Hi all, I wanted to create some ebuilds for at least one community server (represented by a bunch of ebuilds);
So, I was looking for the right category for all of those ebuilds that belong
to this software, however, I didn't find a proper category for each of them
at all :(
The software I am talking about is called YaCS (yet another community system)
and consists of the following parts (that are being split up into seperate
ebuilds):
dev-libs/libyacsutil
- the support library (client/server)
community-libs/libyacs
- the YaCS core framework library (server)
community-server/yacsd
- the UNIX daemon process finally serving the community
app-admin/yacsadmin
- the server console administration tool
app-benchmarks/yb
- a server benchmarking tool (think of / like: ab, the apache benchmark)
www-apache/mod_yacs
- the apache module that serves as the front-end for the end-users
community-server/yacs-meta
- the meta package for YaCS, in case everything has to be
run on a single server
Now, you see, I already proposed my (in my mind) ideal categories.
The problem are two packages I couldnn't fit into currently existing
categories.
In fact, we even haven't any community server in portage yet (and there do
exist quite a few).
So, I might have a little (continuous) brain-dead and though, would like to be
pointed to the right category for those two packages; otherwise, I'd like to
propose those two new categories - in that case: who's the karma to initiate
them?
Other community software I found (*and* are free):
* boo - http://yallara.cs.rmit.edu.au/~malsmith/products/boo/
* yChat - http://www.ychat.org/
* SPiN Chat System - http://chat.spin.de/en/ (dunno what kinda license it is)
note: while browsing google, I found lots of commercial software of this
subject and just a few few (serious) open sourced ones.
So, finally, in what category could those packages be placed in?
Thanks in advance,
Christian Parpart.
