[Yast4debian-devel] Personal status report

[Stanislav Visnovsky]

Hi all

Technical comment about portability: in SUSE Linux 10.0 (or openSUSE), YaST 
storage module uses a library with C++ API to access the system. The library 
defines its API via SWIG interface. The idea is to support portability by 
replacing/adapting the library below, so the rest of YaST does not need to 
change.

Another example of this approach is the bootloader module and partially 
package manager.

BTW, is the mailing list open already or not? Personally, I feel it's fine to 
open it up.

Stano
