Migrating to our own bugzilla instance.
by Jóhann B. Guðmundsson 24 Sep '13

24 Sep '13

Greetings I think it's time that we start putting some effort into both discussing and migrating away from sharing bugzilla instance with Red Hat. For the first should we migrate all issues from the RH bugzilla to keep history or should we simply declare a flag day and from that point on everybody will be using the new bug tracker Secondly do people have any option on which bug tracker we should migrate to as in should we stick to mozilla's bugzilla or should we use something else?

Hi Fedora Community, My name is Yi Ning Chen (irc: ynchen) from Boston and I would like to join the Fedora Infrastructure Team. I have been using Fedora for a few years and have acquired a RHCE certificate. I have interned and volunteered at the Free Software Foundation. I helped setup their Status.net instance at http://status.fsf.org I would like to gain more experience as a system administrator. I have used Puppet, Openstack, and some Ruby scripting, and would like to gain more professional experiences in them, but I'm open to working with anything, especially bleeding-edge technology. I can contribute about 8+ hours per day. Thanks Yi

Hi, I have two questions about playbooks: Copr-fe-dev currently runs on EL6, if I want to change it to F19 - is this the way I should change the playbook? diff --git a/playbooks/hosts/copr-fe-dev.cloud.fedoraproject.org.yml b/playbooks/hosts/copr-fe-dev.cloud.fedoraproject.org.yml index 7b07582..ec7f5f1 100644 --- a/playbooks/hosts/copr-fe-dev.cloud.fedoraproject.org.yml +++ b/playbooks/hosts/copr-fe-dev.cloud.fedoraproject.org.yml @@ -6,6 +6,8 @@ vars_files: - /srv/web/infra/ansible/vars/global.yml - ${private}/vars.yml + vars: + - image: $f19_qcow_id tasks: - include: $tasks/persistent_cloud.yml And what is ${private}/vars.yml?

Updated totpcgi version with support for token reprovisioning
by Konstantin Ryabitsev 23 Sep '13

23 Sep '13

Hi, all: I released a new version of totpcgi today, which adds support for token reprovisioning. It's a most commonly requested feature and supports issuing a new token if you still have access to either your old device, or to the scratch codes. I've only really tested it with file-based backend, and since I know Fedora uses db-based backend, it would be good to test it out, too. I just completed "fedpkg update" for it, so it should be showing up in epel-testing soon. I'll be happy to answer any questions or help troubleshoot anything. There are no changes to the core totp cgi that should affect the custom ubikey stuff we put in last year, but buyer beware and test! :) Best, -- Konstantin Ryabitsev LinuxFoundation.org Montréal, Québec

Maintaining decorum on Ask Fedora: suspensions/bans
by Ankur Sinha 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Hi, The person here[1]: - is hot tempered - rants more than he provides information - has used abusive language On #fedora, such behaviour gets a quiet/temporary ban/permanent ban in that order. How is this to be applied to Ask Fedora? I had really hoped that users would have the common sense to maintain decorum on ask, but we will come across the isolated case from time to time. So, I'd like to document the decorum policies and suspension criteria etc. for the future. * At the moment, the only accounts I block are spammers. [1] https://ask.fedoraproject.org/question/32433/backing-up-home-directory-from… -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur (FranciscoD) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Join Fedora! Come talk to us! http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Join_SIG

Meeting Agenda Item: Introduction Chris Roberts
by Chris Roberts 19 Sep '13

19 Sep '13

Hi, my name is Chris Roberts and I live in Toledo, Ohio. EST Timezone. My Fedora Account System (FAS) username is chrisroberts, and my IRC nick is croberts. I learned about the Fedora Infrastructure team through the wiki page and through talking to Nirik about the wiki. Niriki said in the future the wiki backend will go from MySQL to Postgresql. I am hoping by that time I can be part of that project or at least be able to offer some helpful advice :) My skills, which I bring to the Fedora Infrastructure is 2.5 years of Wiki experience both user and admin. Currently I am one of the Fedora wiki administrators, and have been working on improving the user experience and the search functionality. I am also one of the administrators of the wiki that is used internally at my day job for a local ISP, where I have worked in improving search functionality. Thanks, Chris Roberts
