Being in CentOS' Extras repo sounds great, but what about all the other
RHELs out there, including RHEL itself?
I'm not very experienced in making packages but what would be nice is if
there was an OpenAFS repo all by itself. This way
CentOS/RHEL/Scientific Linux/Whatever could just add that repo and
install away. Additionally this makes it easy for Satellite/Spacewalk
users to add the repo to their servers to push out to their systems
(much in the way can be done with Dell's repo for example).
Would the CentOS Project be willing to host a dedicated OpenAFS repo
rather than using CentOS' Extras repo?
Out of curiosity, how much data would such a repo have to hold?

Hi,
I work on the CentOS Project effort.
We would be very happy to offer code hosting, build services and deliver
of rpm content via the primary CentOS repos. We dont have any
no-kernel-module policy and we also try and build the process in a way
that allows upstream communities to deliver the user experience they
want. In this case, openafs, as a project, could chose what the update,
release, patch and feedback policy is going to be.
Depending on how people feel, I'd image hosting in CentOS-Extras/ would
be good, it would allow openafs to be a single yum command away (
Extras/ is enabled by default ).
If this is interesting, then I will setup conversations and scope /
PoC's with the Storage SIG folks in the CentOS Project. Happy to field
questions in the mean time.
Regards,
