Heads up for rawhide: rebase of texi2html fro 1.82 to 5.0

2014-09-09 Thread Phil Knirsch

Hi everyone.

Just a quick heads up that i've just quickly rebased texi2html to the 
current version. It's been a long standing request and i finally got 
around to do it quickly.


As the jump is quite high i'm not sure if everything works out fine, so 
let me know if you're using texi2html and something breaks.


Thanks!

Re: systemd dependencies

2014-08-27 Thread Phil Knirsch
 our core OS stuff is full of it. I think you
underestiate the complexity of this.


There's actually been some analysis done of this and people are
actively working to reduce them.

Peter



Exactly, as i've said, doing that manually is rather insane (see 
http://www.harald-hoyer.de/2014/01/14/self-hosting-fedora-base/ for some 
funny graphics regarding this), and the dependency creep that happened 
in Fedora over the past 10+ years is really the cause of it.


So addressing this and focusing then on the 80% of the real issues 
instead of picking and tiny bits left and right will yield a much bigger 
bang for the buck, therefore as long as systemd itself doesn't start to 
do cyclic dependencies i'm personally fine with it being pulled in 
occasionally.


Thanks & regards, Phil

2014-08-22 Thread Phil Knirsch
Thanks to Lennart for joining our meeting today. We really only covered 
the subpackage config topic today and Lennart gave a very detailed and 
long explanation of the systemd and /etc handling with some ideas and 
outlooks for the future and we discussed some of the specifics where needed.


Vaclav will be putting together a more detailed and summarized email 
early next week to Fedora development to kick off a public discussion 
around some of the ideas we discussed and talked about today.


The other topics unfortunately had to be postponed to next week's 
meeting now as we kinda ran out of time.


Thanks & regards, Phil

2014-08-14 Thread Phil Knirsch

Hi everyone.

As several people are still traveling tomorrow after post Flock things 
happening in Brno we're canceling the meeting for tomorrow.


Next week we'd like to see if we can invite Lennart Poettering for a 
systemd discussion around Docker.


Thanks & regards, Phil

[Base] Fedora Base Design Working Group (2014-07-18) meeting minutes and logs

2014-07-25 Thread Phil Knirsch

Summary:

 - More status updates this week from moben, especially around some of 
the first fixes that he's currently working on with upstreams. 
Discussions with harald and others about various approaches.


 - pknirsch forgot that Vaclav was in London this week, so just briefly 
talked about him and shared some experiences we've had with him. Will do 
the proper discussion and voting next week.

[Base] Fedora Base Design Working Group (2014-07-11) meeting minutes and logs

2014-07-25 Thread Phil Knirsch

Summary:

 - moben aka Benekdit Morbach presented some of his first results of 
builreq analysis and wrote a tool for that[1]. Will work with haraldh, 
vpavlin and others on related topics.
 - Talked with Michal Sekletar and accepted him as a WG member. His 
focus is docker and container technologies.
 - Vaclav Pavlin demonstrated the latest Fedora 20 based docker images, 
only 133MB in size[2] generated via a kickstart file[3]


Lively discussion around docker, anaconda and rel-eng followed those 
docker focus topics.


Mattdm then followed with 2 1/2 additional topics:

1a. Identifying different Fedora products -- fedora-release-* contents 
and /etc/os-release
1b. having tools like yum and dnf talk to mirror manager in a way which 
lets us count product installs

2. a "generic fedora" netinstall

For 1a and 1b dgilmore, sgallagh and mattdm have already done a larger 
thread on fedora-devel ML to discuss the proper approach and solution. 
Several ideas already in place, just need to be implemented(tm).


Some more discussions past that about 2. and related items (install 
trees vs. images etc).

Hi everyone.


Hello everyone,



As Bill Nottingham has decided to resign from the committee we now
have a free seat that we'd like to fill with another person.

In order to fill this seat i'm therefore reaching out here to Fedora
development to offer allow any applicant from the community to get
in touch with us and let us know you're interested, why you're
interested, why you think you'd be a good fit and maybe even the
things you'd like to drive or accomplish in the Base Design WG.


I am interested in becoming a member of Base Design WG. I'd like help
with
accomplishing goals of Base WG and make sure that we provide minimal
but solid
foundation for others to build upon.

I believe my previous experience makes me a good fit for this position :
   * Red Hat employee since 2011, now member of "Plumbers" group
   * maintainer and contributor to various networking related projects
   * systemd maintainer in RHEL

I'd like to help with integration of upstream changes in key
components to the
distribution and making sure they are not disruptive. Another area
where I'd
like to contribute are container use cases of Fedora Base. Ensuring we
provide
minimal, but easily extensible platform for sand-boxed/containerized
apps.



For more background on what the Base WG does, here our Fedora wiki:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Base

In order to contact us you can either reply directly to me or join
us during our regular meetings each Friday at 15:00 UTC on
#fedora-meeting.

I strongly suspect next weeks meeting will be canceled due to the US
holiday, but after that we'll be doing weekly meetings again.

Looking forward to see you there!

Thanks & regards, Phil

[Base] Fedora Base Design Working Group (2014-04-11) meeting minutes and logs

2014-04-11 Thread Phil Knirsch
Main discussion points were a quick recap and discussion about last 
weeks topics:


 - Pro active deprecation of unused/old packages

Discussed this a bit and agreed to work on a more formal/official 
announcement for each release using a typical 2 stage process with 
deprecation for next release and removal/obsolete in the one following 
that and a reminder of packages being obsoleted in the next release.


 - Merge reviews

jreznik & dgilmore will work on those (reminder & potentially other 
actions).


The second topic was system wide change discussion in Fedora. Notting 
brought up the empty securetty one and we agreed that the counter 
proposal from mattdm was better. Jreznik will communicate that and 
follow up on the announcement.

2014-03-21 Thread Phil Knirsch

Hi all.

Agenda for today was discussing the tech spec that masta wanted to 
write. Unfortunately due to his other workload he wasn't able to 
complete it by today, so we postponed the discussion to next week.


In the openfloor session we brought up a topic from jreznik about any 
requirements Base might have for docs, but we didn't find anything new, 
just the "old" installer and other core items. Once the tech spec is 
done we'll double check if anything new came up and if so contact docs 
of course.


Next weeks meeting will be held by masta as i'm on PTO the whole next week.

Thats all!

Thanks & regards, Phil

2014-03-14 Thread Phil Knirsch

Main topics for today was meeting time & tech specs.

On the topic of meeting time we agreed to keep the meeting at 15:00 UTC 
for now.


For tech specs we did a quick 2nd review of the changes lately to 
Workstation and Server, but none of the changes there are critical for Base.


Agreed to start putting together a draft for a Tech Spec for Base as 
well, masta going to take care of it. Draft will be reviewed next Friday.


Last but not least on Open Floor dgilmore brought up the topic of 
requirements that Base might have for all products, e.g. install trees 
and/or DVD install media. He'll follow up with the Workstation WG about 
this as their plans currently don't include a DVD media or install 
trees, just a Live media that can be burned on a DVD.

Agreed.

As an aside, I've missed this meeting the past couple of weeks because
I'm inept at calendar entries.  Just to make sure, we're sticking with
the current UTC time it is at now for future meetings right?  The US
switches to DST this weekend and the EU does at the end of the month.
Could get confusing.

Right, i remember the month of clock switch hell. And yes, i'd propose 
to stick with UTC for now. Even if it doesn't work for a few folks 
things should settle down in 3-4 weeks.


Thanks & regards and have a great weekend!

2014-02-21 Thread Phil Knirsch
Main meeting agenda for today was a discussion about the Workstation 
Tech Spec and any implications, changes or actions it would require from 
Base.


Matthias Clasen from the Workstaing WG joined us today and every a long 
discussion and review specifically around the  Core Services and 
Features part we've came to the conclusion that at this point with only 
the Workstation WG tech spec there were no actions or changes required 
by Base yet.


Once the other WGs provide theirs we will revisit that and see where 
overlaps, conflicts or items might come up that need to be resolved at 
the Base level.


Installer is still a hot topic, but thats nothing we could resolve 
during our meeting and which might have to be brought up with FESCO again.

Hi!
Matthias presented on Desktop list [1] initial Technical Specification
document for Workstation product [2]. I expect other WGs will come with
similar document soon to fulfil FESCo request. But the discussion on
desktop list steered towards what should be in Base and what in products
and if bottom up or top down approach should be used to define Base (and
truth is probably as always somewhere in the middle). It's great to see
technical requirements from WS WG that could help our group see if it
fits to our vision, if we want to extend it based on this document etc.
And there are sections we already decided this functionality belong to
Base aka installer (even WS has a bit different requirements compared
to current installer so flexibility in design should be let in this WG).

Let's discuss it on Friday's Base WG meeting, Phil, could you add to
the agenda?

Btw. as Base use devel list - I'd like to ask other WGs to ping us
once they have tech spec document available for review.

Yesterday we spoke at Env and Stacks WG about Fedora additional

Will be the content experimental? Would it be the content just
developing (not good for main Fedora repository) or simply not good to

I would love to hear your use-cases, so Env WG could create policy and
workflow for such repo.

Currently, it looks like it could contain also packages, which will be
good for main repo in the future. The repository should have only
minimal rules, not standard review, no conflicts among packages, ... You
can follow whole discussion here [1], but no conclusion yet, just ideas.

Another question is if for example Ruby collection needed by OpenShift
(Cloud WG) will be needed in main repo or it could be installed from

Thanks for your input,

Sorry for the late reply, darn DevConf plague struck me last week quite 
badly.


I would have one concrete example that probably would apply for a host 
of other packages:


Right now Daniel Vratil is using COPRS to package and provide the latest 
early version of KDE5 resp. KF5 as it's called now.


As those packages are actually destined to be be part of Fedora proper 
over the next months i think an incubator repository would be an 
excellent idea for early development next release version of software. 
Lower hurdle to get packages in, don't need to yet follow the FPC fully 
but which at some point are expected to move to Fedora and where a 
better visibility then COPRS repositories provides would be great. And 
this could work i think for many other projects too, where early access 
test packages could be provided for the Brave and the Free. :)


Not sure if that would apply to your idea of the experimental/incubator 
repository, but i'd love to see something like that to be honest.


Basically a middle ground between Fedora proper and COPRS.

Thanks & regards, Phil

2014-02-14 Thread Phil Knirsch
Covered a quick update on the cleanup work with some nice progress 
(first changes landing!).


Moved over to a quick recap of DevConf. Excellent conf there with a 
panel of the Fedora WG representatives for Q&A.


Last but not least requirements checkup, at the moment mainly focused on 
rel-eng, so dgilmore volunteered to do a writeup of what he knows 
already will be needed.

Apologies for the late notice everyone, but as i've been head of heels 
in tons of other work the past week and quite a few folks are either 
traveling or attending FOSDEM this weekend we're canceling the meeting 
today.


Next week we'll have to see with a lot of people being at DevConf in 
Brno/CZ whether we can do a meeting or not, but i'll send out an notice

2014-01-17 Thread Phil Knirsch
Meeting minutes. Main points are now to take action on the data Harald 
Hoyer produced and contact the 65 package maintainers of potential 
immediate cleanup candidates or if not generally fixable for a 
%bootstrap flagging.


Inter WG coordination we think would be best tackled by a cross team 
coordinator for which jreznik sort-of volunteered in ticket 1220.


Everyone is still expected to read through the other WGs PRDs to 
understand the plans they have.


Last but not least dgilmore proposed a kickstart for Base as well (like 
all other WGs did) to allow installation testing of Base only.

[Base] Fedora Base Design Working Group (2013-12-20) meeting minutes and logs

2013-12-20 Thread Phil Knirsch

Main topic was the discussion of how to proceeded with the BR cleanup idea.

One key point that was brought up that this whole effort obviously 
relies on working closely with the maintainers of affected packages.


So the first big step is contacting all of them in order to ask them 
whether they think this is a good idea and would like to work with us on 
doing this.


One of the next steps is then to start providing more information about 
BRs that could potentially be dropped. Plan is to automate this with 
some scripts and have the scripts and reports so that maintainers could 
either run the checks themselves or look at the reports we provide.

What about BRs which are needed, but the script removes because of
transitive dependencies? IMO, BuildRequires: foo-devel getting you
bar-devel, which is also needed, without listing bar-devel means you now
depend on foo-devel not losing that dependency.

Right, but shouldn't that then lead to the package building fine but the 
binary packages would miss some requires?


Or am i missing something here?

That's still not really enough; that metadata doesn't express anything
*close* to all the possible capabilities of a package. Not saying this
isn't a good idea, just that it should involve careful manual double
checking of compose logs and the like.

We already have AutoQA running rpmdiff and rpmguard tests on new builds,
btw. I doubt it would be difficult to hook this effort up to that AutoQA
stuff somehow so you can get nice rpmdiff/rpmguard results between your
test builds. tflink/kparal (CCed) may have some thoughts.



I'll definitely give those a try, thanks for the suggestions and ideas.

And yes, i agree that simply because the builds "appear" to be the same 
doesn't mean they actually are.


But having a list of BRs that could potentially be removed is obviously 
the first important step which has to be followed by a proper 
verification that the actual new build without the BRs really does work 
the same way as the old one and doesn't have any features removed 
invisibly or some documentation instead of being regenerated just copied 
or anything like that.

The check for this needs to be careful. When some requirements are
missing a build can still succeed, but be missing intended features. So
you can't just test whether a build succeeds or fails to determine if a
build requirement is really needed.


Yep. I remember back when we did the s390x stuff for F12 that was one of 
the things we looked at specifically: Hacking things together to get at 
least building was a good start, but if you didn't install several other 
packages the build would still succeed but with autoconf automatically 
disabling several features.


Thats why i really like the way we've moved over the past 10 years or so 
to explicitly only have a pretty small buildsys environment and almost 
everything else needs to be explicitly required for building from the 
respective packages.


Famous last words: Can't be that hard to write a script that compares 2 
builds that they provide the have the same provides and requires and 
filelists. :)

Good point. For some of the BRs i've already noticed i was wondering 
whether they are really necessary anymore. But ye, that would have to be 
at least somewhat automated as doing that manually for single packages 
would be a gigantic task time wise.


/me makes a note.


* Second level could be to try to limit the BR, although some extended
functionality or binding might not be supported. This extended
functionality or bindings could be moved out into separate package,
although it would require second build run. Looking into Python BR, I
believe they could be trimmed down using this approach.


Yea, I suspect both could be combined though in a script that gradually

Right, that's actually on my plan as a next step. Ages ago (like, 5 
years or so) we've done it once with the java cloud back then when 
Karsten Hopp was trying to unravel and bootstrap s390x for Fedora 12 
once more. That graph alone huge and printed on A1 hung on his wall to 
mark off stuff that he managed to get built or fixed. :)


We still do have code for that, but it's pretty rotten by now[1] and 
probably needs quite a bit TLC.


I got 2 weeks of PTO over the holidays, so hopefully enough time to get 
more stuff done there.


Thanks & regards, Phil

[Base] Proposal for buildrequires cleanup janitorial initiative

2013-12-12 Thread Phil Knirsch

Hi everyone.

During last weeks Base WG discussion about package set and self hosting 
of Base we came to a point where especially the self hosting of Base 
would currently look absurd as we'd require more than 2000 components to 
do so.


For that reason we'd like to propose the following initiative:

Initiate build requires cleanup for base related packages in Fedora 
working with maintainers and the community. The goal is to reduce the 
number of self-hosting packages required for Base from currently over 
2000 packages.


To kickstart this off one idea would be to start looking at very small 
self contained package sets that already exist:


https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Base/Packages

This is a page thatHarald Hoyer put together and consists of a very 
limited set of packages that are together dependency complete.


Now, to figure our how the build chains for these packages look like 
i've cobbled together a (really bad) hack using python and repoclosure 
that basically takes a set of packages as an input (actually a set of 
requirements) and then spits out consecutively the groups of packages 
needed to build the previous ones, so basically a reverse grouped build 
order:


-- snipp here --

import sys
import subprocess

def getBuildRequires(pkgset):
requires = set()
cmd = ["repoquery", "--enablerepo=fedora-source", "--requires", 
"--srpm", "--source"]

cmd.extend(pkgset)
out = subprocess.check_output(cmd)
for r in out.split("\n"):
requires.add(r)
return requires

def getSRPMs(requires):
newpkgset = set()
cmd = ["repoquery", "--whatprovides", "--source"]
cmd.extend(requires)
out = subprocess.check_output(cmd)
for prov in out.split("\n"):
if prov[-8:] != ".src.rpm":
continue
newpkgset.add(prov[:-8])
return newpkgset

oldpkgset = set()
newpkgset = set(getSRPMs(sys.argv[1:]))

while len(newpkgset - oldpkgset) > 0:
diff = newpkgset - oldpkgset
print len(diff), diff
oldpkgset = set(newpkgset)
newpkgset = newpkgset | getSRPMs(getBuildRequires(diff))

print len(newpkgset), newpkgset

-- snipp here --

The output is awful, but can be easily adapted to what one needs. It 
needs to be run on a current Fedora system (F20 or rawhide) like so:


python bo2.py  *[]

and it'll spit the different sets of package srpm NEVRAs that need to be 
built with the last output being the whole set of packages and the 
second to last one being the first component group that needs to be 
built. So if you only want the groups, just put a comment before the 
last line.


I know this could probably be written much nicer using the yum API, but 
it does the job for me for now and it's relatively fast (couple of 
minutes for a set of packages).


I'll add some better formated lists to Harald's wiki page so the 
buildreqs and groups can be studied and tackled by anyone who feels like 
wanting to help here. :)


And obviously if you as a package maintainer feel like you'd like to 
cleaning up your package, hopefully this tool will help you determine 
why the heck your package might have some really oddball buildrequire 
chain, too. :)


Thanks & regards, Phil

2013-12-06 Thread Phil Knirsch
Main topic we covered today was the janitorial work for Base related 
packages to do a build requires cleanup in the coming months.


I'll be sending out a separate email about that on Monday to explain the 
ins and outs and hopefully with a bit more info/queries/statistics about 
the whole idea. And as usual, if anyone wants to 
help/participate/comment etc feel free to get in contact with us.

[Base] Release cycle discussion for Fedora products and specifically Fedora Base and how they interact/align

2013-11-26 Thread Phil Knirsch

Hi everyone.

As i've been having a few discussions myself and following several of 
them as well as plans about release cycles in the different WGs over the 
past weeks and after FESCO discussed this in during their meetings and 
in a FESCO ticket[1] i get the feeling that we should be discussing this 
not in committees only but on a broader scale across all committees and WGs.


The FESCO ticket comes to the following result:

'If working groups want to use different cycles, they should provide us 
with what they want to do with rationale along with the PRD. They should 
be aware that even if we can okay the plan, it is unlikely to be 
implementable for one or more releases. Please do not make your PRD 
depend on an alternate release lifecycle.'


Josh Boyer also started a very great discussion about this specifically 
for the kernel on the Fedora kernel mailing list and how he would like 
to go forward with the kernel itself[2]. A very informative and deep 
analysis of the options and the impacts of different alternatives as well.


Stephen Gallagher did the same for the Server WG[3] with lots of good 
input and feedback about the it in that thread as well.


What i'd like to do here now is to collect all information of every WG 
about how they envision their releases to work (generally), what release 
cadence they expect and what life time they expect for each of their 
products and last but certainly not least, how they plan to support that.


And following the guidance of the FESCO ticket[1] how we can in the end 
align all products to follow a general cadence and life cycle while 
allowing products the flexibility they want and/or need.


Thanks everyone!

Regards, Phil

Hey, I read your minutes, and discussed some of my thoughts on this with
my workstation wg peers. Basically, I think that defining a 'base' as a
particular set of packages (minimal install, or some variant thereof)
does not really provide us what we need to build one or more products.'

What we really need as a base is a definition of the apis that are
guaranteed to be stable and that the products and applications can rely
on. Packages can to some extent serve as a proxy for that, but they are
really just an implementation detail of how the product is put
together.


+1 to this. In fact, I think we'll *need* to do it this way in order to be
able to innovate at both layers.



I absolutely like the idea and i think we brought that up during our 
meeting on Friday actually and were all more or less in favor of it.


In order to get there though the Base team will need very detailed input 
from the other WGs so that we can then find the smallest common 
denominator of a common stable API and/or ABI that Base will then 
provide for any given release for all products.

But i do like the idea of well "Overlap" releases? Where most of
the release would stay stable in a sense of API/ABI and we could
still bring out a newer release.


Since we have a system where multiple kernel types can be
installed, maybe we could use that to have a latest stable kernel
package and a latest long term support kernel package. This will
take more kernel team resources and may have some issues if the
graphics drivers devs want to take advantage of a new feature that
isn't going to be back ported to stable.


Alternately, maybe this is one of the cases where we leave it to
RHEL/CentOS to cover. For really long-term kernel support, those
groups are much better equipped to resource it than the Fedora kernel
team.


Hm, so would the Fedora Server products base their releases then on 
CentOS instead? Otherwise, if due to resource constraints the Base 
products can't have a longer life cycle then say, 1 year or so, how 
would the Server products from Fedora be able to provide longer 
lifecycles on top of that? Would they support the Base they are using 
themselves? Who would do that?


As at the end of the day, as Bruno already mentioned in his answer, # of 
releases per year and lifetime of one product don't scale well. They 
actually scale quadratic, which is even worse. So we'll have to find 
some common ground and ideas on how we can manage to support both fast 
moving products e.g. like Cloud or potentially Workstation vs. slower 
moving and longer living ones like i expect Server.


And don't take this as an attack please, i just want to ensure everyone 
is on the same page regarding our finite resources and how we can most 
efficiently use them and find a solution that will work for all involved 
WGs and products.

[Fedora Base Design WG] Confirmed meeting: Friday, November 8 15:00 UTC on #fedora-meeting IRC

2013-11-06 Thread Phil Knirsch
Subject says it all, thanks to Jon for making it possible to come on 
Friday at that time as well we now have our first official meeting time 
and day.


The initial meeting agenda items went out with my previous email, but to 
be sure here are recap:


 - The main topics for the meeting agenda from my side will be:
   o Governance discussion & draft (Proposal: Review other WGs 
governance drafts & create our own based on those)
   o Regular meeting times (stay with Friday 15:00 PM or move somewhere 
else?)

   o Base mailing list discussion (yes/no, pros/cons)
   o QE representation discussion (who, how, status, etc)
   o Role of Base Design group discussion ->
   o Start of collecting ideas for Base Design. Proposal: Use wiki
   https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Base
 Maybe something like a mission statement first that relates to the 
idea that the Base Design is the platform for all other direct Fedora 
products (there can potentially be other separate products based on our 
original products or others consuming Base in the future).

   o Container technology

See you there!

Thanks & regards, Phil

Right, release cycle will definitely be a hot topic, and i'd like us to
investigate different types as well, e.g. not a time based but a major
feature based cycle (e.g. new upstream kernel -> new release), continuous,
support time for releases, what about feature backports and so forth. Lots
revolving around those topics i think.


Unless you want to do a release every 3 months, the kernel probably
isn't going to be a good thing to key off of.  I mean, it's a thing we
could do, but if we did that we'd probably want to treat it in a
fashion where a new Base release can fit into an older product release
for some reasonable definition of old.  Similar to how we rebase the
kernel in existing releases today, with perhaps a bit more lead time
and QA.



Makes perfect sense, yes. And thanks for giving this great example, and 
why it's so vital to have different people with different backgrounds 
and focuses on each team.


But i do like the idea of well "Overlap" releases? Where most of the 
release would stay stable in a sense of API/ABI and we could still bring 
out a newer release.


As Jaroslav already mentioned, i can see some products that would want 
to have really current Base products while others might want to have 
longer lifecycles and longer release times for Base. This will be a 
tough nut to crack considering the limited resources we have (people and 
time wise):


Just as an example with picking up your 3 month release cycle, imagine 
other teams would want to have 3 year life cycle for Base, that would 
mean in the end we'd have to support and maintain 3 years x 4 releases 
per year = 12 release at once. I'm pretty sure thats not feasible, so 
we'll have to discuss in the WG and with all other WGs a compromise of 
how we can make it work for most of them. Again just throwing out an 
idea here: Doing 1 Long life release per year where long term products 
could base their products on and 3 short life release per year that we'd 
only support for 1 year. That would reduce the number down to 6 already, 
or even sorter if we'd say we only support the short life cycle release 
to 6 months only. And again, this is just food for thought/my $0.02 here 
that comes to my mind. Probably lost of garbage in it. :)



One request i also already got was if we in the Base WG could take a look at
containers/sandboxes for applications as well. Basically so that the
technology could be used by any derived product built on top of Base. And as
there are currently multiple competing technologies being worked on
(docker.io, systemd containers, libvirt-lxc, openshift cartridges) we'd need
to evaluate those and decide which one(s) we'd want to offer as a "standard"
from the Base product.


Yes, the Workstation WG is interested in this as well.



Aye, i've read the PRD and followed to some extent the enormous 
discussions around the Workstation already.


Thanks & regards, Phil

Howdy folks.

Looking forward to getting to work on base design. Regarding the voting
members I feel we have a great group. Everyone intersted (voting or not)
should participate in our discussions. My vote will certainly be
influenced by anyone in the community willing to participate.  :-)


100% :)


One thing I would like to talk about is embedded Fedora, mostly as that
is my personal area of involvement with the project.  There is not an
embedded working group, and it's my agenda to hopefully have the base
design double as embedded.  It makes sense to me in the sense that base
ring-zero is sort of the embedded core into cloud, server, or
workstation. By itself base would be suitable for the smallest deployment.


Thats a really good point, and one i do share as well: The Base needs to 
be able to serve as a starting point for every current and any potential 
future Fedora products. And to do so means we need to find the smallest 
common denominator. Of course this is just my personal opinion, and 
we'll discuss this among many other topics during our meetings. And last 
but not least in collaboration with the other WGs, as they rely on us to 
deliver something they can use as a, well, "Base". ;)



Another item I'd like to consider for the initial discussion is the
release cycle for the base design. My feeling is that base is small
enough and simple enough to allow a more frequent release, perhaps even

Hi everyone.

A quick update from my side regarding the Base Design WG:

- My proposed committee was approved by FESCO last Wednesday. One
negative vote came from Stephen Gallagher that he would have very
much preferred to have Lennart instead of Harald or Josh on the
committee.



To be completely clear, I said I would have preferred having Lennart
on the WG. I did not state that I thought Harald or Josh should not be
members. That's an important distinction, I think :)

I felt strongly enough that Lennart belonged on this group that I
chose to cast a token vote, knowing that it would not affect the outcome.


Apologies if i phrased that a badly. I didn't intend to either play down 
your opinion or the importance and contributions of Lennart. I 
definitely hope he will participate and contribute to the Base WG even 
if he isn't a voting member of the committee.


After all, in my personal opinion the committee's decision should 
strongly be influenced exactly by that kind of participation and input 
from interested parties. And taking in all aspects and weighing them 
based on feasibility, resources, importance and other criteria everyone 
will have and then, as a group, come to a final decision that everyone 
can and will support.


Thanks & regards, Phil
