Hi all,

As we have agreed on moving the Kimchi Host tab to Ginger community and creating a new plugin (ginger-basic), I want to list step-by-step what we need to do *on Kimchi side*.

1) Will we call this new plugin as ginger-basic? Any other suggestion?

I think keeping it as ginger is better. ginger-basic sounds like there's ginger-advanced (or similar), when there really isn't anything like that. What we have is just additional functionality based on your OS flavor. So keeping ginger as the plugin name, to me, is the easiest. Then all it takes is looking up your flavor: ginger-[ppc|z|pickled]

The final goal of ginger-basic is to handle only host basic information, host statistics and debug reports.
Those features were identified as common between Kimchi and Ginger so the need of a new plugin (ginger-basic).
You can check the other thread where we decided to do that in: http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/kimchi-devel/2015-August/011173.html

The idea of this email in only clarify what we need to do as we've already had an agreement in the concept.

About the plugin name, you can suggest other one which may be better understood than ginger-basic - as you said it sounds to there is a ginger-advanced.



2) Create the new plugin structure into wok branch, ie, create a directory named ginger-basic (?) and all it is needed to launch it as a wok plugin, including building and packaging details.
    In this first moment, the entire Host tab will be part of the ginger-basic - just to move the discussion as soon as possible to Ginger community.

3) Add ginger-basic plugin as a Kimchi dependency.

Once we have those items done, I will create a new repository for ginger-basic under kimchi-project organization in Github.
After that, the discussion *will be moved to Ginger community*, ie, all patches and discussion must be sent to the Ginger mailing list (https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/ginger-dev-list)

I have sent to Ginger community the next steps to be done there. Please, check: "[Ginger-dev-list] [RFC] Inheriting Kimchi's Host tab"

Let me know what you think about that.

Regards,
Aline Manera
