Hello, it has been some time when the Server SIG was announced. And one goal has been already almost accomplished - to start discussion about the needs of the server community. For "Server" specific issues I have opened our own mailing list - subscribe at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fedora-server-list One question raised during the discussions was "what is a server" and the answer can be simple. The server is a combination of bootloader, kernel and "the server", where "the server" can be a file server, web server, database server, application server, etc. It is quite common to have just one service running per hardware (both physical and virtual). But a mix of running servers is also possible :-) There are miscellaneous goals written on the wiki page, so it is time to get them a little bit organized and to divide the work into more specific areas. And they are here: Installer - work with the anaconda team to keep anaconda suitable for server installs (text mode, kickstarts, ...) - create a lightweight installer/bootstraper Server services - bring more server packages into Fedora - encourage creation of EPEL branches for existing packages Kernel - everything about the kernel side of servers Admins corner - place for administration and monitoring technologies available in Fedora - collects pointers to how-tos and other docs useful for administrators - work on the TUI counterparts of GUI system-config-* tools, should go in hand with the backend/frontend separation Security - improve/monitor the security standards for current server software - help the desktop developers with the security aspects of their work QA - testing If there are no objections I will update the wiki accordingly and participants can then put their names/nicks to their area of interest.
