Reminder: VoIP SIG Hangout today Feb 13, 16:00 UTC
by Patrick Laimbock 29 May '14

29 May '14

Hi, Reminder: as previously announced on the centos-devel list, the VoIP SIG Hangout will be today Feb 13 at 16:00 UTC [0]. For more information how to join the hangout on Google+ or follow it on Youtube please check http://wiki.centos.org/OfficeHours Nothing set in stone but some of the things open for discussion are the scope of the VoIP SIG, the goal, the target audience, the deliverables, content distribution and lets not forget the actual proposal. It's also helpful to get an industry perspective, how to make the production side easier and facilitate processes that improve the usability of CentOS in the VoIP sector. Best regards, Patrick Laimbock [0] http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20140213T16&am=30

OpenNebula Variant and Cloud SIG proposals
by Jaime Melis 26 May '14

26 May '14

Apologies, I sent this to KB's direct mailbox earlier today and apparently I didn't send it to centos-devel. So I'm forwarding it now. Given that there are at least two other projects keen to make this happen, it would be great if the Cloud SIG could be a single multicloud target. -- Hello, I'm Jaime Melis from the OpenNebula project [1]. We have been involved with CentOS for the past year making a stable Cloud Management Platform [2]. I would like to hereby propose a new CentOS variant, namely the OpenNebula variant. This variant would add three roles to the CentOS installation: * OpenNebula Frontend * OpenNebula Node KVM * OpenNebula Node Xen The work for the Frontend and Node KVM roles has been completed and is ready to be released. The Node Xen role is still in progress although close to being finished. This work should take place under the Cloud SIG umbrella, which right as of now doesn't exist, so I would like to also propose the creation of this group with the aim of making the major cloud platforms work wth Centos.

Secure Boot in RHEL7beta
by Akemi Yagi 30 Apr '14

30 Apr '14

RHEL 7 beta can be installed on systems with 'Secure Boot' enabled as seen in the Installation Guide [1]. More info about Secure Boot is available from Fedora docs and the links therein [2,3] Question is how the implementation of Secure Boot should be handled in CentOS.

interest in Cloud Instance SIG (from the Synnefo and Ganeti side)
by Constantinos Venetsanopoulos 10 Mar '14

10 Mar '14

Hello everybody, I'm interested in participating in the Cloud Instance SIG and help provide official CentOS images for the Synnefo open source cloud platform: http://www.synnefo.org which is built on top of Google Ganeti: https://code.google.com/p/ganeti/ Currently, we are providing to our users our 'system' CentOS image which is just a bundle of the official CentOS iso. The image file is just a raw dump of a disk. Synnefo does not require any special software running inside the image (e.g.: cloud-init) to take care of customization. All customization (setting passwords, hostnames, injecting files, SSH keys, resizing, etc) is done by Synnefo itself in an isolated, virtualized environment for maximum security before spawning the actual VM. So, it would be nice to just redirect our users to the CentOS official image for Synnefo and Ganeti :) Hope to take part in this. Thanks, Constantinos

Update on stats of SIG plans
by Karanbir Singh 04 Mar '14

04 Mar '14

hi, I am sure people are wondering what the state of the SIG's is at this point. And this is a quick recap of stuff from my perspective. We have 8 SIG's that are under active consideration and planning. Every SIG proposal needs to go via the CentOS Board for inclusion and setup. The CentOS Board is starting to get a regular meeting schedule doing, and will meet every Wednesday ( minutes for every meeting will be posted on the website, Jim is working out the mechanics for that ). Starting with the Board meeting of the 5th March, we will consider SIG plans, no more than 2 a meeting, at every other board meeting. These meetings will be held in public, and the SIG's being considered will be notified in advance so they can come and be a part of the conversations ( and any followup can happen immediately after the meeting ). In the coming days, I will be reaching out to the people who nominated themselves to be SIG coordinators, for the SIG's I've offered to help sponsor and start working on the proposals. The proposals will be on the wiki.centos.org site and I'll try to post updates to this list ( centos-devel ) so others can chime in and we incorporate wider, public viewpoints on the proposal. - KB -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

CentOS 7 Artwork
by Alain Reguera Delgado 03 Mar '14

03 Mar '14

Hi, I saw the header artwork at seven.centos.org for first time yesterday afternoon (after a long time off-line) and couldn't resist the motivation of imagining a similar artwork for CentOS 7. Then I read "As a community, for the community" article by Karanbir. Then, with that information in mind, walked one mile from work to home thinking on possible design combinations. When I was at home, I washed my face and started to design using Inkscape and Gimp on a CentOS 6 workstation. As result, the following images arrived: http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… http://wiki.centos.org/ArtWork/Themes/Motifs/CentOS7/Sketch1?action=AttachF… These are initial ideas (sketches) and may change in the future. I appreciate any comment or suggestion you may have. Best Regards. al.
