Software Configuration Management

Introduction

Software Configuration Management covers a wide range of practices, including tracking and controlling changes in the software using version control, building software and creating baselines, reporting on the contents of such builds and baselines, establishing traceability from requirements and change requests to software revisions, etc.

The goal of this effort is to define a common set of resources, formats and RESTful services to access and manipulate SCM systems.

Approach

The group has not attempted to define a complete set of SCM services such as those in IETF 3253 (WebDAV DeltaV) or JSR-147 (WVCM). Rather, we are defining incrementally the services needed to implement specific SCM Use Cases.

Status

This group has defined the first set of SCM services. This first set of services focuses on simple queries and reports, satisfying the needs of a Drill-Down report, amongst others.

We will start to define the Scenarios for SCM V2 in 2012. If you are interested in defining future services, contact Nick Crossley or add your name to the participants list. A mailing list has been set up - see opposite for the link.

Meetings

See ScmMeetings for details on meeting logistics, agendas, and minutes.
