Hi all, the YaST portal http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:YaST contains a link to the YaST team members. All members should have a user page in the wiki. If you don't have a page yet, please create one (short description who you are and what you are working on). The accounts shown on http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST_team might be wrong. Put in your correct account (means bugzilla account) and create the user page by clicking on the link. Greetings Gabi -- Gabriele Mohr SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstr. 5 Tel: +49 911 740 53 362 90409 Nürnberg Email: gs(a)suse.de ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] RFC: Google Summer of Code 2011 ideas
by Martin Vidner 01 Mar '11

01 Mar '11

Hi, prompted by Miska, Pavol, and Stano, I've been thinking how YaST can take part in GSoC, under the openSUSE umbrella. This is not finished, but I am being distracted by bugs so here is what I have so far for inspiration and discussion. Google starts accepting organization applications on Monday. For http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:GSOC_2011_Ideas == YaST === Template: Idea Name Abstract '''Required knowledge:''' '''Skill level:''' '''Mentor:''' [[User:foo|Foo Bar]] '''Student:''' STUDENT NEEDED === Use Augeas in YaST back-end [http://augeas.net/ Augeas] is a library to parse and write configuration files, using a generic mechanism driven by grammars ("lenses"). YaST has been using "agents" for this task, some of them also configurable, though in a more limited way. ==== Ambitious goal: replace all parser agents by Augeas lenses. ==== Medium goal: replace the major agents by Augeas The major agents include ag_ini and ag_any. ==== Small goal: replace a couple of agents by Augeas Choose some agents for the pilot. The majority of the project would be infrastructure: binding Augeas to the YaST library so that it can be easily used from the YCP language. '''Required knowledge:''' C++ for binding A to Y (? maybe unnecessary, could go via py/rb/pl); learn a little YCP '''Skill level:''' '''Mentor:''' [[User:Mvidner|Martin Vidner]] (feel free to replace me) '''Student:''' STUDENT NEEDED === Separate libyui yast2-libyui is still coupled to YaST too much. Make it a truly standalone project. === Do the whole Amaranth (But we want to work on that too at the same time. What part is well separated?) -- Martin Vidner, YaST developer http://en.opensuse.org/User:Mvidner Kuracke oddeleni v restauraci je jako fekalni oddeleni v bazenu

[yast-devel] opensuse wiki

Hi all, I have checked the wiki URLs (http://en.opensuse.org) which are mentioned in the YaST sources. Since the new opensuse wiki is started some links haven't been available any longer. If I have found the page in the new wiki I have created a redirect (most important probably http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST which is shown in an installation error popup). I have also copied several pages from the old wiki to the new one and have created the redirect. The YaST modules containing wiki URLs are listed below. I suggest that the following should be done: * For redirected pages the old URL should be replaced by the new one (to be able to clean up the wiki in future). * If the page is not availabale in the new wiki, please copy the content from old-en.opensuse.org (if still valid) to the new wiki, create the redirect (if info is important) and mention the new URL in the module. yast2-country ------------- ./country/package/org.opensuse.yast.modules.yapi.time.policy: <vendor_url>http://en.opensuse.org/YAST</vendor_url> ./country/package/org.opensuse.yast.modules.yapi.language.policy: <vendor_url>http://en.opensuse.org/YAST</vendor_url> -> redirected to: http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:YaST yast2-phone-services -------------------- ./phone-services/src/phone-services/fax.ycp: //http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Style_Guide#Table_with_Buttons ./phone-services/src/phone-services/answering_machine.ycp: //http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Style_Guide#Table_with_Buttons -> YaST/Style_Guide redirected to: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST_style_guide yast2-autoinstallation ---------------------- ./autoinstallation/doc/KDumpSection.xml: the <ulink url="http://en.opensuse.org/Kdump">openSUSE Kdump documentation</ulink>. -> page NOT found in new wiki yast2-product-creator --------------------- ./product-creator/src/ProductCreator.ycp: * see http://en.opensuse.org/Secure_Installation_Sources -> page NOT found in new wiki yast2-devtools -------------- ./devtools/devtools/bin/yastdoc: # http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/yastdoc -> page NOT found in new wiki yast2-scanner ------------- ./sacnner/src/dialogs.ycp: // According to http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/ Style_Guide#Single_Configuration.2FOverview.2FEdit_Dialog ./scanner/src/dialogs.ycp: // According to http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/ Style_Guide#Configuration_Wizard -> YaST/Style_Guide redirected to: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST_style_guide ./scanner/src/dialogs.ycp: // http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Development/ Printer_Enhancement#Basic_Implementation_Principles: -> page NOT found in new wiki yast2-core ---------- ./core/liby2/src/genericfrontend.cc: * Visit our web site at : http://en.opensuse.org/YaST or #yast on irc.freenode.net -> redirected to: http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:YaST yast2 ----- ./yast2/library/wizard/src/Wizard.ycp: * http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/ Style_Guide#Single_Configuration.2FOverview.2FEdit_Dialog -> YaST/Style_Guide redirected to: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:YaST_style_guide ./yast2/library/network/src/SuSEFirewallServices.ycp: // See also http://en.opensuse.org/SuSEfirewall2/ Service_Definitions_Added_via_Packages -> SuSEfirewall2/Service_Definitions_Added_via_Packages NOT found -> http://en.opensuse.org/SuSEfirewall2 exists ./yast2/library/control/src/ProductControl.ycp: _("http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST") ./yast2/library/control/src/InstError.ycp: _("http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST") -> redirected to: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Report_a_YaST_bug yast2-pkg-bindings ------------------ ./pkg-bindings/src/Target.cc: y2warning("Pkg::TargetLogfile() is obsoleted, the log file is now entirely handled by libzypp. See http://en.opensuse.org/Libzypp /Package_History");
