Hi,

Wido and I have been talking about bringing Cloudstack into Debian.
There is quite a bit of work involved because several dependencies are
not yet packaged.

This obviously brings up the question if anyone else on either of the
developer lists is interested in working on it? Please raise your hands.

Also, as a bonus question to the Debian folks, should we try
establishing a cloudstack packaging group or do we push the effort into
the java packaging group?

Michael

Hi Wido / Michael,

I would like to be part of this group, have some RPM packaging experience in Cloudstack and Cloudplatform.

Regards,
Rayees

Cloudstack is more than welcome under the pkg-java umbrella if that
helps you getting started quickly. We'll be happy to help you with the
Java packaging tools.

Great! I'm not an expert at packaging for Debian. I created the
packaging because we needed it, but it's not perfect.

The main problem now is that we include all kinds of JAR files in our
packages which isn't ideal.

Please don't. This list is for general cloud stuff, like cloud-init,
which are of interest for everyone. I don't want to receive bug reports
for cloud-stack in my mail, for example.

Cheers,

Thomas

So the best next step would be for Wido to apply as and become a member
for Debian-Java, right? Wido, please get yourself an account on
alioth.debian.org for that.
