All, here is what we are thinking for the relatively near term on Erlware:
Faxien - New install and release structure. Pre installed releases that faxien understands will have the same structure as you get in /lib/erlang when you install erlang/OTP from erlang.org. Basically if you want to use faxien to install releases right into your native OTP install it will work after this modification. This means that there will be one lib directory under your erlware install that contains apps compiled for many different Erts versions. Basically this is a move to get very standard and simple. This will also make us fully compatible with the new rel tool. After these changes faxien will be put into maintenance mode. Community patches always appreciated. Sinan - Add simple build hooks for calling into outside build scripts at different phases Dist must create releases of the new structure Know how to crawl the new lib structure selecting only dependencies that are compatible with the erts version a given Sinan instance is compiled for After these changes Sinan will be put into maintenance mode. Community patches always appreciated. THE REPOS This is where all our focus is going. After the simple changes above are made the rest of our focus will be repos repos repos. This means better support for digital signatures, more applications and releases, better website that allows for enhanced searching and easy download of packages with or without faxien. With these changes we should provide our community with a much greater level of support. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "erlware-dev" group.
