Right now, every time a new team wants a new room in our Jangouts instance, they have to ping me and I have to manually create the room. That means:

Now we are lack of using internal wiki page to solve problem. One of the reason is that we don't know if it contain the solution we need, and it's not convenient to search it manually in wiki page. It's much more slower than using google. In one group, we are most likely facing the same problem during work. So keeping the best solution, which we got from searching engine, in internal wiki is an efficiency way to collect standard workflow.

The current Jangouts UI is limiting us when thinking about adding new features. Some examples:

Description

This project aims to address the challenge of automating regular data backups from Android phones to a Nextcloud server, leveraging the Folder Sync application. While Nextcloud’s official Android client struggles with scaling large amounts of files and negatively impacts phone performance, Folder Sync offers robust and flexible syncing capabilities. However, it lacks a builtin import/export configuration feature. Even in its paid versions, Folder Sync only supports importing JSON configurations for business setups, which isn't suitable for personal use cases with Nextcloud.

While normally data is passed to linuxrc (including an AutoYaST profile), modern auto-install tools like Ignition from CoreOS support a very interesting method: the QEMU Firmware Config device.

Description

Continue the work on kqlite (Lightweight remote SQLite with high availability and auto failover).

The situation of maintained ansible roles for boring server stuff like setting up a LEMP stack (Linux, nginx, mariadb, php) is dire and I would like to improve that. This project is about creating a handful of ansible roles with focus on

A frame work for automatically analysis the result of the performance test. The tool can be used manully as well as used throught openAPI.

As DBus a main component in Linux user space, in this hackweek I plan to learn more about it.

libvirt+Xen should support the qdisk (qemu) rbd backend, providing native access to block devices hosted on Ceph clusters. Adding this support to the libvirt+Xen toolstack will also improve interoperability with SUSE Enterprise Storage.

A new Puppet Master will be set up for the openSUSE and public SUSE infrastructure. We will need to move the puppet code from the old server to a new Gitlab instance, deploy it to the new box with r10k, and perform syntax, validation and RSpec testing through ci.opensuse.org

This project is about fixing this known Jangouts issue that is reported over and over, since many user experiencing problem with the outgoing WebRTC traffic or with camera authorization can "lurk" what happens in the room without being noticed.

Build and benchmark some smaller SES clusters (2 - 3 nodes) targetted at edge deployments. Evaluate the performance and configurations.

Introduction

Parametrizable formulas is a normal salt module plus some metadata in order to interactively parametrize them. The metadata is used to automatically generate forms that are then injected as pillar data.

The recent glibc 2.33 version recently available in Tumbleweed includes this change:

The goal of my project is to achieve total world domination. == Hell, yeah!

The goal is to learn about Kaggle and Machine Learning.

Use machine learning and natural language processing techniques to analyze the changes made in a project, and classify them in:

We need to package avocado, get it into distro and migrate some of our testsuites from ctcs2. Atm avocado is present in openSUSE:Factory and Backports exist at my home project

Create a prototype of an agent on kvm hosts to control the distributen of master / worker nodes between different kvm hosts. No central control plane should be used - the main design goal should be: as simple as possible :-)

Project Description

Try some things about Docker and Understanding Linux Network Internals

This project aims for enabling FCoE over virtio-net. With that we should be able to run FCoE within a KVM guest, and finally have a 'real' FC host in a KVM guest. This should enable 'real' FC testing, like link failure, multipath operations etc.

Description

I would like to make a simple cli tool to communicate with the OpenQA API

Description

The setup script of postfix /usr/sbin/config.postfix is very old and very often causes problems. We need to discuss whether we need such a script at all. Postfix is extremely complex. Configuring everything via scripts and sysconfig variables is impossible and ultimately does not make things any easier. It is difficult to decide what should be configurable in this way and what should not. Since openSUSE/SLES 16.0, there is no longer a graphical tool that would really simplify configuration. Furthermore, the basic configuration of Postfix is a one-time task that requires a great deal of expertise. During operation, only the postmaps need to be maintained.

In last hackweek, I implemented a RSA private key parser in kernel: https://github.com/SUSE/hackweek/wiki/RSA-private-key-parser-in-kernel

There is a number of possible improvements to the architecture of SUSE Manager / Salt integration that should be investigated in order to improve the reliability and scalability of the backend:

QA uses a dashboard (SUSE internal: http://qa.suse.de/dashboard/ ) to provide an overview of various data to assess the quality of a product.

This would be a multiple step solution, a first idea that I would explore would be:

Currently, each filesystem developer does his fstests runs (a testsuite for regression-testing of filesystems) on his dedicated test machine, on Orthos machine, ... This not only means duplication of efforts to automate this testing but also leads to inefficient use of resources (sometimes the test machine is just idle, sometimes you would need more tests to run in parallel to speed up development). The goal of this effort is to use SUSE Engineering Cloud to implement fire-and-forget fstests runs where you specify kernel to test (fetched from git tree or so), fstests configs to run, and then just pick up test results later on...

The aim of this project is to finish up the work already done in previous editions of Hackweek in regards to zypper-docker. That being:

Two trainees embarking on their coding adventure!

I would like to work mainly on https://fate.suse.com/323638, think of default configuration and perhaps create a small configuration script for conky.

This will greatly enhance the usefulness of QEMU virtual serial ports, because the Linux kernel interprets a break on the serial console as a SysRq, but there is currently no way to pass this signal over a pseudo-terminal.

While in the past MIPS boards were either low-end PIC32 or found in routers running OpenWRT at most, Imagination themselves have recently released the Creator CI20 board (Ingenic, MIPS32) running Debian. And the Shield Pro (previously iGuardian) kickstarter project (Octeon-III, MIPS64) promises to become a playground for testing KVM hardware virtualization.

and find out how it compares to salt

QA wants to set up a new QA Portal to get an new organized entry point for all Information that is QA related. The Hackweek Project is to start a discussion with the different QA groups, SLE QA, CSS QA and QAM to collect ideas and make a concrete plan.

Language Server Protocol (LSP for friends) is used in a number of code editors these days. There are implementations for various languages, but none for Salt States.

This project aims to develop a comprehensive Data Observability Dashboard that provides r insights into key aspects of data quality and reliability. The dashboard will track:

This hackweek, we will be hacking on Weblate and adding features that we need to use it as a translation tool for openSUSE!

• learn how to write Dracut modules

Machinery supports inspection of SLES11 and SLES12 systems right now.

From time to time we face collisions when two teams would like to play at the same time.

openvswitch is more used by openstack and software defined networking stack. And it seems having a lot of improvements. In this hackweek, I'd like to see what's

SUSE is using OBS as a build system and openQA for automated testing purposes. The goal of the study is to find out the strengths and weaknesses of these systems and compare them to other open source alternatives in a structured way.

Description

Our previous efforts to enable gdb to open kdumps was not received in upstream as well as we hoped for. The perhaps-acceptable way would be to extend gdb with the possibility of implementing targets in Python, then create example binding to libkdumpfile (which already got a Python binding). We've already tried that, yet it has to be tidyed up.

retro-gtk is a toolkit for GTK+-based Libretro frontends. It is mainly used by GNOME Games to play retro games via Libretro gaming console emulators.

Yes, those VGA video cards. The goal of this project is to implement a DRM graphics driver for such devices. While actual hardware is hard to obtain or even run today, qemu emulates VGA output.

I've attempted this several times already and each attempt had different shortcomings. I'm kind of curious about how exactly will I fail this time.

A lot of custom-built or ethusiast-level keyboards such as the Planck, Zeal60, Let's Split and many more use an open-source firmware called QMK. This firmware allows you to freely define your keyboard layout and add a lot of functionality (i.e. emitting a different keycode on long and short keypress, dual-function keys, leader keys (think of vi's :)). We could use the Hack Week to add functionality, check the source code for security issues and add support for more keyboards.

Termux is already bringing a terminal and debian package manager to Android.

Clair is a static vulnerability analyzer for containers. Currently it supports containers based on Debian, Ubuntu and RedHat.

Introduction

To make sure openSUSE can coexist nicely with an existing Windows installation, we need to have automated regression testing. UEFI and secure boot are especially interesting.That means installing Windows and openSUSE in parallel in openQA.

SUSE CaaS Platform is a Cloud-Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) certified Kubernetes distribution.

Tumbleweed wouldn't be possible without staging projects and managing staging projects isn't possible with a nice GUI. The staging dashboard is there to help but needs some love, esp when comparing

Flatpak (previously known as xdg-app) is a bundle system, based on ostree, to easily make available applications bundle to users. Currently, flatpack is available on openSUSE Tumbleweed but we don't ship any runtime based on openSUSE (freedesktop or GNOME runtime).
