I can help

[Alexandre Moine]

Hi everybody,

I see the ticket of FranciscoD on the Planet, and I offer my help. I'm
not a sponsored packager, but can I co-maintain a package (I've got some
basics in the rpm build process)? I can do other things that not needed
big skills in medical/programming.
If I can help the the medical profession Iwould be very happy ;)

Thank you in advance,

Alexandre, Fedora User and Ambassador

Fantastic!
Have you seen the minutes of last nights meeting?

We now have a concrete base to work from and time-frame to guide.

Glad to work together.

Hi, Thank for your response,

Yes I read the minute. I can help to packaging, but I'm not,for the time
being, a sponsored packager. I can co-maintain a package or build a new
(on this list: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-medical/report/1 ?)
Have you an idea for a package?

Thank you in advance,

Alexandre, Fedora User and Ambassador

There are quite a few packages. You could start with one of my
fedora-medical packages if you want to. Here are ones that I maintain
that could use a co-maintainer:

aeskulap: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/aeskulap
dcm4che-test:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/dcm4che-test
freediams: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/freediams
freemedforms:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/freemedforms
python-hl7: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/python-hl7
xmedcon: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/xmedcon

freemedforms and freediams are under heavy development and require work
from time to time. I haven't had to update the others since I packaged
them.

Why don't you have a look and see where you want to get started? Once
you find a package that interests you, please let us know and we can
mail the devel lists requesting you be sponsored as a co-maintainer.

I'll be delighted to help you learn packaging and then you can package
up other things that interest you too! :)

Thank for your reply.
I'd like to be a packager, so I'd like to package a new apllication.
Ledgersmb looks really good, no?
(https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-medical/ticket/1 )
I can package, but if you want to guide me for the process, it would be
really nice ;)

Thank you in advance.

Ps: But if you want, I can co-maintain freemedforms and freediams

Hi,

I'm sorry for the dupes.
But ledgersmb seems very difficult ( see
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ledger-smb/files/ledgersmb/1.3.34/ledgersmb-...
)
Well, I prefer co-maintain an existing package (freemedforms and freediams)
or build a 'simple' package...

Yeah. I thought it was quite tough for a beginner too. However, I didn't
want to discourage you from starting on it :)

Please send a mail to the devel list saying you'd like to co-maintain
the package with me and that you require sponsorship to do so. I'll
chime in and confirm that you've already talked to me and that I agree
to help you learn packaging along the way :)

I'll see if I can find a simple package for you to get started on in the
mean time. Mario, Sébastien, would you have a simple package for
Alexandre to begin working on?

I have had a look at 3D Slicer, and its build instructions seem well
documented (though the build process is quite slow):
http://www.slicer.org/slicerWiki/index.php/Slicer4:Build_Instructions

Perhaps this would be an interesting project? There is also medInria and
Icy:
http://med.inria.fr/
http://icy.bioimageanalysis.org/

As far as Orthanc is concerned, I am working on a development package and
on a FUSE filesystem, but it is still WIP (expect nothing before, say,
November). Maybe you could also help Mario in porting the Orthanc package
to RHEL and CentOS via EPEL?

Just my two pennies worth...

Thanks Sebastien,

Alexandre, you've been sponsored as a package maintainer. Please apply
on the packagedb now and I'll approve your request.

Eric, the freemedforms/freediams upstream has announced a 0.9.0-beta3.
We're using a beta1, and while I don't think we need to update the
fedora packages until 0.9.0 stable is released, it'll be good practice
for you to make modifications to the spec and build it locally. Please
get the spec from the fedora SCM, and update it to use the beta3
sources. (Please do not kick off any official releases until you've
shown the spec/srpm to me first.)

You can also get started with the packages that Sebastien has pointed
out above. If you have queries, please mail me offlist or catch me in
#fedora-join on the IRC.
