Ok, there seems to be some serious lack of interest. Only got response from David and “Robot” (supposedly Donald?). (and Jafar saying that he doesn’t have time) Not sure how to proceed, so here is my rant: I’m thinking about just closing the Redhat Package PR (not merging, just close) and someone else can address it again in maybe 6 months or whenever there is any interest at all. I was really hoping to get something in - maybe not perfect, but at least a start and everyone would be welcome to improve it afterwards with PRs on top of the base. The PR doesn’t break anything existing (current packages fail on all OS for me, so I’m not building any RH packages at this time). So I think it’s better than what we have now and it doesn’t break anything existing. Based on this, my view would be to get it in. But it seems the discussion goes down the rathole on how to have all perfect back to 2.0 release and rather have nothing instead of this. There is very little technical feedback (Donald provided some and I thank him for this - even if he has different views, I highly appreciate them. The issue here is NOT the fault of Donald, but the lack of feedback from just about everyone else. It just caused a “standstill” as Donald and I have different personal views on some of the technical points. But I think a 3rd/4th opinion could have solved this very easily) Now from me pushing the long overdue decision, the whole things seems to derail on how to get packages into distro’s. This is secondary to me as they always lag far behind and I think there is no way around providing up-to-date packages directly like most other projects do. </rant> Steps forward: I formally ask this now to be moved to the TSC for a vote on how to move forward (as our charters outline). I want an agreement to either - Close (abandon) the PR without merging - Accept the PR as it is - Clear indication of what is missing/broken and required to be fixed for it to be accepted. Let’s see how our TSC process works… - Martin On 23 May 2017, at 8:56, Martin Winter wrote:
