Here're the agenda itmes that we plan to discuss tomorrow. Please send input/ask questions etc and I'll bring your input into the meeting.
Note that not everything discussed is something that will end automatically in 10.2 - we might reject or postpone some stuff. * PolicyKit/resmgr Continuing discussion from last time. * crypto FS Kay proposes to replace cryptsetup with: http://luks.endorphin.org/dm-crypt LUKS is a standardized media encryption key handling and on-disk metadata format. Usually it's used with a dm-crypt device-mapper device. The cryptseup-luks tools are intended as a complete, backwards-compatible replacement for the original cryptsetup. LUKS stores a crypto-volume header at the beginning of the volume, so it can be safely probed and detected. Keys and encryption metadata are stored in the header of the volume. For details, see: http://luks.endorphin.org/about http://luks.endorphin.org/LUKS-on-disk-format.pdf The complete LUKS crypto Desktop support is already fully implemented in HAL and GNOME (including password-prompt, automount, password storage in gnome-keyring). The SUSE repository only misses an official version of the low-level tools, every other major distribution already ships it. * Removing build dependencies, speeding up the build process Richard proposes to remove dependencies so that building of a complete distribution can be speed up. * GNOME 2.16 and /usr Schedule/plan * /dev/hd removal: http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/9/285 * Building distribution for i386/x86-64 with -mtune=generic Proposal: Build distribution with these flags.
