Preparing Customer Survey: Hard- and Software Stacka project by svollath Customers may face problems with their systems we weren't aware of, if we focus on testing single components. We simply can't copy each and every customer setup, but we want to have test results that are more relevant. |

openSUSE & SLE support for Puppet modules located at the Forgea project by tampakrap DescriptionOne of the PuppetLabs guys is trying to enforce best practices on administering Puppet modules, by using base modules and build services and roles on top of them. That way we can re-use external / third-party modules from forge.puppetlabs.com, ideally without touching them at all. He names that "the Lego approach". Full article. |

Add standardized REST interface to Hamstaa project by pkacer Hamsta currently lacks a standardized network interface that would allow other systems accessing its capabilities. There is a custom network interface with text-parsing based protocol that is poorly documented and needs to be implemented on the client side to be usable. This interface does not use any standardized way of communication or library. This project suggests to add a standardized web service interface (let us call it API) to Hamsta. Expected attributes are following. |
Library.suse.de update/replacementan idea by jnweiger Scanning books stopped 6 years ago. We need volunteers to take the scanner and walk through the offices. This is a good learning opportunity for trainees. The software could also be updated. If anybody looks for a replacement with a more mature opensource solution, Lars suggests KOHA which he already packaged in obs. |

Simple stretchable storage cloudan idea by hreinecke A project idea I've been carrying around for several years now. Based upon the 'referrals' concept from SPC-4 it should be rather easy to build up large volumes spread over several nodes. I'm thinking of an iSCSI target here, which gets updated via a corosync engine with any volume updates from the cluster. |
Add snapshot support to cifs.koan idea by dmdiss The File Server Remote VSS Protocol (FSRVP) was recently defined by Microsoft. It allows for SMB clients to remotely request the creation, exposure and destruction of share snapshots. Aside from support in Windows Server 2012, preliminary FSRVP server support has also been implemented for Samba. |
Add support for Amazon S3 cloud backed block devices to istgt / Elastoan idea by dmdiss Elasto is a cloud library and client utility for managing and manipulating cloud storage objects via REST. Functionality was recently added to istgt so that it can expose an Azure storage blob for access via iSCSI, it does so using Elasto's file API. |

An experimental tiny WM of Waylandan idea by NalaGinrut Wayland would replace X11 in the future (maybe soon?), we're researching/learning Wayland. And I planed to try a tiny Window Manager of Wayland for a practice. It's meaningful I think, since there's little independent WM for Wayland, except for Mutter which is a part of Gnome desktop environment. |

Learn the Basics About Creating Android Appsa project by keichwa What's about an app that helps you with downloading openSUSE documentation? Does a free app for managing gettext files (.pot, .po) already exist? |
OpenStack Tempest Dashboardan idea by jctmichel Tempest is a functional test suite used for OpenStack. It would normally run in the order of 800 tests over the period of 2 hours on a newly installed OpenStack infrastructure. Tempest is written in Python and uses nosetests as the basis of its test framework. There is a large amount of verbose that is streamed to the log file and there is also considerable ambiguity in the overall success rate. |
Zeroconf with others (GNOME Shell, Firefox, Wayland and others)a project by cxiong Zeroconf/Bonjour/Avahi is a very interesting technique that targets at freeing users of services from tedious IP-based network configuration by automatic-distributed address-assigning, name-assigning and service discovery/browsing. It's named officially as zeroconf, Bonjour is the implementation in OS X, iOS and Windows, while Avahi is for Unix-like system. However, while Bonjour is popular and widely used in Apple products, few users take advantage of Avahi in Linux world and the number of applications that do integrate Avahi are still just a few and this feature is not often used. |

virtual wifi adapter in qemuan idea by lnussel one of the top features a distribution must always ship in a working state is wireless. Yet we have no way to test it in an automated way. To be able to do that via openQA we need qemu to emulate a wireless adapter. Whether it's emulating existing hardware or implements some virtio device that only works on Linux doesn't matter. |
Inqlude, the Qt software archivea project by cschum During Hack Week 7 I worked on an archive of Qt-based libraries. The goal was to easily make all available Qt libraries accessible to developers. Think CPAN for Qt. So I hacked on a web site and a command line client. There was a little bit of progress on the project since then, but with the upcoming KDE Frameworks 5 there will be quite a number of additional libraries available for Qt developers. This should be well represented in Inqlude as well. The coverage of Inqlude is also still not complete, and the tooling needs some improvement as well, especially regarding integration with distributions. |
