This is request to include the packages(not all of them) in openSUSE Factory, and possibly 11.3 later. Reproducible: Always
Should this have gone on https://features.opensuse.org/ ?
+1 for me... kiwi-ltsp is great and works fine!
The inclusion will largely serve as an impetus for further development of this great project. With increased exposure, the motivation to deliver a quality project shall also increase.
Yes, please include it in OpenSUSE, it will make OpenSUSE more attractive to people who want to build thin client clusters.
why not Factory:Contrib? And I agree with #1 Having it in Factory means currently that someone from novell needs to review them and that's why we created contrib where everyone capable can maintain packages that go with a specific openSUSE release. And for having it on the DVD it's a bit too special use case, so it would be online repo only anyway.
Not on the DVD, but Factory and OSS online repo. Instead of Contrib isn't current location - server:ltsp more appropriate? Idea is to include it officially in the distribution. I am sure we can make a same kind of arrangement we have in place for compiz to maintain this as well.
It's feature https://features.opensuse.org/305851 now. I voted for it :)
