[lsb-discuss] unofficial LSB teleconference minutes -- 07 Aug 2013

Tue Aug 13 14:47:34 UTC 2013

looks as though this got over-looked last week.  Sending 
belatedly.  Sort of rough, but I err on the side of 
completeness as to Mats's 'point in time' inventory of NSPR 
commonality

Meeting opens at 11:00 with:

Keld reports on LSB/ISO connection.  He discussed with SC22 
plenary, who are still supportive of LSB 4.1 as a "refresh" to 
ISO-LSB.  There's an action to report further at the next 
plenary, in Sept 2013.  Danish standards are supportive. 
Some investigation to be done on whether a low-touch build of 
LSB can be done to submit to ISO - if it's complicated, it's 
probably not worth pursuing. Keld will interact with Jeff to 
see about "asking the question" (to LF, at least), and with 
Mats on learning how to build things.

S390X Hercules-based infrastructure: now exploring having 
two slaves for each. This would alleviate the crush of trying 
to get something done on these emulators.  Currently being 
impeded by a Hercules bug - using a 32-bit data type in a 
place that breaks large image files (a fix exists).  Another 
problem is that these are not really supported 
architectures... the fedora repo, for example, is invalid (no 
repodata). We can of course generate repodata after creating a 
mirror. XXX more info here on Texas and Marist data centers...

Call ends at local Noon
