As there is no progress around MIrrorPinky since 5 years now, let's say the project is dead and look for something different, which allows Mirror administrators to edit the settings of their own mirrors.

I have noticed that explaining HA cluster concepts to non technical people is not easy (my parents for example hehe). In order to improve that I would like to create a more visual project using raspberry pi-s.

Hackweek 21?

I'll spend half of hackweek preparing for the CISSP certification, in the other half I want to learn Ghidra (https://ghidra-sre.org/) and solve some reverse engineering quests with it

It's been a little while since I last needed to do some binary reverse engineering, so I want to up my game.

I just recently started a new project which is meant to be a wrapper for OBS's API. The library is written in Ruby.

In the past, some customers ever complained that OCFS2 file system performance went down when listing a big directory (e.g. include 400k files). According to my preliminary investigation, this performance problem is related to file system block allocation algorithm. Then, I want to look at the current mainstream file systems (e.g. EXT4, XFS, etc) block allocation algorithms in this hack week, compare and analysis these algorithms advantages/disadvantages.

Pi Security

A common challenge for OpenStack and K8S deployments is debugging the network when things go awry. The aim of DPHAT is to provide operators of cloud infrastructure with tooling that can analyze the environment and supply the following:

The primary arcade machine emulator is MAME, and it has a very specific format for romset compression. I have previously started a project call pyros that allows the creation and update of MAME romsets. The project consists of the following tools:

The salt-toaster (https://github.com/openSUSE/salt-toaster) is a tool created and developed by SUSE employees that we've been using for testing Salt since few years ago.

At SUSE we've implemented a module on Salt called ansiblegate which allows to run and manage your Ansible clusters using Salt.

Currently, way we distribute ssh keys within QAM on our testing infrustructure is a bit cumbersome - maybe we should try to (ab)use existing salt used by our internal infra team.

Currently, As QA, we design matrix for the test cases, then use matrix to generate test cases' name, then according the test cases' name to add related settings, then add those cases' name and settings to the openQA test suite. I hope, we can design matrix first, then other steps will be generated by automatically.

Metal³ is the idea to support a declarative bare metal cluster management for Kubernates by employing a simplified stand alone version of Ironic.

A filter to scramble writing actions to a stream randomly into multiple sequential actions, aiming to provide some protection against deep packet inspection, implemented in the form of an OpenSSL filter BIO.

INSTRUCTION: A remote reminder connected this server with WIFI module(Maybe not just a reminder ).

Since my mailbox has migrated to office365 mailbox a couple of weeks ago, I tried to optimize my tool chain to sync my mail and calendar and integrate to the gnome-shell (calendar, notification). So far I am comfortable with such a set and gonna use 2-3 hours in hackweek to summarize the practice of combining the following tools in written format:

It ain't rocket science, it ain't thrilling, it's just useful.

The idea is simple - I want to learn Python :) My previous knowledge about Python is small. Only few tutorials and some initial readings of below mentioned books to get an overview.

As a daily user of the Plasma desktop this Hackweek is a perfect opportunity to make my first contribution(s) to it! Feel free to join me as a fellow beginner or mentor!

I recently bought a 3D printer (ender 5) and would like to expand on my foundational knowledge on the topic:

Description

I want to get an openSUSE based image working on Samsung DEX:

1.Fetch useful/popular item from SMZDM 2.Build web server

Trimatik MC is an older heating control from Viessmann. It has no supported digital interface for remote access, but I found at least two ways to get access to sensor data like various temperatures and state of relay contacts. One way is to use the so called remote control the other use the clock timer. This project will use the latter way, because the hardware adaption is much easier and and all four timer channels could be controlled as well. Remote access will be done via an ESP32, which emulates the clock timer and gets/pushes data via WIFI.

The current kplex_monitor repo needs to be reorganized so that it can be installed from scratch on another PI using ansible

What is Openspace? Starting on Kickstarter and Indiegogo as Openbook Open Source Social Networking Service got recently renamed to Openspace (still reachable via openbook.social though). This network wants to protect its users privacy and make the world of SNS a better place.

Rationale:

The current GUI of FriCAS is ancient and difficult to use. I plan to improve that by using modern GUI frameworks, at least to make a working proof-of-concept demo to show this idea works.

In-depth understanding of how ptrace works; get the implementation mechanism of ptrace;

Minnowboard is the platform for UEFI development and supports UEFI capsule update since 0.99, and we are supposed to be able to test the feature with fwupd. However, there is no capsule file in fwupd.org or the official firmware download site. Besides, the Minnowboard firmware source in the current edk2/edk2-platforms git couldn't build due to the recent change of directories. My goal is to rebase the Minnowboard build system to the current git master and create a working up-to-date firmware. Signing the firmware properly would be a plus so that we can apply a private repo in fwupd.org for the development or QA testing.

Try to use apache-rex framework while testing httpd modules.

What I do: learn the virtualization knowledge, get familiar with various ways to migrate guest, know the user's normal scenarios and requirement. Goals: give an introduction or a summary to share, including text and graphics about virtualization and guest migration.

Rationale:

A lot of openSUSE bugs are filed with plenty details but without a specific assignee so often many days are lost between filing and a developer seeing the report.

I have build a table for our RPG sessions (DSA/Deadlands/Paranoia) which incorporates a large 24" LCD Display for showing maps during the sessions.

Instruction

As a Caasp developer, I need to learn GO language. While I have an opportunity to learn GO language during HeckWeek,
