In order to avoid confusion, +</I>><i> we wont use the name "restricted" as it was used in MDV commercial products. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Now all of theese medias will have their 5 submedias: release, updates, +</I>><i> updates_testing, backports, backports_testing. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> That brings us to 30 medias in total :) +</I>><i> +</I>><i> The details of the media layout suggestion is also at the end of this +</I>><i> mail, and at: <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=mirrors_policy</A> +</I>><i> +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Now... +</I>><i> +</I>><i> We wont blindly import every package from cooker, instead we'll +</I>><i> start off the import with basesystem (as in bootable system with +</I>><i> shell access), compiler and rpm tools (and of course their buildtime +</I>><i> depencies). When all of that is imported and rebuilt, we have a working +</I>><i> buildsystem / base to build from. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Then we to go on with and start importing X, the different +</I>><i> DE's and every other package needed to build a full distro. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> By doing it this way, we get a clean start, every package rebuilt, +</I>><i> and no old/unmaintained stuff in the beginning. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Then as more maintainers join, I guess more packages will be imported +</I>><i> from cooker and other sources. And packages can always be requested. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> As for those that want the core/extra split: +</I>><i> We already tried it with main/contrib split. And I know mdv is now +</I>><i> trying to refine what belongs in main or not, but thats for mdv +</I>><i> to work through the "problem" as it wont be an easy task. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> For us I think the best way for now is to start with this suggested +</I>><i> layout, and see if it works well for us. Remember, as Michael pointed +</I>><i> out, this is a community supported distro, and only time will tell how +</I>><i> well the community actually will support their distro. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Point is, if we later decide this is not working well, we can always +</I>><i> review the decisions and if decided do the split. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Can we reach an agreement that this is the way to start the distro? +</I>><i> +</I> +OK for me provided support policy matters are not discarded forever but only delayed to allow things to start. + +It would be great to start QA Team's organization as soon as possible. I don't think we need to wait for the BS and the packages to begin thinking about those matters. + +Regards + +Samuel + +</PRE> + + + + + + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="001544.html">[Mageia-dev] Mirror layout, round two +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="001552.html">[Mageia-dev] Mirror layout, round two +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#1545">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#1545">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#1545">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#1545">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
