DESCRIPTION:In recent times we saw a number of improvements to various ima
 ge building tools. We have osbuild\, kiwi-ng\, mkosi\, lorax\, each one wi
 th different configuration philosophy and language\, build mechanism\, fea
 tures and possible outputs. It's fairly easy to do a superficial compariso
 n that looks at the configuration format and the list of features\, but it
 's much harder to get a good feeling for the the implementation choices an
 d details.\n\nIn this panel the developers from the different projects wil
 l discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the different projects\, make co
 mparisons\, and answer questions from the audience.\n\nSome important diff
 erences between the projects:\n- an API for developers (or the lack thereo
 f). Kiwi has it and it's considered important\, mkosi does not.\n- a human
  readable image description. Mkosi uses ini-files\, Kiwi uses xml/json/yam
 l\, OSBuild defines the distributions in code\, Lorax uses kickstart…\n-
  different output formats\, support for signing\, file systems.\n- unprivi
 leged operation with no device access (via systemd-repart)\n- support in b
 uild "orchestrators" like koji or OBS. Koji recently gained support for Ki
 wi and OSBuild\, but doesn't support mkosi.\n- support for reproducible bu
