openSUSE Landing Page Prototype
a project by hennevogel
www.opensuse.org is the single most accessed page in the SUSE/openSUSE universe. With 1.5 million visits per month it generates 2.5 million page views and has around 500 people on the page at any given time. Yet it's one of the oldest, crufty pages we have! It doesn't concentrate on what it should do: Tell people about the distro so they download it. It's design is 5 years old, it's not mobile, it's not accessible. There is absolutely no interactive, engaging content at all and the technology used goes as far as a shell script/cron to update dynamic content.
Obsolete Trello with Redmine
a project by jnweiger
Redmine.suse.de (as an inhouse tool) is very close to be a jump in replacement for Trello.com (the outhouse tool). Investigate into setting up a redmine-board so that it has exactly (and only) the features a Trello board has,

Revive (web)pin for openSUSE
a record by lrupp
Which package currently provides libfoo.so.6 ? A question for/from packagers and currently not easy to answer, even if the Build Service might know about the content of packages inside a repository as he created the nice filelist.gz files inside the repomd directories with all the needed information already.
openQA v2 test, fix, deploy
an invention by bmwiedemann
openqa.opensuse.org is still running on the older v1 version necessitating extra maintenance (and bringing confusion to people about which version is the right one to use). As part of this hackweek 10, we want to test kvm and alternative backends (vbox, kvm2usb) in openQA v2, fix them if needed and finally deploy the current version.
Improve and unify spec changes formating and automation for Factory rules
an invention by scarabeus_iv
This project is mostly about automating spec file formatting to have all specs more look-alike, much better for review and there is no need to force people to write that way, just to format it afterwards is sufficient. Other task is to track changes in osc repo and adjust changelog accordingly. Format spec file tasks:
salien - convert deb/pkgbuild/... into .spec
an idea by bmwiedemann
There is the alien program to convert binary packages between various formats, but it would be even nicer to be able to take a debian or archlinux build spec and convert it into an rpm .spec file. Apart from the syntax conversion, this will need some mapping for package names, so that BuildRequires and Requires match the target.
Hack the Hack Week tool
an invention by hennevogel
This project is about advancing the tool you're currently browsing. It got started back in Hack Week 9 to retire all the weird tools we've used in the past to track ideas. As you can see it has gone far but is still far from done. There are lots of features missing and bugs to be fixed on github. Get going!
Improve yast devtools
an invention by jreidinger
There is now bunch of yast devtools but the most of them are obsolete or useful only for ycp developement, which is now dead. It is also mixture of tools to build package, develop single package and new yast meta for doing changes on all modules developed by yast team. So goal is
Create new mirror-script package
a project by mcaj
I`d like to create new set of tools for mirroring ISOs and repositories from "master" server to slaves/mirrors. ATM we are using very old and buggy set of internal tools. scripts are written in several different languages (bash, perl, python) and on always easy to undigested their purpose.
Video presence system for distributed teams
a project by ancorgs
Those working remotely or managing a distributed team know it: face time is invaluable. The former openSUSE team has been using http://sqwiggle.com to keep in touch and Google hangout to hold a stand up meeting every morning. We like the Sqwiggle approach. Although the last updates have made it worse, the concept of having a peep to your colleagues' desks to know if they are there (even if they are working hard or just talking to someone) and the possibility of starting a video conversation just clicking on the face shot can do a lot in reducing distances (and in killing the temptation of working naked for home-officers).
A SUSE chronicle 0.1
a project by rhaidl
Talking to people, getting the information about what had happened in the SUSE history, bringing all together to kind of a chronicle. Let's give it a try :-)
