Hej Tomasz well if there is any topic to be raised, I'll keep an eye on IRC and I will try to answer the same day > And - do you need some help from team? Vagrant LXC boxes have currently no maintainer, Kurt (Kremitzki) (DM) said he could help uploading, let's see what's happen there. Appart from that, I hope that the sprint will be an occasion to share the knowledge about the great build system Bastian made, so other persons can work / contribute on it :) cheers Emmanuel -- You know an upstream is nice when they even accept m68k patches. - John Paul Adrian Glaubitz, Debian OpenJDK maintainer

Plans for Vagrant Base boxes for Debian 11 / Bullseye
Hello For the next Debian release, I aim to have converted the current vagrant boxes tool chain to use fai-diskimage so it can be integrated to the debian-cloud-images repository. I expect this to be quite a bit of work, as fai has its own learning curve, and the current vagrant box build process has many steps, and covers two hypervisors, VirtualBox and libvirt with kvm. Expected goals is to have the boxes listed in the Cloud Image web folder like Centos and Ubuntu. Also the current process of me building locally 12 images and uploading them via a poor ADSL connection does not scale. For his reason and because my own resources are limited, I don't intend to release old stable and stable point releases for Vagrant Base boxes during this development cycle. Vagrant boxes are meant to provide portable **development** environments, so I don't see a security concern. At some point the current vagrant cloud account, which I share the access with Antonio (Terceiro) and Lucas (Nussbaum) should be put in SPI's hand I suppose. If something here looks wrong, just shout. PS: I cannot attend the debian-cloud sprint this year, but thank you Tomasz for pushing the tedious organizing work ! Hope to see you guys at the next sprint ! Manu
