Hi all, Knut and me have submitted a proposal about an AutoYaST workshop for the openSUSE Conference '18. We would like to start preparing the workshop as soon as possible, although we do not know whether the proposal is accepted or not yet. We have listed a set of related topic[1] (we won't cover all of them). Obviously, we will need Schubi to help us to prepare the workshop (thanks!) and, if anybody else is interested, we would like to hear their opinions. # Abstract: AutoYaST has been around for a couple of years now, but perhaps it is not well known to part of the openSUSE community. This tool, which allows to perform unattended installations of open(SUSE) systems, is extensively used by SUSE (including customers and partners). Actually, products like SUSE Manager or CaaSP (or Kubic, its Tumbleweed based flavor) take advantage of AutoYaST. During this workshop, attendees will take a tour through the most prominent AutoYaST features, studying (and implementing) some typical use cases. Moreover, they will learn what to do when things go wrong and how to extend and tweak AutoYaST to make it fit their needs. We will spend some time checking recent changes like chrony and firewalld support or the latest improvements regarding to the new YaST storage layer. And, of course, we will have a look at the future of AutoYaST. So if you are interested what AutoYaST can do for you, do not hesitate to join us!
