Hi team Today on the multi-OS meeting we were talking about the first point of the MultiOS spec file: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/619801/ - Reorganize the STX Flock source: Which means, making a split directory structure that separates the flock source code from the packaging meta-data. A new stx-flock repo will contain the packaging meta-data that the build system will consume, just as it does with the stx-integ and stx-upstream repos. With a separated directory for each OS that we want to support. i.e: https://gist.github.com/VictorRodriguez/662a976736e4c1e91759e76d6619a7ab The reason to propose that is to follow the good practice of many upstream projects( i.e. python, perl, gcc, etc), they isolate the source code from the operating system management by having the software project repo with just source code, making easy for other distribution to just download their release tarball and use it in their build scripts. The counterpart of this idea is to keep the flock services with the metadata as they are and add a subdirectory for centos and other OS that we will support, this with the aim of providing better developer experience by having everything on the same repository ( both metadata and flock source code). I took the liberty to make a script to clone[0] all the stx-flock services and review what is the % of diff referred to spec files in the centos directory [0] https://gist.github.com/VictorRodriguez/52b15ff870e2bd402337d5e279651dbc Giving me this result stx-config = 3.800 % stx-distcloud = 0 % stx-distcloud-client = 0 % stx-fault = 10.200 % stx-gui = 1.800 % stx-ha = 3.300 % stx-nfv = 2.300 % stx-update = 22.000 % stx-metal = 6.100 % As I can see only one stx-update might be the only one with more than 20% of diffs related to metadata, which means that most of the changes are for pure flock sw code Now, this is a change that requires inputs from the core members and contributors to the stx-flock services, we will really appreciate the vote and feedback of them Feedback more than welcome Regards Victor Rodriguez
