Hi, Marius Vollmer wrote: Ok, let's do that then. (Do we need to register the BoF ahead of time?) That all depends - if you want the BOF to be on the schedule and have a room you can use, then yes. If you want to gather key people during the conference and pull a few chairs together, then no. I'd just like to point out that the content committee have done our best to accommodate things like this, but demand is high, and space is at a premium now, and we are about to close out the schedule.

I made a new section on http://wiki.maemo.org/Talk:Maemo_Summit_2009/Submissions for Proposed BoFs. Is that enough? Or is it too late? I am only worried about being able to get the word out that there is a BoF, and where it is once I have found a place at the venue. Here is the proposal: What to do about /opt in Fremantle Proposer: Marius Vollmer Description: For Fremantle, packages in the Extras repository are asked to install files into /opt to make better use of the available flash space. This BoF is an opportunity to discuss everything related to this, immediate next steps and long term solutions, according to the interest of the participants. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

Actually, that page (the Talk: page) was where the content committee evaluated proposals from http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Summit_2009/Submissions but that page is now protected, since the deadline is passed. I'll tell you what - I'll take this email as a proposal, and if we have any BOF space left after fitting in all the content we've already accepted, you can have it.

We could get together to talk about what we should do near term, and maybe also about the long term. Sounds good. I've added an optify facility to MUD, so that if you specify optify=1 in the XML file, it'll stick maemo-optify into debian/rules in the appropriate place. Interestingly, my first with it seemed to move the stuff into /opt correctly, but didn't put any symlinks in. Perhaps because it was trying to do it on a directory which already existed from a previous version?

I've added an optify facility to MUD, so that if you specify optify=1 in the XML file, it'll stick maemo-optify into debian/rules in the appropriate place. Cool. I think the biggest open question is how to avoid forking a package just for to include maemo-optify in debian/rules.

Perhaps because it was trying to do it on a directory which already existed from a previous version? Hmm, maemo-optify is of course quite untested, especially from inside debian/rules. This particular behavior doesn't ring any bells, unfortunately. The script itself is very simple, so it might be a good idea to put some prints into it, if it confuses you. ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
