Thanks guy for such quick response...
1. For a start, I would be very interested in creating an ebuild files for
Gentoo. As I am not able to do much of coding - lack of spare time due to
my job - I would like to at least try to help by creating ebuild files for
fellows "Larry fans" :))) Will probably open a bug on bugs.gentoo.org so
that progress could be monitored there...
You happen to hit another Larry the cow
fans ("If it moves, compile it!").
Please CC me on the relevant BZ in Gentoo's bugz.
2. There is an article on wiki.gentoo.org already about oVirt (and please
don't laugh when You read it - those few sentences are written around
midnight last night, as a reminder :) ). I will write a proper article as
soon as I find the time, hopefully by the midnight tonight :))) Stay
tuned...
I think this is a project that has been missing for a long time - at least
I know I needed this kind of software - so I hope oVirt will mature quickly
enough. I hope that ovirt wiki will get a bit organized and maybe not so
fedora-centric down the line, but... quite good for a start... :)
Sounds good, you need to differentiate between 2 setups;
1. Development setup, which is mostly what we have now.
2. Packaged setup. Well in Gentoo it's not that different since it will compile
from sources. That said, since the GWT compiler is a memory hog we'll have to
introduce
some USE flags to keep it working even for GECO only (and then allow other
browsers).
Anyway I recommend starting with (1), and as we progress move to (2).
