So, as cmurf has been trying to point out on desktop@ , we (QA) have
some concerns in this area too, and I know the installer team is open to
the idea of at least simplifying the non-custom partitioning path to
some extent.
This is an extremely complex topic area, though, and it may be tricky to
get the right things done if multiple teams are considering it in
different contexts in different meetings. It would probably be a Very
Good Idea to get everyone with an interest - at least anaconda team, the
product WGs (except possibly Cloud, depending on whether they intend to
use anaconda in their deliverables at all), base WG, and fesco -
together in some way to talk about it. devconf would've been great but
it already happened. Flock would be great but it's too late. Should we
try to set up some kind of special meeting / list / etherpad /
wikipage / *something* where we can all talk it over?
Well, the question is if installer changes are short term goals or more
long terms and before trying to setup any meeting, it would be nice to
collect more data from other groups. So personally, I'd say Flock would
be great opportunity to discuss it but on the other hand, it's always
nice to be prepared for such conversation. The other groups Tech Spec
should be available within a week, then let's try to look for overlapping
pieces and I'm definitely volunteer to work on it. Once we have it,
it's going to be a good time to discuss details and as Base, we should
incorporate it to our Base design.
