* Jaffa
* Venemo
* lma
* x-fade
* rst38h
* crashanddie
and more
== Discussion topics ==
* finding source locations and identifying GOOD patches
* submitting potential patches to a central testing source
* making a new <code>mp-generic*</code> meta package
* discussing with lma about current n8x0 community ssu problems and workarounds and insight
* looking into getting the wiki sorted
** need wiki editor :P
* looking at how to manage the patchsets
** we know the N900 Fremantle system works well using git tags
** the 8x0 patchset currently contains 10 local based quilts
* we need a gitorious group to cover these ''Done: http://gitorious.org/community-ssu''
== Build Sources ==
We must gather together and list the main giturl sources and tags used to build from.
for instance:
http://gitorious.org/modest/modest tag 3.4.8
This allows us to reproduce builds and get source to the same location we build from.
<pre>
<lcuk> how many packages for n8x0 are you looking at including in an ssu?
<lcuk> and how have you considered looking at updating the system so far - you said its all manual at the moment
<lma> I have 10 (source) packages at the moment
<lcuk> do you mind listing them

Process

As started being discussed on talk.maemo.org:

  1. Who ultimately owns the CSSU?
  2. How will included improvements be decided?
    • Will there be an inclusive policy - every improvement that someone is willing to work on will be included - or will there be a gatekeeper that will decide what to include?
    • Is the scope limited to improving packages which are included by Nokia in the OS; or should it grow to include "useful" stuff?
    • Should wholesale replacement of apps (such as Media Player) be done with open source, feature- & UI-compatible versions; if available?
  3. How will testing be organised?
    • Positive
    • Negative
    • Regression
    • Installation from scratch
    • Upgrade from previous version
  4. How will it be advertised?
  5. How will it be supported?
    • Bugzilla
    • IRC?
    • Forum
  6. At what point do bugs get set to RESOLVED FIXED? Such as #3700
