| Issue 1829: | Provide support for proprietary licensed projects with private access. | |
| 87 people starred this issue and may be notified of changes. | Back to list |
What new or enhanced feature are you proposing? For fee hosting of Commercial Proprietary software projects. What goal would this enhancement help you achieve? I run a small consultancy in Atlanta, GA. I am looking for a good on line resource to host my projects. I, of course, expect to pay for this service. There are many but few have the features, integration and ease of use that Google code has. I use Google Apps for Domains to host my email and chat server already. Since my needs are small I have not upgraded to an enterprise account. If Google Code were provided in that way or separately I would be very much inclined to purchase that service. |

I will be also interested. If the repository will be distributed (like Git) it will be interested to also store a source code at Google server maybe. If not it will be very helpful to have wiki, downloads, issues etc. on public server so users could use it. We already have a domain registered with Google so it will be nice if it will be part of it. Of course it should be payed service. |

I'm also interested. I agree on all of the above. |

I would utilize this service as well. The pay to play web based repository services that are available now are lacking the 'google' polish. |

I am looking to start up a small project with the possibility of commercialization if everything goes well. Online source control seems like the future to me, and code.google.com has everything(and more) that I am looking for, aside from some kind of private option for small commercial endeavors. I love open source, and google has, once again, done a great job here, but we need a commercial license agreement, and private access. I would expect to pay for this kind of service. Thanks |

Issue #281. Seems related in that Google Sites for project communication, code hosting, and source control would be good to have in one package. http://code.google.com/p/support/issues/detail?id=281 |

I too am interested. Looking for a place to host subversion for not-necessarily-open-source code projects. Would be great to get Google Code's behavior without having to decide to open source all the code upfront. I use Google Apps and an enterprise account, but would pay for a subversion hosting service @ Google separately. |

good idea. I'm also in favor of this! |

Yeah, it would be great. I use Google Apps and I've been looking for some time for an issue tracker as simple as the one from Google Code. It would be great for reporting *all-purpose* issue tracking, not just for code- related ones. So please, release Google Code for Google Apps. Or at least your simple and effective issue tracking tool |

This gets my vote as well... please allow privacy. The issue tracker is a great tool for general, simple project / task management |

+1 - This would be great And/Or packaging google code or even just the issue tracker as a piece of software developers could use on private/not ready for primetime projects (Most OS offerings for issue trackers like Bugzilla/Trac are overkill or just too difficult for PM's and frustrating for developers). It'd be a "My Hero" type situation to be able to run google issue tracker privately. |

We looking for a place to host documentation/issues for a web API we're developing as well as open source that uses the API (client libraries), but we still want to have the ability to create private issues so that we can track internal issues (behind the API) we're not interested in sharing with/shouldn't concern users together with public issues so we can make a collective assessment of all issues. Also, we're thinking we'll want to work on internal versions of API version proposals before pushing them out publicly for comments so that we don't find ourselves awash in comments on issues we understand (a problem we experience on our forums). |

I'm particularly interested in the issue tracking tool. I would not like to share this with just anyone. It would be nice to be able to make a group of users who can have access. That would be a dream. |

I'll be glad if google can provide that for free depending on the project size. |

I create a lot of code that I do not consider ready for release or open viewing, it would be nice to be able to have either a small/tiny amount of storage for personal/private projects, or to pay for such access. |

I don't particularly care about hosting proprietary code, but some kind of private project type is also needed for open source projects. It doesn't make sense to start an open source project completely in the open from scratch because the initial mess will put people off. Right now, we have to run our own internal repositories until the code is ready for release, and then we have to shift everybody to Google Code if we want public hosting. I think this may not have been much of an issue for Google Code starting out because the initial projects checked in have likely been ongoing projects migrated from Sourceforge and/or private repositories. But the way it is, Google Code really discourages starting new projects. Forcing projects to be open from day zero also lowers the apparent overall code quality on Google Code, since many projects may not move beyond the initial stages and then become abandoned. It would be better if those projects weren't even visible. |

I couldn't disagree more. The world is littered with half-written junky code; that's no reason to hide it. Just don't *advertise* your project till it's ready. If someone happens to discover it by accident, make the front page clear that there's no running code yet, just experimental mess. In my experience, people don't run away screaming from immature projects (not if they're properly labeled, at least) -- it's that people run *towards* mature projects. Trying to hide a project until it's "not embarrassing" is just a form of insecurity, and I don't think it should be encouraged. |

I have a Google Apps Enterprise account for my business and I would absolutely love it if there was support for private code.google.com projects. There is just so much synergy that can go along with Google Apps -- it would really help increase the productivity of a lot of businesses. We plan on releasing our code as open source in the future, but we're first working on creating a working release and associated business model, so a private repository and general project management environment is a necessity. I suspect there are many others in exactly our position. I would gladly pay an additional fee for this support. |

Can I also vote for the amazing general issue management type stuff in gcode to be hived out and made available in another tool where you can set a private flag. |

I would love this feature. I am starting a University Industry collaboration and would like to share code with the company without it being open to the public. The pure research parts of the project will be published but the company needs to be able to keep their IP private. |

Would sign up and pay for google apps in a sec if I could integrate the issue tracker. Currently using trac, but it's not as nice as the google code issue tracker. |

I would also pay for having a "closed" google code project (I am currently paying for a small VPS for this reason). |

I definitely would be interested in a more complete set up of Google Code integrated with other products such as the Google Apps Enterprise... No more third-party version- control, when I also use Google App Engine for deployment, Google Sites, Google Groups, as also described by Issue 2651. |

I too agree on having google code for google apps aka google code for private business needs. It would be really great to have all the benefits of google code for private apps. Ya, I'm willing to pay for it. |

I was hoping to use google code to keep track of revision histories for a training manual that we publish in multiple languages...will have to just use a google doc for now. Please enable this for google apps users! It would be very useful. |

I'd be interested in using the two-factor authentication from Google Apps even for open source projects hosted on Google (possibly another advantage of Google Apps integration) |
