I will most probably not be back in time for the meeting tomorrow, so
here is a short status of what I have been up to -
--- mirrorbrain routeviews
ever since pontifex was upgraded last year, the daily update of
routeviews wasn't working. The script downloaded ipv4 and ipv6 data,
and the latter could not be loaded into the database, so all updates
were ignored. It's working now, but I have some updates that need
pushing back into the repo.
--- mirror tickets - you will all have seen them :-)
We basically had some 90 dead/inactive mirrors, more or less. Many were
picked up by scanning the rsync logs, so we have no contacts and no
commitment.
I have written to most of them asking about their status.
Judging by mirrors.o.o, other mirrors appear to be active, but only
carry e.g. Leap15.0 and have long stopped synchronizing. I'll start on
those later.
--- forums migration
you have probably all read some of the discussion here on the list.
My stance remains the same - I would prefer a quick and dirty solution,
de-coupling us from MF-IT, and leaving us time to work on doing it
properly. Doing any more and still meeting the deadline would mean
more pressure on me, and I cannot guarantee to have the time.
Issues remaining -
* need SLE12SP5 installed on a VM
* database export still pending
* SSO integration
Until Jim Henderson enlightened me last week, I thought the forums were
more or less stand-alone. I was not aware that the login credentials
are under SSO control in Provo. I will need some help understanding
this and working out a solution.
