I personally would prefer to start with fewer but common packages between all RPM distros (is there more than Red Hat and SUSE ?) than starting the process with 80, but I wouldn't object to that. > o exactly what namespace/prefix to use in the naming, I've seen lots of > opinions but I'm not clear if we have come to a decision > > o Should we use "rdo" in the packaging repo names and not "rpm"?

Well, we're (SUSE that is) are interested in sharing the packaging, and a non-RDO prefix would be preferred for the upstream coordination efforts. It is all a bit fuzzy for me right now as I'm not entirely sure our goals for packaging are necessarily the same (e.g. we have the tendency to include patches that have not been merged but are proposed upstream and are +1'ed already into our packages should there be a pressing need for us to do so (e.g. fixes an important platform bug), but maybe we can find enough common goals to make this a benificial effort for all of us. There are quite some details to sort out as our packaging is for historical and for various policy reasons that we need to stick to slightly different than the RDO packaging. I think going over those and see how we can merge them in a consolidated effort (or maintain two variants together) is the first step IMHO. Another important point for us is that we start with equal rights on the upstream collaboration (at least on the RPM side, I am fine with decoupling and not caring about the deb parts). I'm not overly optimistic that a single PTL would be able to cover both the DEB and RPM worlds, as I perceive them quite different in details.
