<snip> Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 11:50:02 -0500 Subject: Fedora 34 Change: Comp Neuro Container Image (Self-Contained Change proposal) List-Id: Development discussions related to Fedora <devel.lists.fedoraproject.org> Archived-At: <https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.o...

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Comp_Neuro_Container == Summary == We will provide a Comp Neuro container image containing the same computational neuroscience software that the CompNeuro Lab image contains. This will allow users to use the software using Podman/Docker also. == Owner == * Name: [[User:bt0dotninja| Alberto Rodriguez Sanchez]], [[User:Ankursinha| Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD"]], [[SIGs/NeuroFedora| NeuroFedora SIG]] * Email: `sanjay DOT ankur AT gmail.com`, `neuro-sig AT lists.fedoraproject.org` == Detailed Description == The NeuroFedora team provides the CompNeuro Lab that includes a plethora of software for modelling and simulating these neuroscience models. Nowadays, containers are frequently used in research work facilitating model sharing and reproducibility. To aid our users, we would like to provide a Fedora layered container image that includes the same set of neuroscience software that the CompNeuro Lab includes. == Benefit to Fedora == This change allows users to use the complete set of CompNeuro packages also using containers. == Scope == * Proposal owners: It is an isolated change. It requires us to submit a new container review (already submitted [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1913491 here]). Once the review has been completed, the proposal owners will build the container image using `fedpkg` and push it out as updates. * Other developers: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Release engineering: Does not require release engineering to do anything. The standard package/container review process will be used. * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Objectives: it is not directly related to any objectives currently. == Upgrade/compatibility impact == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == How To Test == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == User Experience == In addition to the CompNeuro lab image, users will also be able to use the container image. == Dependencies == N/A (not a System Wide Change) == Contingency Plan == * Contingency mechanism: (What to do? Who will do it?) N/A (not a System Wide Change) * Contingency deadline: N/A (not a System Wide Change)licable for Changes that blocks specific product release/Fedora.next --> == Documentation == The [https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/neurofedora/containers/ page] in NeuroFedora documentation dealing with containers already includes information on using general Fedora containers. It will be updated to also include information on the CompNeuro container. == Release Notes == A mention of the new container image would be very useful. <snip>
