During regular L3 work I often don't find enough time to work on the command line disk partitioner parted which I maintain.

media.ccc.de currently hosts about 5TB of presentation recordings. The main mirrors send about 5TB of videos each in a single month. Several OpenSource conferences are hosted on media, like the last two openSUSE conference, or the "All Systems Go!" conference. What started as a web frontend for ftp.ccc.de in 2007 has become a complex project that integrates deeply into the tooling used by the VOC team.

While there are plenty of benchmarks that compare different IO multiplexing techniques such as epoll vs poll/select, there's really nothing out there that particularly measures epoll system call latencies under different scenarios. Design and implement a series of performance benchmarks for this call under the 'perf bench' framework.

I intend to create opensuse docker images ready for mining cryptocurrencies (cpu based algorithms like cryptonight as a first try), and if time permits, I will also try to deploy the containers using kubernetes.

Improve the progress made with the GfxTablet last year https://github.com/Devp00l/GfxTablet / https://hackweek.suse.com/16/projects/turn-an-android-tablet-into-a-drawing-tablet.

PVH domains are a new guest type supported by Xen being as lightweight as possible (e.g. no emulation of legacy devices via qemu) while taking advantage of the hardware virtualization features of the x86 processor.

Once upon a time there was a bot

I'd like to learn Docker and Kubernetes. I'd also like to learn about AWS so I'll use that platform using the free tier account.

I have a small tool called compare_pkglist.py[1] which comparing packages between two build service project and it able to show the diff of package, this tool helps me to understand how many package I've missed and missing updates, it needs an improvement of the output format; show new package only; always check linkinfo; etc.

I want to watch birds at the birdfeeder on my balcony.

In our team, we currently manually deploy our Terraform code (namely, the SUSE Registry at registry.suse.com) from our own PCs. This is error prone, as it would be very easy to override something by mistake. I want to create the appropriate .gitlab-ci.yml file that will:

My friends have been using a supybot bot to help organizing weekly football matches. Over the years, there was demand for moving it to Telegram and supybot-telegram-bridge was born, allowing using the IRC bot in Telegram.

An initial prototype from the last hackweek can be found on YouTube

Back in the day, I enjoyed coding on 8 bit machines, mostly MSX. There is now a Kickstarted project to create a successor machine with some new features: hardware sprites, hardware scrolling, better sound, integrated SD/MMC IO and an ESP8266 for networking.

Employ apache-rex instead.
