Hi,
Would it be worth having a Fedora Science and Technology lab or putting some of the packages used in CAE linux (https://www.caelinux.com/CMS3/) in the Robotics lab?

What do you mean by "lab"? Are you thinking of a new spin or something else?

Yes, a spin, though seems spin is used for alternative desktops (https://spins.fedoraproject.org/) and labs for functional bundles (https://labs.fedoraproject.org/)

FWIW the Fedora Council voted to do away with that terminology distinction because no one really understand it and it adds to our jargon load. So call it what you like. :)

Sorry---I missed this e-mail. A Scitech lab already exists, but will be stopped from F32 because it lacks a maintainer. (Please see my other e-mail to the list).
I don't know anything at all about CAE, but the usual process applies. Someone has to package and maintain the software in Fedora, and then putting it into a lab/spin is relatively trivial.
Hi,
I use SciLab for my everyday work. Sorry to know it will be retired. I do not know the software skills required. But if there is anything a common user can do, I think I can do a small piece of work.

Great. Are there any packages that you use? Might you be willing to do pre-release testing? Benson

Benson,
I use common packages: emacs/spyder/okular/firefox/krusader/kontact/latex/zotero/inkscape and installed zotero/WPS/Nutstore.
Of courst I can do some pre-release testing.

That would be great. It would be a good start to just test updates to the packages you use and provide karma:

The Scilab package[1] is not being retired (at least not that I'm aware of). The Fedora Scientific Spin/Lab image[2] is being retired.
So you can continue using Scilab :)
