[yast-devel] Generic / Repo-specific READMEs at GitHub
by Lukas Ocilka 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

Hi, When Christopher was in Prague, a few of us had a brainstorming about the need of having devel-documentation placed directly in a Yast/libstorage/linuxrc repository. There are no doubts that it's one of the most important parts of projects hosted at GitHub. All their howtos mention "create README[.md]" as the very first step. In fact, we'll have new hires in the team and in such situations, good documentation is one of the most important parts. Good documentation goes from very high level to lower and lower level. We have already summarized that in Yast Team Challenges, but the summary doesn't belong to this document as it's too detailed. That's why I'm putting it here as a WIP item and deleting it from that document: --- cut --- The README should at least describe the steps needed for maintenance (for a person without expert knowledge in the area) including: * What is the project good for - what does it actually do (and how), what it cannot do (unsupported scenarios), limitations * Links to the documentation, high level and low level descriptions (e.g. RFC, wikipedia articles, man pages, project documentation, openSUSE wiki), terminology * How to fetch the source code (if something outside Git is needed it should be mentioned) * What prerequisites are needed to build the sources (external libraries, gems, scripts, …) * How to build the sources (make/rake commands…) * How to setup a testing environment (e.g. iSCSI target for iSCSI client) * How to run the code to test a change (esp. needed for non trivial projects like linuxrc) * How to run automated tests * How to build a package for submission * How to submit the package (if it needs some manual steps) * Troubleshooting (how to solve typical problems) The README should be reasonably short, if some section is too long it should be moved to a separate document (or to GitHub wiki) and linked. --- cut --- The project consists of - Taking a decision where to go - How to get there - Implementing this important documentation Those two who, according to my knowledge, were working on this were Ladislav and Christopher, but there were not the only ones and a pilot project for READMEs has been done a few months ago by Martin. It's still not finished, but moving forward.

[yast-devel] Services UI strikes back
by Ancor Gonzalez Sosa 15 May '15

15 May '15

Last week we implemented a prototype of a reusable component to manage services in YaST modules and applied it to yast-dns-server. So I updated the infamous "YaST service management" document[1] to show the two alternatives of usage of the new component. Feedback (from UI expert or anybody else) is appreciated so we can decide which option (labeled "A" and "B") in the document is better in general. The first page of the document is unchanged, so you can skip it if you already know the problem. Cheers.

[yast-devel] Switching features to "Ready" vs SCRUM
by Lukas Ocilka 30 Apr '15

30 Apr '15

Hi, Today we had a discussion about switching features to state "Ready" when they are entering the sprint. In fact, I cannot do that as FATE requires me to assign a developer to it first. But in SCRUM people take tasks when they have time for them, which is definitely "after" sprint planning. So, what do you suggest to do? I could assign myself as a developer and for some features, I could assign a random/specific developer. On the other hand, in SCRUM "EVERYONE" in the team is responsible for delivering these selected tasks, so I should assign virtually everyone from the team. Any better ideas?

[yast-devel] What has been added to YaST during last year?
by Josef Reidinger 27 Apr '15

27 Apr '15

Hi, I am starting to prepare presentation for opensuse conference and one of my presentation is what is new in yast from user perspective. Now I have two topics I would like to talk about: yast2-journal and yast2-docker . Do you have more changes that are visible for opensuse ( so no SLE only modules like cio or migration ) users?
