Hi Tobias,
Great job. I am very glad to see a web site like this.
I have two questions.
1. Do you want to create a repository, and so that opkg can access your
repository directory?
You may want to see http://svn.openmoko.org/trunk/src/host/opkg-utils/
If your repository is ready to go, people can create packages
pointing to your web site, and then download packages from your
repository via opkg directly.
2. IMHO www.opkg.org seems a little bit general, It may confuse some users. Do
your consider a more precise name?Cheers, Tick On Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 11:30:06AM +0200, Tobias Kündig wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I'm proud to announce my newest project: http://www.opkg.org > > It's a simple database of available *.ipk-Packages. > I know, some time ago there was someone other who planned to do > something like this.
