Hey guys,

Looks like some of you are interested in contributing to the FrameOS
project so I'm posting this instead of keeping it private so those of
you interested in participating can do so.

Linode donated a 512 VPS last week to the FrameOS project for 6 months
and I've been busy setting it up as the first FrameOS builder host.

There are a couple of things I'd like to do with that new shiny build
host:

* Release/Announce the RBEL repo:

rbel.frameos.org

Public repo that will host the FrameOS specific packages for both
FrameOS5 and FrameOS6 so that other people using RHEL derived
distributions can easily use the FrameOS packages.

* RBEL repo website

Some nice graphics and texts for the new repo website

* Defining/building/testing the common set of packages that will be
hosted there

Every rbel package will be built against FOS5 and FOS6. Chef, NGINX,
Ruby/JRuby and related packages will be there.

Those of you interested in contributing, please, let me know so we can
coordinate.

Thanks!

Hey Kennez, great.

From the topics above, what do you feel like contributing right now?

I still need to publish the list of source packages that will be
there. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

If you can give me a brief outline of your build process and what you expect from the finished product, I would like to try my hand at building/testing packages for the 5 and 6 releases.

Sure.

I'm still documenting stuff for the contributors. In the meantime,
have a look at pkg-wizard (http://pkg-wizard.frameos.org). That's what
I use for building usually.

There's also upsmon.frameos.org, a little script I use to track RHEL6
upstream releases:

If you see a weird Passenger error, refresh the page a couple of
times :).

Apart from that, you need a clean FrameOS 5/6 install as a build
server. I've got some mock configs you'll need for building at:

Rgds.
