Taskotop is a tool to check what taskomatic is currently doing on a SUSE Manager server: it's a command line python tool. The core of the tool is to get some info about jobs that taskomatic is running with a fixed time cycle running some queries and showing results to the shell.

Build a paper folding machine capable of folding Skill Shot.

Implement a basic file search for a given OBS project. An example of basic functionality can already be found for Ubuntu or Debian. The goal is to implement,

After an internal call for help to take over software.opensuse.org deployment, I spend some time studying the code in order to find out what would it mean to take it over.

Idea is to have SUSE system with OpenZFS as root FS.

This hackweek I will focus on improving my drawing/painting skills.

A normal Xen server today has many single points of failure. Those can be reduced by disaggregating Dom0 into multiple domains (xenstore, driver domains, admin domain). Following this path to it's logical end will lead to a setup where the running domUs won't be depending on Dom0 any more, so Dom0 itself can be made restartable.

Last Hackweek I created a rescue system that is composed of a SUSE Linux kernel in an NSS (Named Saved System) and an xip2fs file system in a DCSS (Dis-Continguous Save Segment). This allows any Linux guest on a z/VM system to say "#cp ipl rescue" and have a fully functional SUSE Linux Enterprise system come up to allow them to fix what ever is wrong with the guest.

Discovery the latest SUSE Manager, what is missing there from user and system point of view to be use as Orthos reservation system

Updates and improvements to the android Skill Shot app.

Right now portusctl is a tool which is embedded into the Portus source code. This was done out of simplicity and with the hope that we would share as much code as possible with Portus itself. However:

Aim of this project is to create scenarios for manual deployment using limited feature set of mkcloud. Useful for situations when full mkcloud deployment is broken. It would help qam-cloud team a big time. We can reuse the result later in automation.

I would like to dedicate my time to the improvement of the Czech localization of KF5.

Check if it is possible to create a python application to aid autofocus micro adjustment on a DSLR. There are some commercial applications that are capable of that, such as Reikan FoCal (https://www.reikanfocal.com).

Finglonger is an internal tool used by the SUSE Manager team intended to make the life of the Round Robin Bug Guy easier. It was originally written by @fkobzik in Clojure.

Description

The copy&past situation is broken, we all know that. And nothing will fix this.

Project Description

a widget to list events from a JSON backend. the widget may be included by any website to share community events.

Improving the openSUSE Websites

Create an OpenVPN gateway based on SLES 12 JeOS

The following improvements for kanku are planned:

Let's containerize SUSE Manager! This will open up different (and interesting) scenarios:

Learn tinycc (tcc). Fix bugs, write features, etc. Hack on tcc.

Inspired by a conference talk I've attended a while ago (and my own struggles when trying to create something pretty basic just recently) I want to learn more about SVGs in general and their powers for modern web development in particular.

There are various home assistant solutions out there but all of them transfer your voice to some server for processing. This is a no-go for sane people although the technology is interesting and could be useful. There are various open source tools out there to achieve the same result but there is no turn key open source self hosted solution. The goal of this project is to implement a way to have a home assistant running locally - ideally with one command.

Project Description

Kanidm is a modern, fast, opensource IDM aiming to be an alternative to projects like 389-ds, freeipa, samba 4 and others. Inspired by many identity as a services, many features of this project aim to advance the state of what is possible with opensource security and IDM today.

Lua is used as an embedded programming language or an extension language in many system and applications, I want know more about it.

Description

Given the number of bugs frequently discovered in the Samba code caused by memory issues, it makes sense to re-write the smbd service purely in Rust code. Meanwhile, it would be wise to abandon backwards compatibility here with insecure protocol versions, and simply implement the SMB3 spec.

Ionic + AngularJS + Node.js (http://ionicframework.com/)

As a counter-program to the daily usage of dynamic languages, I want to use this Hackweek to explore the web stack provided by very good static typed languages:

The osc16 videos were released on http://media.ccc.de - a web frontend for video presentations from conferences.

Create a belt buckle with integrated cribbage board.

1. currently when you navigate to Test Results page - it will load everything before show you the page. I plan to change this model into "load on demand" approach
2. Test Details page currently show you thumbnails for all modules. Want to add expand/collapse functionality for thumbnails - by default you will not see them for passed modules. But you will have ability to expand them. Also I will add "Expand All"/"Collapse All"

Sorbet is a gradual type checker for Ruby.

Well, we often stuck in YaST team with knowledge what users really use and how much. But we have yast logs in many bug reports. And from those logs we can see which modules users use the most. So goal of this project is to write script that analyze given tarballs with logs and print result about usage of yast clients.

Project Description

Based on SQLite3.

Write a simple command line tool for getting the open pull request from github and put it into a trello card. The tool should periodically update a list of pull request. In addition it would be great to have a connection between the trello card and github pull request.

In order to have complete cloud experience on Power platform it needs some missing pieces to be available: * SLEShammer image (SLE11-> SLE12)

Task: - Learn Twopence structure

I want to play with Cassandra. The idea is to use Cassandra as the backend of a Job Reporting System.

openQA has a well earned reputation as a 'full system' testing tool, able to test a system end-to-end from the operating system to it's applications on a number of different platforms and architectures, including VM's & Bare Metal.

Matrix.org is a project to create a protocol and server implementation to replace IRC.

When doing the backport, I sometimes spend some time to check if the commit comes from a patch series and list all commits of a patch series. So I'd like to create a tool for doing this quickly.

Milkytracker is a free software multi-platform music tracker for composing music in the MOD and XM module file formats.

Although CNCF projects are almost exclusively related to Linux containers, some ideas, like wrapping all the services into network proxies to create a distributed data-plane and enable true observability, could perhaps be explored for some kind of backport in complex legacy distributed systems, like... say... S4/HANA?!

Project Description

Goal for this Hackweek:

Description

got some esp32 board and multiple small periphericals since a while at home, its time to play with them and learn a bit more about this stuff. Connect them to Home assistant.

Description

Make an interactive wizard that helps to go through configurations of mutt / mbsync / msmtp / notmuch / mailcap / links etc.

I am a beginner: I have read 1½ books on Haskell. I want to practice.

By analysing a VNC session, we can create a draft of an openQA testcase (detecting keystroke, mouse click and generating fullscreen needles).

Over the last year or so I have developed an IRC bot to work with the chat service of twitch.tv, providing user engagement functionality.

Just an excuse to learn more about antlr and parsing in general.

I planned to write a GUI for mokutil since I started the project. I guess now it's time to do that.

The Goal is...

Future of tools supporting editors in dealing with particular languages is in my opinion in the LSP protocol. Therefore I look with a bit of worry on the fact that there is no good LSP server based on the top of rope. python-language-server uses it a bit internally, the Microsoft Language Server for Python is in C#, so it is completely something different.

Project Description

I need to learn how queueing disciplines work. I need to learn how to use the /usr/sbin/tc tool to change traffic control settings. This is a do-it-yourself project. I do not offer nor require assistance.

Project Description

Especially when using multiple extensions, selecting release notes of a specific extension is not easy (scrolling the tab). Put it to a pop-up (like help) while not blocking the package installation.

kGraft allows to patch kernel at runtime. It implements a consistency model that allows to modify semantic of functions. e.g. fix lock order. For this, we need to find a safe place when a process/thread might start using the new code.

I will look into libmicro and learn some skill to analyse the results. And then I'll apply the function to IO test and so on.

Want to build a server which can help us to manage some resource. The functions contain : Reserve, Lock, Release, Timer, Change,Add,Cancel,Delete etc.

We have a known defect exists in Staging Project process, according to the staging project design(in-ring/non-ring), the requests of a application stack can be dispatched to letter staging and adi staging both, in case the request staged in adi staging relies the request staged in letter staging which may causes sometimes the request in adi staging will not be checked-in at the same round, this leads that application stack have different version in TW and those package had request left in adi staging may does not work well as version unmatched to other library. We see this issue happened on Qt5 stack; KDE Applications, etc. For example: a Qt5 stack update, libqt5-qtbase will be staged in a letter staging however libqt5-qtwebview will be staged in a adi staging, once libqt5-qtbase be accepted that libqt5-qtwebview won't be accept in the same round due to it can not be built before libqt5-qtbase merged to Factory but after - 2-phase update. Therefore we need a way to handle those cases to reduce the gap between Letter staging and ADI staging.

Many of the Uyuni / SUSE Manager web UIs are still based on the no longer maintained Struts framework (version 1.2!) and implemented as JSP pages, while we added newer features based on the Spark framework and React. For me there is a vision of using only one technology stack (especially just one web framework, frontend framework and template engine) eventually, so it is about time to get rid of the old stack. While this is surely a huge effort, why not start with a new login page and then go from there rewriting other pages one by one?

Description

I would like to measure how various services and their software updates in openSUSE TW impact the power consumption of a PC
