I want to learn more about SDN and NFV, so i have started reading some book ASIN: B00WF85208 and prepared a list of things to get deeper into: - SDN

QA wants to set up a new QA Portal to get an new organized entry point for all Information that is QA related. The Hackweek Project is to start a discussion with the different QA groups, SLE QA, CSS QA and QAM to collect ideas and make a concrete plan.

"GNU Hyperbole is an open, efficient, programmable information management and hypertext system for GNU Emacs." (<https://www.gnu.org/software/hyperbole/&gt;) I used it quite some years ago. The last weeks it was a topic on the Emacs mailing list.

I had an application can't run on recent openSUSE for some time but it can run on openSUSE13.1 before. So I'd like to have a docker container (image) to run the application and learn some about docker container

Every packager encounters boring manual tasks every once in a while and these tasks can most probably be automated to some extent. During Hackweek I aim to try and identify such cases in various packagers' workflow and consider creating a tool that would make these tasks easier. Also, I would like to find out whether there is a demand for such tool. In that case, this Hackweek project will turn into a long-term task I plan to keep working on.

Read RoR docs and continue the TODO list from https://events.opensuse.org/conference/oSC16/program/proposal/894 + issues from https://github.com/ChrisBr/rails101/issues as a practice.

There is a running gag built into openQA called interactive mode. It goes like this: "if you need the interactive mode, it's broken". The reason: the so called interactive mode is a collection of hacks - in theory making it possible to update needles in a running test. But in fact it's a UI desaster that almost never works. So the goal of this hackweek project is to get rid of it - and instead build a real control from the webui into the backend allowing tests to be written on the fly including needle creation/updates. Easy as that.

reveal.js is a modern & lightweight HTML5/js-based presentation framework – much smarter than LibreOffice Impress can ever be (for a software developer). Richard Brown was so kind to create a proper LibreOffice presentation template for openSUSE and I would like to bring that design to reveal.js so next time I do a presentation I can happily use reveal.js while keeping up the openSUSE flag. :-)

I would like to spend the hackweek to study the Professional Scrum Master level I (PSM I), and then take the certification examination.

What is Qubes OS

Qubes OS is an operating system based on Linux with security in mind.

Goal: I will look during this project for existing tools and test suites Upstream, used by others distros (like 1) Fedora, 2) Arch-Linux, 3) Debian), and try to learn how they test, use their tool, projects.

Create a console application for a crossword puzzle generator that can be fed with a custom list of word+explanation pairs. It may be used by people to quickly familiarize with a specific topic (e.g. a knowledge area, new hires to the company ...) to at least understand the terminology and the abbreviations that are used. Or to just have some distraction and fun :-) I think it consists of three components:

I want to make ruby-lint usable. ruby-lint, as described by its author:

Implement a Little man computer in the Go programming language. Accepts LMC assembly code, compiles it and executes it.

As a starting point to learn and test OpenStack on relative low profile workstation/desktop, I found this project interesting and would like to setup it. :) https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/training-labs

bs-update simplifies package updates in BuildService, targeting mainly people who are both upstream and package maintainers.

Once again I am going to use my hackweek project to work on WSP, this time I want to concentrate on 4 areas that possible will help in getting this project accepted upstream (at least as some experimental feature) * A test client for doing basic searches (easy to target at windows but will work against the experimental WSP server too)

GOAL

I want to program a tool to assist building Kgraft-patches. klaire is a automated tool that generate kgraft patch from static patch.

• Complete hardware enablement on a prototype tablet that will be going to market soon as a 'pure Linux' tablet.
• Provide a custom image to the manufacturer for preinstallation of openSUSE on said tablet.

The i2c-i801 kernel driver (for SMBus controller on most x86 Intel systems) has a lot of pending upstream patches from various contributors. There are bug fixes, clean-ups and new features. Without proper reviewing and merging work, most of the effort is likely to be lost. So my project is to collect all contributions, review them, test as much as I can on the hardware I have, resolve all conflicts and submit a large single patch series upstream.

Description

For a few years now I have been using mutt for handling my private emails and Thunderbird for work related stuff, mainly because the former is less than stellar at handling mailing lists and the latter is at least bearable for mailing lists. These days my private email address is on a lot of mailing lists, too and this kind of arrangement may yet force me to use Thunderbird for my private email addresses.

Try to use Jenkins 2.0 CI environments to trigger jobs which running in openQA Topic 1:

Orcas are amazing animals. They are playful, intelligent, great swimmers, and very social. They also love to play with their food, hunting down their prey with advanced strategies - understanding where its prey hides, how it will try to escape, and how to overcome those tactics - and having a lot of fun doing so, before relentlessly tearing it apart, killing it, and eat it. Not necessarily in that order. Oh, and they have the right color scheme. This forces their prey to also improve and adapt more advanced strategies and tactics. In this arms race, both sides evolve and improve: the evolutionary pressure has made cephalopods highly intelligent, adaptable, and resilient. Unfortunately (for them), they are still very tasty. So we should exert more evolutionary pressure on individuals to help them stay alive as a species.

Continue my last project - Docker research in last hackweek with researching Kubernetes

In Beijing HA server room, we have a Huawei switch with a 10GB bandwith uplink FC port, a iSCSI HBA, a desktop computer, and some SFPs, I will build a 10GB bandwith iscsi server.

GFS2 and OCFS2 are 2 cluster filesystems in linux kernel. We also support GFS2, though most of our customers use OCFS2 as we recommend. Last hackweek, from

I will read about a book to understand linux kernel deeper. It is a heavy book, may not finish in this hackweek, but i will continue to finish it. The book name is "go deeper into linux kernel"

I heard that MVC is at the top of design pattern. I'm not sure it's true .

openvswitch is used by cloud infrastructure (e.g. OpenStack) and software defined networking stacks, often in conjunction with KVM and Xen compute resources. When creating workloads on KVM compute resources, orchestration services can specify the openvswitch interfaceid and port-profile of the workload's virtual interface(s). E.g. orchestration can create workload configuration containing

With all the changes in the qa_virtauto world, our local CI testing has become rather fragile. This project is all about stabilizing the CI testing and ensuring all builds are fully tested - without manual intervention. :)

Unfortunately there is no UI designer or editor for YaST dialogs. All dialogs are hand crafted in Ruby code. The idea of this project is to provide some way how to create or edit the existing dialogs in a user friendly way, without touching any code.

The support for Orange PI PC in mainline kernel has advanced a bit, so now it should be possible to build openSUSE image that has at least serial support with kernel 4.6 and usb support with 4.7. I will investigate this.

L3 bug reproduction often requires becoming the admin for a moment. I'd like to write down some nifty tricks I used to get certain “interesting” system configurations to work.

• Build zookeeper, mesos-master and mesos-slave on SLE12
• Setup a 3-nodes high-availability cluster (zookepper + mesos-master + mesos-slave run on each node)
