Since the average active Maemo developers will become an active MeeGo developer soon, it would be good to have the testing and publishing processes aligned.

What about taking as a benchmark the use case of an application developer using the Qt SDK and OBS to go from source code to packages ready for Maemo 5, MeeGo (rpm) and Harmattan (deb). Then having a simple way to publish the packages in the channels where the users are.

Solving this default use case will help solving all the alternate cases. Concentrating on a specific alternate use case while not addressing this one looks like a more troublesome path. The driver of the use case propose is the MeeGo project. Maemo contributors interested could just join the discussion and work there, making sure the maemo.org implementation is consistent with this plan.
