lists] hosted there. … … 27 25 discussions and questions which aren't specific to this project. 28 26 29 Currently anyinformation you find for the gridengine v6.2u5 release27 Currently most information you find for the gridengine v6.2u5 release 30 28 will apply to this effort, including the 31 29 [http://wikis.sun.com/display/gridengine62u5/Home v6.2u5 wiki documentation] … … 54 52 * 2011-02-04: The howtos from sunsource are online, see [#resources Other Resources]. 55 53 56 * 2011-01-28: There is a [http://gridengine.org new gridengine site]. It's currently unclear whether that will eventually make this one redundant.57 58 * 2011-01-18: Things will change following the [http://www.univa.com/about/news/press_2011/01172011.php announcement from Univa] about commercial support. They're talking to people about re-establishing a single free software project and community, aiming to address issues with the former Sun project. It's looking good.59 60 * 2011-01-12: There's now a partial [http://arc.liv.ac.uk/pipermail/gridengine-users/ archive] of the sunsource gridengine-users list (thanks to Mark Dixon), pending getting all the data from Oracle. It isn't yet indexed, and actually contains also more recent messages to the other old gridengine lists. The Markmail archive referenced below is probably currently more useful if you can cope with the interface.61 62 * 2010-11-15: URLs of the form `http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/hg/`//repo// and `http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/git/`//repo// now work for hg and git respectively.63 64 * 2010-11-14: You can now access the repos with Mercurial (`hg`) at the same URLs as with `darcs`, e.g. {{{hg clone http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/darcs/sge/}}}. (They should probably be aliased to avoid confusion.) You can also pull with `git`, but the relevant URL is the darcs one with `/.git` appended, e.g. {{{git clone http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/darcs/sge/.git}}}. Servers are not currently available for hg or git, so pulling may be relatively slow Also note that pulls with git or hg leave scripts not executable — see the amended build instructions.65 66 * 2010-11-14: Most jar files have been expunged since several from the sunsource repository are copyleft, and can't be distributed as-were. Since this involved re-writing history in the `arco` and `nbgui` repos, if you pulled from them, you'll need to do it again, unfortunately.67 68 * 2010-11-10: A general [#mail mail list] and bug-reporting by mail are available.69 70 54 == !Repositories/Source == 71 55 … … 92 76 The repositories are maintained under 93 77 [http://darcs.net/ darcs],[[FootNote(Darcs is a nice distributed version control system, but doesn't currently scale so well with a repository of this size and age. It's fine for looking at the change history and recording new changes, but currently slow at producing diffs for previous changes, for instance.)]] 94 but are mirrored to Mercurial and git — see [#News News].78 but are mirrored to Mercurial and git — see below. 95 79 To clone the sge repo, get 96 80 a [http://wiki.darcs.net/Binaries recent version of darcs] — at least … … 113 97 [http://arc.liv.ac.uk/downloads/SGE snapshot directory], but 114 98 snapshots currently aren't made automatically, so it may not be so up-to-date. 99 100 You can access the repos with Mercurial (`hg`) at the same URLs as with `darcs`, e.g. {{{hg clone http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/darcs/sge/}}}. (They should probably be aliased to avoid confusion.) You can also pull with `git`, but the relevant URL is the darcs one with `/.git` appended, e.g. {{{git clone http://arc.liv.ac.uk/repos/darcs/sge/.git}}}.

See the 216 [http://gridengine.org/pipermail/users/2011-November/001861.html rebuttal]. 217 Reports of licensing bugs are very welcome, of course. 226 218 227 219 == Related ==
