Currently only those disk blocks are checked that are allocated by the filesystem and in use. To check for read errors on unallocated blocks can be beneficial to identify hardware that is going to fail in the near future. As my first project in BtrFS, I'll also learn some development skill on BtrFS.

OpenStack uses Puppet to setup the whole CI (see http://ci.openstack.org/). Adjust the puppet manifests to be able to deploy the manifests on openSUSE and learn more about the setup.

Imagine you are sitting in the subway and suddenly the woman of your dreams sits down next to you. You are thinking hard about what to say to her, but since you are too shy she gets out three stops later and you never see her again. What if you both would have had an application running on your phones, to help you come over that awkward situation of just saying "Hi!"? How does it work?

py2pack (https://github.com/saschpe/py2pack) is used to create rpm packages from python modules. Would be great if py2pack can also update an existing package (download new version, update spec file, check requirements, ...)

My last hackweek project was "melbot", a server-side automated system for running performance tests. This went from being a project to something the performance team now uses heavily. The volume of data it now produces is excessive and problems are easily missed. It's a short hackweek for me due to being on holiday for two of the days but there are three objectives to the hackweek project 1. Rename melbot to marvin. The melbot name was a joke that has outlived its usefulness

It happens from time to time that my system is less responsible. It is usually caused by extensive disk operations, e.g. searching disk for something, moving a lot of data. A solution would be to run these problematic tasks with ionice. But I think that desktop user should not need to take care of this. Also some of the operations are even caused by system tools and normal user has problems to affect it. I wonder if we could somehow improve the desktop setting or it it would even need some hacks into the scheduler. I have just heard that this should be fined in the last kernels. But I also heard that it still does not work well, for example when copying from/to USB memory stick.

"grub2-once" allows to print a numbered list of available targets using --list option. It allows to select the boot target using the number. It would be great to add this functionality to the "grub2-set-default" command as well.
