As we know, we have ABC notation or GNU Lilypond for music staff. It takes ASCII as input and generates music scores and even MIDI format, which is very convenient for people to type music in computer.

Connect is the "social network" of the openSUSE community. While this might not sound so important, the problem is that the tool is used for membership management and all the other "administrative" stuff for the openSUSE community, which makes it a very important tool.

Laitos is an open source project written in go, it emphasizes simplicity of maintenance and delivers a complete suite of web, DNS, and mail servers to host a personal web server. Beyond the suite of servers, laitos software hooks into numerous API platforms, that altogether enable user access to Internet features (such as Facebook, Twitter, emails) via alternative communication infrastructures such as telephone (PSTN), SMS, and satellite terminals.

With the approach of kernel 5.6 SGI Octanes are supported with builtin IO components. What's missing for a graphics workstation is a driver for the graphics card. There is already a not upstreamed framebuffer driver for Impact graphic cards. Since there will be no new framebuffer driver accepted upstream, the goal of this project is to convert the existing frame buffer driver to a DRM driver and make it ready to be sent upstream.

Project Description

The kernel livepatching team developed klp-ccp to automate the work intensive task of copy&pasting self-contained livepatches from the original kernel sources together. We started using it right away as soon as it had been in a somewhat workable state, even though some quirks and workarounds are still required in everyday usage. The main barrier towards developing klp-ccp further is its internal compiler abstraction, intended to keep the generic code independent from the original compiler resp. the target architecture. It evolved over time and had been amended incrementally in an ad-hoc fashion as needed to quickly reach the main goal at the time. So there's room for improvement.

Description

The idea is to build a FOSS command line (for now) secrets management tool, you may have heard of SOPS or Hashicorp Vault, with Spritely Goblins.

Recently I became a (not very proud) owner of Acer Aspire Switch 10E, a small notebook/tablet convertible based on Intel baytrail platform. Replacing preinstalled (32-bit!) Windows 8.1 with (64-bit) openSUSE proved more challenging than expected, mostly because the device is haunted by a 32-bit UEFI so that it took me a week to make it boot without an external USB flash disk.

In ubuntu, you can install grub-ipxe, which adds an ipxe entry to the grub menu. This allows you to easily pxe boot on machines that may not natively support it. You can also use it along with grub2-reboot to remotely re-image a machine. The project has been started here: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:blarson:grub-ipxe
