This project is a POC to create an iSCSI driver for the Ceph backend for Cinder. There are a few use cases that would make it nice to be able to attach a ceph volume as an iSCSI target.

Currently there is support for TAP being added to OpenQA::Parser::Format

What if Salt Minions no longer need to specify the IP or DNS address for the Master? Or even better: Master(s) can call minions. Of course, for the beginning, we would assume the network is trusted. But we should be able to add further security checks (keypairs etc).

Employ apache-rex instead.

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.

Let's use the Hackweek to improve Ruby, the programming language I use every day. It is while using a language when you can realised that things that need/can to be improved, so there are many things that only Ruby developers can raise up. Also, getting involved in the development of Ruby will help to get a better understanding of how it works. So I will take my ideas/concerns to the Ruby community and implement some of the them in the code of the Ruby core.

SUSE Manager can do some virtual machines management, but needs a lot to be complete. This project is about investigating more on that topic.

Salt – The most intelligent, powerful and flexible open source software for remote execution, configuration automation, cloud control and event-driven orchestration

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.

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:

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

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.

Running openATTIC and DeepSea on Multiple Distributions

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.

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

Within SUSE we are using various systems for different tasks. E.g. GitHub and GitLab as DVCS, Jenkins for building or testing, OBS for building… and the list continues. Some of those systems can be interconnected in some way. But not every system can do that, especially if you are behind a corporate firewall and some (I'm looking at you GitHub) have a quota. So wouldn't it be nice to have something like a Big SUSE event bus, where every event we'd be interested in could be queried or subscribed to?

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.

Once upon a time there was a bot

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.

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.

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.

Let's dust off our Amigas, hook up our mice and joysticks, and see what elegant software and hardware could do back in the 80s and 90s!

There are plenty of old games that were compiled for Linux - particularly in Loki times around 2000.

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.

The DriConf-Project inside of MESA has seen its latest update in 2006 and is implemented with GTK+ 2. https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/DriConf/

Crystal [1] is a new language with a syntax heavily inspired by Ruby, but with statically type check and compiled! Its motto is "Fast as C, slick as Ruby", so good reason to start looking at it.

Currently I am using openSUSE Leap 42.2 as base system on the laptop where I do my daily work (Dell Latitude E7470). As a YaST developer my system is a bit broken (as you may guess) and updates are not possible. So it is time to start from scratch. The idea is to adopt some user friendly system for security copies, migrate to Tumbleweed, make extensible usage of virtual machines and try to stay the base system as clean as possible.

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

I will implement the ReaR upstream issue https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/1399

Problem statement

Once a kernel is built, a developer/janitor may want to boot the kernel for various reasons, such as performing simple boot test or running tests and workloads from user space or simply playing around in a shell. However, an easy to use and a descriptive tool to perform those tasks doesn't exist to our knowledge.
