[opensuse-project] Maintainers wanted for Dracut and Plymouth
by Raymond Wooninck 04 Feb '14

04 Feb '14

Hi, I have come to the point where I can no longer maintain the two packages Dracut and Plymouth. It has already been quite some time that I did anything with the two packages and I found myself lucky that some other people made some updates and fixes to it. The reason why I am looking for new maintainers is simply due to: 1) Lack of time on my side 2) Specific required knowledge I hope that somebody will step up to take the maintenance of these two packages, otherwise according to the Factory rules unmaintained packages should be removed.

[opensuse-project] Timeline and roadmap V2
by Michal Hrusecky 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

Hi all, As you know we had a week-long meeting in Nuremberg. Quite a few of the things we've been working on (openQA, OBS workflow etc) were shared by now. Besides discussing features, we scheduled our work. In the previous thread on $SUBJECT, Simon noted that going for a release in November seemed a far smarter compromise between the benefits of releasing and getting some improvements in our tool chain than skipping a release. Most of the team agreed on this right away and we'd like to go for that. However. This does not mean the initial idea of doing a more 'relaxed' release is off the table. Planning software development is hard, planning experimentation (like the staging projects we are toying with) is impossible so we can not predict when we will be done. This means that we still intend to take those of you who stepped forward to help out with the release up on their offer. The exact nature of what we release is still to be determined and we'd like to make a more final decision on how much effort we can and will put in in August. So far it is sure that we would need some volunteer to keep eye on Factory and release milestones at least till then. So, for now, this will be a 'community release'. This might mean less QA but also no security updates provided by SUSE! Especially if it comes to the latter case we should communicate this carefully to our users as it will be more like a slightly more stabilized milestone than a successor to openSUSE 13.1. How to call it, how to communicate and what exactly it will look like - August. When exactly we will be fully back to working on Factory, releasing milestones, and working on the release we will hopefully be able to determine in August as well. Thoughts?
