[OpenWrt-Devel] FYI: Paper: Normalized sourcecode repositories

2010-09-12 Thread Enrico Weigelt

Hi folks,


jfyi: here's a little paper on how to the oss-qm project handles
normalized sourcecode repositories and automatic imports (from
upstream as well as certain distros), in order to allow easy
sharing of changesets between distros/projects as well as allowing
automatic systems (eg. distro build systems) auto directly operate
on w/ minimal per-package adaptions.

Feel free to comment on it :)

Hi folks,


i've collected several rules which upstreams should follow for
making distro maintainer's life much easier.

Comments welcomed :)

[OpenWrt-Devel] importing patches into git

2010-09-08 Thread Enrico Weigelt
Hi folks,


I'd like to automatically import packages into git repositories
(as I'm already doing w/ other distros [1]). My biggest problem
for now is finding out the right upstream versions the individual
openwrt patches are based on.

Could anyone please give me some advise ? Is there some easier
way than parsing/interpreting the Makefiles ?

[OpenWrt-Devel] Announce: OSS QM project

2010-08-20 Thread Enrico Weigelt
Hi folks,


I'd just like to you to know about the OSS-QM project. It's main
goal is to provide fixed versions of various upstream releases
(especially for fully-automated- and cross-compiling) and make
them available on canonical locations, so automated build systems
can directly patch from there w/o need for additional patching.

https://sourceforge.net/p/oss-qm/

A basic concept is that everything's maintained in git repos
(instead of text-based patches). Each vendor (aka distro, etc)
has it's own namespace (eg. myself is METUX.*), so they dont
conflict each other, but still can easily share changesets
(even fully automatic notifications on other's changes, etc).

Feel free to comment on this.

[OpenWrt-Devel] FYI: paper on oss-qm project

2010-05-02 Thread Enrico Weigelt

Hi folks,

JFYI: i've written a little paper on the oss-qm project, which aims
to provide fixed/stabelized sourcetrees for lots of packages+versions
in order to offload lots of QM/patching works from the individual
distros and self-building people:
