Hi all,
Both contrib wiki page and the candidate packages wiki page are growing rapidly, which is a good sign.
Links: http://en.opensuse.org/Contrib http://en.opensuse.org/Contrib/packages
However, We still haven't really started. I think we should.
There is one open question: contrib-updates.
What about updates for single packages in that repository? If the repository is frozen after the release, we need an additional repository just for packages containing bugfixes and security fixes. Who will maintain this additional repository? Who will review the packages submitted there? Should there be patches like for the official openSUSE packages available?
I would prefer to keep updates to the minimum - only critical bugfixes and critical security fixes.
As for distribution - I don't know if we need a separate branch for updates, but I think yes, having separate branch for updates is a good idea. Not sure what we will implement.
Any ideas on this should be handled? I don't think it should be frozen 100%, but kept updated for bugfixes only
