The SVN repository is now officially closed. From the sourceforge admin panel, it was not clear what exactly this means; you can maybe still update, but hopefully not commit anymore

-> Hiura: you'll have to create an account on github so that I can add you to the project team. If you need help on Git or anything just let me know.

-> Bindings maintainers: the best solution would be to create a separate repository for each binding; let me know what you think about it, what you'd like to do, etc.

I don't know if the snapshots links on the website still work, I'll redirect them to github as soon as possible.

Already set one up: https://github.com/Groogy/rbSFML

Though I'm wondering, should the binding have some kind of link back to SFML? Just wondering if it is possible in github to like say "this is a dependency" so that it's downloaded with my own binding or something.

If not I'll just have to provide a basic http link in the README.

Maybe there could be an SFML github account, which would own the SFML repository as well as that of each binding ? This way, the bindings will still keep an "official" status, without being in the SFML repository itself.

Good, should I remove it from the SFML repository now?

I don't think that github provides such a feature. What you could do is to include the SFML repository into your own one with a sub-module; it's like a symbolic link. However I'm not sure if it's really the right thing to do, I've never used sub-modules.

I don't see why not?

I have no idea, that's why I'm asking ^^

Anyway I have a proper README file for installation guidelines and dependencies.
