Project Description

The goal is to first set-up hyprland on my own Aeon machine and after that creating an image in the OBS for re-use by others, preferably without Gnome in the installed packages.

SeaMonkey is the successor of the Mozilla Suite. The mail client allows connections over POPv3 and IMAPv4. In some cases one wants to leave the program running for longer periods of time, but once the mail client has password for a mail server it just stays connected. In case of "keep everything on server" profiles this means that the mail may stay accessible even when the machine is left unattended (which it often is). The purpose of the extension is to enable requesting the client to forget mail server passwords, so that the mail is no longer accessible without entering it again. http://www.seamonkey-project.org/

The goal is to use the work from the debug-early GCC branch to generate better debug information for LTO compiled objects, especially with regarding to language specifics like classes and templates. This has now been achieved and openSUSE Factory

Record two songs by the end of the week.

Are you interested in pairing? Are you wondering whether it is something that would help you and your team members in your current project? Would you like to try it out before you fully commit to such an extreme idea? Then this is your lucky day Sir/Madam! Within the Cloud Foundry project you are expected to pair pretty much every time you are working on something. In the BOSH OpenStack CPI team this isn't the exception, so I've been doing it for the past 15 months. I'd like to transfer some of that experience to you fellow SUSE colleague. We can discuss about the pros and cons that this agile methodology has. For example, there are many misconceptions on how to pair, for once, having the right hardware makes a huge difference. During Hack Week 16 you have the chance to test drive a dual-control workstation (see image) which I believe is one of the biggest differentiators to have a good experience when pairing full time.

We got a couple of GSoC projects around Jangouts this year: - https://code-master5.github.io/Aug-22-2017

The idea is to explore the technologies and the various components to realize some AI to predict pitfalls in source code which can potentially generate run-time misbehaviours. The potential area where this idea could have positive implications are:

I'd like a way to have a device on my desk which lights up to indicate that I have something I should be paying attention to. Initially, I'd like this to be for Office365 calendar events and GitHub mentions, but ideally it should support arbitrary messages. The plan is to assign specific colors (ideally "patterns" consisting of a sequence of colors and time) to specific message types. I have a handful of raspberry Pi Zeroes, a couple of OLEDs, a strand of individually-addressable RGB LEDs, a power supply, and some misc electronics (like the 3.3-5v logic level shifter necessary for the 5v LED strand). I'm thinking Python is probably the way to go for the software. I'm hoping OpenSUSE actually works on the Pi zero. :D If not, there's an ESP32 with a built-in display and a few Pi 3s laying around barely used, maybe one of them will work.

Project Description

GameYatra invites players on an adventurous journey through a myriad of games, each presenting a unique narrative and gameplay mechanics. The project aims to provide a fertile ground for learning and delving into game development. This is a personal project to venture into game development. This is going to be a continuous research and development project. Each level is a standalone game, offering a fresh narrative and a distinct gaming experience, all tied together by an overarching quest to reach the top level.

I'd like to add a 433MHz receiver transmitter module to my raspberry pi - I know there are some kits, but this will require some hardware poking and soldering and I'm looking forward to it. The goal will be to receive the signal of some remote temperature and humidity sensors, decode the signal - understand their data structure and display and log them accordingly.

Needing to learn git, I thought it would be a good time to clean up the code and create a git project for it.

I freshly bought a small and cheap laptop ASUS 200H based on Cherrytrail. My plan is to install openSUSE on it, and bring it along with my vacation in the following week :)

Mozilla's DeepSpeech project[1] is using TensorFlow and some paper from Baidu to make an open source speech to text system, based on deep learning (TensorFlow). The current project allow the training for own local datasets, but also there is a pre-trained model that can be used during the development. The goal of the project is:

There are various email synchronization programs like offlineimap or mbsync, which have some inherent limitations: - mbsync does not support IMAP IDLE

A few years ago I wrote the "worst 3D Printer". Basically, it takes a 3D model (VRML) and slices it to bitmaps, which can be arranged on paper and printed, then manually cut out and glued together. As you can imagine, just doing a small print could take 500 layers, so it could take a day to assemble (hence "worst"). [1] To be more useful, I want to rewrite the old code to properly support STL format. I attempted this once, but had trouble with the normals and getting the lines to connect correctly. So a rewrite would be good.

At present it is our practice to "vendor" all dependencies for a Golang package. This has the advantage that everything is in one nice package and self contained but it has the disadvantage that dependencies are hidden and therefore security issues may slip through the cracks. The idea is to investigate and create automation "go2rpm" that generates a spec file with the necessary "BuildRequires:" such that the dependencies can be broken into golang- packages and we get rid of the implicit dependency inclusion via "vendor". The potential problem is scale, with some golang applications having thousands of dependencies.

Project Description

Terraform libvirt provider has support for cloud-init and ignition VM configuration options. Last remaining popular option is for Combustion which is very useful when working with MicroOS systems.

Project Description

Store the OS root-tree on a container storage. The idea is to build a minimal golang tool capable to init a container storage to a custom location, store remote OCI images in there and mount them into a custom mountpoint. Next step is to craft a dracut based initrd including such a tool to mount the OS at boot. Finally, craft a disk with an EFI partition including the kernel, initrd and systemd-boot.

Project Description

Many Kubernetes' users are using K9s to manage their clusters from the terminal. To let them enjoy the same experience it would be nice to have an Epinio TUI (terminal ui application) to manage the Epinio resources.

Project Description

Currently, much of the async code in the frontend parts of Uyuni suffers from susceptibility to out-of-order request issues, race conditions, etc. There are ways we can sidestep them for specific cases, but since it's created more than one L3 at this point it would be nice to address it in a general way.

openSUSE Connect is almost forgotten tool used only for elections. It would be nice to update it, polish it a little bit, disable functions that nobody uses and fix those few that people would actually like to use.

Discourse is a really great opensource forum, written in Ruby on Rails and Ember.js. We should try to use it to complement mailing lists and IRC in internal communication, when we need persistent, searchable discussions (with helpful links to the outside world) for a broad and offtopicky subjects.

Porting training labs to Python. This includes re-implementing the host side BASH scripts (which handle VirtualBox and KVM related tasks) to Python. For full details on this please follow training-labs project: git://git.openstack.org/openstack/training-labs.git

There are a lot of issues in Crowbar due to the legacy of poor internals. This is blocking things quite a bit when it comes to improving Crowbar for adding new features. Let's fix it! So far, 39 pull requests opened!

DevOps is hot, and SUSE now is changing that we will not only provide OS and relative products but also online-application-like products e.g. docker application, so L3 service needs to improve as well.
Google has established their DevOps implementation - SRE system, and has maintained long time, I opened this project for researching if DevOps way could be applied on L3 service referring to Google's experience.

This is a UEFI only device where openSUSE does not boot, hanging after loading the kernel and the initramfs even disabling secure boot. The goal of this project is to learn as much as possible about UEFI, secure boot and finally install openSUSE on this device.

Project Description

As a noob in the deep learning world, I'd like to understand what is deep learning, to learn a new thing that better to find an interesting aspect, to me, face detection.

Project Description

Provide modules in Terraform registry for getting users started using Kubernetes on AWS.

Project Description

When learning a new language, it's useful to read books in your target language. The trouble is, it's difficult and time consuming to look up the meanings of new words you encounter while trying to read. The purpose of this project is to create an ebook reader which allows you to highlight individual words and translate them quickly (similar to how duolingo stories lets you click on words to explain their meaning).

Project Description

During HackWeek 2022, I built a small HTTPS Audio Streaming Server in Go and this week I want to containerize that application with Docker. I also want to try deploying that application to different places, perhaps GitHub or a Digital Ocean node.

Investigate how SUSE Manager will work (in place of Orthos) for managing Provo-based hardware in labs that needs to be shared across multiple organizations.

I'm currently using LastPass as password manager but it has several drawbacks: * closed-source

Hippocardus is a flashcard bot for Telegram. One of the most popular flashcard apps for the desktop and mobiles right now is Anki.

It looks like OTR will never be implemented for Empathy. But two years after Snowden end-to-end encryption is really a basic requirement for every secure chat program. A few weeks ago I read about a promising protocol called OMEMO which seems to overcome all shortcomings of OTR and GnuPG with respect to instant messaging. This would be a option for Empathy to finally support end-to-end encryption.

First part is to support automated builds on git pushes also with gitlab, similar to what we do already with github.com. This means OBS would get notificated in a save way to refetch sources and start build on each commit. Second part is to support automated branching when a pull request gets created. This allows CI similar to travis on pull requests.

What is the VFX Reference Platform? https://www.vfxplatform.com/FAQ/

Brewtarget is an open source brewing software, similar to the commercial product BeerSmith. For hackweek I'd like to investigate the capabilities of Brewtarget and perhaps add some features/improvements for my use case.

Zero-ish downtime deploy on da cheap!

This project aims to get a 0-ish downtime deployments (very easily achievable with Kubernetes) just using:

Apptainer job execution layer

jobber is small self contained perl script which does simple execution of serial jobs.

Project Description

Keeping a consolidated view of a project's progress is a non-trivial endeavor. There are far too many moving parts from its inception, such as planning, issue tracking, development, and testing. All the while one must keep track of some form of metrics to ensure that there's progress, and that the progress is happening in the right direction (or whatever is considered the right direction at the moment).

As a part of this hackweek, I'd like to take a look at Clojure and use it to solve as many problems as possible from the project euler.

djmount is a neat idea - see UPnP/AV resources in your directly in the file system. Unfortunately the code hasn't been maintained for ~10y, and - at least for me - seems to by plagued by various bugs causing crashes and what not. There's currently no official openSUSE package. This project aims to pick up the code, fix bugs, and make the tool actually useful again. The code itself seems to be in quite a good shape, so this should be doable.

• Setup Tensorflow on OpenSUSE 42.3
• Look for a way to package it

I use my Raspberry Pi 3B as a router. I have seen this crash: * [34502.095007] Internal error: Oops: 96000004 [#1] SMP

Project Description

The kdump plumbing is implemented as a dracut module. The original intention was to reuse the logic that dracut uses to deal with storage and network, but it turns out that kdump needs are often very different, so a lot of time is spent on avoiding dracut features that are undesirable.

Project Description

The goal of the project is to implement a collection of top-level crash commands in drgn tool. The commands should provide a top-level overview for anybody who opens a kernel core dump. I plan to select a similar set of commands as seen in crash-python tool.

Project Description

Goal for this Hackweek

My goal will be to write a small social network for PC and mobile devices using html, css, javascript, php and sql.

Or at least, test as many of them as possible.

make crowbar+openstack work on openSUSE Leap 42.2 part of this is setting up public CI. For that, we need to port mkcloud to work on Debian.

I'm using Conversations (XMPP+OMEMO) as an encrypted IM solution. Since a lot of groups organizing them self using WhatsApp, it's hard to stay away from it.

Let's make reposync faster

Every day,

This can be seen as a subproject of ethtool netlink interface but from the technical view it's independent. Every new piece of software is going to be buggy and with frequent changes and rewrites, new regressions are introduced. Automated selftests can help a lot but as ethtool deals with hardware devices, we do not want these tests to depend on a specific hardware. The netdevsim driver was created as a virtual device which (unlike e.g. dummy) cannot be used for actual network traffic but implements various configuration interfaces so that it can be used for their (automated) testing.

I own a 3D printer / Anet AM8 / and after 1,5y its time to upgrade the electronics, mainly the stock motherboard and get it ready for multi-color printing. Also the time has come where I would like to not only download 3D models from thingiverse but also create or customize the models for my usage. Plan is to:

GNOME Software supports distribution upgrade, that only requires a few clicks for upgrading your system. But it's not integrated into Leap. So this is that I plan to do this Hack Week.

Involved components

Project Description

Since we use different systems to report bugs (Bugzilla) and track their fixes (GitHub), we have a dedicated tool to keep our boards in sync and up-to-date between those two. The tool we use today is called finglonger and it's written in clojure which makes it rather difficult to maintain and expand.

fq is an open source command tool used for formatting and inspecting binary data. It has a modular architecture that allows for adding support for all sorts of different binary data (e.g. MP4, BZIP2, ELF, etc.) While working on a legacy booting issue for Harvester HCI, I learned about the format of the legacy MBR (master boot record). I started adding support for it in this PR, but I haven't finished it yet. I am interested in better understanding the ways computers boot up so I can better understand what goes wrong when people try to boot Harvester (or relatedly, openSUSE).

Project Description

The SINK project is a set of containers and tools for Samba in Kubernetes. The images and tooling for the project are designed for Fedora and RH systems. The ultimate goal of this project is to tweak the tooling for use with our build service, etc.

Project Description

Implement support for OVA as output for kiwi build in OBS using hooks and open-vmdk

The goal of my idea is using "Integration and Regression Testing Environment for strongSwan" https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/TestingEnvironment from upstreamer and build it over the SLES/openSUSE for regression tests of strongSwan package and other networking tools in L3 QA Maintenance.

Objective

The openSUSE plymouth theme presently lacks a nice graphical screen to inform

Scaleway is a newly opened Cloud based in France (for now) offering ARM based servers. Those are BareMetal SSD cloud servers. They offer a range of operating systems to pick from (Debian, Ubuntu, ArchLinux...) as well as 'application images' (Docker, ownCloud...) but no openSUSE image yet.

While in general everything still works, the current (patached/extended) planet installation behind planet.opensuse.org is a bit outdated and not maintained any more. The initial plan is to:

The support for Orange PI PC in mainline kernel has advanced a bit, so now it should be possible to build openSUSE image that has at least serial support with kernel 4.6 and usb support with 4.7. I will investigate this.

Add support to build snappy images in OBS. This means we need to parse snapcraft.yaml build description for dependencies, prepare data from remote resources and handle the build. ===Current State===

Plans of the Project

After some time I would like to move KF5 translation ahead again.

Rewrite the authboss Go library (authentication engine) for use with JWTs. Clean up existing code. Fix bugs etc. https://github.com/go-authboss/authboss

I currently use maildirproc for filtering Maildirs downloaded by offlineimap and like its highly flexible approach to filtering a lot (filters Python code). This works very well, except for one problem: after filtering, the next offlineimap run deletes the messages that where previously in Inbox on the mail server and uploads them to the folders they were sorted into. Depending on how many emails one gets, this is a colossal waste of bandwidth. It is technically possible to filter and move on the server side, as proven by imapfilter. I would like to add the same capability to maildirproc by implementing an IMAP client.

SLE Engineering have a large flatscreen in the shared space just outside of Thorsten Kukuk and Stefan Behlert's office It runs Windows

There's sadly not much time to enjoy Factorio with friends, so from economy perspective it makes sense not to have the server running when it's not used. The plan would be:

Try to family with MicroOS for ALP Virtualization

Project Description

I'm 2nd head of a non-profit association, our goals are to help musicians and kids that want to learn playing an instrument, but whose parents cannot afford buying instruments or paying for musical education.

Project Description

Kanidm is a identity management system (a store of accounts, groups and more) that supports authentication to opensuse, web sites, networks, and more. The project has a focus on respect of humans, correctness, simplicity and performance. In previous hackweeks we have implemented cryptographic authentication (webauthn), wasm based web UI, replication foundations and more.

The aim of this project is to make openSUSE/SUSE more known in Turkey, to atract students there to more participate in opensuse community: 1) update http://tr.opensuse.org/ which is a bit old, check the links etc.;

The current approach to having new hardware support and features in SLE kernels it to integrate changes to individual drivers from the mainline kernel back into the SLE kernel. The Linux Kernel Backports project (https://backports.wiki.kernel.org/) in comparison has an approach which consists in adding a shim layer between unmodified mainline drivers and older kernel interfaces. This project has its roots in wireless drivers. It currently supports only a handful of old ethernet adapters. The goal of this hackweek project is to integrate support for the Intel 1Gb pci-express ethernet driver e1000e into the Backports project. This particular driver was chosen because it is widely used and modern while not being exotic.

Unfortunately there is no UI designer or editor for YaST dialogs. All dialogs are hand crafted in Ruby code. The idea of this project is to provide some way how to create or edit the existing dialogs in a user friendly way, without touching any code.

I am currently using odpdown for presentations (tl;dr: it lets you write your slides in Markdown and generates Libreoffice slides from that and a Libreoffice slide master (such as a corporate identity template)). It is currently not available in OpenSUSE so it needs to be packaged and submitted to Factory. If somebody other than me wants to take this on, please ping me. There used to be a package in the author's home project on OBS which has since vanished. I think I've still got a checkout somewhere...

During the last year Askbot, a question and answer oriented internet tool, similar to stack overflow has been tested for internal usage. The testing went well and it was decided to use the tool in a larger scope.
