EPICS - Invited Talk EPICS - Invited Future of EPICS

Speaker

Ralph Lange (ITER Organization)

Description

For more than ten years, NSLS-II have provided Debian packages for many EPICS parts and tools to the community as a public repository. The packaging effort is shared and hosted at GitHub's epicsdeb organization. Following recent changes at BNL and the departure of key persons, this established collaboration is at risk.
Other institutes have been packaging for RHEL, but as more or less isolated efforts and without the packages being available to the public.
Which direction should this go? How can we organize to share effort efficiently and produce more packages of higher quality?
