[CentOS-devel] Introductions, and interest in package building (OVS, OVS+DPDK)

[Leif Madsen]

Hey folks,

Quick intro here. Name is Leif Madsen, and I work at Red Hat on a team
doing NFV, and I'm team lead on the DevOps/CI side of things for that team.

I've recently been playing around with building Open vSwitch via copr and
building out a small script to trigger periodic rebuilds of ovs-master. I
recently submitted my first patch to OVS to convert from building with
rpmbuild directly to allowing things to build via mock.

I'm interested in the work being done around getting OVS and OVS+DPDK built
for CentOS. I recently applied for the Cloud-SIG group (as suggested by Jim
Perrin). I've also been tracking RDO and am interested in contributing
there where I can.

At this point, while I'm familiar with package building, and using mock
(and recently some other tools like copr), I'd like some guidance around
package workflow within CentOS, RDO, Fedora, etc so that I can better
understand, and ideally contribute going forward.

Any pointers to documentation or other information that you think would be
relevant and useful would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Leif.
