I'm glad some people are really trying to look at the path forward. I'm also sorry I missed your RFE then. High traffic-lists sometimes get skipped over :( I like the goals of the paper. My main concerns is this addresses technical issues that are already in play. It doesn't address several items that are not technical issues which IMHO, is the main reason RPM isn't used for everything. Developers don't do deployments with RPM...at least not inside Fedora. Anything sane is actually against Packaging Guidelines. So that becomes a problem, and developers skip it. If developers (or operations people) are savvy enough to make RPMs, they are used once and not shared because they wouldn't get accepted into Fedora/EPEL. Also, sometimes developers/deployments need multiple versions of things installed. Is there a an effort that complements this one on the policy/non-technical side? -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
