[Confectrician]

Hi,

I have already asked this some months ago in the community:
https://community.openhab.org/t/have-we-already-discussed-about-working-with-github-projects/33467?u=confectrician
There was no real discussion and the topic became inactive very fast.

Of course it is a bit unfortunate that only maintainters can create and edit projects.
But maybe this would be a good way for us 3 to document things like the linter refactoring over several repositories.

Wdyt?
Should we give it a try with that linter stuff?

Hey @Confectrician,
I'e tried projects in the past but it didn't stick. In general I think it's a cool thing but people would need to use it and that is rarely the case. Between the three of us I wouldn't mind trying it out for one task, here the linting and rewriting of all the binding READMEs. Feel free to dive in and get started!

I have no idea how the projects work and for now I am focusing on the linter work, but I am very happy if you go ahead with this, and if there is something I need to do as I am working through the bindings, just let me know.

[Confectrician]

Ok. I will then dive into it.

but people would need to use it and that is rarely the case.

Exactly that's the point, but if only 3 people have to use it for testing this should be better than 10 or more people who need to use it.

@bgilmer77
My idea is to create 'linting-refactoring' project where all of us 3 can link issues or pull requests.
When we all update the project regularly everyone knows the global state of the linting refactoring and even the opened pull requests.

if there is something I need to do
Only updating the project, when it exists and you do something.

So the main benefit i would like to have is a nice overview for all of us.
Those discussions here are a good start, but they're not made for such an overview.

(Of course i am perfectly fine with stopping projects, if they don't bring the benefit i/we would like to see.)

[bgilmer77]

I am not focused on this right now, but @Confectrician if you tell me what to do, i will do it.

[Confectrician]

I will do so, when the porject has been set up by me.

Great!
