It's a newly reported bug (reported earlier today), but there are
implications to threading in the forums for users who upgrade to 13.1 and
use NNTP to access the forums.
There's a bug in libgmime 2.6.16 through 2.6.18 (2.6.18 is what comes
with 13.1) that incorrectly wraps the References: header, causing
misthreading of posts on the server.
libgmime 2.6.19 is reported to have the fix. I've built this on obs and
am testing it now, but the issue was found on the bsd platform several
months ago, and it is fixed upstream - so all we need is an official
build of 2.6.19 in the update channel.
The bug number on bnc (including links to relevant discussion on the pan-
users mailing list, the RFC that the build violates, and the bug on the
GNOME bug tracker) is 855023:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855023
I realize that I just opened the bug today so it probably just hasn't
been reviewed yet, but I wanted to raise awareness since we use NNTP in
our forum community, and this has the potential to create confusion in
those discussions (indeed, it already has with posts I've made using the
broken library).
Thanks,
Jim

Hi,
Actually, there is nothing in the short version of the minutes, but the
meeting was very long with a good discussion about the whole "where
we're going" topic.
Feel free to read the log:

Cheers,

Hi,
since it is right now possible to take a breath between the waves of
planning I like to share a thought.
In the last mails we read a couple of good ideas especially around the
distro which are worth to think about and act upon. We also seem to
widely agree that a bit more "innovation" would be cool.
Topic examples:
- Gaming on openSUSE
- Clouding with openSUSE
- Free Communication, as in "No, thanks, I don't use M$ Skype, but
connect my using XYZ on openSUSE".
- Documentation ideas
- more
All of these ideas would now require more investigation and _work_ to
get it into Factory etc. pp. We need experts for each of the topics,
which we seem to have, and people who want to learn, help and finally
contribute.
I often think that the missing link seems to be that somebody says:
"Hey, I wonna work on 'Gaming on openSUSE', this is the rough idea, how
about you help me and we have fun on this?" and people who do not feel
able to start such a "big" topic themselves but are interested can say:
"Well, yes, sure, if there would be a task for me..." That is what
worked in the past.
So I wonder if there is anything how we could help this process to work
better in our community. These let's call them 'interest-groups' exist,
sometimes as one-man shows, but are they visible enough? Can, for
example, somebody who would like to spent a little bit of time helping
somewhere, find the spots where help is needed? Has ever somebody called
for help in openSUSE? How would one do that?
I wonder if this can somehow be improved.
What do you think?
Klaas

Dear Izabel,
+1
As I imagine and planning, next year I will handle other openSUSE
activities and responsibilities that will make me a little bit out of
the artwork team in general. But as I believe and you had previoulsly
mentioned artwork must be very closer with the marketing activities so
I realized that beeing part of this new Marketing generation (as I
could say like that) will be a great opportunity to me to keep
contributing with the artwork but again not in general artwork but
more focused on the Marketing field.
So, In case you guys (marketing ppl) need someone from artwork focused
on marketing, I'm stepping and I also voltunteer myself to be part of
this new marketing structure contributing with my artwork skills and
experiences around the openSUSE "identity" and marketing area
Goo luck for this new initiative and congratulations for have being
rising some good topics and points like you did.

I have to STRONGLY disagree with this, when we had the program, we had
people sending in reports, you had a good sense of what was going on.
So the Ambassador was doing a great job. We welcome them, gave them
support, explain how to market. I haven't see any of that lately.
It would be nice to have the group so that we can again go out spread
the word, get people involve, help them out. Hell, we don't really
have a CM to be honest. I thought Jos was, but I don't see him doing
that much, if you have a strong Community Manager, then you will have
a strong community. I see

There are a lot of that are doing stuff all the time, I not sure who
you mean by seasonal. I didn't know we had seasonal helpers, I thought
everyone helped out when they can.

Tomas fixed the search engine meanwhile. Now the correct chapter should

Good point. I am currently not sure how to implement a full set of correct deep link
redirects. One option is to harvest the apache logs and implement what is
being used most.

Hey All
Thanks a lot for such an interesting session this year for GSoC. If
you have any feedback
for us, please let us know.
Next thing, we wanted to do was a call for admins, have one more to
our team, while we did pretty ok, but we will have less time in the
next year. If anyone who has been with us for the past and will like
to help us (this also includes other orgs), it will be great.
We want to organize both GSoC and GCI for the coming session, so I
hope we maybe able to manage well amongst ourselves.
Any kind of input is very much welcome

Dear openSUSE users,
on
http://lists.rosenauer.org/pipermail/evergreen/2013-November/001333.html
Stefan Lijewski of the Evergreen team announced that he will no longer
prepare patches for openSUSE 11.2, to better focus on 11.4 and the
upcoming 13.1-Evergreen.
This is after releasing 600 Evergreen security patches, which extended
the life of 11.2 to 4 years.
I think, this is quite impressive and want to thank Stefan for his
efforts.
Ciao
