Hello all, The following issues have been identified in the latest requirements drafts. They need to be discussed before the requirements spec is finalised.
1. UI.Packages.Size How do we handle split /usr? What about split /usr/bin from /usr/share? Should Horizon simply ignore the size issues if the topology becomes too complex? Adding metadata for each directory to APK seems silly, and that'd be the only way to accurately give a "too large" error at that level of split. 2. UI.Accounts.UserAcct.AcctName.Default.Algo Is this algorithm acceptable? Can PAM handle account names of 32 characters? I can't find an exact citation for this. Additionally, the Unicode reference for how to Latinise and lower-case a string needs to be found. 3. UI.Finish.RemoveMedia How do we allow the user to reboot when there is no disc in the drive? Is this possible, or should this requirement be stricken? Can we put /sbin/reboot in a tmpfs and execute it there? If we use s6-linux-init, what files does it need to be able to reboot without / continuing to exist? 4. HorizonScript Specification: netssid.format Is it valid to have more than one SSID configuration per interface? Certainly it may be useful if you have multiple SSIDs in a company (one at a headquarters and another at a satellite office, for instance), but I feel like they could just copy their own wpa_supplicant.conf in if that's the case. I'd like community feedback on whether multiple SSIDs per interface would be genuinely useful for HorizonScript. (This does not change the Horizon UI for choosing a wireless network.) 5. Runner.Execute.netaddress.OpenRC How do we decide what interfaces to enable on boot up? Do we enable all of them? What if the HorizonScript doesn't include netifrc (or even openrc) for installation? Should the Runner be "intelligent" enough to detect that netifrc won't be installed, and not create the service files? 6. Runner.Execute.network.netaddress Should the network be validated? What if it's an internal-only network, should it still be considered valid? How would we determine if the network is valid if it is an internal-only network? What if the gateway is blocking ICMP? What should the DHCP timeout be? Should DHCP parameters be verified after a lease is acquired? Let's discuss during the comment window. Best, --arw -- A.
