On the opensuse-packaging mailing list, we've recently formed a team that will take care of the packaging guidelines and introduced a small process to change them: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_guidelines_change_process
As part of that process, we're announcing regularly the changes to the packaging guidelines. Since this is a first such announcement, it is not a complete change but just points out a few things from the past few months. In the future, we will send out this email once a month.
The Packaging guidelines can be found at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_guidelines .
That sounds great! I'm quite new to most of this, but I just wanted to mention / confess that in the last few days I have been attempting to improve http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_Ruby based on discussions on opensuse-ruby. There are still some unanswered questions which hopefully will be resolved very shortly. I very much like the idea of enforcing policy by extending rpmlint; however it seems that some people are happy to ignore rpmlint warnings :-/ I guess the badness numbers could be tweaked to deal with this. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
