Hi folks, There's been some discussion between various teams (the trademark team, the CD team and debian-cloud people) about what should be done to enable production of official Debian images for various cloud platforms. We have a few requirements agreed for such images to be classed as *official* (i.e. blessed and released by Debian), and one of these is that they should be built on Debian hardware, controlled by the (increasingly inaccurately named!) Debian CD team. To get things going in time for Stretch, we're going to need to co-ordinate our work. I'm proposing the following timeline for official cloud images. * 2nd July: Initial images building on cdbuilder.debian.org That's the first day of DebConf16. I'll be around at DebCamp to work with people on getting these going if needed. * 3rd September: Requirements agreed for a test suite for cloud images To make sure that the images we're producing are sane with reasonable quality, we'll be running tests on them. We'll need to agree what should be tested (and how!). * 15th October: Images need to pass agreed test requirements All images will need to meet our agreed minimum test requirememnt to be considered ready to release as official Debian cloud images for Stretch. There are some other requirements that we've agreed for official images too, but this proposed timeline is the thing I want to push out today. If you want to discuss this timeline, please follow up on the debian-cloud list.
