Folks,
We are hosting another one of our regular Fedora 15 hardfp Virtual Fedora Activity Day today Friday July 15th, at 14:00UTC (10:00 Eastern Daylight Time). The purpose of this session is to co-ordinate the bootstrap of F15 hardfp (hardware floating point).
Last week, we succeeded in reaching a point where we had yum running natively, and after that rapidly went from just under 100 native binary RPMs built to 793 right now! We still do not have all of the dependencies for mock, but we hope to be there soon. We need your help, if you have the time, hardware, and interest in doing so. Together, we can reach a point of running mock, then rebuild all of the packages we have so far natively within a mock, and ultimately have a Koji buildroot sufficient to officially rebuild everything within the standard Fedora ARM Koji infrastructure.
You can find a lot more detail here about the stages involved in bringup (we are at stage 3), along with all the pre-reqs/bits:

For general bootstrapping series information:

Be sure you follow the instructions to use an armv7hl-YOUR_FAS_USERNAME or group name branch on the Fedora ARM git repo so that we can track who is doing what, and more easily back out changes if you/we discover a problem with your setup.
Jon.

Please note that this has been updated since last week. It now includes all of the information you need for "stage3" (current). Further, there is an additional wiki page linked from there with a list of packages that need building. The Etherpad we were using is currently down - don't use that, use the wiki pages instead please.

Is there a FAD today? And if so, what is the topic?
Thanks!
