Q&A Section

Please add your questions or remarks about topics from the agenda here if you can't participate. We will try to answer them in the meeting.

Your Name Question/Comment
Larry Stotler What is the status of putting support for the "Old Wold" Macs back in(those with OpenFirmware < v3.0)? Is it going to happen, or is it going to be dropped? v10.2/Alpha 2 installer still fails to start properly. It evidently kernel panics because it automatically reboots after 30 seconds. openSuSE requires less resources than Mac OS X and offers better support for older video chipsets.
houghi Will internal tools and scripts be made available for everybody? e.g. the new create_package_descr that will be used for 10.2 or any other tools used?
houghi Will there be test directories and files available to test updating?
Vesa Jääskeläinen Are you going to allow easier selection of Update mirrors (like it used to be on earlier versions) as at least I have had problems with slow links and aborted downloads. This causes then again problem in updating agent to make quite long wait until there is possibly to retry or abort. Another feature to think about would be to download multiple files at same time when getting updates, also during installation of the package files could be download at same time. If one transfer hangs for some reason new one would be started.
