<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>Hi list,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>I am a member of the MapGuide Open Source
PSC and responsible for the build infrastructure for MGOS. We are
currently looking at revamping the build infrastructure for the MapGuide 2.2
release. Since MapGuide depends closely on FDO, we may be able to make
better use of the build VMs by using them to build FDO as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>Since I am already hosting the MapGuide
builds, hosting the FDO builds on the same VMs would not cost me (or the FDO
project) anything. Regular FDO builds (nightly/weekly) can be
accommodated. Builds intended for general community use would have to be
posted to the OSGeo download site since I do not have unlimited bandwidth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>Moving the FDO builds to community managed
infrastructure may provide faster turnaround on FDO releases and get the FDO
community more involved in the project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>In addition to the builds, I was unable to
find any build scripts in the FDO repository for creating CentOS rpms or Ubuntu
debs. I am currently investigating binary packaging for FDO and will be
able to contribute deb and rpm creation scripts to the project if they do not
already exist.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>Does this sound like an endeavour that the
FDO PSC would like to pursue?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>Regards,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA>Trevor<o:p></o:p></span></p>
