forums + portal for {lang}.centos.org sites

Hi, Earlier in the evening today Ralph, Fabian and I had a chat about the present state of the language subsites. This email sort of summarises the main issue ( s/w ). We seem to have run into a slight technical hitch with punbb/fluxbb. They dont support LDAP as a backend. And we had decided a few months back that all new rollouts must have ldap backend so we can rollin CentOS-DS / openldap based backend. So we need to look at alternatives, and since the primary focus of these international sites is going be forums : Here is a shortlist ( if there is anything else that people are aware of, please add to this list ) - phpBB - SMF - Fudforum - phorum - fluxbb Requirements: - Must be able to scale ( couple of hundred thousand msgs ) - Must be able to handle ldap auth ( if it cant, whats involved in writing the ldap-auth portion ) - Must address the specific requirements raised by the present www.centos.org forum users ( Can you please fill this section in ? ) - Must support all languages we need ( pure utf8 support would be good ) - Secure - Skin'able Nice to have: - Capable of running multiple instances from a single deployment - responsive community :D Things we will need to do: - Decide on what s/w to use. - Give the ArtWork people enough time to get the look & feel sorted. - Migrate newbb forums from www.centos.org to $system ( hey, english is a language too :D ). - Migrate fr.centos.org into the final s/w - setup {de/es/ja/it/pt_br}.centos.org Actions: Ralph and Fabian are going to work on setting up a test ldap server, once that is online we will then start by installing into our test-vm-farm the various s/w to eval them. If anyone would like to help, please feel free to jump right in. I'll setup a wiki page for this issue, which might be a good place to track progress. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

CentOS 7 ppc64le (power little endian) rpms, build logs, mock configs
by James O'Connor 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Here are the first two rounds of CentOS 7 ppc64le rpms, build logs, and mock configs: Round A: http://ppcbootstrap.lon1.centos.org/C7a/ppc64le/ * Built atop Fedora 21 ppc64le VMs * Built from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/os/Source/SPackages/ and c7-ppc64le branch on git.centos.org * Source rpms were temporarily modified to remove circular dependencies during the bootstrap process Round B: http://ppcbootstrap.lon1.centos.org/C7b/ppc64le/ * Built atop Centos 7 ppc64le VMs * Built from http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/os/Source/SPackages/ , http://vault.centos.org/7.1.1503/updates/Source/SPackages/ , and c7-ppc64le branch on git.centos.org * noarch rpms were skipped as those will be taken from c7-x86_64 * Only gcc.spec (%global build_ada 0), curl.spec (upstream testcase fix), ghostscript.spec (upstream segfault fix) and nss.spec (upstream fix for expired PayPal cert) were modified. I will provide further details on these alterations on the altarch ppc64le wiki page once that gets created. Feedback is most welcome. You may find jpoc on the #centos-devel and #centos-ppc irc channels. Once the AltArch SIG is officially approved, we will share installable alpha/beta images and rpm repositories. Thanks -James

CentOS 7 liveCD survey
by Fabian Arrotin 28 Nov '15

28 Nov '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, While working on the next 7.1511 Live media, I discovered that the size for the actual CentOS 7 LiveCD would be more than 700MB. It's due to some packages being now bigger and bigger, also due to the big Gnome 3.8 -> 3.14 rebase. One obvious package I can remove from the packages manifest (which itself is consuming more and more space) is Firefox. If I remove it from the packages manifest (only for LiveCD, it will obviously stay for the LiveGnome and LiveKDE DVD iso images), it's then back to 650 MB, so that would mean that one would still be able to burn it on a CD. But the real question is then : does that even make sense ? for each release, we're now fighting with disk space constraints, and I'm each time removing packages from that LiveCD image. If we remove Firefox itself, that would mean that such LiveCD would be useful just for people willing to "test" CentOS on their hardware, but that would be a basic Gnome desktop. It builds/runs fine, can be installed too (like before), but I'd like your opinion about this.

announcing content from the sign process
by Karanbir Singh 27 Nov '15

27 Nov '15

hi SIGs are releasing stuff, the Cloud SIG has had a few updates since their initial release, but this content isnt being announced as yet. To work towards this, I am going to plumb in an auto email script that should send out one notice per SIG per day, for days when that SIG has released content. Since the sign, push only runs once a day, it wont be a huge number of emails. As a test bed, I am going to set this up to send these announcements to the CentOS-Devel list ( this list! ), and if everyone feels the format etc is fine, we can then start sending them to the CentOS-Announce list.

Re: [CentOS-devel] [Gluster-users] What Gluster versions would you like to see in the CentOS Storage SIG?

Any reason why that hasn't been considered ? I do not know if this has been considered before I joined the Storage Special Interest Group. The SIGs that are part of the CentOS Community are free to provide newer packages from upstream projects, or even projects that are not part of RHEL or its add-ons. A more complete desctiption of what a SIG can provide/do is available on the CentOS wiki at https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup . The RHGS product tracks the upstream Gluster packages pretty close. I do not think there is a need to provide a rebuild of the RHGS packages. That said, if there is anyone interested in providing those, speak up and join the Storage SIG! https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Storage Thanks, Niels > > On Tue, Nov 10, 2015 at 1:25 AM, C.L.
