[opensuse-factory] Is driver:wireless without a maintainer?
Hello, about two months ago I submitted a package to driver:wireless without hearing anything more. Yesterday I tried to contact the maintainer (vbotka) directly but the email bounced. Is there someone else who is in charge? Regards -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Not sure if hschaa is, but maybe you would like to? Petr

Hmm, the project is a big mess. It contains packages which are in their devel projects elsewhere. And sometimes packaged differently. For example most (maybe all) the firmwares should be deleted (kernel-firmware contains them). wireless-regdb, and iw live elsewhere and should be only linked here (if anything).

There was this longer thread in September which you are referring to : http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2014-09/msg00163.html I still think, that this complete DRIVER: project should be removed!

The only meaningful package rfkill has been moved to the hardware project. Its develproject has been changed a minute ago too. So driver:wireless has been killed right now 8-).

Thats quite easy, none of the drivers:* projects are actually used for developement of Factory. So nobody involved in the Factory seen your request. Only the two people that are there, god knows how active. It would be actually nice to mandate all these projects to be home projects or actually linked to factory. And all devel projects should contain only packages that are in Factory (or planned to be sent there) [or linked from other devel project]. Cheers Tom

I don't have any objections against that, but I can't do this. It would be a good time to clean up: drivers:acpi : 7 years no change drivers:webcam : projets between 4 and 8 years old (is the buildservice already that old?) drivers:wlan : all repos removed by admin drivers:platform: 6 years no change drivers:isci 6 years no change drivers:scsi: 7 years no change drivers:filesystem : emtpy Looks, as if I'm the only one maintaining the projects drivers:nic/intel-e1000e and drivers:io/snx There as some other drivers in drivers:nic which are no longer maintained and which might not be used anymore. I could move my two projects and "drivers:" could be completely removed. Best regards, Johannes Am 11.09.14 um 13:33 schrieb Jan Engelhardt:

drivers:acpi : 7 years no change
The only package in there, acer_acpi, it would seem that it might have been obsoleted by general advances kernel development plus the acer_wmi.ko module (also shipped in kernel). Delete the prj.
drivers:webcam : projets between 4 and 8 years old (is the buildservice already that old?)
Yes, it is that old.
drivers:wlan : all repos removed by admin
That might have been the (semi-)automatic removal, i.e. admin deleted unsupported openSUSE versions, but no one added repos for new versions. It would not make much sense either, all packages are obsoleted. ipw2200 -> ipw2x00.ko in kernel, rt2500 -> rt2500pci.ko in kernel, zd1211 -> zd1211rw.ko in kernel. Delete the prj.
drivers:platform: 6 years no change
applesmc .. is in the kernel. Delete prj.
drivers:isci 6 years no change
iscsitarget... was that not the Redhat ISCSI, which is now obsolete, because the kernel has LIO? So yeah. And open-iscsi is in /network. Delete prj.
drivers:scsi: 7 years no change drivers:filesystem : emtpy
Delete. The filesystem repo is at, well, /filesystems.
Looks, as if I'm the only one maintaining the projects
drivers:nic/intel-e1000e
In principle, the drivers are in the kernel too. Intel however releases e1000 updates as a standalone tarball too (at least did so a year ago), and someone might be hot for it.

Hmm... I am using those drivers at some systems where I hab problems with the kernel drivers, so I'm still maintaining them.

Maybe move those that you maintain into the "hardware:" project? That way the "driver:" project would be open to removal. Even if not closing "driver:", reducing the structure to the still maintained parts would be a help, not just for OBS, but also for those that seek a specific piece of software. - Yamaban. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
