Thanks for sharing these ideas :) I've thought something along those lines myself, ie, providing local dependancy resolution (which is really what the osc client asks for from the OBS when doing a local build) as a service, making 'osc build''s able to happen offline without precaching the exact buildinfo in the first place. My only comment on this, as it looks great, is that it could be good to somehow center it around plugins for 'osc' (osc takes plugins, made in python), as to make the transformation between 'light obs' and 'normal obs' transparent. Mostly to make training simpler and easier to explain. /Carsten > > The file is on the MeeGo Wiki. > > http://wiki.meego.com/images/SpecOBSLight-1_V-0-6.pdf > > -- > Dominig ar Foll > MeeGo TV > Open Source Technology Centre > Intel SSG > > _______________________________________________ > MeeGo-distribution-tools mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-distribution-tools > _______________________________________________ MeeGo-distribution-tools mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-distribution-tools
