Howdy,
List newbie here, but I have had a read through much of the archives and the
web pages.
I'm trying to ascertain the actual feature development roadmap for ubuntu
server (is there one?)
I can see from the webpages [1] that there are a number of activities listed,
but to me they describe a variety of important activities but not much in the
way of a feature roadmap as such.
I can see :
* fix bugs
* improve management of upstream packages
* improve testing
* improve documentation
The three that are features are :
* Integrate AppArmour
* Simplify Storage management during install
* improved LDAP integration
Is that it? And is there a target ubuntu release for those features?
Personally I'd like to see added and would be able to provide some assistance
with :
* Xen integration
* openjdk integration + Tomcat + J2EE stack as a server platform (sorry, LAMP
just doesn't cut if for me flames -> /dev/null ;-) )
* selinux integration
* Highly Avallable Linux systems ie. LVS etc
* Centralized Systems management via Puppet
* Automated install
* I'd also like to see ubuntu-server conforming to Carrier Grade Linux
* crash dump management ie lkcd et al
* I'd also like to see plans for server hardening, beyond apparmour/selinux
methodologies.
*
* etc etc... many things :-)
Are these sorts of things in line with the development plans for
ubuntu-server?? Or are they in there already in case i've missed finding
(always possible) a valuable reference somewhere :-)
