[opensuse-project] openFATE process
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 14 Jan '10

14 Jan '10

Hi, very rarely I'm looking into openFATE just out of curiosity and so I found at least one feature request which affects me directly. So I'm wondering how the process is supposed to work? I somehow expect that I would have never seen the feature request and therefore I pretty much doubt that somebody ever would have looked into it at all. Who makes sure to route the stuff to the right persons? How do these people know who the right persons are?

[opensuse-project] bugzilla.opensuse.org - where should it redirect to?
by Andreas Jaeger 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

I have a bug report against our infrastructure that asks to have bugzilla.opensuse.org a valid host name. For details see: http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549585 I'm aware of these two options a) point bugzilla.o.o directly to bugzilla.novell.com b) point bugzilla.o.o to bugs.opensuse.org Using a) is what most people would expect, directly going to bugzilla. On the other hand I expect that new people enter bugzilla.o.o and option b) would show them good information on how bugs are handled inside openSUSE. I think it's reasonable to do this and like to hear whether anybody has strong arguments on what to do, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, Program Manager openSUSE, aj(a){novell.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi | Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

[opensuse-project] Team Meetings publishing
by Sascha 'saigkill' Manns 09 Jan '10

09 Jan '10

Hello Mates, as one of the Weekly News Team, i would like to propose, that we're using the Eventcalendar from news.o.o more. Our Script fetches all possible Entrys, and we can publish that into our Weekly News. So, if you know an next Meeting, just drop this into the Calendar. So the whole Community knows that too. -- Sincerely yours Sascha Manns openSUSE Community & Support Agent openSUSE Marketing Team Blog: http://saigkill.wordpress.com Web: http://www.open-slx.de (openSUSE Box Support German) Web: http://www.open-slx.com (openSUSE Box Support English) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Browser startup homepage
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 09 Jan '10

09 Jan '10

Hi, I would like to bring up a discussion again about what the browser startpage should be. I'm not convinced about the current startpage itself and also its integration into the browser (mainly Firefox in my case obviously). Our current startpage is: http://www.opensuse.org/ Compare that with other distributions and the original Firefox startpage: http://start.ubuntu.com/9.10/ http://www.google.de/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official (this is where it ends up from a mozilla.com redirect) http://start.fedoraproject.org/ I agree with all the others that a global web search should be on that startpage and it should be pretty simple. Our current startpage only invites people to change it anyway IMHO. What do others think about it? >From a technical perspective I'm planning to change the Firefox startpage to load a local document which decides what page to load dependent on the online status because currently only an error page is displayed if Firefox is started offline with the current start page. I'm mentioning that explicitely because it would be nice if someone could design a page which should be shown when offline.
