[opensuse-project] help promote oSC14
by Jos Poortvliet 21 Mar '14

21 Mar '14

Hi all! Many of you have not yet booked for oSC14. I hope that is because you can't come due to work or other things, not because of money (the TSP will do another round) or because you didn't know... To make sure that that last point won't limit others to come, help us promote the event, talk about it! https://news.opensuse.org/2014/03/21/help-promote-osc14/ oSC is THE place where you get to meet fellow openSUSE contributors, where you can discuss difficult technical or social issues - or of course FUN technical and social things. New ideas have emerged at openSUSE conferences before - including Tumbleweed and, well, pretty much every major change in our development process has been discussed at an oSC. If you want to make a difference or just have fun - this really is the place to be. And you should REALLY hurry up registering, booking, sending in session proposals if you have some and making sure you are there because flights are getting more expensive and so are hotel bookings. Have fun! /Jos

[opensuse-project] [GSoC-2014] Introducing Myself
by Varad Gautam 20 Mar '14

20 Mar '14

Hi! I'm a student from India interested in participating in Google Summer of Code-2014 with openSUSE. I am interested in working on on the "Integrate Windows NTFS shadow volume browsing into openSUSE GUI tools" [1] idea. I've downloaded and used libvshadow through the command line. I got in touch with Greg Freemyer and packaged libewf through osc, as suggested by him to get a hang of how openSUSE development process works [2]. Can the idea of integrating Snapper Snapshot browsing into openSUSE Desktop [3] be integrated with the same idea? There could be a snapshot handling framework built into the desktop tool that could take care of both Snapper snapshots and Shadow Volumes. What else can I look into to get more acquainted with the community / development process? -My background- I have programmed with C, Perl, Python, Processing and Shell Scripts. I built a game for the Intel Perceptual Computing Challenge-2013 [4] and have experience with development for the Beagleboard and Pandaboard. I have also been able to write simple character device drivers for Linux, using Greg K-H's Linux Device Drivers as a guide. I have been an open source user for a long time, and have a commit integrated into GNOME's Anjuta IDE [5] I recently worked on testing the effectiveness of random number generators on a virtual machine with qemu.[6] I also have a fair know-how of git.
