If you don't have links to third party repositories and nothing that could be considered 'contributory infringment' then your service would fit well in the fedora infrastructure. But right now I know you point to places like livna, freshrpms, etc and those have things we're not allowed to point to.
I understand that. Come to think of it, it is very easy to control which repositories the tracker indexes. If it would get more people involved in Tracker's development, I would support the creation of an "Official" tracker that just indexes non-sketchy repositories, with a more inclusive tracker hosted elsewhere (or indexing everything, but not providing direct-dl links if that would satisfy people's concerns). With a web-accessable database of all of the metadata from multiple repositories, there's all kinds of cool stuff Tracker could do that I just don't have time to code. For example: - Providing "X Newest Updates/Changelogs" stats (plus rss feed of same) - Allow users to "watch" packages and be notified whenever there is an update - Identify inter-repository conflicts toward the end of making repos play nicely with each other ...etc. Is there actual interest in this? --Brad -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
