Okay....I have a working Fedora account. I've asked about Python
books.
I've taken a peek at the git web page. I've subscribed to cobbler-devel
and even looked at a patch that Pete Wright submitted in support of
Ubuntu. I think I can get on #cobbler-devel. And in a few minutes I'm
going to go off and do my first cobbler-based install of Fedora.
My next question is, for next week, are we going to agree to use a
particular cobbler source code tree and apply all patches for the week
to that tree? In other words, which cobbler source tree should I
download or get from git for next week's events?
git repo.
master = the development branch, which will be released as Cobbler 2.0
in the coming months
release16 = any fixes for future 1.6.X releases (I do not currently plan
any)
