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.

During the last year Askbot, a question and answer oriented internet tool, similar to stack overflow has been tested for internal usage.

Following a FOSDEM presentation on Angr for binary analysis, I started packaging it in OBS.

Capyboard is an ESP32 development board built to accept individual custom-made modules. The board is created primarily for use in education, where you want to focus on embedded programming instead of spending time with connecting cables and parts on a breadboard, as you would with Arduino and other such devices. The board is not limited only to education and it can be used to build, for instance, a very powerful internal meteo-station and so on.

I am trying to create a smart-lighting project with a Raspberry Pi Pico that reacts to a movie's visuals and audio that involves combining two distinct functions:

Tahoe-LAFS is an open-source decentralized cloud storage system. It distributes your data across multiple servers. Even if some of the servers fail or are taken over by an attacker, the entire file store continues to function correctly, preserving your privacy and security.

With all the changes in the qa_virtauto world, our local CI testing has become rather fragile. This project is all about stabilizing the CI testing and ensuring all builds are fully tested - without manual intervention. :)

Small non profit organisations or activist groups need a Web presence that is easy to maintain by several authors. When using a CMS they do not have the resources to secure the CMS from the various possible attacs most CMSes are notorious for. Defacement or placing malicious content can damage the reputation of such non profit organisations.

Develop a proof of concept frontend based on React and Material-UI as an alternative to the JSP/Struts based frontend currently available.

...because openQA isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Features I'd like to implement:

We're always struggling at home with the lunches and dinners. Most of the time we realize that by the end of the week that our diet has diverged from what WHO and many other organizations suggest. My idea is to create a scalable database of meals, a web interface and some logic that generates a balanced meal plan for a 5-day or 7-day week.

As a proud SUSE Engineer, I consider openSUSE is the best open-source distro out there just like all of us.

In previous Hackweeks, we've gone to warp speed in our virtualization CI testing through:

A utility to make beautifully printed maps from OpenStreetMap data.

Basically $topic, as of the latest release of ceph, we have some not so trivial support to pull off something like this at least for metadata, need to see if data sync is also permitted, and then probably hook it to sync to AWS itself

port notmuch/muchsync to android, with some java ui on top

There are customer use cases where sharing information via internet or uploading data somewhere is not acceptable for security reasons: this avoid the usage of some tool like the most famous Google Analytics, and prevent developers from understanding how the web application is used by the customers. I don't want to reinvent the wheel and re-implement a copy of Google Analytics, but getting inspired from it, the goal is to reuse information that we already have to extrapolate an analysis of the WebApp customer usage.

Very often people find themselves wanting to store secrets in a way that either they can recover even if (for instance) their house burns down, or allow friends and family to recover if they pass away. Existing solutions to this problem are:

Current Situation [bsc#1201271]

Description

The compressed image of e.g. SLE Micro 6.0 is ~ 900Mb. ** The overall goal of this project is to make a smaller footprint (in terms of image size) flavor of the image. This is to be achieved by limiting the target use-case to simple RPi (4, 400, Pi Zero 2) server for home IoT. **

Project Description

Description

The project aims to explore how to design effective system messages and prompts tailored for AI-driven code refactoring tasks. By refining these prompts, we can guide AI models to better understand code structure, identify improvement opportunities, and execute refactorings with minimal manual intervention. The project will delve into creating system messages that balance technical detail with flexibility, enabling AI to perform refactorings that maintain code functionality while improving readability, efficiency, and maintainability.

This Hackweek I would like to finish enhancing of the mysql-packaging git repository [1]. This improvement mainly consists of scripts for a kind of simple continuous integration and git hooks to enforce a few policies for our project. If there is a time I will also take a look at the mysql package itself and check if there is anything to improve.

I heard that MVC is at the top of design pattern. I'm not sure it's true .

Adding some API documentation for Crowbar, which is still missing. There are some API comments along with the Rails controller methods, but some of them are outdated.

I want to understand the basics and architecture of KMS / DRM drivers in the kernel (also in mesa, but this project is more about the kernel-side). I will read docs and attempt to implement a virtual kernel-mode-setting driver (vkms) as described in Documentation/gpu/todo. This would be a KMS driver for a fake modesetting graphics device, just using normal system memory. This can be useful for learning, but judging from dri-developer discussions, also useful for testing hotplug races, plane blending and finding other KMS/DRI infrastructure bugs.

I will implement the ReaR upstream issue https://github.com/rear/rear/issues/1399

The subject says it. Learning about DHT seems like a fun project.

To ease debugging cgroup relates issues this suggests to:

I want to be able to create some 3D printing models for 3D printers. So starting to search for a good introduction and try it out...

The project is about getting more familiar technically with the openQA code and checking for improvement options in dependence of the expected impact and effort.

Description

Need to find out what the impact is for loosing quorum and recovery from this situation in case of K3s / RKE2 and Harvester.

There are so many bugs which is related to mod_nss like bnc#863518 or bnc#897712.

I would like to have a programming language that has the performance characteristics of C, but integrates some programming language features that I like from other languages. My first goal would be to start with a language that is very limited in scope and compiles directly to C, and step by step add to it.

OBS source services can currenlty run on the developer workstation and some of them also on the OBS server side.

There are numerous testing tools for the GFX stack available - the oldes being the xtest suite. At the same time, we are still lacking automated test environments for the funktionalities of DRM, Mesa and X. Ideally the tests should be performed automatically and unattended and the results should be compared to previous runs to detect regressions.

Research what tools exist to date and how they can be employed.

Some input is still needed about the keybindings, which ones to use.

meson[0], a replacement to autotools, is very popular nowadays. It's a lot faster than autotools as far as what I hear and see. Besides lots of GNOME projects has been ported to meson. As one of the maintainers of GNOME Logs[1], I need learn meson and try to port Logs to meson for faster building.

During regular L3 work I often don't find enough time to work on the command line disk partitioner parted which I maintain.

Setup a SUMA Server in a VM on my workstation. Playing around to find out, how it works and how to add new functionality (like sapconf or saptune). Learning a little bit SALT will - hopefully - be the nice side effect.

QDirStat in General

Since SUSE Manager doesn't scale out and stacking it into another pyramid of susemanagers won't help here, the real architectural changes needs to be done to achieve true scale-out of this product. This hackweek project is about how to Turn SUSE Manager into a cluster.

A new web UI for saltstack, possibly the future of systems management.

I will read about a book to understand linux kernel deeper. It is a heavy book, may not finish in this hackweek, but i will continue to finish it. The book name is "go deeper into linux kernel"

Currently I am using openSUSE Leap 42.2 as base system on the laptop where I do my daily work (Dell Latitude E7470). As a YaST developer my system is a bit broken (as you may guess) and updates are not possible. So it is time to start from scratch. The idea is to adopt some user friendly system for security copies, migrate to Tumbleweed, make extensible usage of virtual machines and try to stay the base system as clean as possible.

Seastar is an advanced, open-source C++ framework for high-performance server applications on modern hardware. Seastar is used in Scylla, a high-performance NoSQL database compatible with Apache Cassandra Ceph community is currently working on migration to this project as well.

QLogo is a UCBLogo-compatible implementation of the Logo language using Qt and OpenGL. QLogo was designed with the language interpreter integrated into the GUI.

The monitoring in our internal infrastructure needs some love and attention. I want to spent some time during this hack week on the monitoring by fixing old checks, implementing new checks and making sure that those are configured and installed via configuration management.
