Hey Web team, I am very much interested in pursuing this idea in the time I have https://en.opensuse.org/Archive:GSOC_ideas_2013#Port_bento_to_twitter_boots… However, I am just a beginner, I can start doing this if I can get some help. -- Regards Manu Gupta -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-web+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] shame on forums
by Felix Miata 16 Apr '14

16 Apr '14

I normally try to avoid the rudeness that is the styling of most web forums, but as the openSUSE mailing lists have been slow lately, I thought I'd give one a go. I spent more than 15 minutes composing a thread reply[1], clicked the preview button, and for my effort was greeted with a message that my message was too short. All my work had disappeared into the ether. Web forums stink. So does JS, which often defeats the back button, and often empties textareas for no good reason.

[opensuse-web] bugzilla saved search editing
by Felix Miata 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

User preferences has saved searches: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=saved-searches When I click on it, then for a listed search I click on "edit": https://bugzilla.novell.com/query.cgi?chfieldto=Now&email1=mrmazda%40ij.net… That click opens the query. I make the necessary change, but there is nothing apparent to click on to save the change instead of running the query. Most of my saved searchs are invalid, because the incorporate the email address current at the time they were created, not the currently valid Bugzilla address. How do I fix these? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive." Proverbs 16:21 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

[opensuse-web] Terms of site
by Jan Papež (honyczek) 22 Feb '14

22 Feb '14

Hi, it would be great to update "Terms of site" (http://en.opensuse.org/Terms_of_site) wiki page. There still figure Novell. I'm preparing Czech translation and I'm not sure what to substitute under Novell, Inc. Should it be SUSE or openSUSE Project (according to openSUSE:License article)? Thanks. -- Jan Papež (honyczek) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-web+owner(a)opensuse.org

Re: [opensuse-web] https://bugzilla.novell.com/
by Ryan Wilson 13 Feb '14

I apologize if this is not the correct way to respond to this thread. I'm the Bugzilla developer for http://bugzilla.novell.com and I'd like to apologize for the lack of communication regarding this issue. Bugzilla does in fact use the Access Manager authentication system, meaning the same login through Bugzilla will get you into a number of services, such as the OpenSUSE forum. There is no persistence with the login for security reasons, though there has been discussions about increasing the length before a session timeout. >From what I can tell, bugzilla.redhat.com uses one of the built in authentication methods for Bugzilla, meaning all sessions are handled by Bugzilla itself. Bugzilla has, as this time, only two available session lengths: indefinite and browser session. Our Bugzilla configuration is currently set at browser session, but since Access Manager handles its own sessions, the actual login session length is under its control, so the browser session will lose its "logged in" status if the browser is on longer than that. Switching Bugzilla to indefinite session length would not fix this issue, as Access Manager's session length will still take precedence, resulting in an even more annoying situation for anyone using Bugzilla. I have been in talks with the Access Manager team to find solutions to these session timeouts, including decoupling the two timeouts, and we will be exploring these options shortly after we have completed upgrading the Bugzilla systems, which includes improvements to the Access Manager experience. I hope this information proves useful. Ryan Wilson Application Engineer II RyWilson(a)novell.com Attachmate | NetIQ | Novell | SUSE

[opensuse-web] https://bugzilla.novell.com/
by Felix Miata 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

That bug was originally filed at request of AJ here: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2012-03/msg00235.html More specifically: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=753203 "Please make Bugzilla easier on openSUSE users" paraphrasing comment 0 (for those lacking access): 1-multiple URLs for each bug bloat and clutter browser history 2-dismal login persistence This bug will be two years old next month, and has yet to draw its first comment. Part of its lack of attention is probably is that it is one of those secret bugs reachable only by Novell employees, which makes it akin to a chicken & egg problem. Lack of login persistence bothers me most. Login is a slow process, a problem of its own, like the slowness of bugzilla.novell.com generally. Since login needs to be repeated multiple times each day by those casually working through bug follow-up, it makes absence of persistence even more annoying. Novell's own bugs aren't reachable except to a limited audience anyway, so why does everyone working openSUSE bugs need to be subjected to rapid timeout? What exactly is the risk from having login last at least the duration of a browser session? Bugzilla.redhat.com doesn't impose such trouble on Fedora users. Why can't bugzilla.novell.com be at least somewhat like it? -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-web] Re: [opensuse-factory] Releases going forward
by agustin benito bethencourt 02 Feb '14

Hi, I sent this to the involved journalists yesterday.... Intro about who am I [...] 1.- SUSE has not only NOT decreased the number of SUSE employees working on openSUSE Release, but we have increased it. There is no plan to change that. 2.- We are not focusing our work in other areas. What we are doing is improving Factory, the integration phase of the openSUSE Release. 3.- Hence SUSE's compromise with the next openSUSE Releases has not changed. If you have any further questions regarding this issue, please do not hesitate to contact me by mail or visit our booth at FOSDEM.

[opensuse-web] software.opensuse.org error
by Haoxi Zhan 31 Jan '14

31 Jan '14

Hi, I am not sure whether I am sending to the right place or not. When I'm searching software in software.opensuse.org, there seems to be an error when the package is available in the official repo. The error information is: :"zh-CN" is not a valid locale If the package is only available through unofficial repos from OBS, the package information could be displayed correctly. However, if it's available in the official repo, this error will show up. - HZ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-web+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] Wiki search - proposal
by Christian Boltz 04 Dec '13

04 Dec '13

Hello, I'm starting a new thread to make sure everybody who is interested notices it ;-) You all know that we get quite some complaints (and/or complain ourself) about our wiki search because "it doesn't find the stuff". This is mostly caused by the fact that by default the search only lists pages in the main and Portal namespace. I propose to change the wiki search and the config of Lucene (the search engine used in the openSUSE wikis) to - search all (relevant) namespaces - use [Namespace-Boost] in lsearch-global.conf to boost the namespaces that we currently search (main and portal) The result will be that pages from main and portal namespace will still be the top-rated search results, with the (currently hidden) results from other namespaces below. Here's a list of the namespaces we use, together with the boost value I propose (1 means top rating, 0.0001 means it will be the last search result, - means not to include this namespace in the default search [1]) Boost Namespace number/name 1 0 Main 0.0005 1 Talk 0.005 2 User 0.001 3 User talk 0.6 4 Project ("openSUSE") 0.0005 5 Project talk 0.02 6 File 0.0005 7 File talk 0.005 8 MediaWiki - 9 MediaWiki talk 0.0005 10 Template - 11 Template talk 0.01 12 Help 0.0005 13 Help talk 0.02 14 Category 0.0005 15 Category talk 0.6 100 SDB 0.0005 101 SDB talk 1 102 Portal 0.0005 103 Portal talk 0.2 104 Archive 0.0005 105 Archive talk 0.2 106 HCL 0.0005 107 HCL talk - 110 Book - 111 Book talk - 122 Property - 123 Property talk - 126 Form - 127 Form talk - 128 Concept - 129 Concept talk - 420 Layer - 421 Layer talk Just in case you wonder about the numbers - they are based on what Wikipedia uses AFAIK: (0, 1) (1, 0.0005) (2, 0.005) (3, 0.001) (4, 0.01), (6, 0.02), (8, 0.005), (10, 0.0005), (12, 0.01), (14, 0.02) and adjusted to our needs (see for example the difference in the project namespace) I'd like to know - if you like this proposal in general, - if you agree with the list of namespaces to search by default, - if we want to include the talk pages in the default search and - if you agree with the boost value for each namespace In the meantime, I'll fetch some cable ties to tie up Henne - I'm sure he won't like the idea of including all those namespaces in the default search ;-)) Needless to say that we might need to finetune the boost values of some namespaces later (needs some testing with the real wiki content), but in general I think the above values will work much better than what we have now ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz [1] Nevertheless, we should set those namespaces to a boost value of 0.0001 in case someone includes them in the search -- > Status?
