We had our kickoff openSUSE Software Portal project meeting today.
The goals are to provide the best possible end-user experience with
regards to package installation/upgrading at large.
The idea is to provide several software components and services:
* a server backend that aggregates various kinds of information
* a web client, including one-click installation (yast2-mpp)
* a desktop client (GTK/Qt/YaST)
More information about the project:

Basic infrastructure is set up, so if you want to join the effort (any
help is more than welcome), please subscribe to our mailing-list [1]
We're definitely looking for Java/Python/YCP developers, web designers,
artwork designers, and people with ideas, suggestions, and motivation.
