* Vít Ondruch <vondruch AT redhat DOT com>
Ruby 2.3 is the latest stable version of Ruby. Many new features and
improvements are included for the increasingly diverse and expanding
demands for Ruby. With this major update from Ruby 2.2 in Fedora 22 to
Ruby 2.3 in Fedora 24, alongside JRuby, Fedora becomes the superior
Ruby development platform.
== Detailed Description ==
Ruby 2.3 is upstream's new major release of Ruby. Many new features
and improvements are included.
A Frozen String Literal Pragma is introduced. With Ruby 2.1,
"str".freeze has been optimized to reduce object allocation. Ruby 2.3
introduces a new magic comment and command line option to freeze all
string literals in the source files. Additionally for debugging, you
can get where the object is created on "can't modify frozen String"
error by --enable-frozen-string-literal-debug.
A safe navigation operator, which already exists in C#, Groovy, and
Swift, is introduced to ease nil handling as obj&.foo. Array#dig and
Hash#dig are also added.
The did_you_mean gem is bundled. The did_you_mean gem shows the
candidates on the NameError and NoMethodError to ease debugging.
Safe levels $SAFE=2 and $SAFE=3 are obsolete.
== Scope ==
Proposal owners:
* Finish packaging of Ruby 2.3. Current changes available in
private-ruby-2.3 branch of ruby package in dist-git.
* Rebuilding of Ruby packages providing native extensions (i.e.
packages which depends on libruby).
Other developers:
* Rebuild of packages with binary extensions (i.e. packages which
depends on libruby) will be handled automatically, but some packages
might need fixes/updates to support Ruby 2.3 properly.
Release engineering:
* Separate Koji tag for package rebuild will be needed.
Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change)
Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)

= Proposed Self Contained Change: sen - terminal user interface for
docker engine =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/sen--tui-for-docker
Change owner(s):
* Tomas Tomecek <ttomecek AT redhat DOT com>
sen enables you to manage your containers and images interactively

* it can interactively manage your containers and images:
-- manage? start, stop, restart, kill, delete,...
* you are able to inspect containers and images
* sen can fetch logs of containers and even stream logs real-time
* all buffers support searching and filtering
* sen receives real-time updates from docker when anything changes
-- e.g. if you create a container in another terminal, sen will pick it up
* sen notifies you whenever something happens (and reports slow queries)
* supports a lot of vim-like keybindings (j, k, gg, /, ...)
== Scope ==
Proposal owners:
* package sen to Fedora
* provide an information it's available and documentation how to use
it (maybe via developer portal, or release notes)

F24 System Wide Change: Layered Docker Image Build Service
by Jan Kurik
= Proposed System Wide Change: Layered Docker Image Build Service =
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Layered_Docker_Image_Build_Service

* Amanda Carter <acarter AT redhat DOT com>
Fedora currently ships a Docker base image, but Docker supports a
layering concept. There are some applications like Cockpit which we
would like to ship as layered applications.
This change will deploy the build service to support building and
delivering a set of layered Docker images, and will enable Fedora
contributors to create and maintain Dockerfiles from which those
images will be generated.
== Detailed Description ==
This change opens up an new type of official binary artifact produced
by Fedora. Currently, we produce two main types of artifacts: RPMs,
and images. The RPMs are created in Koji from specfiles in dist-git.
The images come in different formats, but have in common creation in
Koji from kickstart files — this includes the official Fedora Docker
Base Image. This change introduces a new type of image, a Docker
Layered Image, which is created from a Dockerfile and builds on top of
that base image.
The system has five major parts:
A command-line client — already integrated into rpkg; needs only minor
work to enable in fedpkg (there is discussion about either extending
fedpkg or adding a new fedcontainer utility)
* dist-git for Dockerfiles
* A koji plugin, containerbuild
* An OpenShift 3 backend
* A distribution mechanism; a Docker Registry
* Currently evaluating options for this
* * Pulp Crane
* * Docker Registry
