[Debconf-discuss] Thank you!
Hi! (Mail will appear a bit later than creation date of it, cause no WLAN atm.) I thank you for "Creating a new environment for newcomers" and "New to Debconf" BOFs yesterday. I thought "Wow, this is much on Debconf", thought being overwhelmed. There especially the story by vagrant helped me about even shutting down at times on his first DebConf. I appear to be highly sensitive – at least its a check, check, check, check for me on questionaires regarding HSP –, I perceive much, I take in much and so it is a lot of new impressions for me and I may have been shortly before shutting down myself yesterday. Also the mentoring of the month thing Andreas mentioned: I thought I could use something like this. Even on a smaller scale of working on my existing packages while being able to ask questions where I am stuck. So now I feel motivation again to unstuck some of my packaging work I left alone after having felt frustrated about some experiences I had during the high phase of systemd related discussions after which I even unsubscribed from debian-devel (still unsubscribed there). I didn´t work on Debian packaging since then. I already started to find out that even after all my experiences I still see Debian as the distro I prefer, want to use and want to contribute too, but I am now also slowly realizing that Debian as a project of people may be more inclusive of inviting new people to it than I thought and that my impressions I got from mailing list participation are just a part of the picture and may very well be biased by the way of communicating there. That my work doesn´t need to be perfect initially and I am invited to just ask about ways to improve it. I will do so in another mail. So I intent to work on my packages again since a long time. Between talks and the phases of rest I intend to grant myself to process everything. Ideally I want to become a DM regarding these packages, of course working in a team where it makes sense (like together with Marc on atop). So for this mail: Just thank you! I am happy I decided to challenge myself to go to DebConf with one week of meeting people in person I may have build some preconceptions through mailing list communications before. So thank you to Andreas, Francesca and Enrico, but also to all the members of the organization and video team for making DebConf possible. Thank you, -- Martin ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
[Debconf-discuss] BOF for working on existing packages?
Hi! I think I saw a BOF for working on new packages in the schedule sometime I mostly could attend, except for a smaller talk I would like to attend to at the beginning of it (no WLAN here and I don´t want to switch on smartphone with mobile network here atm). Yet I think I didn´t found any BOF to work on existing packages. I am stuck with several packages for various reasons and I want to tackle what I right now perceive as obstacles. I detail now and maybe there is a workshop where I can bring this in or maybe if I am at some time between talks trying to hack on things someone may be able and willing to help. fio: I just found out yesterday that I again messed up my gbp packaging repository with somehow having merged debian packagaging master branch to upstream branch with now a "debian" directory in it and a merge conflict. I had an attempt at solving this, but still get merge conflict on importing new upstream version. I thought I finally got how gbp works, but now I again freaked out with it. fsmark: I am stuck with upstream wanting a native package, but on request of previous sponsors I made it a gbp one with different branches for packaging and upstream. distkeys: We are upstream of this. I really want to get this in and meanwhile made it work with newer ruby with the help of someone from german ruby IRC channel. I still think it provides some value even with puppet and other configuration management systems in Debian. Its scope isn´t config management but distributing public SSH keys on lots of machines at one. And it can do so for machines behind firewalls by automatically creating SSH local post forwardings to access them. We basically maintain all of the SSH keys of own machines and customer machines with it. It can update the machines of one customer in one go. I will maintain upstream and the packaging of it anyway, but I´d love to see this in Debian. atop: Help Marc Haber with updating atop packaging. I got packaged 2.1 version, but I was stuck with atopacctd daemon not working well. I think this may have been fixed in latest atop 2.2. I want to import it and see from there, and also clear up any questions related to systemd service files. I created some, but atop also has some. Ideally I would also like to create netatop and netatop-dkms packages, but packaging a kernel module appears challenging to me. filebench: This was stuck over licensing questions in the past, but I think after some updating of the packaging, may well be ready to be uploaded. I´d really like to find ways to move forward with all of these packages, one package at a time. All this work is up on github.com/teamix (some are also on alioth).

[Debconf-discuss] Crypto Currency, Finance and BitCoin BoF - 18:00, Stockholm (Adhoc)
I've put this session on the ad-hoc noticeboard by the registration desk The session is open to anybody who wants to discuss anything relating to these topics As a free software operating system, Debian clearly has advantages that make it relevant for these types of activities, whether it is mainstream financial software or alternative topics like crypto-currency and Bitcoin.

Given that 18:00 isn't good for you and that it may be hard to fit all these things in one session (as I also have some finance things that are not specific to Bitcoin), I would suggest having a different BoF specifically for something like "Alternative uses of the BitCoin blockchain" or "Alternative uses of BitCoin concepts".

Here's something simple that seems to work:
1. Fix Joey Hess' script to output html that seems to be better
tolerated by some tools (attached)
2. You should change the number of columns at the top of the script to
something that suits your device (I used 2, it was originally 12).
3. Create the HTML using the haskell script. Do not do the UTF8 iconv
step, the dc15 ksp text file is already in UTF8. Modify the HTML in a
text editor if you want to add sha information, etc.
4. Use firefox to fill the form, and SAVE TO PDF to record it. Worked
on my old android device just fine. Test it a bit to ensure it works,
just in case.
The saved PDF should have the checkboxes filled (test it to ensure it
works!). You will need to OCR it later or manually process that PDF,
just like if you had used paper.
Alternatively, write a consumer for Joey Hess form and feed it to caff
to skip the OCR/manual process, if you're feeling like it ;-)
Futher corrections to the script and procedure are quite welcome!

Dear all, the server we're using for DHCP, some routing, and other random services has died for the second time within thirteen hours. We will move away services from it, but that means we will once again impact connectivity. We may or may not end up upgrading the software on the wireless access controllers while we're at it, which would lead to an additional downtime of 30-60 minutes, but we will avoid that if we can. We will let you know if we do.

Well, if enough care is taken, it could be acceptable to have some cheese cut in advance : any kind of hard cheese such as Beaufort, Gruyère (the real Swiss one, not the fake bad French), Tome (or Tomme), can easily survive without drying after being cut. So, if that may help the C&W team, I wouldn't object and call for a TC vote about the bad behaviour of the cheese master, his deputy cheese mistress and all their cheese minions.
