moving t_functional and other repos from gitorious to git.c.o
by Karanbir Singh 20 May '14

20 May '14

Hi, given that we have our own git infra in place now, I propose moving the upstream t_functional setup ( and other repos we have there ) from gitorious.org to git.centos.org will that work for everyone ? Also, some of the docs on the wiki and in the git repo itself will need updating. - KB -- Karanbir Singh, Project Lead, The CentOS Project +44-207-0999389 | http://www.centos.org/ | twitter.com/CentOS GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Centos kernel upgrade
by Mark Fisher 12 May '14

12 May '14

Is it possible to run a Centos 6.5's kernel on a Centos 5.10 installation? I have compiled a new kernel from kernel-2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.src.rpm. The kernel does not even boot on my Centos 5.10 box. Vanilla kernels from kernel.org work well. Is this about Red Hat kernel patches? Cheers, Mark

Official docker images and updates
by Jim Perrin 12 May '14

12 May '14

To consolidate the docker effort moving around the -devel list [1][2], I've been talking with the docker folks about taking over the 'official' CentOS images they have in place, and transferring the responsibility to the cloud sig. Currently Chris StPierre and Adam Miller have been helping to do the work and get us in contact with the right people. As it stands right now, the docker folks use stackbrew[3] to generate their images, jam the resulting image tarball into git, and submit a pull request when updates are required. As long as the image can be imported into docker, they don't seem to have a problem with the way we're currently[4] doing things The recent openssl bug has gotten them a bit more hurried to transition the responsibility back to us. Immediate requirements: - An updated docker image, built from the most recent updates so that the openssl fix is in place. Short term requirements: - A brief description of the centos image, with url for more information - Wiki page documenting the basics of the docker image, how it's created, and how to use it. Long term requirements: - Update plan for for keeping the docker image updated, along with 'emergency roll-out plan' for critical updates. - established policy for docker and other cloud images. Thoughts?

Providing newer versions of packages from base CentOS/RHEL
by Darryl L. Pierce 12 May '14

12 May '14

Here's the back story: Base RHEL 6 has Qpid 0.14, which is a very old release. Our team wants to make a more recent version, 0.26, available for projects such as Open Stack. They are adopting CentOS as a platform and would like to use 0.26, which includes AMQP 1.0 support. We can't package 0.26 for EPEL6 due to 0.14 being in the base. So it was suggested to me in IRC to come here and ask for guidance. We would like to make our newer packages available for CentOS 6. What's the right path to follow? -- Darryl L.

c7.00.00 build reports
by Karanbir Singh 12 May '14

12 May '14

hi for those of you who are tracking the build-reports, the c7.00.00 build running at the moment is just a scratch-build, to try and scope up the issues we are likely to hit in the i386/x86_64 build splits and to quantify exactly what part of i386 we need to owl as a bare minimal. its running on a single builder node, and were not running the powerpc / arm builds in parallel ( yet ). Early next week, we should be in a position to start a proper buildrun off the rhel7rc codebase. - KB -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Hosting SIG
by Major Hayden 07 May '14

07 May '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello there, I've been using CentOS for quite a while but I haven't gotten involved with the overall community quite yet. I'm using this email as a step towards changing that. ;) Karanbir mentioned that the Hosting SIG[1] needed an owner and I'd like to take on that challenge I've worked with web/application hosting since 2002 from basic LAMP stacks to large-scale, highly orchestrated OpenStack-based virtualization environments. There are some nuances to the world of hosting that demands quite a few changes from a standard CentOS minimal installation. Some of my goals for the SIG would be: 1) How do we make it easier for system administrators to host applications using various development languages and server platforms? 2) How can we make configuration automation frameworks more effective and easier to use on CentOS in hosting environments? (Think ansible, puppet, chef, etc) 3) I'd like to see if we could make a boot-from-PXE squashfs live OS (similar to Debian's live system) a supported solution for very large server environments. These are just some of my initial thoughts on the topic. I welcome your feedback!

github mirrors and subgroups
by Karanbir Singh 06 May '14

06 May '14

hi, Working on getting some of the git.c.o stuff into place, and we came up against an interesting problem - in a single organisation on github, one cant have sub groups or sub directories. So if we intend to run a complete set of git mirrors from git.c.o on github.c then were going to have a single listing of a few thousand repos. It is possible to setup teams, that are then visible as github.com/orgs/CentOS/teams/virtsig etc - and one can see just the repos that team is responsible for - but might there be a more elegant solution ? one potential solution is to have github.com/CentOS as the parent organisation, and setup CentOS-SIG-Virt etc as completely different organisations, with teams that are able to completely admin that namespace ( maybe CentOS-SIGVirt or something shorter ). I've had a few conversations with the folks over at github and there doesnt seem to be any other obvious workaround to this. Unless, I am missing something ? thoughts / comments on a potential plan ? -- Karanbir Singh, Project Lead, The CentOS Project +44-207-0999389 | http://www.centos.org/ | twitter.com/CentOS GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
