The user rights are one thing of concern: games will now have approx 30 - 40 comiters I think, number is probably growing. One issue I can see there is the way people are approved to write in a project. I remember myself: basically asking on the ML and a few minutes later the rights are granted. This is very good for the growth of the system, but how can we guarantee a certain level of trust for the user like this? The suggested trust model so far is nice, but as long as all those information is only on the web and not in any package manager, they are most likely never to be seen. But that's another discussion...
Don't give every user the right to manage the whole repository, but give the users only rights in their own packages. This reduces the number of people a lot.
For new packages, one of the maintainers of the repository must be asked to create it, but that happens not so often compared to the daily work.
Yes, and addition to that we will make it lot easier to work from outside of the project. This means everybody can contribute, but only the people inside of a project or package can approve the change. This would lead to a situation where you can first request changes (aka patches when people work on cvs/svn) and can later on decide to give write rights or not. Timeline for this is end of next month :) But you can actually already play with some of the features, look at the "osc submitreq" command. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
