Hi folks, for quite some time I have failed to contribute to openSUSE in the way I used to. This will probably not change in the near future. I want to drop the following responsibilities soon: most server:php:applications (phpunit, pear packages from php.net, some frameworks) at (the daemon, yes) Reasons: Most importantly: Lack of directions. PHP projects like phpunit are moving away from the PEAR package format which is the basis for most semi-automated RPM packaging processes. There is a lack of interest in the community to discuss any follow-up format (like wrapping composer-format libraries into RPM) and with all the modern deployment tools around, there is also shrinking interest in using rpm-packaged scripting libraries. This is also true for ruby, where the most popular deployments provide and manage local library bundles for each application/stack. It's essentially anti-distribution. I have no answer to that and I think it's best to stop here. Other reasons: General workload - I currently don't even have time for horde which I want to KEEP Interest in new projects but no spare time The kind and tone of some discussions in openSUSE lists -- Ralf Lang Linux Consultant / Developer Tel.: +49-170-6381563 Mail: lang@b1-systems.de B1 Systems GmbH Osterfeldstraße 7 / 85088 Vohburg / http://www.b1-systems.de GF: Ralph Dehner / Unternehmenssitz: Vohburg / AG: Ingolstadt,HRB 3537
