Dear
Staging Managers,
After
taking over maintainership for the Staging Dashboard engine from
you, we have been working on a new implementation
of
the Staging Workflow in order to make it easier to use, easier
to adopt for other distribution maintainers and easier to
maintain
for
us.
Another
benefit of pulling this into the OBS and make an 'official'
feature out of it, is that we can replace some of the
functionality
that
you have introduced with workarounds (such as
descriptions/comments to pass around data) by standard OBS/Ruby
on Rails
objects.
We think that some of the more serious problems you have right
now with notifications or tracking the history will be easier
to
solve for us for you.
So
this is the first release of the new Staging Workflow and we are
looking forward to get your feedback to ensure that we are on
the right way.
Please
be aware that this is a minimal viable product and far from
finished. We wanted to involve you in this early stage so we
get
the opportunity to learn from you if we move into the right
direction. We still have features to develop and details to
improve,
and
for that we need your guidance. As experienced users of the
Staging process, your feedback is very useful for us.
Rest
assured we are working on making this a complete OBS feature.
Please test as much as you can now and
do
not hesitate to
contact our product owner Henne (hvogel@suse.de), file
issues on github or talk
to any of us
(mail:
bs-team@suse.de, irc: chat.freenode.net/#opensuse-buildservice) if
you have any question
or suggestion.
We
are very
much looking
forward to your feedback!
Regards,
The
OBS Team
