Project name: Configurator extension
* Keywords: Perl, Configurator, GUI, CLI, XML, XHTML, XSL-T
* Bug#:
* Problem Summary: Configurator currently uses HTML document to describe the
configuration page and options. Unfortunately, while HTML can easily be
displayed with GUI toolkits, it is quite difficult to parse and display HTML
documents in command line based tools. This is one of the major drawbacks for
the implementation of a fully featured command line interface.
* Project Description: Specify and implement a solution for Configurator based
on
XML or XHTML. In order to not break the existing code, the current code of the
GUI will still be based on HTML. If needed, a solution may be to use XSL-T
documents to "translate" XML Configurator documents into HTML documents.
Therefore, the project includes:
- Choice between XML or XHTML. One of the main question is to now if XHTML can
be, or not, be used into the current GUI.
- If XML is used, implementation of XSL-T document for the creation of the
HTML files needed by the current GUI. Modification of the OSCAR Makefile for
the automatic generation of the HTML Configurator documents.
- "Translation" of current HTML files into XML/XHTML.
- Extend the current CLI to support Configuration in command line mode.
- Include the Configurator support into the new command line tool (oscar
script).
- Write a full documentation.
Project name: xoscar
* Keywords: C++, Qt4, CLI
* Bug#:
* Problem Summary: a set of new tools are currently under development with
the goal to support virtualization and disk-less solution, but also to provide a
new GUI based on modern technical solution. For that, the OSCAR team started to
develop a C++/Qt4 GUI. However, this GUI still does not support all the
capabilities provided by the new OSCAR tools (the new GUI is based on a new
CLI).
* Problem Description: The GUI has to be finalized and extended in order to
support virtualization (via V2M/OSCAR-V).
Project name: V2M extension
* Keywords: virtualization, C++, KVM, lguest, VMWare
* Bug#:
* Problem Summary: Release new version of V2M, including the support of new
virtualization solutions such as lguest, KVM, and VMWare.
* Problem Description:
- Release V2M v1.0 (see current roadmap).
- Release V2M v1.1 (see current roadmap).
- Include the support of lguest, KVM in priority and optionally VMWare. Each
time a new solution is supported, release a new version of V2M. Note that
the exact list of supported features will have to be decided, as the way to
validate these features.-------------------------------------------------------------------------
