-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 12.3 has yast created entries like: FW_DEV_EXT='eth0' but default entries in the same file use double quotes. Is this intentional or a bug in YaST? (question placed in factory list because I'd like to reach the devs, thus here) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 12.3 x86_64 "Dartmouth" at Telcontar) - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse-project] board meeting minutes
by Robert Schweikert 07 Jun '13

07 Jun '13

Hi all, It appears that since the Face to Face meeting in early April the world has gone a bit crazy. All of us have been extremely busy, more than usual, and there have been vacations and holidays intermingled as well. The early May (6th of May) board meeting was canceled as most members were not available. Therefore, there were no minutes. We did have meetings mid May and earlier this week. The minutes of the past two board meetings are now posted on the wiki: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meeting#Meeting_2013-05-20 https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_meeting#Meeting_2013-06-03 Thus, although you have not heard from us in a little while (sorry about that), we are still alive and well ;) and have not fallen off the face of the planet. Speaking about the Planet, work on getting Planet back into a well maintained state is still ongoing and we have not forgotten about it. As always, if you have questions or concerns please respond to this thread or send a message directly to the board mailing list. Enjoy, Your openSUSE Board -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-project] OBS Discussion System GSoC 2013 project update for week ending on 05/31/2013
by Shayon Mukherjee 06 Jun '13

06 Jun '13

Hello folks, So, here is my first GSoC 2013 update. From now on, every monday, I will be updating you all about the progress I am making on - Building a Discussion System for OBS Q. What have I done last week? Well I got the good news about my GSoC 2013 acceptance last week itself (feel free to congratulate me ;). So, haven't made whole lot of progress. Though these two comings weeks (until June 17th) are the community bonding period, where students get to know mentors, read documentation, get up to speed to begin working on their projects. That being said, 1. I am discusig with mentor about the working methods for the current GSoC project. 2. The kind of Resources I have available for the entire coding period. 3. Finalized on meeting times. We are meeting everyday at 15:00CEST (Monday through Friday) to make sure both are on the same page and the mentor gets a deeper look into my workings. 4. Initiated a Trello discussion[1] board where we follow the Kanban's method of development. Its open to public, so feel free to peak into it and pass your suggestions anytime during the coming months. 5. As per my proposal, two of my caveats were writing tests for the code and the openSUSE Hermes integration. Past week I started with learning testing methods in Ruby on Rails. Q. What am I'm doing this week? 1. Going to continue improve my skills with Test Driven Development,i.e, read and hack more on Ruby on Rails testing methods and practices. 2. Deploy openSUSE Hermes on my machine. And start playing around with it. Make sure I am comfortable getting around it and prepare myself accordingly for the project. 3. Come up with To-do lists as much as I can. So the mentor and everybody else interested knows what is coming next. (Note: this is an ongoing process.) 4. Discuss with my mentor and re-work on the technical timeline. Because, I will be traveling for the openSUSE Conference 2013 in July and another city in my home country, which at the time of proposal submission wasn't accounted for. Expect an update on the same next week. Q. What I couldn't achieve and Why? 1. None yet ! Once again, feel free to pass on any comments, suggestions, criticism or feedback you got. I am all eyes and ears ;). Important links [1] Trello: https://trello.com/board/discussion-system/51a5ede2db062a7e6f001b7c Github fork: https://github.com/shayonj/open-build-service Cheer!
