Ubuntuwire: developer services by the community for the community
The UbuntuWire project, created to get developer services to the community by community members, is the culmination of lots of hard work from Ubuntu Developers within the community outside Canonical. The aim is to provide hosting and support for the many community-developed tools that help to make Ubuntu run smoothly, particularly for those working on Ubuntu’s Universe and Multiverse.
The community network was founded 18months ago, back in February 2006. Ubuntu developers wanted a quick way to compile and test for several architectures (i386, AMD64 and PowerPC). One of the first pieces transferred across to the new hosting was REVU (“review”) the system used to check new upload for the community supported “Universe” and “Multiverse” components of Ubuntu. REVU was transferred across in August this year has most recently been joined by a customed Google search covering Kubuntu and other members of the Ubuntu family.
The developers behind UbuntuWire had a long desire to provide a single location of the set of tools available to developers to work and help improve Ubuntu.
