Updated 26 days ago. No love. 1 follower. Has no hacker: grab it!

Project Description

i want to build a hexchat plugin, so i can run a omemo-secured conversation over irc with someone who also has an omemo implementation

OMEMO is the cryptographic protocol which secured messaging on signal at least at one point and also is used on XMPP.

ideally i want to have a working prototype at the end of the week where to people can use the plugin to talk encrypted over IRC.

Goal for this Hackweek

Building a hexchat plugin (https://hexchat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html) based on python-omemo (https://github.com/omemo/python-omemo) so people can talk with a current cryptographic protocol secure over IRC.

after a successfull prototype i would like to look how to package it, but first we need to have a working version :)

      This is not really possible, as IRC does not support that long messages and this would then enforce parsing of multilines, which makes this too complicated for a fun project...

    Improvements to osc (especially with regards to the Git workflow) by mcepl

    Description

    There is plenty of hacking on osc, where we could spent some fun time. I would like to see a solution for https://github.com/openSUSE/osc/issues/2006 (which is sufficiently non-serious, that it could be part of HackWeek project).

    Bring to Cockpit + System Roles capabilities from YAST by miguelpc

    Bring to Cockpit + System Roles features from YAST

    Cockpit and System Roles have been added to SLES 16 There are several capabilities in YAST that are not yet present in Cockpit and System Roles We will follow the principle of "automate first, UI later" being System Roles the automation component and Cockpit the UI one.

    Goals

    The idea is to implement service configuration in System Roles and then add an UI to manage these in Cockpit. For some capabilities it will be required to have an specific Cockpit Module as they will interact with a reasource already configured.

    Resources

    A plan on capabilities missing and suggested implementation is available here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZhX-Ip9MKJNeKSYV3bSZG4Qc5giuY7XSV0U61Ecu9lo/edit

    Improve/rework household chore tracker `chorazon` by gniebler

    Description

    I wrote a household chore tracker named chorazon, which is meant to be deployed as a web application in the household's local network.

    It features the ability to set up different (so far only weekly) schedules per task and per person, where tasks may span several days.

    There are "tokens", which can be collected by users. Tasks can (and usually will) have rewards configured where they yield a certain amount of tokens. The idea is that they can later be redeemed for (surprise) gifts, but this is not implemented yet. (So right now one needs to edit the DB manually to subtract tokens when they're redeemed.)

    Days are not rolled over automatically, to allow for task completion control.

    We used it in my household for several months, with mixed success. There are many limitations in the system that would warrant a revisit.

    It's written using the Pyramid Python framework with URL traversal, ZODB as the data store and Web Components for the frontend.

    Goals

    • Add admin screens for users, tasks and schedules
    • Add models, pages etc. to allow redeeming tokens for gifts/surprises
    • …?

    Goal for this Hackweek

    • Put M2Crypto into better shape (most issues closed, all pull requests processed)
    • More fun to learn jujutsu
    • Play more with Gemini, how much it help (or not).
    • Perhaps, also (just slightly related), help to fix vis to work with LuaJIT, particularly to make vis-lspc working.
