as you know I wrote a post about Fedora Packaging Guidelines [1]. I was working on it during last three weeks (but a little, so it takes a long time :)) and nowadays I'm ready to import a Fedora's content to en.opensuse.org wiki. Now it is on pack.suse.cz [2]. I also checked that none of that page conflicts with an existing content on openSUSE wiki, so it can be imported easily.
Tom Callaway [3] from RedHat confirms me that a Guidelines are under Open Publication License [4] and we can use it for SUSE without restrictions. He was also interested on future collaboration and offers some meeting on LinuxTag - it would be nice if anyone from SUSE will be ready to start a discussion.
Before import I'd like to ask:
Have you done the import? I would like to use these updated Guidelines for the new project we are discussing about an openSUSE LTS or openSLES. I think it is important that we use what ever you have done and the consensus that happened with them. I think we should have rpm lint checks that let us know where we need to make changes in openSUSE and any other SUSE related project. Thanks,
