It's a lot of infrastructure work beyond putting some free machines on the Internet. Even with availability of software that's used by Fedora, like the account system, the update system, the build system(s), there's much to do if you either want to set up a highly similar developer environment or a custom one. > livna seems not be updating development for a while "Subject: rpm.livna.org Package Build Report 2008-04-23" disagrees with that. > And not having an unified extra repo might cause many desktop users to > migrate elsewhere, especially for multimedia and graphic drivers. > And generally multimedia management has to be improved, I bet if a > newcomer might be happy in setting up his system and how long does it > take to have a system properly working (for multimedia)? Instead of trying to threaten the livna packagers, it would be better to give them increased support. Too often one can read how people discuss various problems with livna packages without submitting a bug report. For several packagers, their motivation comes solely from users who use their packages and give success/failure reports. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
