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. |

SUSE incarnation of the Party Parrotan invention by rsimai The Parrot seems to have many fans meanwhile, in particular since we're running Rocket.chat at SUSE. Some may find these emoticons distracting, some find it just cool and I would certainly love to see something like the Partyparrot but as a "SUSE parrot", probably someone manages to make the SUSE Geeko move in a similar fashion, as party_geeko. Finally I'd love to see this uploaded to the cultofthepartyparrot.com under "Party Guests". Because clearly the Geeko insists! :-) Bonus: do the same with TUX for total ssǝuızɐɹɔ |

Explore RISC-Va project by clin RISC-V is an open ISA (Instruction Set Architecture) based on RISC architecture. It's originated from UC Berkeley and it's attracting more attention in recent years because of its full open architecture so every developer has opportunities to get involved in application processor design or apply it into different applications, such as IoT, Robotics, ... etc. Any topic about RISC-V is welcome, here are some topics you might be interested in: |
sysvinit-basea project by wiederda Package a basic, stripped down version of sysvinit for emergency cases, so you can repair a failed system without interference. My goal is not to replace systemd with sysvinit again, but to provide a sysvinit-base package that does not have any dependencies at all and can just be installed on any system. sysvinit will only be used in exception situations by specifying the kernel parameter "init=/sbin/init" or something like that. The package will come with the binary, a minimal inittab and a basic boot script that does only the really needed stuff. Experiment with an extension to have sysvinit execve systemd, so people can boot into their allmighty uber-daemon once the system has been fixed. |

Warp speed for virtualization CI testinga project by jfehlig The virtualization team's automated testing has a long history. It was born in the old Novell Integration Test framework. The virtualization lab ran an instance of this framework for many years. Over time, those who knew the framework left the company, taking their knowledge and leaving little documentation behind. As our testing needs increased, we found the old framework insufficient, but saw little value in improving it given the available open source CI frameworks. Before burying ourselves in SLE12 development, we took some time to move our automated tests under control of a Jenkins instance running in our lab. Tests were configured to run when new packages landed in our SLE12 devel project, ensuring our queued SLE12 submissions were continuously tested. But more is needed. |

Developer documentation of boot process (userspace)a record by mkoutny There are many tasks necessary to do since PID 1 is started by kernel before the system can do any useful work. And those tasks ideally run as parallel as possible. Unfortunately, sometimes the dependencies and ordering can get wrong resulting into race conditions or deadlocks. The goal of this project is to document in detail what happens when and explain the dependencies so it could be used as a reference when someone runs into a problem with their boot task. |
Logos Competition: openSUSE, Tumbleweed, Leap, Slowroll and Kalpaa project by ddemaio Logos Competition: openSUSE, Tumbleweed, Leap, Slowroll and KalpaThe openSUSE Community is considering a new, distinct openSUSE logo to represent the project as well as four new logos for the following openSUSE distributions; Tumbleweed, Leap, Slowroll and Kalpa.

The final goal for a number of improvements is that each gamer can play flawlessly without a single issue. |
Bootstrap openSUSE for MIPSa project by a_faerber 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. Porting openSUSE to MIPS will involve setting up an OBS instance linked to Factory (update: done) and cross-compiling a set of packages for an initial bootstrap (update: in progress). Maybe this can be scripted to some degree, as there will be some overlap with the ARM ILP32 port project. |
