Hi all,
I'm thinking about trying to get things in a place to close it out.
Things I think we're in pretty good shape on:
- primary metadata format
- filelists
- changelog/other data
Things I'd like a few more people's views on:
- repomd.xml
- requirements for a repository to be considered 'compliant'
- enumerated types for checksums, pkgtypes, some other misc fields.
Things I think we've not made enough discussion of:
- groups file - I'd like more input on requirements for this file.
Some more comments on the dtd and sample groups file would be great.
- metadata gpg signing
What I'd like to know is what things y'all think are stopping from
releasing the format as a draft version for public review.
Here is my list:
- dtd and short sample for each file
- enumerated types and descriptions
- requirement, suggested, optional list for fields and files
-sv
