From: Rob Weir To: infrastructure@apache.org, ooo-dev@incubator.apache.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 The legacy OpenOffice.org project had an instance [1] of a source code searching, cross reference application called "OpenGrok"[2]. It is very useful, especially in a 6 million LOC project like OOo. Have we ever used OpenGrok at Apache? If not, is there an alternative that other projects are using? Or are most other projects small enough that local IDE cross reference databases are sufficient? The pre-req's for OpenGrok are on their website [3] and include GlassFish or Tomcat (6.x or later) with Java at least 1.6, and Exuberant Ctags [4] Is this something that appears technical feasible, based on the server support have at Apache? Easy, medium or hard? If this seems like a relatively easy thing to get hosted on Apache infrastructure, we can discuss further on the project to see if we can find a volunteer to drive it. But I wanted to check first to see if this looked reasonable.
