Just for Fun! Basically, it would be a keyboard using a straight telegraph key for taping Morse Code.

This project is about fixing this known Jangouts issue that is reported over and over, since many user experiencing problem with the outgoing WebRTC traffic or with camera authorization can "lurk" what happens in the room without being noticed. Copy&Paste from the last comment there: It's true there is a lot of room for improvements to raise the awareness about "lurkers". For example, we could compare the number of people subscribed to your stream and the number of publishers. If numbers do not match, there is somebody listening but not being displayed. That's something we could show in the UI.

This was planned for previous hackweek (hw16-1) => Automated deployment of virtualization hosts and build up of virtual machines for xen+kvm+related tool testing.

ESP8266 Tinkering

The ESP8266 is an interesting little device that has been around for a while. It has the potential to support some interesting IoT applications. There is Ardunio core support for this device <https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino> and a rich set of libraries to help developers get started.

Build a paper folding machine capable of folding Skill Shot. * Print run is 2500 copies

Create a site where users can post their desired epitaph * You can post your desired/aspirational epitaph and keep it updated

It looks like OTR will never be implemented for Empathy. But two years after Snowden end-to-end encryption is really a basic requirement for every secure chat program. A few weeks ago I read about a promising protocol called OMEMO which seems to overcome all shortcomings of OTR and GnuPG with respect to instant messaging. This would be a option for Empathy to finally support end-to-end encryption.

make crowbar+openstack work on openSUSE Leap 42.2 part of this is setting up public CI. For that, we need to port mkcloud to work on Debian.

Since eBPF was introduced into linux kernel, the eBPF verifier keeps the eBPF programs from any wrong-doing. I would like to look into the verifier and see if it's possible to extend the check to avoid reading any sensitive data in the memory.

Python offers some useful libraries for this topic, I already know numpy and openCV, I want to try for example scikit-image. As a concrete goal, I want to try deconvolution with variable PSF - create lens profile and use this profile to improve sharpness and chromatic aberration.

It seems that systemd-nspawn, together with machinectl can use qcow2 images directly. This means I could use the images genereted by kiwi to start containers (for development and for running the tests).

There is a long-standing problem that mirrorbrain on download.opensuse.org does not do reasonable redirection when a user comes by with an ipv6 address... In my case for example, mirrorbrain claim I'm coming from an unknown country. It's a small country, ok, but by far not unknown (Switzerland)

Ever left a restaurant wanting to write a review, but thinking it wasn't worth the trouble to tap out all those words on your phone -- you just want to give the place your n stars and provide a few words of praise or condemnation? If only you could press a button to generate a plausible review. If this project happens, you will. We'll use the Yelp API to grab as many reviews of certain types of restaurants as the terms of service allow (I assume "Use any robot, spider, site search/retrieval application, or other automated device, process or means to access, retrieve, scrape, or index any portion of the Site or any Site Content;" doesn't apply to API users -- otherwise it wouldn't be much of an API).

I want to get started with developing apps for phones and tablets. It is a very general idea, rather open ended. To have tangible results, I want to make a trivial app and publish it in the official Google Play store: Just Roll One Die.

This is more like a learning project for me as a new hire, so please do not expect too much, :-) Compare difference of maintain flow for Libvirt and QEMU between SLE and HPE Linux

Lay out a mock version of an existing SUSE R&D process in JIRA. The process should have a reasonable amount of complexity, like

In ubuntu, you can install grub-ipxe, which adds an ipxe entry to the grub menu. This allows you to easily pxe boot on machines that may not natively support it. You can also use it along with grub2-reboot to remotely re-image a machine. The project has been started here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:blarson:grub-ipxe It needs to be tested, and polished before trying to include it into opensuse.

Create a JUnit test suite for Firefox browser and integrate the tests into SLEnkins.
