IRC meeting for Embedded Gentoo |
2 |
|
3 |
2000 UTC next Sunday (Nov. 23) in #gentoo-embedded on irc.freenode.net. |

The primary purpose is to iron out and finalize the planning so we can |
6 |
really get started. We also want to get more people directly involved. |
7 |
I know its not the greatest time, but I tried to make it reasonable for |
8 |
people as many as possible. I encourage everyone to attend. Afterward, |
9 |
we'll post the complete IRC log. |

|
11 |
On the agenda, here's what we see immediately in front of us, in terms |
12 |
of work: |
13 |
|
14 |
1. Cross Compilers (Kumba) |
15 |
2. Toolchain, esp uClibc stuff (solar) |
16 |
3. Portage: ibuild vs. portage, need to iron out all the stuff we're not |
17 |
sure about, profiles, ROOT=, chroot for building, etc. |
18 |
4. Baselayout-lite: either cut down the current baselayout or put |
19 |
together a baselayout-lite |
20 |
5. Handhelds: ebuilds for opie/gpe/stuff like that along with ebuilds |
21 |
for handhelds.org along with other stuff for iPAQ hardware support |
22 |

24 |
After the agenda items, we'll open it up for general discussion. |
25 |
|
26 |
On a side note, obviously we're going to be recruiting more people to |
27 |
work on the project. Generally speaking, asking to become a dev is |
28 |
usually bad form. We're looking for people with ability, but also for |
29 |
people that are willing to be invested in the project, and can function |
30 |
in team. We're not asking that you ignore your real life |
31 |
responsibilities, but to be around a reasonable amount of time, for |
32 |
contributing, taking bugs, etc. We don't want people to disappear all |
33 |
of a sudden. But those who don't become developers, don't worry; we'll |
34 |
still take contributions. So for those who really interested in |
35 |
becoming devs, the best way is, if possible, to be in the IRC channel, |
36 |
speak up, and contribute :) |
