I currently have a lot of personal infrastructure that is in need of some tender loving care and transactionalisation https://rootco.de is running on a Leap 42.3 Hetzner box. I'd like to replace this with something transactional (either Kubic, Leap 15 or Tumbleweed transactional server)

• Check packages that I maintain or are in devel projects that where I am maintainer and update them.
• Check bugzilla for issues filled for said packages

Update: Ruqola ('zypper in ruqola') is now in Tumbleweed and Leap 15.2! For Hack Week 19 (Feb 2020) main goal is to test, polish packaging, potentially do fixes and select a snapshot to submit to openSUSE Tumbleweed. Upstream made one release but it was not optimal, development pace has sped up a lot lately and the client has become more stable and usable.

Following the work started in the last hackweek, Improve OBS service scripts, I will try to migrate current service script for workers to systemd unit, and at the same time, try to get rid of the sysv code.

Try to prototype an interactive dashboard for parts of the data available on SMELT.

Background

motivation

As an openQA contributor I could learn from openSUSE release managers how the overall process can be improved.

The goal is to run the Elastic Inference Demo managed by kubernetes on a Raspberry Pi4 Cluster with openSUSE Kubic. * The openSUSE Kubic image should configure itself correct at the first boot with ignition.

This hackweek I'll be working on Kanidm, an IDM system written in Rust for modern systems authentication. The github repo has a detailed "getting started" on the readme. Kanidm Github

Project here: https://confluence.suse.com/display/AAI/HackWeek19 Will keep working out of HackWeek as "best effort" personal project to make it evolve and keep learning.

There are multiple reasons for this project. First, I want to re-cap my ruby programming knowledge. Secondly, this course is available on pluralsight. This is project for 1-day, where I plan to continue and create some project and dive a little bit deeper into it. Here is the url for anyone interested: https://app.pluralsight.com/library/courses/code-school-rails-for-zombies/table-of-contents

Goal: I'd like to have the release process defined in markdown/git and use it as a source for process creation in redmine.

You can encrypt your servers root filesystem, but need to provide a password during the boot process in order to "unlock" and start the system. This is easy if you have physical access to the server by entering it via keyboard. But if you do not have physical access it's not that easy. This project is about to set up a server that might be able to have an encryted root filesystem which can be "unlocked" by entering the password via ssh.

The ESP8266 is a low-cost WI-Fi microchip with full TCP/IP stack and microcontroller capability. I want to explore the features and (in case of success) attach a BME280 to get temperature, humidity and barometric pressure information streamed over WI-Fi. As the price of both components is just around 10 EUR, this would be a nice add-on for my weather station at home...

Create a gnome-shell extension inspired from an Android app floating toolbox. floating toolbox

I want to create an exporter for a X instagram profiile using the Instagram API. The exporter should export some metrics on my user and then I can build perhaps some useful dashboard

I'm building a web-site for my drawing/painting things. This hackweek project I want to do more frontend related stuff like javascript/clojurescript and html for improving the layout and so on of the page.

qemu-devel.opensuse.org is a port forwarder to * 2 ARM Server

Research on BI tools to crawl eg. SCC data. This is an internal project, tracked at SUSE Confluence.

Acronyms are fun. Everyone at SUSE loves them. Just sometimes… you might not know what one stands for.

For a very long time, I have been planning to play with Crystal as possible substitute/complement for Ruby. With that goal, I have isolated a very small subset of the Ruby project I know the best (yast-storage-ng) and I want to migrate that subset to Crystal to get a general feeling about the language. See the repository with the experiment already in progress. There is no evil plan to migrate YaST to Crystal. This is just done in the Hack Week spirit of "what if". But if more people join maybe we could get this to an state in which some benchmarks can be executed to check what's the real gain in speed and memory consumption using Crystal instead of Ruby (note: speed and memory are not the only goals of the migration).

We have ActiveJob instrumentation in the OBS code base and a couple of panels in our grafana. Move this upstream to influxdb-rails. - OBS code

Start awesome/people-management and properly announce the awesome setup.

Move our agile team check, with some more elaborate assessment, online to office365

This hack week project is an Unity3D app, available in Android, IOS and HTML5 platforms. The idea is to welcome new joiners inviting them to play this game. The game will have questions about SUSE, the new joiners will need to ask other SUSE employees for the correct answer, socializing and learning SUSE culture at the same time. When they win the game an e-mail will be sent to a concrete e-mail address (it might be someone from facilities) and they will receive a small gift as Welcome Pack. For instance, they could receive the small chameleon or a t-shirt.
