openSUSE Leap 42.3 goes for a rolling release model with automated openQA tests. That covers only so much though. We need manual testing too. In previous releases a google document spread sheet was used to coordinate and track the efforts.That's probably not the best method anymore.
Come up with ideas and a prototype of how manual testing could be guided, tracked, visualized for a rolling development distribution with volunteers testing.

So I did set up a "sample" thing, it's running at http://phobos.suse.de:8000/ will play a bit more later on. Initially, I think It might serve the needs with few adaptations (if needed).
Users can register, and they will be activated instantly (Regardless of the message)

New openSUSE-welcome by lkocman
Project Description
Let's revisit our existing openSUSE welcome app.
My goal was to show Leap 16 in a new coat. Welcome app adds to the first time use experience. We've recently added donation button to our existing welcome.
Some things that I recently wanted to address were EOL and possibly upgrade notification.
I've already done some experiments with mint welcome app, but not sure if it's better than the existing one.
There is also a PR to rework existing app https://github.com/openSUSE/openSUSE-welcome/pull/36 (this should be considered as an option too)
Goal for this Hackweek
New welcome app, possibly with EOL notification for Leap.
1) Welcome application(s) with (rebrand changes) maintained under github.com/openSUSE
2) Application is submitted to openSUSE:Factory && openSUSE:Leap:16.0
3) Updated needles in openQA (probably post hackweek)

Create openSUSE images for Arm/RISC-V boards by avicenzi
Project Description
Create openSUSE images (or test generic EFI images) for Arm and/or RISC-V boards that are not yet supported.
Goal for this Hackweek
Create bootable images of Tumbleweed for SBCs that currently have no images available or are untested.
Consider generic EFI images where possible, as some boards can hold a bootloader.
Document in the openSUSE Wiki how to flash and use the image for a given board.
Boards that I have around and there are no images:
- Rock 3B
- Nano PC T3 Plus
- Lichee RV D1
- StartFive VisionFive (has some image needs testing)

Update Haskell ecosystem in Tumbleweed to GHC-9.10.x by psimons
Description
We are currently at GHC-9.8.x, which a bit old. So I'd like to take a shot at the latest version of the compiler, GHC-9.10.x. This is gonna be interesting because the new version requires major updates to all kinds of libraries and base packages, which typically means patching lots of packages to make them build again.
Goals
Have working builds of GHC-9.10.x and the required Haskell packages in 'devel:languages:haskell` so that we can compile:
git-annexpandocxmonadcabal-install

- Test that they are running correctly in a Virtual Machine.

New migration tool for Leap by lkocman
Update
I will call a meeting with other interested people at 11:00 CET https://meet.opensuse.org/migrationtool
Description
SLES 16 plans to have no yast tool in it. Leap 16 might keep some bits, however, we need a new tool for Leap to SLES migration, as this was previously handled by a yast2-migration-sle
Goals
A tool able to migrate Leap 16 to SLES 16, I would like to cover also other scenarios within openSUSE, as in many cases users would have to edit repository files manually.
- Leap -> Leap n+1 (minor and major version updates)
- Leap -> SLES docs
- Leap -> Tumbleweed
- Leap -> Slowroll
- Leap Micro -> Leap Micro n+1 (minor and major version updates)
- Leap Micro -> MicroOS
Hackweek 24 update
Marcela and I were working on the project from Brno coworking as well as finalizing pieces after the hackweek. We've tested several migration scenarios and it works. But it needs further polishing and testing.
Projected was renamed to opensuse-migration-tool and was submitted to devel project https://build.opensuse.org/requests/1227281
Repository
https://github.com/openSUSE/opensuse-migration-tool
Out of scope is any migration to an immutable system. I know Richard already has some tool for that.

Yearly Quality Engineering Ask me Anything - AMA for not-engineering by szarate
Goal
Get a closer look at how developers work on the Engineering team (R & D) of SUSE, and close the collaboration gap between GSI and Engineering
Why?
Santiago can go over different development workflows, and can do a deepdive into how Quality Engineering works (think of my QE Team, the advocates for your customers), The idea of this session is to help open the doors to opportunities for collaboration, and broaden our understanding of SUSE as a whole.
Objectives
- Give $audience a small window on how to get some questions answered either on the spot or within days of how some things at engineering are done
- Give Santiago Zarate from Quality Engineering a look into how $audience sees the engineering departments, and find out possibilities of further collaboration
How?
By running an "Ask me Anything" session, which is a format of a kind of open Q & A session, where participants ask the host multiple questions.
How to make it happen?
I'm happy to help joining a call or we can do it async (online/in person is more fun). Ping me over email-slack and lets make the magic happen!. Doesn't need to be during hackweek, but we gotta kickstart the idea during hackweek ;)
Rules
The rules are simple, the more questions the more fun it will be; while this will be only a window into engineering, it can also be the place to help all of us get to a similar level of understanding of the processes that are behind our respective areas of the organization.
Dynamics
The host will be monitoring the questions on some pre-agreed page, and try to answer to the best of their knowledge, if a question is too difficult or the host doesn't have the answer, he will do his best to provide an answer at a later date.
Atendees are encouraged to add questions beforehand; in the case there aren't any, we would be looking at how Quality Engineering tests new products or performs regression tests
Agenda
- Introduction of Santiago Zarate, Product Owner of Quality Engineering Core team
- Introduction of the Group/Team/Persons interested
- Ice breaker
- AMA time! Add your questions $PAGE
- Looking at QE Workflows: How is
- A maintenance update being tested before being released to our customers
- Products in development are tested before making it generally available
- Engineering Opportunity Board
WebUI for your data by avicenzi
A single place to view every bit of data you have.
Problem
You have too much data and you are a data hoarder.
- Family photos and videos.
- Lots of eBooks, TV Shows, Movies, and else.
- Boxes full of papers (taxes, invoices, IDs, certificates, exams, and else).
- Bank account statements (multiple currencies, countries, and people).
Maybe you have some data on S3, some on your NAS, and some on your local PC.
- How do you get it all together?
- How do you link a bank transaction to a product invoice?
- How to tag any object type and create a collection out of it (mix videos, photos, PDFs, transactions)?
- How to store this? file/folder structure does not work, everything is linked together
Project Description
The idea is a place where you can throw all your data, photos, videos, documents, binaries, and else.
Create photo albums, document collections, add tags across multiple file-formats, link content, and else.
The UI should be easy to use, where the data is not important for now (could be all S3 or local drive).
Similar proposals
The closest I found so far is https://perkeep.org/, but this is not what I'm looking for.
Goal for this Hackweek
Create a web UI, in Svelte ideally, perhaps React.
It should be able to show photos and videos at least.
Resources
None so far, this is just an idea.
Cobbler Angular Web Interface by SchoolGuy
Project Description
The old Cobbler webinterface was built into the server, leading to a huge dependency stack only required for a few people.
Goal for this Hackweek
The project should aim to finalize the first prototype of the new Angular based web interface.
A secondary goal of this hackweek is to learn a lot of Angular.
Update for Hackweek 24
The GH project received some traction since I have some vacation. As such it is my aim to get a first alpha released to close the milestone 0.0.1 (or whatever version I can release with semantic release).
