Yesterday, I have published, finally, the ArchLinux Redmine Theme. For additional Infos, please browse to the Theme Page on the Redmine page. Furhtermore you can find additional Information on the Source in the Source Repository.
Today, I released the latest version (0.3) of the ArchLinux Development Stack. This version contains a lot of changes to nearly all packages. Most of the packages got renamed and also cleaned up. Another interesting addition to the stack is the Rails package. On this page, I added the Ruby on Rails 1.9 friendly secure compare patch, because without it, Redmine is not running correctly under Ruby 1.9.1v243, which is the default under ArchLinux right now.
Thanks for all the help, I received during the updates of the packages. For more information or feedback, please go to the projectpage.
Sine yesterday I am the official Maintainer of the ArchLinux Rails package, which can still be found in the AUR. I take over from Grumpytoad, who offered to Mentor me on the next release. So Raider is now known as Twix, everything else stays the same 
I put the sources in the same Git Repository as the ArchLinux DevStack.
So, if you want to help out, you are more then welcome.
Today I publishe a new package (gitauth) to the AUR. I have already written some lines about gitauth. Mainly it is a ruby written replacement for Gitosis. This will be in the future a major part of the ArchLinux Developement Stack.
Just now I received an email, that the ArchLinux Development Stack has been added to the Softpedia Index. I am unsure, if this is a good thing or not, but it adds visibility to the project
I made it a little early and in a very simple version. The hudson package can now be found in the AUR. This version still is running totally contained in the /opt/hudson-directory, all logs and configuration are stored in there. This will be changed in the next version of this package.
In the next iteration, we will think a little about other tools, to make this Development Stack a successful project. Meaning e.g., that we are going to provide gitauth. Furthermore, we will digg into LDAP a little, to provide a central authentification storage. Another thing to digg into is the need for plugins for the already available packages (e.g. the sonar-plugin for Hudson).
There is a lot more to come, stay tuned and provide feedback
I started the development of the Hudson package, an integral part of the ArchLinux Development Stack. This package will use the Java Service Wrapper, like the Sonar and Nexus packages. The only difference to these is, that I have to pack this one here totally on my own, because no pre-packed version exists.
I hope that I can publish this package quite soon (meaning, this weekend). After this package is done, we can release version 0.2 of the ArchLinux DevStack.
Another important news is, that I have found another neat tool for Git-Hosting on your own server, which is probably going to be a part of the Development Stack as well. This is a Ruby-only clone of the quite famous gitosis named gitauth. Currently I am already in contact to the Developer of gitauth, because of some minor issues, which arose during the initial install on my ArchLinux box. I hope that we can solve these issues and that they can (hopefully) provide an LDAP integration for the Git Hosting environment as well.
If you would like to join the team for this Development Stack on ArchLinux, there is still need for helping hands.
Today I updated the java-sonar package to the latest release of Sonar. Furthermore I updated the PKGBUILD-file, so that now the sonar.properties file in /etc/sonar is automatically backuped, if it is changed by the user.
