Matrix Down
by Lars Vogdt 02 Dec '21

02 Dec '21

As you might have seen it on https://status.opensuse.org/ : the (synapse-)matrix service on matrix.o.o is currently down by intention. As the service configuration - and probably the whole setup - differs in comparison to the package containing the latest (security) fixes, we decided to turn the service off instead of risking anything. Now we're waiting for someone (you?) to update the service... Dear admins: please keep your services up-to date and secure all the time. We are already trying our best to keep the underlying OS up to date for you. But that does not help, if the admins of the services are not doing their job. Our current infrastructure policy[1] hasn't changed since 2020. So there shouldn't be anything new in it for our admins. -> please follow the rules. Regards, Lars [1]: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Infrastructure_policy

Thanks for reacting so quickly! Am 27. November 2021 14:20:20 UTC schrieb Sasi Olin <hellcp(a)mailbox.org>: >I just checked it, and security updates weren't being applied either, the machine keeps filling up with logs, so even zypper ref didn't work to fetch what the machine needed to stay secure. That might be indeed another reason why the scanner yelled... But sorry, why is the machine still logging so much? Debug logs on a productive machine do not only have the side effect to fill up the space, they also slow down and might even be GDPR relevant, if they log too much (haven't checked that, tho).

by ddemaio 17 Nov '21

Hi Heroes, You might be aware or even provided some feedback to the proposal we were working on about software.o.o. We had a workshop this past Friday and in the workshop, an action item was brought up to contact you all about how you envision any involvement an enhanced software.o.o.. I've attached a link to notes from our workshop and an update of the proposal. Would you all want access to the deployment? Knowing this could assist with what the technical solution will be should we get resources to move forward with this project. Please let me know so I can update the proposal. v/r Doug Workshop - https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/softwareworkshop Link to proposal - https://etherpad.opensuse.org/p/softwareproposal

Just a heads-up - these were generally being held back by mailman, "implicit destination". I don't know if anyone is actually interested, but I'm letting them through, also some older ones. Adjust your sieve filters :-) -- Per Jessen, Zürich (8.3°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes

Hi all, There appears to be some sort of issue with weblate syncing with opensuse.org. The landing page on github shows the change, but it is not syncing for some reason. Can someone take a look at it. Here is the issue https://github.com/openSUSE/landing-page/commit/ae5a6afdd9a04428f9603f163ec… v/r Doug
