Starting Flatpak SIG
by Kalev Lember
Hi all,
I would like to kick of a Fedora Flatpak Packaging SIG that meets
regularly and has IRC meetings.
Our flatpaks have gotten some bad rep recently and I think for a good
reason. We don't have a lot of them and we only have a handful of people
working on them. We also have a fairly obvious conflict of interest with
Flathub and a bunch of Fedora people are doing flatpaks in Flathub
instead of Fedora and advocating against using Fedora flatpaks.
Here's an attempt to try to get more people involved :) The awkward
situation here is that I am not 100% convinced myself that we should
continue doing Fedora flatpaks, but maybe with a bit more organization
around this we can get some more eyes on the problem and solve some of
the issues.
Please put your name in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Flatpak if
you are interested and I'll try to organize a poll for a weekly meeting
time. I'd suggest to start the meetings on the second week of January
when the holidays are over.
I've added a few people to CC that I thought might be interested in
this, but anyone that has interest in the area is more than welcome to join.
[Edit: the email got rejected from the mailing list due to too many
recipients so I'm re-sending it without the CC list. The CC'd people
hopefully got the message already.]
Some questions I have around organization: Can someone help register the
#fedora-flatpaks IRC channel under the Fedora umbrella? I am not sure
how to best do that. Does matrix need any special sauce to get a room?
What would be a good name for a pagure.io project?
pagure.io/fedora-flatpaks or pagure.io/fedora-flatpak-sig or
pagure.io/flatpak-sig or something else?
Do we need a mailing list? My initial gut feeling is no, but I'm
interested in what other people think.
If you reply to this, please make sure to reply to the
devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org post as I am cross-posting it to desktop@
as well.
