As you may or may not know, a Gentoo installer project has been formed and been working on the design of a flexible installer for both desktop and server.
The work we've done is up at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/installer/
Today, we're going to have a meeting in #gentoo-installer (freenode, 19:00UTC) that will follow the same format as gentoo meetings. Here's our tentative agenda:
- Overall design. What's left and what is solid.
- Features that will be included and those that will be delayed, at least initially
- Publicity - when, how, and why
- Initial task assignment for all people involved (coders, design people, advisers, etc.)
- Release cycles / coding standards / development methods
- Wrap up / check list of resources and who is responsible for them (document maintenance, project page(s), cvs access, mailing lists, etc.)
- Regular meetings - frequency, attendance, general topics, format
We invite everyone to come, but request that you read over the project docs if you'd like to comment / get involved as it will answer at least 90% of all questions. We will do a QA session after the meeting in gentoo meetings fashion.
