Meeting Minutes

Bugzilla permissions

-- Christian Boltz

Currently, several bugs are not "open" because they are SLES bugs etc. This is annoying in several cases (bugs marked as duplicate, listed on "most annoying bugs" page etc.).

opening all SLES bugs isn't possible - some of them contain confidentialy data from novell partners

non-technical solution: remind people to open as much bugs as possible by moving them to "SUSE Linux"

Action item skh
- ask the bugzilla screening team to open SLES/novellonly bugs if possible

idea of a partly-technical solution: display a reminder "the duplicate had more open permissions - please consider opening this one too" when marking a bug as duplicate...

Action item cboltz:
- ask the bugzilla team (via bugzilla ;-) if this is possible -> bug 155846

Action item skh:
- assign bug 155846 to the bugzilla team
- ask the bugzilla team if we can make the product bugzilla open for everyone

CDB/HCL - hardware database efforts

--the_dude

the CDB is currently not maintained
there is a plan to revive it under the opensuse.org umbrella
in the mean time, contribution to the HCL is helpful
the laptop team needs the HCL for their work

Cleanup old Action Items

Mailing lists

postponed to after 10.1

Mirrors

Action Item henne:

Discuss mirror situation in opensuse@opensuse.org [ongoing/done?]
Involve ftpadmin@suse in the discussion

Action item henne:
- put that to the tasks page

turing reported a mirror admin was confused between ftp.suse.com / ftp.opensuse.org data

Action item turing:
- post the posting about this confusion to opensuse

FOSDEM review, built service

discuss how we can make the drpmsync service better
help in the documentation process, extending http://en.opensuse.org/How_to_setup_a_drpmsync_server

schiele gave a talk about that at FOSDEM
mirror servers won't need to run a drpmsync deamon
the ideas are done, the implementation isn't
schiele and mls will work on the implementation together

Action item mls:
- put drpmsync to a public svn repository

put torrents to the wiki

obviously pending because 10.1 final is not released yet

Handling of Action Items

--Christian Boltz

Should open Action Items be handled in a bugzilla component or a wiki page?

advantages of bugzilla:

you can follow the status
you receive mails on changes
you can give tasks to other people easily
you can postpone them ("LATER")
no Action item can get "lost"
easier to use / query / sort
prefered by most participiants

advantages of a "open Action Items" wiki page:

it's one list (instead of several bugs)
less overhead
you can add/edit several items in a single edit step
prefered by AdrianS

do we need the "open Action Items" in the wiki (given we use bugzilla for them)?

duplicates work if otherwise handled in bugzilla
could be done with a (to be written) wiki plugin (bugzilla provides search results as XML etc.)
not really necessary - a link to a bugzilla search would be OK also

Decision:

track open Action Items with a wiki page for two weeks
then do it two weeks using bugzilla

Action Item adrianS_:
- create the wiki page and the action-item category in bugzilla
- maintain the "open Action Items" wiki page

SUSE Linux 10.1'in Durumu

Olmadı çünkü Andreas Jaeger'ın zamanı yoktu.

Additional Wiki Languages

The openSUSE community would like a status update on the implementation of additional wiki languages, as several additional languages have now met the minimum number of pages required for translated pages (see Translation Status). Can the status update specifically clarify the following points:

Are the only requirements for adding a wiki the translation of the pages listed as required on the OpenSUSE Translation Guide, and a willing maintainer?
On an ongoing basis when a translation team has translated the minimum required pages, what is the expected time frame of wiki creation? Can it be a monthly or bi-monthly task to create wikis for languages that meet the criteria?
Is posting to opensuse-wiki the correct place to request a new wiki (as currently stated in the guide), or should bugzilla be used?

--Pflodo

Is there any planned way to control foreign langage wikis? I don't really like censorship, but how can I only guess if the chinese wiki (only an example) speaks about openSUSE or anything else? how will be the sysop trusted? I think there is no real problem for langages at least understood by some Novell persons, but for others? see the turkish problem seen on the list?

--Jdd sysop

- The only requirements for the creation of addional language wikis are:
  - The translation of the required pages as listed in the OpenSUSE Translation Guide
  - A willing moderator.
- The correct location to request additional wikis are on the opensuse-wiki mailing list.
- Time from request to launch of additional wiki: 2-4 weeks.
