Core

Status

Lot of fun with GNOME this week. Random stuff broke, then was fixed. Some still not quite fixed, but work is progressing.

Repoview has been turned on for rawhide repositories. Each arch will have its own repoview. Fedora Core 5 archs should have repoview enabled as well once it gets released. Fedora Extras already uses repoview. Repoview is a set of html pages generated from the repository information. Read more about it here .

Kadischi

  • Matt Bird wrote a quick Perl script that sets the Gnome desktop image and changes the run level of the Live CD.
  • Some Contributors are looking forward to execute on Redhat Enterprise 3 and 4 and on CentOS.
  • JasperHartline too is working on a script that can create RAWHIDE CDs. It is still incomplete.
  • JeremyKatz confirms that it is reasonable to use squashfs for the live CD.
  • MichaelKeary clarifies on what does the maintainer of the project do

Code, design, accepts patches, fixes bugs, communicates with contributors, that sort of thing.

  • BillNottingham announced that near future he will be integrating the stuff for readonly-root into the base OS; i.e. most of the stuff in rc/ shouldn't be needed any more. In the end, all that kadischi will need to do will be write the /etc/sysconfig/readonly-root file. He will do his best to not break kadischi too much without sending patches.
