[arch-events] Talk proposal: Can we build a simple, cross-distribution installation framework?

[Dieter Plaetinck]

Hi Wouter and friends,

I'm interested in giving the following session:
"Can we build a simple, cross-distribution installation framework?"

Although I will think about the format further, it will probably be
mostly about these two things:
On one hand to explain the philosophy and implementation of the Arch
Linux installation framework, and most importantly: lessons learned from
it.
on the other hand I want to initiate a discussion on how multiple
distributions can work together maintaining an installation framework
and whether it would be feasible to do so.
In my experience, many issues and features are
distribution-independent. Specific distributions could be supported
with plugins or feature branches.
