Hello, My name is Surendran K. and I would like to work on the installer platform framework for reviewboard. I'd like to have your feedback on the idea before I start writing my application.
Here is my understanding of the project :- 1. I am to write a framework(which would use pip/distribute as the base) and provide functionality for upgrading dependencies, installing dependencies, upgrading reviewboard and installing reviewboard. I find that there are tools which do package management in a more efficient manner than setuptools(easy_install), so I'd like to use them instead. 2. Provide a UI for the same. Both the UI and the framework used in [1] could use the same API. Making a CLI based tool, a Qt based tool(for windows and KDE) and a GTK+ tool would be easier this way. 3. Provide support for extensions which are used by ReviewBoard.(upgrading and installing). Id love to have more feedback about what you think about this.
