We are not really competing -- we are booth driving smart adoption. The biggest challenge in collaboration is the fact that Pascal offers some .channel files, that we at Novell can't ship for different reasons.
Right. Another point is that the BS repos don't have much visibility as of now, at least not as much as mine.
Well, we'll see what the best option is. Maybe working together on only one smart package would be better, and just provide a link to a big .channel file with the repos that may not be shipped within a smart package hosted on the BS...
Although, frankly, I get a lot of mails and feedback of people who really appreciate that they just had to install the one smart package from my repo and everything was set up properly.
I'm not sure I'd want to break this or make it more complicated for end-users.
Why don't you pool your efforts in developing one smart version but package it in two ways: without the problematic .channel files via the build server and with the .channel files via Pascals own repository. But the actual smart development could be completely in sync.
