Description |
We need to define the use case(s) that describe how a community member can register the availability of an install-able software or application package++ such that other community members can discover it. Packages may mean RPM/DEB-style packages, Mac or Windows installers, VM images, or containers/snaps. The idea is to cover software that users must install or instantiate for themselves before using. (As opposed to software or applications that are already installed/configured for people to use.) Open issues include authorization & registration (who can legitimately declare something as available), valid/trusted/verified sources (what sources can XSEDE trust as legitimate), etc... |
