The Monkeysphere Community

Mailing list

The Monkeysphere project is a new project with just one mailing list at the moment. Its where we roll our sphere, discuss development issues, the project, and various complicated conundrums involving subjects around the web of trust.

Join us, we're a friendly bunch. You can also look through our archives if you don't believe us.

Internet Relay Chat

We're currently holding down an IRC channel on the irc.oftc.net network. You can find us in #monkeysphere if you prefer to communicate this way.

Development

The Monkeysphere uses a distributed development model with git. Once you've installed git, you can git clone from this web site:

git clone git://git.monkeysphere.info/monkeysphere

If you would like to build a deb package from the latest release, you can type the following from inside the monkeysphere top level directory:

make debian-package

This command will build an upstream tarball, attach the debian packaging directory, and build a sample deb.

If you want to help extend the scope of the Monkeysphere, take a look at our list of environments that could make use of the project.

Individual developer repositories

You might also be interested in the repositories of individual developers, which may contain branches or features not yet in the main offering:

Contact

Please feel free to contact any of the Monkeysphere developers or post to the mailing list with questions, comments, bug reports, requests, etc. If you contact a developer individually, please indicate if there is any part of your note that can be made public (we might want to post it to the web here).
