MeeGo Packaging School 2010

During June 2010 the community will host an online "Packaging School" weekend which will support developers and packagers in learning to use the OBS and in packaging their applications.

There will be a tutorial (supported by Nokia - tbc) and sessions run in irc.

Experienced Packagers from the Fedora Project will be around giving IRC classrooms and working on packages with the community. We hope to have expert packagers from both deb and rpm (and some of us new to the art)...
