just a general idea, but wouldn't it make sense to revive the arch-releng mailing list a bit + found a release engineering team?
We got a few additions to our monthly releases:
* Arch Linux Docker * Arch Linux Vagrant Boxes * Arch Linux Cloud Images (soon) * Arch Linux Tarball
Would be cool, if we could manage to revive the #archlinux-releng channel on freenode, revive the mailing list and maybe even have weekly meetings, like the devops team has.
That sounds like a good idea actually. IMHO the effort to streamline this further is a team effort. A lot of work in the container direction has already been done by you, which is great! The arch-releng mailing list is not dead though. Contributions are happening, but unfortunately there's noone to merge them after review currently. I didn't even know #arch-releng existed. Idling there now! :) Also, I got an offlist offer for help from someone who has seemingly been working towards build automation of sorts. I guess someone needs to add my SSH key to the repo for things to progress further. Best, David -- https://sleepmap.de
