Ok. I'll send the email to Adrian next week. Meanwhile I'll try to set up my own buildservice on a virtual machine and see how difficult would be to add the appliance things. By the way, JeOS is about 350MB. I think there is still some stuff that can be remove, but I'll try that on a later stage (like documentation and some Perl-Modules).
I do have a question for the factory guys. AppArmor is in the minimal system. Should be this way? If we create a software appliance and not configure properly AppArmor, would not that be a problem more than a benefit? Or is it a good idea to have AppArmor even though it is not configured (or configured with the default configuration)?
thanks,

Hi AJ,
thanks for the email. Actually I am basing the JeOS on the minimal pattern. I tried to set up a project on the buildservice that was linking all the minimal pattern rpms (and dependencies), so software appliances could be projects on the buildservice that where build on JeOs project (from a technical point of view. The UI may be a new web application). However, some rpms are missing (the kernel for example) and it looked like I could not set up my project as a build platform.
This is something to discuss with the Build Service guys - perhaps on their list.
That makes me consider installing my own build service and define JeOS as a build platform and then modify the web UI or make a new one that runs the kiwi and is more software appliance oriented. That will have a lot of sense, especially when multiple build services can be connected.
Meanwhile, I've started conversations with possible sponsors, so I am looking for a very good server with very good bandwith, and that is not costless ;) . However the conversations are still in a very early stage.
So, what do you think is the best approach? Especially for updating to the new versions of JeOS to the new openSUSE versions.
I suggest you talk with Adrian next week (he's currently travelling) and see what's possible, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Director Platform / openSUSE, aj@suse.de SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126 ______________________________________________ Enviado desde Correo Yahoo!
