JBoss Spin
by Gerard Ryan 12 Aug '12

12 Aug '12

Hi Spins SIG, I'm doing a Fedora JBoss Spin as my GSOC project at the moment. Most of my efforts so far have been in packaging stuff to put into the spin, and only recently has there started to be enough stuff to really call it a spin. I'm still waiting for a few packages to come through the review process before I will submit the spin for review/wrangling(?). If you want to have a look at what I've got so far, you can see the kickstart at [1]. Any comments or questions welcome, even flames: I've got pretty fire retardant skin! Once the spin is submitted for review, can stuff still be added to it, or what's the process for that? thanks Gerard.

Adding default user to a group
by Jørn Loamx 17 Jul '12

17 Jul '12

Is there a way to add the first created user to a group. I have been able to add the liveuser to the audio and jackuser groups (which makes sense for an audio spin), but I have not found a way of making the user created after install (on firstboot) to said groups. Is this at all possible, and if so, are there any hint you can give me? -- Jørn Lomax GSoC atudent, Fedora audio Spin CS Student University of Tromsø
