Occasionally, new versions of openQA break things. How do you stop that? MORE TESTING! Testing openQA by using openQA to ensure the new versions don't break should be a good example of how openQA can test everything and anything, even itself.

Have a look at the library implementation and its API. I'm just curious about the library implementation. If things goes nicely I may use it to implement cbr support for http://gfxprim.ucw.cz later.

My home server, and my other box hosting https://sysrich.co.uk are both in need of a bit of a refresh While I could be nice and conservative and pick an openSUSE regular release, I'm actually considering using openSUSE Tumbleweed, and fully embracing the 'Servers as Cattle' concept

We have some internal systems for videoconferencing like Big Blue Button or OpenMeetings. But in my experience none of them can compare to Google Hangouts, which is still the best free (as in free beer) alternative for videoconferencing with integrated screen sharing. While implementing an alternative to Sqwiggle on previous hackweek, I discovered Janus, a lightweight WebRTC gateway that proved to be a quite capable tool to implement video applications.

DAPS, the "DocBook Authoring and Publishing Suite" provides a tool set for easy creation and publication of DocBook sources on Linux. DAPS lets you create HTML (incl. webhelp), PDF, EPUB, man pages, and other formats with a single command. DAPS is used and developed by teh SUSE documentation team. The official DAPS release is 1.1.7. SUSE internally DAPS 2.0 rc2 has been released. A few issues need to be fixed (mainly closing open bugs and adding missing test cases). The goal of this project is to fix these issues, so DAPS 2.0 can be publicly released.

I'm currently using LastPass as password manager but it has several drawbacks: * closed-source

As every hackweek, lets package/update/cleanup some stuff fore factory: Update/package:

Squeezeboxserver

I'm interesting in SLEnkins project and I want to learn it a bit. I will try it and know how it works and how to use it.

It is fabulous to get machines from cloud for automation testing, and there are lots of things to learn in cloud. So I will start the cloud journey in this hackweek, to learn suse cloud architecture, various technologies inside cloud, and try to deploy one.

The Atom Editor

There is a pretty nice open source text editor and IDE called Atom,

The goal of openQA is "test as a QA engineer". But openQA has no ears - all we can test for are DTMF sounds. And even those are very bad. So my hackweek project is to do research on how to do proper sound verification. The keys are proper normalization of the volume and the sample rate.

Tronsmart has a Rockchip rk3368 based set-top-box [1]. I want to use it as a arm64 based workstation running openSUSE.

Since my Orange Pi board just arrived, I will play with it. This includes:

Tronsmart has a Rockchip rk3368 based set-top-box [1]. I want to use it as a arm64 based workstation running openSUSE.

This hackweek, we will be hacking on Weblate and adding features that we need to use it as a translation tool for openSUSE! Chief among those is a better permission management that would allow us to assign different rights to different projects, languages, distributions etc.

using perl's Inline::Python module, it should be possible to define openQA test modules in python instead of perl.

Dochazka is a long-term project to replace the obsolete Attendance & Time Tracking system used by the Prague office since 2007. Dochazka is a complex system consisting of three major components: - RESTful backend App::Dochazka::REST (with lots of help from Web::MREST)

[96 boards](96boards.org) are the series open source boards with same size and interface launched by linaro. There are two arm 64bit boards and one sensor kit in my hand.

By analysing a VNC session, we can create a draft of an openQA testcase (detecting keystroke, mouse click and generating fullscreen needles). The project is to :

Let's do this :) !!! https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/systemsmanagement:crowbar:master

Packman reduction

Given that Leap is now available, as installation media, we are going to dedicate some time to release ready to use 'Just enough Operating

While in general everything still works, the current (patached/extended) planet installation behind planet.opensuse.org is a bit outdated and not maintained any more. The initial plan is to:

SCC doesn't require an email address, so could you automatically generate random keys until one matches and effectively 'steal' SCC licenses from customers?

I want to learn more about SDN and NFV, so i have started reading some book ASIN: B00WF85208 and prepared a list of things to get deeper into: - SDN

GOAL

Orcas are amazing animals. They are playful, intelligent, great swimmers, and very social. They also love to play with their food, hunting down their prey with advanced strategies - understanding where its prey hides, how it will try to escape, and how to overcome those tactics - and having a lot of fun doing so, before relentlessly tearing it apart, killing it, and eat it. Not necessarily in that order. Oh, and they have the right color scheme. This forces their prey to also improve and adapt more advanced strategies and tactics. In this arms race, both sides evolve and improve: the evolutionary pressure has made cephalopods highly intelligent, adaptable, and resilient. Unfortunately (for them), they are still very tasty. So we should exert more evolutionary pressure on individuals to help them stay alive as a species.

With all the changes in the qa_virtauto world, our local CI testing has become rather fragile. This project is all about stabilizing the CI testing and ensuring all builds are fully tested - without manual intervention. :)

Flatpak (previously known as xdg-app) is a bundle system, based on ostree, to easily make available applications bundle to users. Currently, flatpack is available on openSUSE Tumbleweed but we don't ship any runtime based on openSUSE (freedesktop or GNOME runtime). Also, it could be interesting to generate flatpak bundle directly from OBS, if possible, using either available packages or directly application sourcecode.

I've attempted this several times already and each attempt had different shortcomings. I'm kind of curious about how exactly will I fail this time. And it looks like I haven't failed this time.

The idea behind the project comes from recent work on integration of OpenDayLight with Suse OpenStack Cloud 6/7. The goal for this Hackweek project is to realize a demonstrable NFV use-case on Suse OpenStack Cloud with as much reduced manual orchestration as possible. The use-case to consider is to run a Service Function Chain(SFC) with basic Network functions like Firewall/QoS that run as services on JeOS Guests on SUSE OpenStack Cloud (SOC).

Distributed teams, cultural differences, expectations and habits are a natural enemy of vibrant, productive meetings (yes, meetings can be productive!). In this project I'd like to work on a different format and targeted exercises to provide ideas and a resource library to anyone interested in spicing up stale meetings. I am looking for your ideas, problems and examples - Feel free to join!

The GPD Win is a Nintendo 3DS XL sized PC featuring a keyboard and gaming controls. Having openSUSE working on it would be great, unfortunately Tumbleweed doesn't work at all on it and Leap 42.2 is lacking many important features.

there is a small security, data manipulation bug on the hackweek-tool. You can try to find it, i will then post it at the end of the hackweek

Build a base image and template (both kiwi and Dockerfile) for openSUSE Leap 42.3 using the native OBS container building feature. Results/WIP will be available here:

since i am learning golang, i will make some contributions for the upstream project we used already @suse https://github.com/dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt

CaaSP is designed to be used with containers based on SUSE micro OS, using Salt as the management tool. CaaSP2 GMC is available at the moment. I want to spend the hackweek 0x10 to play with it, figure out how CasSP integrate and work with Salt. My target is to understand the CasSP, like the advantage it take to k8s. How salt works in CasSP?

How to deploy container - Docker based on SUSE CaaS Platform.

2019

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.

Various improvements to Rocket.Chat, like - adding a IRC/Rocket.Chat gateway

We all pant for customer data. Which hardware do customers run ? Which packages are installed ? Which services are running ? etc. pp. A lot of this data is in the supportconfig. But this is neither collected, nor centralized, not easily accessible.

OpenFaaS - Functions as a Service Get familiar with one of the hottest topics for this year: https://www.openfaas.com/

I want to create devel project for cryptocurrencies/mining tools/blockchain related stuff, fill it with packages and submit at least some of them to Tumbleweed. Lets go on as Standa took care of creating network:cryptocurrencies

After an internal call for help to take over software.opensuse.org deployment, I spend some time studying the code in order to find out what would it mean to take it over. The main reason was a PR from the community that has not been merged, and deployment depending on internal SUSE employees.

A few months ago, I started thinking "it cannot be that hard to model my house using some CAD software". And of course I miserably failed. I'm using this week as an opportunity to take the time to learn about CAD and manage to do something with it. And it's a good project where I can deal with interruptions (which are expected).

Avahi is (among others) a domain names auto-configuration system for Linux compatible with Bonjour. The project is to dig into avahi source code to modernize it if possible and fix bugs.

This issue has been blocked for a while due to time constraints so I want to take Hackweek 19 to work on it.

The project aims to port openSUSE to the ROCKPro64. The ROCKPro64 is the most powerful Single Board Computer released by Pine64. It is powered by a Rockchip RK3399 Hexa-Core (dual ARM Cortex A72 and quad ARM Cortex A53) 64-Bit Processor with a MALI T-860 Quad-Core GPU.

• implement a POC deploying CaaSP v4 on top of AWS using: Spotinst's elastigroup
• "Spotinst Elastigroup predicts Spot Instances behavior, capacity trends, pricing, and interruptions rate. Whenever there’s a risk of interruption, Elastigroup acts accordingly to balance capacity up to 15 minutes ahead of time, ensuring application availability.

Take the oportunity to learn Kubernetes, to play with AWS and compare performance and availability of openQA and OBS instances and openSUSE Mirrors running on AWS. - https://aws.amazon.com/

openQA currently supports different architectures: x86(_64), ppc64le, aarch64 and s390x. In this project I would like to add support for RISC-V[1]. First emulated ontop of x86, like we previously did with aarch64. As openSUSE images for that processor are already generated, it could be useful to do some basic automated tests on them.

For events like engineering summit or hackweeks, it would be nice to have a SUSE instance of workadventu.re, and have our own maps, wired with (open)SUSE's jitsi! I am looking for folks willing to help on those 3 teams:

Project Description

Releasing rancher is currently a complex process and requires release captains to make alot of manual commits. Much of this work is very procedural. Our goal is to automate the more mundane tasks to make it faster and easier for new release captains to get started.
