A presentation and a sugestion
Hello, I'm Guillermo Ballester Valor. I began many time ago to write my own rpms (for suse distro). First it was for fun, then I asked me whether those rpm could be useful for others and so I create my own apt repository. This was first hosted in my own home computer. Because I built many popular rpms ( amsn, amule ...) my narrow ADSL bandwith began to be saturated and I asked for help in the suse list. Hapily, I receive help from two persons, one was Radu Voicu who is mirroring my repo at ftp://ftp.ploiesti.rdsnet.ro/pub/mirrors/ftp.oxixares.com/rpms and the other was the team Richard Boss /Eberhard Moenkeberg who offered me the possibitlty to create a repo in gwdg.de site. And 'suser-gbv' repos start its life. I would like to build rpms for X86_64 but I can't at the moment because I haven't access to a x86_64 system. I have planned to buy one many times but always found other better (and urgent) way to spend the money, you know. At this point, I'm wondering whether SuSE/Nowell can give access to some suser's to build the rpms in any of its machines. I'm not sure about the posibility to do that without root access, but I would be a big help for some of packager guys (as me). I'm not suggesting a compilation farm, which is oriented to the development. I'm meaning some rpm-builder machines. This would have also the advantage to build in machines with standard configuration/packages in it. What do you think?

Exactly that is what the build server that will start to come in early 2006 (http://www.opensuse.org/Roadmap) is all about. Providing build power, different architectures, better build time checks, meta data generation etc. to packagers. Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, http://hennevogel.de "To die. In the rain.
