A good way to begin would be by: + noting what tools (viz. rpmlint, mock) etc are used by the current Package Review Process + noting what steps of the Package Review Process can be automated (eg. slurping the srpm from the BZ#, running the Guideline specific tests and spewing an output) moving on to figuring out how much of the 'Guidelines' can be coded into the system to make it a bit more intelligent and of course having all this with a backend database This of course assumes that we accept the premise that fedora-qa is a good conceptual starting or jump-off point, but not r-o-m. That would be a newer tool and perhaps not a rebase of fedora-qa -- http://www.gutenberg.net - Fine literature digitally re-published http://www.plos.org - Public Library of Science http://www.creativecommons.org - Flexible copyright for creative work _______________________________________________ Fedora-india mailing list Fedora-india@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india
