* [[Modularization]]—here's the gist: <!-- includes the summary from the Modularization page --> {{:Modularization}}
* [[Modularity_Working_Group|Modularity WG]]
 
Note we are all still getting organized and nothing's set in stone yet.
 
==Get in touch==
 
There's no dedicated mailing list yet and everything regarding this topic should be discussed on the general Fedora Development list [https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel.lists.fedoraproject.org/].  Most of us also hang out on the #fedora-modularization channel on Freenode.
 
==Planning==
 
Formal meetings will be held by the Modularity Working Group, once established.  See the [[Modularity_Working_Group|Modularity Working Group page]] for more information.
 
We will ''probably'' use agile development for Modularization, using a Fedora Taiga instance [http://taiga.fedorainfracloud.org/project/langdon-modularity/] to manage the project.
 
==Technical details==
 
===Architecture===
 
The current idea we're working with comprises of three main parts, some more complex than others. This can change at any point.
 
# Module sources - not yet defined; these could be RPM repositories, comps files, simple component lists, COPRs, docker images...
# A service consuming the module sources and providing digested metadata for the end clients.
# The end clients communicating with the service, for example a standalone installation tool, a dnf plugin or a web service providing pretty module overview.
 
===Code repositories===
 
We currently host all of our code at Pagure [https://pagure.io/] - the metadata service, its client, metadata drafts and even a couple of proof-of-concept modules.  Repositories typically start with the ''fm-'' prefix and are open to all members of the Pagure modularization group [https://pagure.io/group/modularization].
 
===Documentation===
 
This differs for every project.
 
Documentation for the client is hosted at ReadTheDocs.org [http://fm-dnf-plugin.readthedocs.org/en/latest/] and is being automatically rebuilt every 15 minutes. This will be handled by Pagure commit hooks once that feature is implemented and deployed.
 
===Metadata service===
 
The metadata service was deployed on a test server and populated with testing data. The client is configured to use this instance at this point.
