[amd-gfx] Amdgpu-pro

[StDenis, Tom]

Hi Hal,


Again, please don't ask about pro-stack schedules (also I don't know them off hand anyways).  For FOSS UMD/KMD schedules typically their schedules are public as we're participating as close to real-time as we can.  Just don't ask about "when is feature X going to appear in this FOSS project?" because feature/bringup roadmaps/schedules are not public.


I realize you're probably asking in jest but we're still a bit on edge what we can/can't say on this new list.  All upstreamable work is eventually supposed to be discussed *first* on this list and not our internal dev list which is a culture change as we do discuss things that aren't IP/business cleared regularly.  In the coming weeks this list will become more and more active as AMDers migrate here (and get used to using it).


I will ask internally about an openSUSE pro build and see if the build managers don't throw a chair at me :-)

Cheers,
Tom

Tom,

That's a shame.  Have you got a schedule for when you will be able to
comment on the Fedora release schedule?  ;)
