[Mageia-sysadm] Main tasks for the next days

Tue Nov 16 00:12:39 CET 2010

Hello,
+
+As was decided in tonight IRC meeting, the priority tasks for sysadmin in
+the next days will be :
+ * the configuration of pam_ldap, nss_ldap, and everything needed to
+   allow commits from LDAP accounts on SVN
+ * the configuration of forums with LDAP accounts (to be finished)
+ * the configuration of sympa mailing lists server using LDAP for users
+   authentication
+
+We will then be able to provide SVN accounts to more people to work on
+other things in parrallel while we finish the setup of the build system.
+And create teams mailing lists.
+
+Regarding the packages repository in SVN :
+ * we will import all packages from source RPMs, using repsys, splitting
+   binary and spec files on separate svn repositories
+ * work will start to clean the packages from all Mandriva references,
+   logos, copyrighed contents, etc ... When finished, the binary
+   repository history will be erased.
+
+Regarding the soft/ repository :
+ * misc will send an email to discuss a new soft/ repository
+   organisation
+ * we will import a copy of the Mandriva soft/ repository as
+   svn.mageia.org/soft-cleaning, and will use this repository to clean
+   all projects. Each project when ready will be imported in the new
+   soft/ repository (when the new organisation has been decided). The
+   soft-cleaning repository will only be used to do the cleaning work
+   and will be erased when finished.
