<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I been working on a Debian based ostree package management system for the past couple of months. It is similar to how rpm-ostree manages packages with ostree on Fedora. I was wondering if there were any objections to adding the repository
to the starlingx namespace on <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/opendev.org?__;!!AjveYdw8EvQ!YPEW0Kab6M1hz6pbYzHOhQ_khQOwG90S7EmOyVfTRXVVALfj-2KfGKo3e9KTKjDB5vYhp_YnWE2YvptC1O9baK7EpcNYXpg$">
