I'd note that a key feature of FMN is that it provides human-readable summaries of messages. For fedmsg this is achieved through the fedmsg metadata system, and the Fedora providers for it: https://github.com/fedora-infra/fedmsg_meta_fedora_infrastructure/ for fedora-messaging, the intended way to do approximately the same thing is with message schemas: https://fedora-messaging.readthedocs.io/en/latest/messages.html#schema as part of modernizing FMN and rewriting it on fedora-messaging, we might well need to get fedora-messaging schema coverage up to a similar level as we have fedmsg meta coverage. We may want to see if we can come up with an automated or semi-automated process for converting fedmsg meta providers to fedora-messaging schemas, even... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
