Hi, Can you please let me know whether GSoC students who have got sponsorship, have to follow same procedure for reimbursement?

[Debconf-discuss] Group photo *today* at 16:00
Just another reminder via another channel - today we will be taking the group photo of Debconf15. It promises to be the largest yet, so make sure to be there and help make that as large as possible! Please gather in the grass behind the Heidelberg talk rooms (also know as the stonehedge area) as soon as talks finish. The talkmeisters will be instructed to finish them no later than 15:50. Please be in the talk rooms or near them around that time to catch the wave of people. If you go to your room or to a quiet hacklab or to some other insulated corner of the venue it is almost guaranteed that you will miss the group photo. Unfortunately this year it is basically impossible to patch in any latecomers into the photo, due to location and timing constrains, so make sure to be there and be there in time! Also - please keep movement to a minimum while the group photo is being taken. One thing that creates a lot of manual work every year is people turning their heads during the process - stitching software does not understand that, you just end up a two headed monster. We average 12-15 such heads every year :D. Takes hours to fix. It is likely to be 21C outside, please consider that you might have to stand there for 20 minutes. If you can get cold, then put on something a bit warmer right now. There will be not time to change then. ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

[Debconf-discuss] Update: Schedule for mobile now always up to date :)
Hi everyone, I have updated the service a bit. First of all the memorizable link for people who don't have it yet: bit.do/debconf15schedule The very good news is: The schedule is **always up to date** now - yay! The server regularly fetches the XML export from Summit (every 5 mins) thanks to a cron job. But even better: The app in the web browser also reloads the data every 5 minutes. It will silently refresh in the background. If that doesn't succeed, you will still have the old data until you have internet access again, so you can still use it offline. The sources are on GitHub: https://github.com/orangecms/conf-schedule If you like, feel free to fork and send PRs. Feedback is always welcome!

The Multiarch/Crossbuild/Bootstrap/Toolchain minisprint is from 11:00 to 16:00 today (in Stockholm). We have split it up into sections so that if you are only interested in some aspect (e.g crossbuilding) you can come at a relevant time. I hope this more-or-less works for people. The schedule entry has been updated with info: https://summit.debconf.org/debconf15/meeting/239/multiarch-bootstrap-crossbuilding/ But the summary is: Multiarch issues 11:00-12:30 Lunch 12:30-13:00 Crossbuilding 13:00-15:00 Crosstoolchains 15:00-16:00 Several things cross these boundaries but we will do our best to keep the discussion somewhat segmented. The Multiarch part will be somewhat abstruse, and primarily of interest to those working on relevant tools, but for the Crossbuilding/tolchain parts input from anyone who is actually using these tools is very welcome whilst we talk about what still needs work.

So if you have kids around who you are fine with having in such a photo, and think they might want to do it, please get in touch with me NOW. Otherwise I'll randomly choose someone else. Also, the photo will be taken in close approximation with the regular group photo, so either wear that shirt to the group photo directly, or at least have it around for being able to put it on probably afterwards and stay around for that special photo!

[Debconf-discuss] SCAP security guide and tools BoF (automatic verification of security configuration)
BoF at 14:00 in room Madrid ! Short: Debian doesn't provide a security guide in SCAP format, let's fix that. Long: SCAP guides are really nice for users because it's really easy "audit" (evaluate) one or many systems. Also, SCAP security guides can contain multiple profiles (Server, Desktop, Virtualisation Host...). Those profiles can further be customized by the user: enable/disable some checks, adjust threshold... The XML results can be also be converted in some nice HTML file with explanation, reference and remediation hints. The XML file could even be used for automatic remediation. In this BoF, I would like to discuss with interested parties on what should be done, how to do it, what should be supported, etc. I have grabbed some ideas/todo/pitfalls on this wiki pages: https://wiki.debian.org/SCAPGuide Franklin See: http://www.open-scap.org https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_Content_Automation_Protocol Security guides: https://fedorahosted.org/scap-security-guide/ (maintained) https://fedorahosted.org/sce-community-content/ (inactive since 2013) ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

[Debconf-discuss] FPGA firmware hacking?
Hi, Is anyone interested in developing FOSS firmware for FPGAs? If so, I have a whole bunch of FPGA development boards with me at DebConf for people to play with. I have roughly 5-6 boards of different shapes and sizes with both Xilinx and Altera boards. Should we set up a hacking area to get some stuff done? Getting started with FPGAs can be quite daunting because a lot of the stuff is still "in the stone age" but I'm happy to help people get through the hurdles. Sadly, at the moment FPGA development does require the use of proprietary tools but there are some smart people working on solving that problem - http://hackaday.com/2015/07/28/open-source-fpga-toolchain-builds-cpu/. My main interest in developing FOSS firmware for FPGAs is to develop fully open source video capture hardware for live streaming of user groups and FOSS conferences like DebConf (the main reason I'm here at DebConf is to chat with your video team). The project is called the hdmi2usb.tv and is part of a larger video capturing project called TimVideos (see code.timvideos.us). Looking forward to doing some coding with you all!

[Debconf-discuss] Help with packaging stuff from TimVideos project (including FOSS hardware firmware)
Hi, I was wondering if anyone had the time to help me figure out the correct way to package my TimVideos project components to get included in Debian? A list of things we are trying to package can be found at https://github.com/timvideos/streaming-system/wiki/Debian-Packaging. I've never been very good at doing packaging myself and quite a few of the projects have complicated dependencies that I don't really know how to deal with. For example, * The fpgalink tool has a custom tool chain and needs to cross compile firmware for the 8051. * How to deal with our port of flumotion to gstreamer 1.0 when upstream is "dead". * One project needs a gcc compiled with support for the lm32 processor.

I admit I like your route and I would join it under normal physical conditions but there are people (including me currently who prefer some more relaxed bicycling). Since it seems that the bicycle-sharing does not work out we need to rent some bicycles first. The bicycle rental is at the railway station and opens at 10:00. So it might make sense to start at 10:00+time_to_rent bikes at the railwaystation - at least for those who like to join the "more relaxed tour". Thomas Lange by chance went the tour that is vaguely in my mind via the castle, following a suggested bicycle trail through the wood to Neckargmünd and go back on the other side of the Neckar. This short trip leaves a lot time for sightseeing under way. Please also make sure you bring your swimming suits. If I find something to jump in under way I'll do so. :-) See you tomorrow Andreas.

Thanks for the pointer it is actually quite similar to what I considered. However, I would definitely go into the opposite direction. This would mean the hilly part in the begining so we see whether everybody will manage or whether we should rather find an alternative route instead. So if you agree with the start at 10:00+x from railway station condition and go in direction castle first we could go together. In case the castle "climb" might show serious problems for some attendees we could split up groups again.

[Debconf-discuss] My comments on "Debian in corporate IT" bof
Hello all, It was pretty interesting session. Thanks for organizing this bof. I have few comments/suggestions as follows:- * Can we/Do we take feedback from sponsors about their Debian specific requirements/issues in general? * Corporate/Business user avoids to post at public mailing lists using their corporate e-mail address to prevent from getting spammed. And also to save himself from spreading his corporate signature along with sensitive information like office address,office phone number etc. How can we address that issue? [Remember 'out of office' replies at mailing lists sometimes? ;-) ] * Are we interested or do we already address issues (proactively) of SMB's & large corporate customers where deployment/scaling of Debian os happens in hundred & thousands of volume? * Can their be a dedicated team to respond queries (Debian specific) of IT folks (inc CTO,CIO's) from corporate/business space where they deal with Debian OS in a complex env side by side with other Linux operating systems & applications? Lastly yes I am keeping in mind that Debian is a community driven universal operating system & we do not talk in commercial/business language :-) Thanks & regards, Amey [India] ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

[Debconf-discuss] Bike trip starts at 10:00 *** at the railway station ***
Hi, because some people assumed we start at 10:00 at the youth hostel: This is wrong. The bike rental inside the railway station opens at 10:00 and we want to be the first fetching the bikes. The trip starts once the last of us has fetched a proper bike. Its the turn of the people without a bike to decide when to start here.

In 2004, I got myself a PowerBook; OSX updates broke yaboot more than once. Apparently, apple hasn't changed in that regard... My recommendation would be to throw out OSX if you're going to use Debian.
