Quite frankly, as one of the authors of the original BLS spec, I can'd
say Matthew's version was much discussed with me...
I mean, I am open to extending the spec, but we should do this bit by
bit.
Zbigniew suggested to move the spec into docbook or markdown format,
and then accept changes via usual github PRs. If there's interest
still in extending the spec with some of Matthew's ideas we can
certainly look into that, but in general I'd actually prefer to reduce
the size of the spec if possible, and drop as many bits of it as we
can, i.e. the stuff noone implements anyway.
It would be great if we could extend the spec with optional support for
multiple initrd images (the Tuned daemon depends on that). Fedora's
GRUB2 already supports multiple initrd images (it allows specifying
multiple lines with the "initrd" key), but I'd like to make sure that
whoever implements BLS in the future and decides to support multiple
initrds will not choose a different syntax for it. Would you be open to
extending the spec with that?
Thanks.
Best regards
