Ask Fedora enhancements and fixes
by Rahul Sundaram 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Hi With the recent update to Askbot, there has been a number of offlist discussions related to Ask Fedora and I wanted to summarize what I think needs to be done and some points to discuss * Multi-language support: This is a very commonly requested feature. Need to set ASKBOT_MULTILINGUAL=True Requires Django 1.4 or higher. I assume the Django modules that Askbot depends on needs to require Django 1.4 as well. * Enable sub groups aka meta.ask.fedoraproject.org We need to test this in the staging instance first * Local user support A few users don't want to use openid. Should we enable local user? What are the security implications of that? * Integrate FAS support: Currently its not obvious that one can use their FAS account to login and we need to make this a prominent option * Fedora theme: I don't know the status of this. * Tinymce Django module is broken. It will be nice to get this fixed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=845890 If anyone wants to work on bugs and feature requests, I have a whole bunch of them. Upstream is looking for help http://askbot.org/en/questions/scope:all/sort:activity-desc/tags:askfedora/… Some of them like the ability to mark a particular question as duplicate of another is sorely needed Rahul

Hello support We lost access to internetx01 earlier today. No response from serial console. No idea what the problem is. Please reboot or let us know what issues may be involved internetx01.fedoraproject.org has address 85.236.55.4 Thank you Stephen Smoogen -- Stephen J Smoogen.

fedoraproject on GitHub
by Aurelien Bompard 03 Mar '13

03 Mar '13

Hey, At FUDCon when we opened the fedora-infra GitHub group account, we checked what was available and both fedora & fedoraproject were already taken, but unused. At that time I took the liberty of contacting GitHub to see if they were OK to give us back the handle for fedoraproject, since it had no repos. They just got back to me and deleted the fedoraproject account, so I could open a new one. I've added the usual suspects as group admins. I don't know if you want to move repos over to this account (it should be pretty easy, just create the repo, change the remote and push), but in any case I think it's good that it now belongs to us.

DNSSEC repos.fedorapeople DLV
by Erinn Looney-Triggs 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

It looks like fedorapeople.org is validated using dlv.isc.org, you might want to change this now that .org is signed: http://dnsviz.net/d/fedorapeople.org/dnssec/ However, it also looks like repos.fedorapeople.org is unsigned (http://dnsviz.net/d/repos.fedorapeople.org/dnssec/) if I am understanding this correctly, in fact it looks like all *.fedorapeople.org objects are unsigned, or something else is broken, which means that anyone validating using DNSSEC (and there aren't many of us) is unable to visit those pages. I am a subscriber to the digest only so it may take me some time to reply unless you cc me. -Erinn

ansible musings...
by Kevin Fenzi 01 Mar '13

01 Mar '13

Greetings. The upstream ansible folks have been discussing a 'best practices' doc at: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/docsite/rst/bestpractices.rst and I have been pondering how we want to setup things on our ansible instance before we add a bunch more things to it. So, some outstanding questions for comment/discussion: a) I think I like the idea of splitting out per role trees for things. But we need to decide what level of granularity a 'role' is. For example, mirrormanager in puppet is a single module. However, it's really: mirrormanager proxy setup files mirrormanager mirrorlist server web app mirrormanager web app (the admin part) mirrormanager backend scripts (crawler, creating lists, etc) So, for our purposes should we have mirrormanager all in the same 'role' tree? or should we split it out by functionality? Many roles won't have this issue, as they will be simpler. b) What would be the workflow for staging with ansible? Ie, I want to make some config changes only in staging and iron them out and then merge them back to production when ready. Do we copy the role and modify? Do we require only changing vars and seperate files? Will be thinking on it more, but input welcome. kevin
