I'm working semi-officially with Sebastian Heinlein from Ubuntu and Roderick Greening from Suse. Sebastian is the one driving through the new changes in the Ubuntu Software Center, and works heavily with PackageKit and apt. You could say he's the right person to be working with. Of course, all the time app-install is too feature poor for them, they'll not switch from the xapian index (and this is the case with the deliberately simple v1 schema). Version 2 schema, which we're working on defining now, and is 90% complete provides enough functionality to switch away from xapian. But of course, Fedora is an early adopter and driving development. Just like normal. Just like it should be. Richard. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
