awesome ... i will check those a bit later.
Unfortunately the names change, and I don't know how to set up a "current" link. However, there are stable URLs that get you most of the way there, e.g.
http://jameswestby.net:8080/view/Hardware%20Packs/job/linaro-omap3%20hwpack/...
I know that some partners might have problems to access this on port 8080 ... is there a way to make these available on port 80 for now?
I can give others access to trigger builds etc. on request, and can also add people to the list of recipients of the build failure emails.
I think Steve L., Jamie (and me for a while) probably want those mails.
Also, the "Name" has the same restrictions as the package name, so I just took the "linaro-omap3" style, rather than the "Linaro OMAP3" one.
OK. thought it was the "readable name" field. fine with me.

"The cache has no package named 'linux-image-ux500'"
yes, jcribgy did not add the meta package to the kernel ppa yet. CCed him so we can have those asap.
2. if vendors can ship non-free, click-through hwpacks for highly proprietary graphics, codec and other support
What do you mean by "click-through"?
This wasn't highlighted in the spec, so if it is important there will be a little more work to support this.
This is outside of the spec. the idea is that if hwpacks can only be distributed through special means (aka click through, registration), vendors can put those full packs on their own website with their own click through mechanism etc. In this way we don't need to bother about the problems with non-free packs.
So for now, we as linaro won't distribute hwpacks in that way in a daily fashion.
2. update linaro-image-tools package to contain your latest goodies
I'm awaiting some further reviews from my team in order to land all of the branches that are being used to create them.
OK, let me know if you need anything from our side.
4. add support for installing hwpacks in linaro-media-create
Salgado was working on this, but has been out for a few days. It's obviously important to be able to install.
Guilherme, are you happy to continue working on this, or would you like me to carry on your work?
5. either add linaro-image-tools to headless and head images 5a. ... or install and remove it during linaro-media-creation 6. update plars "download image" script to get the appropriate hwpack together with the head the user wants.
How do we work hwpacks in to the ISO tracker?
I have no strong opinion on how we do that. I think Paul had some ideas (CCed)
Thanks,
Thanks to you for your great work!
