So far the style (color, shape, ...) of the devicegraph output of libstorage-ng is hard-coded. The user of the library should somehow be able to customize the style.

Following the work started in the last hackweek, Improve OBS service scripts, I will try to migrate current service script for workers to systemd unit, and at the same time, try to get rid of the sysv code.

Create a sound board that has the following requirements:

The idea is to have a friendly way to access live cluster's nodes, compare outputs of simple commands and find out differences in tables data / structure.

When all of the SUSE Manager squads switched from SCRUM to a Kanban we lost estimations and therefore also the ability to do predictions. But there are other ways to get insights that are even more reliable, since they are based on anecdotal data. The lead and cycle times of issues are the two most important here.

Create a new generic CUPS wrapper backend /usr/lib/cups/backend/monitor that runs in parallel with the actual backend to monitor it.

Following trademark and licensing issues with Grafana, explore the possibility of debranding Grafana and use that in SUSE Manager (and maybe others)

At SUSE Manager and Uyuni we use right now a set of bash scripts called sumaform-test-runner to run terraform and cucumber, send notifications and store cucumber results.

We've (mostly @cbruckmayer) put a significant amount of time into our performance measurement dashboards based on influx/grafana. I want to share this with the world because it's most awesome and easy to use. It's also nice if people don't go to some PaaS provider just for this...

Currently, the SUMA test-suite takes about 6 hours to complete, often fails in the first tests, which set up the environment for the rest of the tests, those tests are what we named "core features".

There are attempts to solve some kernel deadlock with using lockless printk ringbuffer. The proposed implementation is pretty complex (6 stages, 6 write and 6 read barriers, two buffers, entries linked via list, ...)

Try to prototype an interactive dashboard for parts of the data available on SMELT.

motivation

As an openQA contributor I could learn from openSUSE release managers how the overall process can be improved.

The goal is to run the Elastic Inference Demo managed by kubernetes on a Raspberry Pi4 Cluster with openSUSE Kubic.

This hackweek I'll be working on Kanidm, an IDM system written in Rust for modern systems authentication. The github repo has a detailed "getting started" on the readme.

Project here: https://confluence.suse.com/display/AAI/HackWeek19 Will keep working out of HackWeek as "best effort" personal project to make it evolve and keep learning.

There are multiple reasons for this project. First, I want to re-cap my ruby programming knowledge. Secondly, this course is available on pluralsight. This is project for 1-day, where I plan to continue and create some project and dive a little bit deeper into it.

Goal:

You can encrypt your servers root filesystem, but need to provide a password during the boot process in order to "unlock" and start the system. This is easy if you have physical access to the server by entering it via keyboard. But if you do not have physical access it's not that easy.

The ESP8266 is a low-cost WI-Fi microchip with full TCP/IP stack and microcontroller capability. I want to explore the features and (in case of success) attach a BME280 to get temperature, humidity and barometric pressure information streamed over WI-Fi.

Create a gnome-shell extension inspired from an Android app floating toolbox.

I want to create an exporter for a X instagram profiile using the Instagram API.

I'm building a web-site for my drawing/painting things.

qemu-devel.opensuse.org is a port forwarder to

Research on BI tools to crawl eg. SCC data.

Acronyms are fun. Everyone at SUSE loves them. Just sometimes… you might not know what one stands for.

For a very long time, I have been planning to play with Crystal as possible substitute/complement for Ruby. With that goal, I have isolated a very small subset of the Ruby project I know the best (yast-storage-ng) and I want to migrate that subset to Crystal to get a general feeling about the language. See the repository with the experiment already in progress.

We have ActiveJob instrumentation in the OBS code base and a couple of panels in our grafana. Move this upstream to influxdb-rails.

Start awesome/people-management and properly announce the awesome setup.

Move our agile team check, with some more elaborate assessment, online to office365

This hack week project is an Unity3D app, available in Android, IOS and HTML5 platforms.

Upstream

Hamster is important for may daily workflow, as I'm using it for time accounting. While hamster-time-tracker-2.2.2 itself, as shipped on Tumbleweed, depends on python3 only, the build process requires python2. It's therefore in danger to be kicked out of the TW repos. Updating to 3.x will likely require some homework.

The admin-tools appimage provides several samba team YaST packages in a portable way, such as yast2-aduc, yast2-gpmc, yast2-adsi, and yast2-dns-manager. Currently I build the appimage on obs, but this pulls in lots of unnecessary dependencies. Making it build independently would allow building on other distros. The difficult part here is going to be building minimal YaST dependencies.

Last year I developed Terracumber and, for the moment published it at one internal GitLab repository.

This project could get us rid of the last fbdev drivers we're stil shipping: efifb and vesafb.

In financial markets traders try to win money buying cheap and selling expensive. To do that they need to understand what is going on on the market and also what will do the market in the future.

French ISP Free is providing a xDSL / Fiber modem, which includes a lot of features, including integrated NAS support and, more recently, allowing to run your own VMs (https://dev.freebox.fr/blog/?p=5450 sorry, in french)

The KEF LS50 Wireless are audiophile grade powered speakers that are fairly Linux friendly. But so far they can only be configured via an Android/iOS mobile app. I want to reverse engineer the custom binary protocol used by the apps, and build a simple Linux application to reconfigure things like DSP settings on the fly from the terminal.

The idea of this project is to learn more about SAP Gardener and its capabilities. Evaluate potentials and eventually include some capability around CaaSP that does not yet exist there.

Pinebook Pro

Last hackweek I created the pnp soundboard -> https://github.com/Devp00l/pnp-soundboard

I'm missing really badly the tool f.lux in my openSUSE machines. I really appreciate its usage specially when I'm using the computer late night.

This is a follow up to https://hackweek.suse.com/projects/architecting-a-machine-learning-project-with-suse-caasp.

"Egunean behin" (means "Once a day" in Basque) is a really popular Phone app/game in the Basque country.

There used to be a tool called tel that would show information about a user including his phone number, room number, etc:

Extend Stratos (https://github.com/SUSE/stratos) by adding the ability to integrate open-source Analysis tools such as Popeye, Kube Score, Anchore, Clair etc, so that users can run these tools on their clusters from Stratos and view the results from Stratos.

The goal is to package terraform-provider-libvirt on Homebrew to deploy the SUSE SAP and HA automation on a remote KVM host from macOS.

A Community member at FOSDEM requested MicroOS for SystemZ - spend some time at Hackweek looking at it
