This page describes the process of switching to Hg, who'se going to do what, and when.

KaiRo has done most of the changes to the build system, including setting up a test repo. See SeaMonkey:hg-based_build this page for the details of how to do a build using the test repository.

Before we all switch to using those instructions (using a new repo, not the one in that page), the following needs to happen:

  • Announce plan to m.d.a.t, m.d.a.sm, m.d.a.c, m.d.planning (david/dmose/kairo, whenever this page is ready)
  • Close CVS tree (who? when?)
  • Make new Hg repo (hg.mozilla.org/comm-central ?) with full CVS copy. (how long does this take?) (who? when?)
  • Get buildbots & nightly builds working off of Hg (gozer? when?)
  • open Hg tree (who? when?)

Any missing steps?
