[opensuse-project] [GSoC] Project "Add snapshot support to libvirt xenlight driver" progress
by David kiarie 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Hi there, This week I was making changes to a series of patches about 20 patches I submitted last week as the libvirt developers recommended. In the meantime, I have noticed that there is a lot of activity on the xen mailing list regarding snapshot support in xen and I hope it will result in something good and maybe I will finish my work on snapshot support in libvirt xenlight driver. Next week I submit version two of the series of patches which will hopefully include a working prototype of a xen-xl parser. Cheers, David. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [GSoC2014] Weekly Update for TSP app
by karthik senthil 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Hello everyone, This is a brief summary of my progress last week. There was a quick change in the method of implementation of creating a dynamic state machine. My mentor helped me by pointing out the method given in the official documentation of the state_machine gem. https://github.com/pluginaweek/state_machine#static--dynamic-definitions I have implemented the same for the request model and tested out its complete working on the console. This method is also very robust as the states and transition_events will be loaded every call on the fly dynamically, hence not requiring to recreate or empty the machine at any point of time(like updates or create actions). However the method has minor shortcomings which I will be discussing with my mentor soon. Next week, I plan on extending this method to the remaining machines,namely reimbursement and shipment. Thank You Karthik.S 3rd Year,Information Technology NITK,Surathkal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Re: Weekly Report [OSEM][Week 9] [GSoC]Event Splash Page for Visitors
by Gopesh Tulsyan 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Hello Community, Well, this week was really busy for me, I had to go college twice for my registration purposes and room allotment and it consumed 2 working days of the week.Still James co-operated with me and I have pushed the remaining notifications, they are currently in review.I am just left with one more notification from the list that I mentioned last weekend.Delayed job integration is still pending. On a different note, I have some github issues pending for the splash and work that I have done which was found as bugs.So I wish to spent the next week completing the github issues, integrate delayed jobs or any background queuing gem for sending emails and complete the notifications. As per my proposal, I discussed with James, we are not using redis in the production and so we will not intrgrate any in-house notification system for OSEM. Rather, I will have to discuss other feature that I can implement in time and would also write some documentation of using the splash. That's all this week!! Happy Hacking :) Gopesh Tulsyan ROR Enthusiast, Final Year Information Technology, National Institute of Technology, Durgapur On Sun, Jul 13, 2014 at 8:56 AM, Gopesh Tulsyan <gopesh.7500(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hello Community, > This week I started with email notifications.

[opensuse-project] We have not fallen off the face of the planet

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Our sincere apology. As you have seen this week we have not fallen of the face of the planet. Although we have not been diligent about posting our meeting minutes, yes since oSC14, we did meet and keep minutes. All the minutes are no on the wiki. There were no meetings on April 21st, May 5th, and June 16th. For all the other meeting dates the meeting minutes have been published to http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meeting Again, our apology for the tardiness after oSC14 had passed. We will do better going forward now that the backlog of minutes has been posted. As always if you have questions or concerns please feel free to respond to this thread or send a message to the openSUSE board mailing list.

[opensuse-project] [gsoc] Weekly status report - MATE gstreamer project
by Michal Ratajsky 18 Jul '14

18 Jul '14

Hi, this is my twelfth weekly status report for my GSoc project. This week I did a bit of everything. I did more work on the MATE volume control application, libmatemixer received a load of updates, mainly in the PulseAudio code and I did preparations to extend libmatemixer with OSS support in the means of research, a BSD virtual machine and there is an initial skeleton code and build support in libmatemixer. While there are still some open issues in the volume control app and libmatemixer, for the next week I'd like to focus mainly on getting the OSS support to work. As I'm the kind of person who enjoys doing many things at once, I'll of course also keep testing everything and work on the open problems. I hope I'll be able to report a working OSS support with my next progress report. I have previously delayed pushing the changes on GitHub, but now everything is there: https://github.com/mratajsky/libmatemixer https://github.com/mratajsky/mate-media Thank you, Michal -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [GSoC] Weekly Report - Zorp LBaaS driver for OpenStack
by Péter Vörös 18 Jul '14

18 Jul '14

Hi all, This week I continued my work with the Zorp driver. I integrated it into neutron, and implemented the required driver functions. The driver cannot create the policy.py (which is like a configuration file for Zorp) yet, but it builds an XML, which I will generate the policy file from. In the next week I'd like to finalize the XML builder and start to write the policy generator. As before, you can always check my work at: https://github.com/VPetyaa/neutron Regards, Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] News from the chairman
by Vincent Untz 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Hi fellow Geeko-lovers, I'm coming to you with some news: due to some changes in my life (pretty good news, you'll hear about that in a couple of months), I've decided to step down from the chairman position of the openSUSE board. I'm stepping down with regrets because these two years as chairman have been totally awesome, and I would love to keep contributing to the project that way. But I know I won't have enough time to dedicate to being a chairman in the months to come, and I'm a strong believer that board members (including the chairman) should be active in their role. Having motivation is extremely important, of course, but free time is simply essential. It's been a fantastic experience to work with past and current board members (Henne, Manu, Will, Raymond, Bruno, Richard, Andrew, Robert and Kostas). Things are obviously not perfect, but I still feel we've made good progress: even though what the board is up to is not always visible from the outside, I do hope that the minutes of the regular board meetings help with this, and that concrete improvements such as the booth boxes or the local production reimbursement program help illustrate the actions of the board. All that doesn't mean you can't help the board :-) (for instance, don't hesitate to suggest ideas for hackathons!) In case there's any doubt, I won't be simply disappearing. I'll just find new ways to contribute to openSUSE in the free time that I will still have. Of course, we've been working on a transition and a new chairman has been appointed already. But I'll leave this bit of news to the openSUSE board... I can only say that I'm fully convinced that the new chairman will rock! :-) And that I'm confident that the current board is pushing in the right direction!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, As Vincent has just announced he has stepped down as the chairman of the openSUSE Board. We would like to thank Vincent for his contributions to the project and the openSUSE Board over the years and hope that in between changing diapers he will have some time to put his fingers on the keyboard and continue to contribute to the project. As hopefully everyone knows the chairman of the board is an appointed position. SUSE as the primary sponsor of our project has come to the conclusion that Richard Brown should be the new chairman of the board. Congratulations Richard. With the change in role for Richard his elected seat becomes vacant. We are discussing various options to fill the seat for the remaining 5 months until the next election, please stay tuned for an announcement in the next couple of weeks.

[opensuse-project] Conference archive
by Andrew Wafaa 16 Jul '14

16 Jul '14

Aloha, Is there a particular reason why we don't have an archive of previous conferences that is easily browse-able? As soon as a conference is over, the site is updated with the next event, which isn't unreasonable; the issue is that there is no way for someone to have a look at previous events and see topics etc, which may be of use for someone thinking of submitting a talk or even just attending. It also helps in getting sponsorship, as a prospective sponsor can see details of what their money will be helping. FOSDEM do a great job of having an archive - just append the year you are interested in and voila! If possible could we implement this soon as I'm trying to get sponsorship budget finalised for next year ;-) Thanks, Andy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] [GSoC 2014][MATE] Weekly report: ePub support in Atril
by avishkar-gupta 14 Jul '14

14 Jul '14

Hi community, Sorry for being a day late with the report, was feeling under the weather yesterday so didn't feel like writing one. So this week, now that I finally have depth knowledge of the large code base of Atril I re-factored the code to create an extended type with the WebKitWebView so that I may get rid of all the GTK errors. Must say it has been quite a learning experience. So as I was saying I re-factored the code so that now we have a new type to handle the webview and all its associated actions. Building on this I implemented the thumbnailer and I'm working on sidebar links today. I expect to work on the search and bookmark(link) features next week. I also skipped on Mathjax earlier, so I would be adding support for that this week as well. With only 5 weeks of coding remaining I hope to pick up the pace on the project so that I may be able to get it completed in time, and I'm trying my best to do the same. Search is a major feature that should be available and that would be my priority for the next week. As usual to follow the progress of the project see: https://github.com/rootavish/atril.git Cheers, Avishkar Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
