I want to use this week to familiar with the SUSE products that i don't have time/chance to participate. For instance, SUSE Cloud, SUSE storage, Docker etc... Just like the presentations in SUSEcon 2015 closing keynote.

A nice project for enhancing the winter time:

As live migration is widely used in many scenarios nowadays, spend one week time to study it and try to improve its efficiency, e.g. seamlessly migrate with less downgrading the guest. Another challenging part is memory migration, as it involves the dirty memory's detection, record and copy.

Rationale:

bundler-audit is an open source that scans you Gemfile.lock (if you program with ruby) for known vulnerabilities.

Metadata project provides testsuites as a service. Slenkins test wants to use metadata but requires two new fields. I will add nodes and incompatible two new fields.

During testing virtualization , I usually met some issue and can not position the issue location (host or guest), so I would like to deeply learn QEMU code, card the work flow, understand communication mechanism between host and guest.

Project Description

With this project I would like to refresh/update the confluence documentation describing how SUSE Manager maintenance works and how to process a SUSE Manager update round.

There are several game launchers for Linux already (like Lutris or GR-lida), but none of them is focused on compatibility with old Linux games or other ancient native applications. At the same time it is getting more and more difficult to get those old applications to run on modern Linux distributions.

Project Description

Have a play with SUSE CAP on AWS during this hackweek.

Project Description

Planning to do some deep learning course sessions e.g. fastai , google ML crash course etc. Also try to understand common tools (tensorflow, jupyter notebook, numpy, pandas, pytorch) and practices e.g. Convoluation neutral nets, SGD used to solve learning problems.

The current GUI of FriCAS is ancient and difficult to use. I plan to improve that by using modern GUI frameworks, at least to make a working proof-of-concept demo to show this idea works.

Purpose:

Learn QT and make something to try it.

Learning design model can help to produce high quality codes, which will benefit our products.

The goal is to jump forward with this fate: https://fate.suse.com/319319

Read RoR docs and continue the TODO list from https://events.opensuse.org/conference/oSC16/program/proposal/894 + issues from https://github.com/ChrisBr/rails101/issues as a practice.

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...

I had an application can't run on recent openSUSE for some time but it can run on openSUSE13.1 before. So I'd like to have a docker container (image) to run the application and learn some about docker container

Right now, during the (open)SUSE installation process, the changes to be performed on the storage devices are presented as a list of actions such as:

Project Description

The public cloud is generally not a high availability-friendly environment, with unpredictable I/O latencies and machine stalls, custom tools needed for handling IP assignment etc. The idea with this project is to see if there is any way to leverage the Raft algorithm and booth together with pacemaker_remote for resource management to manage cloud instances and services running in the cloud.

Learn Vim by reading book of Practical Vim

Currently, the Xen-Project supports automated build-testing/CI via GitLab pipelines, within containers based on:

Preparations towards release of ReaR 2.8

and find out how it compares to salt

Project Description

Description

The Fuji X series cameras are not well supported in libgphoto2 yet.

The plan is to start working towards a rewrite of xdg-utils in python, focusing on the really bad bits such as dealing with desktop files and mime handling.

Description

xli is SUSE's own fork of XLoadImage

Description

Blender is a nice software which needs a lot of practices.

Project Description

Creating an alarm system in case of a rogue app filling up disk space with logs, system error or break-in attempt.

Description

I have a Loupedeck CT but it really annoys me that this hardware is unsupported on Linux. I already started implementing some software support for this, and some basic interaction (input events to be precise) are already working. There is still quite some work to be done.

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

I would like to learn more about something outside of engineering. I have selected to learn more about marketing; something our overall team is doing more of...

Description

My proposal for hack week is to dive into diagramming for the doc(s) team(s) as I've struggled to give it the decent block of time it needs.

This project is about using Salt SSH for managing systems without the need of an additional agent to be installed (besides sshd). With the SSH protocol the connection is initiated by the management server, thus Salt SSH can be used to even manage systems that are located outside of company firewalls, i.e. machines that cannot access a salt-master due to firewall restrictions.

Continue development of generic job server in haskell with primary focus on continuous integration and later possibly as support tool for data analysis in semantic file storage server, software configuration engine, etc

Project Description

gettext tools are used by many other projects to process translation files.

I'm planning to do some research about RV32E which has only 16 GPRs, but riscv-pk doesn't have RV32E support so that the RV32E aware GCC (https://github.com/kito-cheng/riscv-gcc/tree/riscv-next) cannot build riscv-pk. I'm going to study how the proxy kernel works so that I can do some modification to let it support RV32E.

Rationale:

DevOps teams face double sided challenges: development tasks should be planable and maintenance tasks should maintain their flow to provide maximum value through the queue. Build a prototype JIRA project to help them organize their workload with a Scrum board for their development tasks and a Kanban board for their maintenance work, all fed from a common backlog.

Project Description

There are lots of interesting presentations happening all throughout SUSE on all manner of subjects. Presenters have found all kinds of creative ways to showcase their content using different shapes, templates, and other tools to convey important information. If you're looking to start a new presentation, the current slide templates are great to get started with but often time presenters have to look elsewhere for design inspiration. The goal of this project is to create a centralized "extended catalog" of Powerpoint and Impress templates, as a compliment to the existing templates, and make them available to SUSE employees through ImageRelay, that can serve as inspiration and templates for those looking to create rich and complex presentations based on examples built by fellow SUSE employees.
