Greetings, As discussed in a meeting yesterday, I'm sending the list a quick note about our intention to start working on support for private charms.
The motivation for the feature is somewhat obvious: people should be able to create charms for content that they're not comfortable making publicly available. The initial plan is rather straightforward as well. We need to: - Integrate the Ubuntu Single Sign On system with the charm store backend; - Adapt our clients (juju, the charm browser, etc) so that they're able to authenticate while talking to the charm store backend; - Find a way to harvest and fetch private charms out of Launchpad, in very similar ways to what we do today with the public content. The details of the interactions with Launchpad are still being sorted out, as we need to understand what's a cheap way to leverage what already works, what needs to be improved to enable a good workflow, and who can do it. This is just a kickoff email to raise any conversations needed (if any). Casey Marshall, Andrew Deane, Matthew Williams, and others will be pushing the actual work. The ball is now rolling.. gustavo @ http://niemeyer.net -- Juju-dev mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/juju-dev
