Hello openSUSE,
We've just had a meeting with Cisco regarding providing easy access to
the openh264 codec to the openSUSE users.
The outcome is that Cisco will help us with the redistribution side by
utilizing the ciscobinary.openh264.org host. There seems to be more
space for collaboration that could lead to the usage of OBS in some
more of Cisco's open-source-related processes. OBS seems to be a good
fit as we can cover builds for multiple distributions and image builds.
Big thanks to Neal Gompa for raising this topic. Neal was really
shining on the call :-)
We seem to found the right people for the job, and the rest of the
discussion will happen in the email thread with selected people.
I'm really excited about the current direction of conversation as Cisco
seems to be very enthusiastic about further collaboration with openSUSE
and Open Build Service.
Big thanks to Ann for making this meeting happen. And also big thanks
to Neal, Adrian, Fabian, and Bernhard for being our technical experts
on the call. Release management was represented on the call by me and
Stefan Weiberg.
