Hi folks,
So this idea came up in the netinstall download info thread [1],
although I have been thinking offhand for a while it might be a good
idea for other reasons (eg enabling testers to find the test images more
easily - every time I need to find a test image I can never find it. :) )
I'd like to mock something up so we can visualize what this would look
like and if it would work, but I'm not 100% sure all of the
downloadtypes we'd want on there. I think the primary things listed on
the site should be those that are not featured on the main websites -
they are not editions, spins, or labs (although we can link out to those
sites.)
To be able to mock this up though, I need to figure out what downloads
should be featured on the site, and we should probably talk about their
relative merits / use cases. Here is a (perhaps not exhaustive) list of
things we could list on this page:
- Netinstall ISOs (so these are built for specific editions, but this is
the one exception to featuring things not normally featured I think
would be a good idea)
- the minimal fedora image (it doesn't seem to have a home now?)
- docker containers
- Bittorrent torrent files (could just be a link to refer to torrent.fpo)
- Alternative architecture downloads
- Digging out dl.fpo / download.fpo / alt.fpo I found x86, aarch64,
ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, and s390 images.
- boot.fpo images
- testing images
- nightlies
- alpha / beta / tc / rc images
- archival images (could just point to archive.fpo)
- the everything DVD that lets you choose a desktop in syslinux that we
hand out at conferences (does this still exist?)
Am I forgetting anything?
