[opensuse-project] RC1 announcement and PackageKit
by Cristian Morales Vega 10 Feb '13

10 Feb '13

https://news.opensuse.org/2013/02/07/heat-up-our-servers-12-3-rc1-is-ready-… "Major release allows transactions to be parallelized for better performance. The libzypp backend used by openSUSE was completely rewritten around the new API, allowing a lot of old ugly bugs to be shown the door." Makes readers think the "rewritten libzypp backend" actually "allows transactions to be parallelized". But the code says: /** * We do not pretend we're thread safe when all we do is having a huge mutex */ gboolean pk_backend_supports_parallelization (PkBackend *backend) { return FALSE; } -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] Slow redirector?
by Will Stephenson 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

Downloads and obs build package fetches seem to be very slow between packages, but quick once a package starts to arrive. Is this an indicator that the redirector is lagging?

[opensuse-project] Board meeting minutes
by Robert Schweikert 04 Feb '13

04 Feb '13

Hi, Your openSUSE Board had the first board meeting in the new year on Monday January 28, 2013. Please find below the meeting minutes. If you have any questions please feel free to post to this thread or send them directly to the board mailing list. These minutes are also available on the wiki: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meeting Board Meeting 01/28/2013: Present: Vincent, Ray, Andrew, Will, Robert 1.) Regular call schedule: This time appears to work for everyone, thus we will stick with : Monday at 10:00 A.M. EST, 16:00 CEST, 15:00 UTC Call every other week, cancel if not needed AI: Vincent setup automatic reminder. 2.) Board communication Communication on the list has been slow at times. We agree that everyone should respond to messages on the board mailing list within 3 days. If someone is traveling or not able to respond in a timely fashion the team member will notify the list accordingly. 3.) Board action and interaction to community During recent election campaign and prior to the campaign community voiced concern about visibility of the board within the community. Board Activities page is considered useful by everyone and a good communication tool to the community. We currently do not see the need to have a shared action item tracker. The goal is to reach a level of cohesion within the team such that when a board member is away someone else can step in upon request. We commit to have public board meeting minutes. Board will post minutes to a wiki within 3 day of the meeting. AI: Robert will announce the activities page to the -project list this week 4.) Mediation request The board has been asked to mediate a misunderstanding. Action has been taken and the consensus is to let things rest for a while and see how they play out. AI: Robert send follow message to involved parties in about 4 weeks. 5.) Face to Face meeting of the board We agree tat a face to face meeting would be very useful and that waiting until oSC13 is a bit too far out. We will try and arrange a meeting on the weekend of April 6 & 7 in the Nuremberg office. AI: All members provide travel cost estimates to Vincent AI: Vincent discuss budget with SUSE 6.) Andrew has found a HW sponsorship opportunity There is an opportunity for the project to get a considerable donation in HW for the openSUSE infrastructure. Review of the current process and some discussions revealed that we probably need to review our sponsorship documents. AI: Andrew follow up with sponsor to understand their expectations 7.) Hackfest The recent Hackfest was mostly organized by the openSUSE team at SUSE. It is the desire to have a number of Hackfests throughout the year. However, the openSUSE team at SUSE would prefer the events be organized by the community. We did not come to a conclusion on a good approach to this topic. The board itself cannot organize such events as we would quickly be overwhelmed. This is a topic for the next board meeting. Meeting concludes 11:05 EST Next meeting February 11, 2013 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org
