[CentOS-devel] Meeting minutes from CentOS SCLo SIG sync-up meeting on #centos-devel (2014-12-17)

Short wrap-up:
* scl packages get build as scratch build already
  * but there is a problem in centpkg and centos koji with fedora-like 
layout and these tools only support centos layout (spec files in SPECS, 
sources in SOURCES dir)
  * hhorak will see how big problem this is regarding the cherry-picking 
and merging, since it is an important requirement for rhscl maintainers 
to user centos as upstream
  * it is not problem to keep any structure in upstream repos, but how 
to build such packages is not very clear

* prefixes conversation -- very long one
  * using rh- prefix should solve:
    1) separate rh driven/shipped scls from other communities
    2) not cause huge pain on people writing dependent collections
    3) not stomping on existing (non-scl) package names
  * then there was a long discussion about where the prefix should be 
used -- whether in the name of the collection or in the dist tag
    ... many thought given, but no consensus reached so far, so the 
conversation will continue somehow, somewhere
