Hello Fabian,
Thank you for emailing the openSUSE Project about hardware donations.
The terms of the agreement for a donation can be found at
https://en.opensuse.org/images/f/f1/Equipment-Donation-Agreement.pdf. It
should answer all of the questions. The shipping should be covered by
the donating company. There is no receipt issued and a warranty is not
necessary.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to email us.
v/r
Doug

Hi guys
As I told you some weeks ago, I would have less time in 2018 for the
openSUSE heroes. So the following should not be too problematic - even
if it is not really what I wanted.
As I got multiple complains from the openSUSE release management and
parts of the openSUSE board about "my behavior" (no, sorry, I will not
go into details here), it's time for me to take the consequences and get
out of their way.
The decision is not easy for me, as infrastructure administration is
always my baby - and especially the openSUSE infrastructure was part of
my life now for many, many years. But time goes by and - as well
as people - things change. So I decided to step back in this area for
now and give others a chance.
I've currently still 7 tickets open in progress.o.o - and some stuff in
bugzilla.o.o assigned to me, that I will finish, if nobody objects. But
please do not assign new tickets to me any longer.
As mentioned before: I will not refuse to help if the openSUSE heroes
need me - but I will no longer pro-actively drive things or maintain
the infrastructure - and remove my permissions as soon as possible.
Regarding the meeting in March: if nobody else volunteers, my offer
still stands to organize it. But please understand that I don't want to
participate in the meeting under the current circumstances.
It was always a pleasure for me to work with you, guys. You ROCK!
with kind regards,
Lars

That's indeed right, and it's definitely a good idea to stick to
master (even though our master goes intense development at times, so
things might change quickly there).
I'd like to see the PR merged, let's see if we can work on it soon :)

Thanks for sharing.
Indeed some work is required to merge these upstream. I see they are a
lot of commits ahead, and a lot of commits behind. So this isn't very
simple any more.
Also some of their commits might not be relevant to the upstream
project, or are not being merged to our upstream (ie commits changing
old migrations is just a couple that I know of, but they were
introduced before a PR was opened. This should work just fine on OSEM
master as well, without those changes.).
I worked a lot with Eugene when he opened the PRs in the past. I will
be happy to do so again.
I also wonder if *all* of their changes are in
https://github.com/commandprompt/osem-pg/

Have you checked
https://github.com/openSUSE/osem/pull/1610 and
https://github.com/openSUSE/osem/pull/1624 ?
Is this what you are looking for?

They have already contributed some new features (introduced postgresql
support in OSEM, multiple speakers per event, new event creation from
admin side).
We have talked with them, and they know we would be happy to get more
PRs with the changes they did (they have done some serious work on how
things look).

Hi all,
sorry for my very looooooong delay, but I had quite a ToDo list the last
days.
Here comes my suggestion - as discussed with Douglas and our Engineers -
for the network cards.
I hope an Amazon.com - Link is okay for you.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UT63TKI
Alternatively - depending on your financial / accounting - if you want
to buy directly in EU and just pay the invoice - and avoid customs foo
(as these cards are needed in Nuremberg datacenter) - you could use a
German supplier (below) with almost same conditions regarding price.
https://www.future-x.de/lenovo-emulex-oce14102-ux-l-netzwerkadapter-pcie-30…
Regarding the server - I will talk to Doug again to get latest state.
Thanks for your help in advance, if I can help somehow with the
purchase, don't hesitate to ask.
Best regards,
Thorsten Bro
