Right, this is more for infrastructure folks setting up a koji server for use by clients. Not really meant for package maintainers to be reading. > 4.

There is need for two, possibly three sets of documentation. 1) Using koji as a Fedora maintainer. This is where the majority of meat should be, and referenced by anything related to using the build system. This should fall somewhere in PackageMaintainers/ 2) How to setup Koji in your own environment. Arguably this could go in the koji Trac wiki instance, but some people have started it in our wiki so why not... This is where detailed information about generating certs, setting up the web service, etc.. all goes here. I'm not sure what section this should be in. Maybe Projects/Koji to match Projects/Mock. 3) Fedora Infrastructure notes about how to keep our koji server going. Maintenance items, notes specific to our deployment, SOPs, etc... This needs to be under the Infrastructure/ section. > -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours?
