Automatic Project Creation Come to Mozdev (Shorter Project Wait Times for All!)

It's been a long time coming, but your requests to speed up the project creation process are coming to fruition.

Over the past couple years there have been two major pain points in setting up new projects: tracking the requests to make sure they're handled properly and actually creating projects (CVS trees and websites, mailing lists and newsgroups, and bugzilla products). We finally have the tools in place to handle tracking the project requests and creating projects which should dramatically increase the response time of setting up new projects.

We still have some work to do; we need to automate setting up Bugzilla products and we'd like to make it easier for existing project owners to get new projects setup, but we're well on our way to making those things happen.

We'd like to bring some changes to our project request form as well; we need to add items for our new features like Drupal and Mercurial, but we'd like to make it even easier for someone to submit a project request without having a lot of choices get in their way. If you have any suggestions feel free to ring in.

So feel free to stop by and request a project, we'll get you set up in no time.
