Back to Fedora — AMQP to Koji, sir your build is ready.
Well last spring and this summer I ended up taking a break from Fedora to spend time on some other projects that had come up including the PIC MATLAB project that I had blogged about earlier. The PIC MATLAB project has been a success so far and will hopefully be receiving continued funding to continue the development. More about that project will be posted in a later blog entry.
So back to Fedora. AMQP for Fedora has not really moved forward once I stopped working on it, but I am back and ready to take it head on. The first project I will be working on is creating an attachment to Koji that will broadcast notifications about package builds to the message bus, users will then be able to subscribe to this bus. The user end is a two-part system daemon and applet. The daemon will be in charge of the subscriptions (for now just pulling out of a config file) the applet will reside in the gnome notification area and will actually display the notification about the builds to the users.
So when will it be done. I hope by the end of the month, yes, just two weeks away.
Also on another note, you guys working on Free Electronic Library rock! I have been verifying all my school work with various tools packaged under this project and you have saved me more than a point or two. If that’s not profit I don’t know what is.
