 RAOF | I think “pipeline” suggests something automated. Otherwise, yes. The pipeline is generally: upstream developer makes tarball from sources in VCS and releases it. Debian maintainer takes tarball and updates package. | 09:04:12 |

 cos | Pipeline (as i meant) can have manual steps such as acceptance testing. Making tarballs and pushing packages can be automated, but some kind of quality control is needed. | 09:05:42 |

| cos | Release pipeline could be simplified to 1) run script that produces and installs .deb 2) test it 3) run another script which uploads package to repo. | 09:07:03 |

| RAOF | Except you can't upload the binary deb to the archive; you can only upload sources. | 09:09:36 |
| RAOF | (I'd guess that packaging riot-web to Debian standard would probably be in excess of an engineer-year of work; there's a whole heap of stuff to do) | 09:10:44 |

| cos | Yes, the uploading can upload sources that you built testing .deb from. | 09:12:12 |
| cos | Btw are there other electron-based apps in debian? | 09:12:38 |

 lotus_ | I personally refuse to participate in such maddness, to run a web-client in kind-a-desktop version of it, which is just a browser with only one tab with that riot-web, crap. Should we have something C++, Rust, Python at least for primary desktop client? XMPP for example does have a lot of proper desktop clients, which are really decent, and zero electron shit | 09:27:56 |
