Ideas about local community involvementa project by vsvecova The plan is to gather ideas about how SUSE can become a more integral part of the local tech community scene (in PRG, NUE, or other locations). As a person who has been involved in educating women about tech for some time, I am thinking of introductory workshops and meetups, aimed not necessarily only at female audience. |

Simple command line monitoring of OpenStack Monasca installationan idea by joadavis Monasca is "Monitoring at Scale" for OpenStack and cloud services. It is a little tricky to run in its current form. There are a number of services that make up Monasca, and a number of underlying services (kafka, zookeeper, spark, etc) that are needed. Add on top of that Ceilosca (Ceilometer metering using Monasca as a back end) and the list gets longer. |

The idea is to enable a series of email notifications as the smoker and contents reach their "done" temperature. |
SSH Tunnel YaST Plugina project by gary_smith Learn about developing a YaST plugin by creating a plugin to manage SSH Tunnels. Creating SSH port tunnels along with corresponding iptables rules is a useful technique for being able to access virtual machines on a remote host that only visible on a private network. Managing and maintaining these connections via scripts and tmux sesssions is less desirable than doing it through a nice UI like YaST. Note that the CLI tool https://www.npmjs.com/package/ssh-tunnel-manager has some nice ideas for managing groups and profiles that may be useful. |
Jeedom House automation with SLES on RPIa project by cbosdonnat I recently got Jeedom working on SLES for Raspberry Pi. However, I'ld love to play more with it like controlling my window shutters. This hackweek could also be an occasion to get as much as possible of the jeedom plugins to work on SLES and openSUSE. |

OpenQA appliancea project by bear454 This is an idea that's been kicking around for a while... maybe it's finally time to "make it so." Minimally: |
Compare & implement a simple way to startup an open SISan idea by bear454 Washington state is a leader in Alternative Learning Experiences, public schools that teach in unique ways. In order to manage the requirements imposed by the State office of public education, ALEs must use some form of a Student Information System (SIS). Most ALEs in the state subscribe to a closed-source SIS: Wings; most school districts and program administrators have either no knowledge of open source SIS, or are the subject of FUD from vendors like Wings. |
Recipe for packaging Electron appsan idea by bear454 Electron apps are popping up everywhere, from the Atom editor to the Rocket.Chat client to Kap, a cross-platform open-source screen recorder. Electron apps are based on web technologies, and built from the ground up to be platform-agnostic. The electron framework is open source, and most of the apps are as well, but they are typically distributed (for Linux) as either a tarball or via npm. |
Study and play with Machine Learninga project by wanghaisu I am HA developer, don't have any experience on machine leaning field. Recent years, many topics like "Data Analysis, Data Mining, Data Science, Machine Learning, and Big Data, etc... (I don't forget AI, but in not this time)" become more and more popular and seems interesting to me. I also want to know how high availability function implemented in some distributed system for the core part. Google TensorFlow1.0 just released, it is the time to play on it. |
Automation of virtualization testing in QAM team (deployment+basic test scenario)a project by brhavel This was planned for previous hackweek (hw16-1) => Automated deployment of virtualization hosts and build up of virtual machines for xen+kvm+related tool testing. |
Better Boot Screens with BPAEngine (Plymouth)a project by mdeniz This project is about hacking and pushing further an engine called BPAEngine written in plymouth that enable people to develop better boot screens without much effort. Having those new boot screens in our distributions would be great. Plymouth is a "basic" scripting language for developing boot screens (See some Fedora examples running). Our openSUSE distributions have their own plymouth themes packaged on the branding-openSUSE package. And in my opinion they are very basic..., just a dot moving in 3 positions with the nice background and a logo. |
Add information about listeners to Jangouts UIa project by ancorgs 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. Copy&Paste from the last comment there: It's true there is a lot of room for improvements to raise the awareness about "lurkers". For example, we could compare the number of people subscribed to your stream and the number of publishers. If numbers do not match, there is somebody listening but not being displayed. That's something we could show in the UI. |
Add zypper markauto/unmarkauto commands to allow tuning automated cleanupa project by mlandres Packages added by the dependency solver in order to resolve a user's request, are marked as having been automatically installed. They may later be removed, if no more manually installed packages depend on them (e.g. by zypper remove --clean-deps). However things may go haywire. Automatically installed packages may turn out to be useful, and you may want to exclude them from any automatic cleanup. And vice versa. |
YaST Integration Tests Using Cucumbera project by lslezak Currently we use openQA for the the YaST integration tests. It runs YaST in a VM and controls it via emulating keyboard input. The result is checked by comparing the screenshots. This approach has several disadvantages: |
Upstreaming of mediatek helios boardan idea by mbrugger The only Mediatek "hacker" board available is from 96 Boards [1]. Unfortunately up to now there is nearly no mainline support. Idea would be to improve this situation. The idea would be to get the pin-controller merged first and then hopefully most of the other stuff can be just added (fingers crossed...) |
Docker for Beginnersa project by shundhammer Using docker as a development platform for nontrivial development environments sounds interesting. This project is about learning basic docker handling, about exploring how to use it for simplifying development, and maybe (but just maybe) about providing ready-made docker containers for new team members. |

Investigate using Terraform plus Salt as HA cluster test platforma project by KGronlund For testing Hawk, we're currently using a Vagrant configuration, and for testing HA releases we've been using a set of scripts originally authored by Antoine Ginies as a Hackweek project. My vague idea is to combine Terraform, Salt and a custom web frontend to make a tool that can be used by us as developers but also for others that want to try Hawk or play around with a cluster, for example for the UX team when testing modifications to the Hawk UI. I would base this on the work done by the SUSE Manager team: |
OpenStack with python3an idea by tbechtold Currently we have only packages for python2 but OpenStack is starting to work with Python3 so we need python3 packages and try to get it working. |

Write a personal Telegram bota project by imanyugin The goal is to reduce the number of applications installed on the mobile phone (which consequently reduces the number of ads and spyware) and transfer some of the functionality of the commonly installed apps to a personal Telegram Bot. Bots are a great way of implementing integration with external services, and, to this end, we expect the following functionality: |
Support verification of digitally signed PDFs in Evincean idea by mkoutny PDF format allows inclusion of digital signatures. Unfortunately, Evince can't provide these metadata to the user. There's an upstream bug and actual implementation resides in poppler. The integration is still incomplete though. |

Get rid of perl-apparmora project by goldwynr Perl-apparmor is obsolete in the apparmor community. No one is maintaining it. However, opensuse has to keep it to interact with yast, which is the main consumer of perl-apparmor. Getting rid of perl-apparmor would mean: + Creating a new interface (JSON) to interact with outside world (IOW, yast) |
Do something useful with the TPMan idea by mwilck Almost all our laptops, and many servers, feature a TPM today. The TPM doesn't have the best reputation in the community because it could be used to lock down platforms or do nasty things with DRM. Under normal conditions on PCs, the TPM is controlled by the system owner and could actually be useful for almost anything involving crypto. Unfortunately the integration of the TPM in the OS is essentially non-existent. The introduction of the TPM2.0 standard complicates matters, because we now have two different devices with different APIs. The goal of this project would be to identify reasonable use cases for the TPM, evaluate exisiting projects, and create ways how to integrate it into various workflows in openSUSE. |
Secure keyboardan idea by mwilck This idea was inspired by the recent discussion on the "talk" mailing list about the (in)security of the German ID card. The Chaos Computer Club and other researchers claim that the ID card is insecure. Actual attacks that have been demonstrated are based on keyloggers. Keyloggers might be the biggest security threat for Linux users at this time. Keyloggers are trivial to write for Linux and readily installable, and a keylogger with normal user rights may read root's password. One might ask "Why are we caring about local root exploits at all as long as users run stuff like sudo in X terminals"? Keyloggers can even read the input from devices like the Yubikey. |
buit: fancy ultra fast mail client or "my local gmail"a project by dmacvicar My current mail setup is mu4e and emacs based mail client included with the amazing mu mail indexer. mu works similar to notmuch but allows easy bidirectional operation with the original Maildir.
