I've just read the IRC logs. And there's one thing I would like to make super clear. We, ie: Debian & Ubuntu folks, are very much clear on what we want to achieve. The project has been maturing in our heads for like more than 2 years. We would like that ultimately, only a single set of packages Git repositories exist. We already worked on *some* convergence during the last years, but now we want a *full* alignment. We're not 100% sure how the implementation details will look like for the core packages (like about using the Debconf interface for configuring packages), but it will eventually happen. For all the rest (ie: Python module packaging), which represent the biggest work, we're already converging and this has zero controversy. Now, the Fedora/RDO/Suse people jumped on the idea to push packaging on the upstream infra. Great. That's socially tempting. But technically, I don't really see the point, apart from some of the infra tooling (super cool if what Paul Belanger does works for both Deb+RPM). Finally, indeed, this is not totally baked. But let's please not delay the Debian+Ubuntu upstream Gerrit collaboration part because of it. We would like to get started, and for the moment, nobody is approving the /stackforge/deb-openstack-pkg-tools [1] new repository because we're waiting on the TC decision.
