Hi,
During the past year beagleboard support has leaped from 'unsupported'
to 'best supported machine in angstrom' and has seen a few 'demo'
releases (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beagleboard/), but
since other machines aren't so well support the 2008.X release has
been moved to 2009.X. Unless we get a coordinated effort going between
all machine mentors and testers, it would seem likely that 2009.X will
get moved to 2010.X :(
My proposal is to have machine mentors be able to create an image at
any time (see previous RFC about using the online image builder for
that) and upload it to the 'release' area after testing.
It would also mean that mentors can build images and upload them to a
'testing' area for people to test at anytime.
So, what do you all think about this?
In my opinion we should keep a stable branch and release Images for all
machines.
Move to new stable branch now.
We can keep the old images as unsupported. In fact they are unsupported
anyway because the current stable branch is dead?
Create new unstable branch.
Create an unsuppored category for machines without a mentor and let
users test the autobuilder/narcissius images.
Also have a tested and supported by mentors category where mentors can
upload or move images from sefbulid/autobulder/narcissius to.
This is quite what you suggested but we would keep a stable branch.
Best regards
Bernhard Guillon
