Re: [opensuse-web] Re: berlios shutdown - move to gitorious

Please keep the opensuse front page and the wiki as svn repositories as well, if at all possible. As you may remember, we use subversion to update the material on all of the servers, and none of them have git installed. It would be much easier on us to keep them on subversion. >>> Juergen Weigert 10/05/11 4:25 AM >>> On Oct 05, 11 11:59:42 +0200, Thomas Schmidt wrote: > As Berlios.de will be shutting down all services at the end of the year, we need to move out our > infrastructure and translation repositories from there. > > I went through the infrastructure projects, and migrated the active ones to gitorious: > > www.opensuse.org frontpage: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/www_opensuse_org.git > > wiki: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/wiki_opensuse_org.git > > shop.opensuse.org: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/shop_opensuse_org.git > > party: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/party_o_o.git > > news.opensuse.org: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/news_o_o.git > > lizards.opensuse.org: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/lizards_o_o.git > > help.opensuse.org: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/help_o_o.git > > apparmor.opensuse.org: > git@gitorious.org:opensuse/apparmor_o_o.git > > > There are some folders where I'm not sure if they are in use, and where the owners would like to put them: > > license.o.o please also to gitorious. > documentation/ documentation/release-notes-opensuse/ is in use. It is currently being updated to reflect 12.1 This could be become part of the opensuse-doc repo, and move with it. svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/opensuse-doc also needs a new home.

Since That's why I opened this thread in the opensuse-web mailing list as well, but no one has replied there as yet. > I'm staff on the forums, I can try to get that addressed if I can > reproduce the issue. Those two bugs are web site bugs. If you have power to alter the site, then whoever has the power to give you access to those two bugs needs to do so. They contain the foundation of my complaint. Incompetence was a word choice that applies to the web generally, not specifically to opensuse.org. Competently designed web sites don't induce users to use heroic measures to compensate for stupid and rude site styles, such as those described in those two bugs and in http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/css.txt which contains the entirety of the highly burdensome 155k+ of opensuse.org CSS saved to disk as web page complete with Gecko from http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/install-boot-log…. https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=454975 shows what 408396-cups-deamon-not-accessable.html looks like on one of my systems without any rudeness countermeasures applied. The dominant text size is a small fraction of the UA's UI text size, which is a smaller size than the UA's default size, for a net result of painful to use, if not totally illegible. My need to return to various opensuse.org pages on a recurring basis makes temporary defenses like minimum text size and zoom worse than sub-optimal. So, I use site specific user styles as a long term defense mechanism. The current version of user CSS applied specifically to the site consists of http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/opensusebase.css and http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/opensusemb.css, in conjunction with my generic user CSS at http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/userContent.css, and are necessary to have a chance to reproduce. Reproduction should not be necessary to correction, as no user defenses would be necessary at all if both those two bugs and the broader problem they describe were fixed and remained so across site facelifts. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

After seeing "unable to open listen socket for address ::1:631 - Address family not supported by protocol" in /var/log/cups/error_log, Google told me goto http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/install-boot-log… and http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:GDI_Printers to figure out why I can't print with my Canon GDI, but instead of help I just see the incompetent results of incompetent site styles: http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/opensuseforumsmess01.jpg Can someone please fix the openSUSE web sites to use browser defaults instead of mousetype so that this kind of mess doesn't keep happening? I've been trying off & on in 11.4 & 12.1 since last winter to make my IP printer work, but it refuses to print except for the YaST2 test page, or PDFs from Okular. All other apps tried, and this is on multiple puters, fail to even wake up the printer, much less print. Until the last driver update, the printer would wake up, but display an error instead of printing. Apps tried are mostly various Gwenview, Firefox, SeaMonkey & Konqueror versions. Months ago I filed https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=683476 and later http://www.cups.org/str.php?L3916 in hopes of eventually being able to print in something newer than 11.2. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Cups/gx280/121/ contains logs from today's attempts on one machine with 12.1B1. I opened the printer's IP in Konqueror, but nothing there seems able to help with this. IPV6 is disabled in YaST, and cmdline includes ipv6.disable=1. /etc/hosts includes 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.

[opensuse-web] Time to fix opensuse.org landing page
by Rajko M. 28 Sep '11

28 Sep '11

Time to fix link conference announce image. User noticed that link on http://www.opensuse.org/en/ is still pointing to http://conference.opensuse.org/ . BTW, we are short distance from new release and text on http://www.opensuse.org/en/ still has section: openSUSE 11.4 - A New Hallmark For The openSUSE Project Users Directory points to the http://users.opensuse.org/ . The redirection to https://connect.opensuse.org/ is meant for other web pages and links in the corners of our web space. There is no link where users can provide feedback. Good willing users will post message somewhere on the web, hoping that it will find the way to right persons, which will appear in google results without answer and give another notion that openSUSE doesn't care. It seems that moving openSUSE landing page from wiki, or wiki like server, was not all that good idea, after all. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-web+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] forums: scrolling for code output
by Felix Miata 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

http://fm.no-ip.com/SS/opensuseforumscroll01.png shows the problem I'd like to see fixed. Setting a minimum font size to enforce legible text is the immediate cause of the scroller, but the page can and should be restyled so this doesn't happen. Better yet, respect visitors by making the text big enough it the first place, so that the minimum size needn't be put into play. e.g. s/body{font:13px/1.231 arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif;*font-size:small;*font:x-small}/body{font:100%/1.231 arial,helvetica,clean,sans-serif;*font-size:medium;*font:medium}/ in main-rollup.css. Also, leave the newlines that are in the source in the files actually used by the pages, so that hunting down this kind of trouble's root isn't so difficult. The compaction offered by stripping them pales in comparison to the absurd weight of the css files overall, totalling over 150kbytes on the page I was looking at: http://forums.opensuse.org/forums/english/get-technical-help-here/install-b… -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

[opensuse-web] open build service web-page
by Henne Vogelsang 23 May '11

23 May '11

Hey, as some of you might already have heard the build service folks are going to rename the openSUSE Build Service to Open Build Service (OBS) to gain some traction in the wider FOSS community. So de-couple the OBS a bit from openSUSE branding and messaging wise. Currently Adrian has some web-page draft based loosely on bento but we all agree that we should also use something else to distinguish the OBS visually, not only in the name. So this is your chance to do something and leave your impression on one of our high value sub-projects! We're looking for simple product page for the OBS. Content is already there and is still being a bit refined by the marketing team so the only thing we're missing is form. So get out your CSS/HTML editor and take charge of openbuildservice.org and make it awesome! Preliminary stuff is on gitorious[1] and we would like to deploy it from there. http://gitorious.org/opensuse/open-build-service_org Oh and remember to have a lot of Fun doing it ;) Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE.

We have traditionally upgraded all our blogs and wikis on a quarterly schedule. We have tried to be more responsive to get new updates out right away, but we just don't have the time to do it in this manner. However, I am planning on moving the blogs into WP's version control. This will allow me to fully script the upgrades for all of the blogs, allowing me to do it in minutes instead of hours. The community may have to be patient with me on this one, since it will take some time to move all of Novell and openSUSE blogs into version control and we are very short on resources at the moment. Once I have this done, we should be much more responsive to updates. >My proposal is to use Serendipity ("S9Y", http://www.s9y.org/).

Again, keep in mind that due to the resource issues mentioned above, we are only handling critical issues at the moment. It may take us awhile to get to anything else.

[opensuse-web] Alternative layout
by Pieter De Decker 26 Feb '11

26 Feb '11

Hi all, I've prepared an alternative layout for the new site that is based on the existing draft at http://suseware.com/trial/extended.php. I put it together in about 30 minutes, so it doesn't look as sleek as I want it to be but it's just a proof of concept. You can find my version here: http://www.pieterdedecker.be/tmp/opensuse/ Basically, I've moved the "Download/Help/Developer tools" links to the top of the page to make room for a wide banner. To fill this space, I'd suggest a rotating slideshow that shows off some of openSUSE's features. Let me know what you think. Cheers, Pieter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-web+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-web] Waiting for the static.opensuse.org ?

Waiting for the static.opensuse.org is the most frequent reason that makes page load slow. Is there any way to improve communication with static? -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-web+help(a)opensuse.org
