Once again, the SUSE band is coming together to make music and we're planning a party this time round!!!

COREWAR is a programming game in which two or more programs (warriors or viruses) compete for the control of a virtual computer. The programs are written in Redcode, an abstract assembly language.

This is an idea that's been kicking around for a while... maybe it's finally time to "make it so."

The Kubic Project currently produces a "CaaSP-like" Tumbleweed OS, focused on Kubernetes clusters

retro-gtk is a toolkit for GTK+-based Libretro frontends. It is mainly used by GNOME Games to play retro games via Libretro gaming console emulators.

The idea is to create a fantastic robotic SUSE pet using cheap materials. It will be moved with you remote control of your TV. After building the prototype the schemes and Arduino code will be delivered for everyone to try building it at home.

Effort planning in large-scale agile projects with multiple stakeholders

Mottainai - Task/Job/Build Server for everyone!

A good way of getting to know a new programming language is... writing some code. So although there are some good IRC bouncers, like ZNC, we want to write another one just for learning.

Although availability of computer games on Linux has improved a lot there is way more potential for openSUSE to fire them up.

Make a final attempt to implement a graphical user interface for grub2 (gfxboot2).

ABF is a buildsystem developed by ROSA (rosalab.com) and OpenMandriva (https://www.openmandriva.org/) currently being used for their distribution.

Create a tool which will make it possible to monitor the lifecycle of pods in a kubernetes cluster (as well as other types of tabular or structured data), and provide a convenient user interface for viewing and interpreting that data. This will be useful in development and testing of our kubernetes-based container platform (Cloud Application Platform), as it will allow us to better understand where things are going wrong when we encounter component failures.

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

The idea here is to study and understand how ephemeral storage for containers works and investigate if local storage could be avoided at all and Ceph used instead. Could new storage driver be developed to support Ceph storage:

I want to study the knowledge of openQA I will read the online documents and do some experiment in virtal-machine.

The idea is to hack os-autoinst-distri-opensuse infrastucture and explore design patterns that can fit. The end point of this is to restructure the framework in such a way that the main-common.pm is more efficient, functional and readable.

We already tried to improve the Jangouts data model in the past and, although we made quite some progress, we did not finish it. I've been playing a bit with React and Redux lately, and I would like now to try a different approach replacing Angular with that combo. Using Vue.js might be another option too.

Background

Given the number of different demands on our time and attention, it becomes increasing hard to focus and find the 'flow state' where a developer can be most productive. Interruptions due to chat notifications, email, and updater applets all break focus. Additionally, the desktop metaphor has in most cases failed to evolve as the browser and other MDI interfaces have become the focus for many users, and increased performance has allowed us to keep more tasks running and present on the desktop at once, presenting a higher cognitive load to the user.

OSC is already available on Homebrew, but it is missing the integration with Staging as the openSUSE-release-tools are not available. In this Hackweek project I would like to get the openSUSE-release-tools running on macOS via Homebrew.

Features I'd like to implement:

Let's pick some old classic game, reverse engineer the data formats and game rules and write an open source engine for it from scratch. Some games from 1990s are simple enough that we could have a playable prototype by the end of the week.

The idea is about an easy way to allow users to make upgrades (e.g.: changing from one major version like 15.0 to version 15.1) using a GUI and as easy as they can in Ubuntu.

Project Description

In the past year we've found ourselves in the middle of a pandemic, we merged two awesome companies together, and we have completely changed the trajectory of SUSE and Rancher. This project is intended to transfer knowledge of SUSE to Rancher and Rancher to SUSE for those who may be challenged with time and resources to try new things. This gives us a chance to explore other uses for Kubernetes all while taking advantage of older equipment (for use as workers) we may have to spare.

Project Description

• Create an automated L0-support-like analytics solution for supportconfig data that is tiered across a customer's environment and SUSE environment (similar to a very modular AIOps Edge-Core approach). A pictorial overview of the ecosystem

Project Description

There is always something to do if you run the infrastructure for such a big project like openSUSE....
