In line with:
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/ogb/policies/project-instantiation.txt
I''d like to propose the following project:
OpenSolaris Xen project
Sponsoring communities: ON, Xen
This OpenSolaris project will focus on the development and hosting of
the Xen support provided as part of the ON Nevada and Indiana projects.
In particular the intent of this project is to provide storage and
management for the Xen gate, which is composed of a number of Mercurial
source repositories. This software includes (at this time):
- urlgrabber
- virt-install
- libvirt
- the Xen hypervisor and control tools
This project does not cover the support already within ON for running on
Xen, which remains part of the ON consolidation. The initial project
team will be a party of one: myself.
The intent at some point, hopefully soon, is to migrate the entirety of
the currently-internal Xen gate out to running on opensolaris.org.
Almost all elements of this are in place already: the only significant
components missing are integration with existing gatekeeper procedure,
and some work on the Xen gate tools to understand opensolaris.org''s
setup.
Comments?
