Hi folks,

during our never-ending quest in cleaning up OBS projects, I encountered some projects which could easily be merged:

network:messaging (1 pkg) network:messaging:amqp (5 pkg) I agree, especially as nobody currently seems to care about the packages in network:messaging:amqp it had submitrequest hanging there for > 4 month until Sascha (who's actually not directly a maintainer of that project) was nice enough to review them.

The same is for me :) Anyway. What is the difference between server:messaging and network:messaging? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org

Well, in "server:messaging" there should be only the server-side programs (deamons), similar to apache in server:httpd.

"network:messaging" could be both, server and clients (gui+cli).

That's afaik, please correct if wrong.

I don't know the answer so I can't correct you, but it's worth observing the description text for both projects: server:messaging: Packages related to e-mail and instant messaging. network:messaging: General message queue protocols and libraries. This suggests that the former is more concerned with user-oriented messaging in the application layer, whereas the latter is targetted at non-user messaging i.e. middleware. If that is incorrect, the descriptions should be updated (and it would be helpful if they were extended regardless, to minimise ambiguity). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
