upstream in the build service: GNOME:Apps:F-Spot. The goal is to let them easily ship packages for their stable and unstable branches, ideally for more than just openSUSE. If anybody wants to help make the packages build for distros != openSUSE, help is welcome.
Btw, I was wondering about that... Do we want to more actively help upstream with that? I'm sure it'd be relatively easy to find other upstream projects who'd love to get this set up, but they most probably need guidance initially, since they don't want to deal with packaging.
We do want to see upstream projects use OBS, so I welcome that kind of help!
My feeling is that once the packaging is correctly done for them, they generally can do the update without help, so that's really the first step which is difficult.
So, please help improving the documentation that next time you need to do less handholding ;) Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj@{novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
