Outage Notification - 2008-06-16 03:00 UTC
by Mike McGrath 13 Jun '08

13 Jun '08

There will be an outage starting at 2008-06-16 03:00 UTC, which will last approximately 1 hour. To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2008-06-16 03:00 UTC' Affected Services: Websites (wiki only) Smolts.org Cacti Unaffected Services: CVS / Source Control Buildsystem Database DNS Mail Torrent Ticket Link: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/623#preview Reason for Outage: The new db1 is installed and ready. This is our primary mysql database and backup for postgres. The OS and storage has already been prepared. Its just a matter of making db1 unavailable, doing a dump, copy, import and IP rename. I expect things to go smoothly as there are no major changes other than hardware. Contact Information: Please join #fedora-admin in irc.freenode.net or respond to this email to track the status of this outage.

hello people,
by Lokesh Chakka 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

hello people, I am Lokesh from INDIA. With the view of contributing some code to the open source, I joined in to this group. I thought I have to contribute atleast some thing and not just using the freely available resources. I am working as a developer since while and I am comfortable with programming in C/C++ (only). Because I am holding a job, I may not be able to give huge amount of my time. But to some extent or as early as possible, I will complete the work. One more thing is that, I am very much new to these forums. I don't know much how to proceed. Please guide me. so if any body is interested in utilising my services, they can contact me. -- Ch.L.V.Kumar

Introduction - Steve Dickinson
by Douglas Dickinson 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

Hello everyone, My name is Steve Dickinson, a user and lover of all things Linux/UNIX. I just joined up yesterday and look forward to interacting with the team while also contributing in any way I can. I've always wanted to make contributions and give back to Linux. I hold one degree in Software Engineering and I am about 3 months away from finishing up my undergrad in Computer Science. My day job consists of working for a market research company as a Systems and Applications Developer mainly using Perl. It really has been a Jack Of All Trades role though, involving many other technologies including Red Hat Linux (and many *nixes), Apache, C, CVS, SQL, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bash, etc. I've been with this company for almost 12 years now. Sometime last year I received my LPIC level 1 certification for Linux administration. Once I achieved this goal I became a part-time Linux Administrator for a web-hosting company. The direction I would like to go is to gain more experience on the Linux administration side of things with a mix of Perl/C development. I have been a big supporter of Linux for years now with an undying belief in the open source movement and how IMHO it can change the world in many other areas as well. At home I enjoy administering my own Linux/UNIX boxes (Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, NetBSD, FreeBSD, Darwin) for the experience and fun of it! If you see me around feel free to give me a shout! My nick in IRC and the fedora project is "dsdickinson". I'm excited about joining the team and look forward to making new friends and expanding my knowledge of Linux.

Outage Notification: ALL system 2008-06-10 21:30 UTC
by Seth Vidal 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

There was an outage starting at 2008-06-10 21:30 UTC, which lasted about 15 minutes. To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2008-06-10 21:30 UTC' Affected Services: All systems - depending on caches Unaffected Services: Ticket Link: Reason for Outage: Migrating a domain to a different domain registrar a mistake was made in the domain request. The fedoraproject.org domain was migrated to a domain registrar that does not have any dns zone files for fedoraproject.org. The mistake was caught and corrected within 10 minutes of it happening. Some places may see dns resolution issues if their registrar has not caught up or expired a cache. Simply waiting a bit longer should correct the problem if a user cannot reach any of the fedoraproject.org hosts or services. Contact Information: Please join #fedora-admin in irc.freenode.net or respond to this email to track the status of this outage.

We'd like to see new pages adhere to a new structure, and to have groups begin moving existing pages to a new structure. We're working on the details of the structure at [[Help:Wiki Structure]]: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Help:Wiki_Structure * Flat namespaces: Docs/SecurityGuide => Security_Guide * Categories: Docs/Drafts/GetInvolvedGuide => Get_Involved_Guide in Category:Draft_Documentation, then moved to Category:Documentation when complete One thing we've been tossing back and forth is how to deal with the two distinct audiences to the wiki: end-users and contributors. One argument is categorize and create ways to keep from duplicate naming problems. For example, adding (SIG) on the end of SIG pages. Another idea is to use Namespace:Foo, that is, create a new MediaWiki "Namespace" that sorts content into a separated part of the wiki. This removes the content from the index for the site Namespace (FedoraProject:). This might make sense in some cases, e.g. QA: for all the QA test plans. I don't think we want to sequester SIG or subProject content in that way. One reason we used directory-like hierarchy in the past was to make it "easier" to find pages. MediaWiki has a good search mechanism, but AFAICT it needs spaces "_" in page names to find words in titles. Regardless, it's going to do a better job of helping people find content than the MoinMoin search did. Another view point is that we don't want to hide contributor content from end-users, but it would help if we, for example, put a badge on end-user focused pages so it was clear "this is for help with using Fedora." That can be easily done with a template, cf. [[Template:Move]] for an idea of how it works. - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Sr. Developer Community Mgr.

Wiki URL Structure (Proposed Change)
by Nigel Jones 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

Okay, so for the last X years http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ would take you directly to the wiki, but I'd like to propose that this changes. Why? Simple reason, i18n/l10n Moin Moin gave us the easy ability of having all languages in the one wiki installation, Mediawiki doesn't, the proposed solution is a one-wiki-per-language setup, as such the proposed URL structure is fedoraproject.org/XX/wiki which fits into the whole fedoraproject.org/XX/ fedoraproject.org/XX/get-fedora way of things. The change would involve mod_rewriting /wiki/Foo to /en/wiki/Foo it should be pretty simple but it could potentially be controversial (apparently some people don't like their bookmarks becoming 302s :) This would be implemented when the testing on internationalising the wiki is done (say 1-3 weeks) and/or when the db1 switch over happens (I'm not sure on the date). Thoughts, Comments and Suggestions are welcome! - Nigel

Fwd: [Trac-dev] Genshi 0.5 released (Transformer heads up for Trac plugin authors)
by Jeffrey Ollie 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

I've pshed Genshi 0.5 into Rawhide (should appear tomorrow). I've been using it locally on some CentOS and Fedora boxes with good success (even with some TG apps I use in-house) but I don't want to break any of the Fedora apps if I don't have to. So, I'll hold off on pushing Genshi 0.5 into anything but Rawhide until we can test the Fedora apps... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Alec Thomas <alec(a)swapoff.org> Date: Mon, Jun 9, 2008 at 8:34 AM Subject: [Trac-dev] Genshi 0.5 released (Transformer heads up for Trac plugin authors) To: trac-dev(a)googlegroups.com Genshi 0.5 has been released! But the reason for this mail is just a heads up about the Transformer filter. I made some much-needed changes [1] to the Transformer filter that *may* affect Trac plugins that use it. It's unlikely, but just in case you notice odd changes in behaviour, this change could be the culprit. As a sample, Vote, Tags and Hackergotchi all worked fine. Changeset description reproduced here for convenience: - Content-insertion transformations (before, after, etc.) now accept a callable. - .prepend() now only operates on elements. Previously it also operated on OUTSIDE marked events. - Where it makes sense, transformations are now consistently applied to individually selected objects in the document, rather than on any contiguous selection. This means that adjacent selected elements will be treated individually rather than as a whole. - Transformations should now consistently work on the context node. - .substitute() now defaults to a count of 0 (ie. all) rather than 1. This is to be consistent with Python's regex substitution. - ATTR events now have a kind of ATTR in addition to having this as their mark. - Added the BREAK mark. This allows cuts of otherwise seamlessly joined objects to be operated on. - Added a full test suite.

Infrastructure Secondary Offerings
by Mike McGrath 09 Jun '08

09 Jun '08

So one of the things that has made Fedora's Infrastructure successful is the amount of time we spend getting configs together and tested _before_ we go live with them. Often times re-doing things from scratch multiple times. This works well in our shared app environment. They're in puppet, the people involved understand it. This is a very high barrier but in our case, it's completely worth it. However.... We do, regularly, have people request hosting from us for various open source projects. Some people just want a place to host something. I'd think these individuals would support these hosts outside of Fedora's normal realm. So question 1) Should Fedora get in the business of providing (probably xen guests) to other projects? I'd love to say yes, but there are many concerns in terms of IP space, security, security, liability, and security. Comment, please. -Mike
