When the Music Spin is comming? Next Fedora release?
Hmm. Speaking from the Fedora side, I wish I could give a date. With the current resources, I would say, whenever we have the manpower. Maybe 3-4 more dedicated packagers later. Anybody feel free to join :)
And remember that if you have ever downloaded an application's source code, then managed to build and run it locally, you are already some way toward being a packager ;-)
rpm basically solidifies that knowledge into a .spec file to allow repeatable builds, in a way that integrates with the system as a whole.
What time frames need to be met for Fedora to be able to have a hosted spin ?
Remember that a Music Spin from Fedora can only contain packages already in Fedora, so... - what packages would you like to see on the spin ? - don't forget that we can't package in Fedora non-free, nor patent encumbered code...
PlanetCCRMA side is another story.
At the moment, needed for special kernel (although with a quad core 3GHz machine I'm not sure that I really require it ?).
Would CCRMA have enough resources for hosting a spin (maybe torrent)?
I'm keen to assist in the Fedora side; do we already have some wiki information on what already exists, work done, goals and so forth ?
Cheers, David.
ps. On most fedora lists, when I hit reply, thunderbird automatically sets me to be replying to the list. But the music list seems to be different: a reply fills in only the person who wrote the original message. Do other people have this problem ?
If so, I'd like to hassle the list master to fix it up...
