Hi!
I created the final repos for F12, the release rpms for them and did the
first pushes. Everything seems to be sane at this point -- if not let me
know soon, as now it's still easy to fix things in the final repos.
The buildsys and cvs are not yet fully adjusted/branched for F12. I did
a lot of preparation work for the builders(¹), but there iirc are some
things Xavier does in CVS to prepare for a new release that only he
knows about.
CU

(¹) I still don't want to do that sort of work, but I guess preparing
it myself was the fasted way to make sure things mostly went smooth for
everybody

Hi,
Can you post about what steps were involved in this process?

In Detail: No, as that would take multiple hours. But the rough and
mostly (not fully) up2date steps can be found on

Well, I know you're busy with doing the actual work, but I think lack of
documentation is one of the reasons why RPM Fusion doesn't have any new
admins outside of the existing "inner circle" volunteering. There's no way
for a new volunteer to start helping out if they don't know what they're
supposed to do. :-(

I would be very willing to contribute time and resources as I am able if
there were docs on how to get involved.

I fully agree. But talk to Xavier about that, I'm considering myself
only the rel-eng guy that highly unwillingly did some infra work here to
make sure RPM Fusion keeps running properly. Also note that even I don't
know how some things work in the infra area. That's for example the
reason why CVS isn't branched yet.
IOW: I want documentation and guidance from Xavier as well.
From the rel-eng standpoint there is not much documentation needed, as
the main parts are already on above page, obvious (but yes, that page
can be improved a lot) or documented on the Fedora side. The latter IMHO
is what we should aim for in general and only document things where we
differ, as that makes everybody's life easier.

Fully agreed. And I'm willing to help explaining things to people that
want to help when needed, but first Xavier has to let people in -- which
he afaics is preparing for.

They are now. Let me know if there are any problems. And don#t forget to
update your common checkout ;-)
