All,
Is this project still actively maintained? It appears to have been a
while since the last update.
Are there any new development goals planned?
Would any of you be interested in migrating this to openSUSE Open
Build Service to automate the packaging and distribution for multiple
distributions?
https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Build_Service
The reason I ask is because we have some community member in openSUSE
that are intentionally using EOL versions of openSUSE to avoid KDE 4
for as long as possible. I would like to make TDE a openSUSE desktop
option for them with a OBS repo.
This could hopefully help all of you pick up some additional developers as well.
Thanks
Tim

Yes it's still active.
check out the current commits:
http://trinitydesktop.org/patches/
from an outside perspective there are 4-6 active developers maintainers and
contributors working to improve the project.
Robert Xu was formerly heading up inquiry into OBS and also integrating TDE
into OpenSuSe, but well life got in the way. Right now he's successfully
navigating himself through college. His irc nick on freenode is @Xu_R if
you want to see what he worked on.

Yes it is; as Calvin mentioned take a look at our GIT tree--there are
changes going in practically every day.
Are there any new development goals planned?
We are trying to get R14 out the door at this time, with a focus on
eliminating as many irritating user-visible bugs (some left over from KDE
3.5.10) as possible. We currently use a meta bug report
http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2014) to track our
progress; right now it looks like we're around 80% of the way to release.

No need to migrate as we have a sizable build infrastructure here, but if
someone wants to add OBS support they should feel free to do so. A word
of warning: TDE is huge; even Launchpad cannot support us properly.
The reason I ask is because we have some community
member in openSUSE
that are intentionally using EOL versions of openSUSE to avoid KDE 4

Sounds good to me; any takers?

I did not realize that there has already been some talk about this in
openSUSE and that a team already exists to continue to maintain KDE 3
presently. It appears they are more interested in staying with what
they have now.

Hello,
I'm currently integrating TDE R14 in the opensuse build service.
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:PunisherHD:trinity-r14
What I'm doing on OBS:
- Building packages without any patch (TDE R14 must be buildable out of
the box)
- Keeping source code and packaging files in our own GIT
- Configuring OBS servers to download the required files from our GIT
then build the packages.
It takes me some time to modify the RPM packages, because the "rpmlint"
tool for opensuse adds many constraints that I don't have when building
on my own computer.
And I must remain compatible with other RPM distributions too.
At the moment, I don't know how to make OBS aware of source code change
in our GIT, to have automatic rebuild of packages. I must trigger the
download/build manually.
Tim, can you please consider adding patches from bug #2133 so that
tdeilbs will build on OBS ?
Then I can build tdebase and have a minimal working TDE ...
Finally, please be aware that OBS is good but not the ultimate build
solution: it lacks support for many distributions.

Sounds good! Very similar to how the automated builds for Debian-based
systems work on this end.

Looks like Slavek pushed the patches for me. Thanks Slavek!

Precisely, but it is a good start. Having a tinderbox of sorts for
rpm-based systems is also a good thing.
