seul-dev



seul-dev is the group responsible for all software development for the SEUL Project. Each must have at least one leader, the larger groups ideally being split into 2 or more leaders as approripate.

All development occurs under the leadership of the System Architects, who make cross-functional decisions and help coordinate things in general.

What?


There are six primary development groups under seul-dev, each with different responsibilities:

  • seul-dev-admin:

    Responsible for the tools and utilities needed to maintain a SEUL machine. This includes everything from /sbin/init to the system-level configuration tools.

    This group is currently without an official leader, but please contact seul@seul.org if you would like to help out.

  • seul-dev-apps:

    This group's charter is to either find, modify, or create appropriate user-level applications, including "office" applications as well as smaller utilities such as mixers and screen savers.

    Micah Yoder is in charge of this group.

  • seul-dev-distrib:

    Distribution issues, such as packaging, libraries, and dependencies, are under this group's authority.

    George Bonser leads this group until further notice, pending personal medical issues.

  • seul-dev-help:

    The development and presentation of help and documentation is this group's job. This includes making available a help system, SEUL specific documentation, and existing documentation.

    This group is led by Ken Duck.

  • seul-dev-install:

    This group is charged with creating an installation method that can be used by our target user. This will likely be accompished by using a combination of new tools and existing installers.

    Randy Heineke is in charge of this group.

  • seul-dev-ui:

    This group has possibly the hardest job of all: that of choosing, constructing, maintaining, and enforcing a single user interface paradigm throughout the SEUL Project. GNOME will be the basis for this interface, and if all goes well, GNOME and the SEUL user inteface will be one and the same.

    Orn Hansen is the leader of this group.
