Greetings. I've whipped up the early ideas of a way to replace (most) spins with something that is more generic and useful. I have signed up for a fudcon session to brainstorm on this idea and see if it can be beaten into a plan/schedule/feature, or if it's not going to work for whatever reason.
I have a very brainstormy/draft wiki page outlining the idea at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_formulas The short version: Setup a infrastructure/framework around a collection of ansible playbooks to allow our users to simply download a formula for what they want to do and have a curated setup made for them using Fedora packages. Want a electionics lab setup? download. review. answer some questions. click. Want a LAMP stack? download. review. answer some questions. click. Want a openstack demo cluster? ditto. Want a graphics designer workstation? ditto. Note that this assumes you have already installed Fedora, it's a post install setup. This would mean that we should continue to do spins for various desktops as people may way to install their desktop as a base before adding on formulas. Of course there's tons of details/questions to work out (many listed on the wiki page, but I'm sure there are more details too). So, what do folks think? Workable? Crazy? Crazy enough to work? :) kevin
