  Description     : System for grid computing on organizational
resources, using BOINC.

Jarifa (a.k.a OGM) is a system for grid computing on organizational
resources, using BOINC.
Jarifa is designed for situations where some entities that own computers
(Suppliers) have decided to let another entities (the Allocator) decide
how their computer time is to be divided among a set of BOINC projects.
With Jarifa, Suppliers are able to control the usage of their computers
(for example, the hours during which it does BOINC computation).
However, they have no control over which BOINC projects their computers
contribute to; the Allocator makes that decision.
The BOINC projects to which computing power is given need not be related
to either Suppliers or Allocator; they might be public projects like
Climateprediction.net or Rosetta@home.

Sending a copy to the Debian BOINC Maintainers list waiting for their
comments about keeping this package within the team.

Regards!

Hi Daniel

I'm really glad to see you here, I'm interested in Jarifa but I had the
impression that the development was finished, I'm subscribed at the
Jarifa's development mailing list [1] but the list is dead.

The best approach is to maintain the package in Debian with the Debian
BOINC Maintainers, in this way will be very easy to include Jarifa in
Ubuntu because will sync it eventually from Debian as René mentioned, so
will be great if you join us in the team ;-)

Dear all,

Thanks for all the feedback. Taking into account your point of view, I
will make the DEB package for Debian.  Thus, let me know from where I
should start to collaborate with you, firstly supporting the Jarifa
project, and when I have more experience, I'll help with more issues
of this group.

Best regards,

Daniel

PS: Fernando, the e-mail list is dead, because I'm the only one who
posted something there, so as the news where also published in the
Jarifa blog and the BOINC planet (http://boinc.unex.es/planet), I
thought that everyone was getting the updates :)

Adjoining you can find the package that I have created. Let me know
all the failures and bugs that I should fix.

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

Could you provide me the sources for the deb please? (dsc, orig.tar.gz
and debian.tar.gz).

Daniel: Are you subscribed in the list?, do you have an account in
Alioth [2]?

In the team we use Git [1] to maintain the packages, René what's needed
to have an instance for Jarifa? (for example: pkg-boinc/jarifa.git).

Regards,

[1] git.debian.org
[2] alioth.debian.org

Yes, without problem. Adjoining you can find the files.

I'm subscribed to the e-mail list, but I don't have an Alioth account.

I also use Git as my VCS for Jarifa source code. However, I have not
used it for making the Debs.

Daniel

PS: I have changed a bit some source files of Jarifa, to make the
Package, so if you want to have a look to the source code of Jarifa,
go to http://github.com/teleyinex/jarifa

I've just created jirafa.git repo, and add Daniel to pkg-boinc.


Cheers

interested to help so I'm glad Daniel join in the pkg-boinc team and
Jarifa will be active :-)

With the help of René I fixed it so now is under pkg-boinc/jarifa.git
[1].

Happy Hacking ;-)

Great, and sorry for my typo, I was asleep, and «Jirafa» looks more phonetically
correct for me that «Jarifa» :)

Hi everyone,

I have seen the changes, so thanks a lot. One thing, I have seen that
you have used my e-mail account daniellg@unex.es and I would prefer
teleyinex@gmail.com because the unex.es account may expire in the
following days, so please change it.

Best regards,

Daniel

thanks

Hi,

This is an automatic email to change the status of jarifa back from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 6 months.

If you are still interested in adopting jarifa, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 557757 ITP: jarifa -- System for grid computing on organizational resources, using BOINC.
 owner 557757 !
 thanks

However, it is not recommended to keep ITP for a long time without acting on
the package, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to refrain from
packaging that software. It is also a good idea to document your progress on
this ITP from time to time, by mailing <557757@bugs.debian.org>.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
