Package split
40
-------------
41
42
IVLE will be split into a few packages:
43
44
* ``ivle`` will be the all-in-one package, which users can install to get a 
45
  working IVLE with all tasks on a single node. It will depend on 
46
  ``ivle-app-server``, ``ivle-usrmgt-server``, *PostgreSQL*, and perform extra 
47
  automated configuration for the Subversion service.
48
* ``ivle-app-server`` will contain the web code, trampoline, timount and co., 
49
  depend upon the packages necessary for an appserver, and perform just the 
50
  configuration for an appserver (generating config files, scheduling timount 
51
  runs, etc.)
52
* ``ivle-usrmgt-server`` will contain and configure the usrmgt-server.
53
* ``ivle-server-common`` will contain those bits common to the server tasks, 
54
  but not in the ivle Python package, and not needed in the jail.
55
* ``ivle-jail`` might not be in the archive, instead being built by 
56
  ivle-create-jail - it will contain the extra jail scripts.
57
* ``python-ivle`` will contain the ivle Python package.
