Hi all,
It has been a while since our kick off meeting and without much activity, so I was feeling adventurous this morning and thought of giving a first try to deliver a DPDK rpm for the NFV SIG.
Does this seem reasonable and if so where do I start?
Thanks
Joseph

Hi Joseph,
Yes! I have been beating myself up about the SIG not getting momentum over the last couple of weeks - unfortunately the OPNFV release has been delayed and taken a lot of cycles.
I think DPDK 2.0 is an excellent place to start - and with the DPDK patches to OVS landed, that seems like a great place to continue afterwards.
KB: Joseph is one of the core committers to the NFV SIG, what does he need to do now to make this first RPM in the community build service for the NFV SIG, please?
Thanks, Dave.

Hi Joseph,
Documentation to access CBS http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CommunityBuildSystem
If you're new to RPM, though it's a bit old, it's the most excellent teaching material. https://www.gurulabs.com/downloads/GURULABS-RPM-LAB/GURULABS-RPM-GUIDE-v1.0....
I also suggest to follow Fedora Packaging Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines Though we could relax some of them (like library unbundling), they are good practices to follow in the long-term.
------
Suggested first steps: 1. create a git repository (publicly accessible) 2. starts with scratch builds on CBS (or use Fedora Copr service) 3. Asks someone to review your package (we could leverage github comments)
Since Cloud SIG will be a consumer of NFV packages, feel free to reach me out for packaging questions or reviews.
Regards, H.

A small correction: it's the other way around. The NFV SIG will be a consumer of Cloud packages as a basis, and upgrade/replace components necessary to test newer NFV related features.
Thanks, Dave.

Works for me, anyway, we have interest in helping NFV SIG for its bootstrap and make it successful :)
Thanks, Dave.
