Hi all,
If you follow the centos-promo mailing list (it exists!)[1] you may have
noticed a lot of discussion lately around putting together a lot of
CentOS Dojos this year.
We're currently planning, and have announced, several Dojos:
* March 31 (Santa Clara, CA):
http://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/SantaClara2014
* April 10 (Denver, CO):
http://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Denver2014
* April 11 (Lyon, France):
http://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Lyon2014
And we have quite a few more coming, all over the world.
If you are using CentOS in production, doing interesting things on
CentOS, or have ideas for presentations that would be very interesting
for CentOS users, please feel free to get in touch with me or KB about
speaking at one of the Dojos.
We're very much looking for presentations or discussions that will be
relevant to folks who are using CentOS at scale. Case studies, best
practices, tips and tricks, etc. What we avoid at Dojos are product
pitches or 101-type presentations that won't be useful for experienced
admins / users.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

I would like to create a project with JBoss EAP similar to what CentOS
does with RHEL. A proposed name would be CentAP for Community Enterprise
Application Platform. I think the CentOS community would definitely
benefit from this.

Hello everbody,
Im Roozbeh Shafiee, a Linux administrator and developer from a
telecommunication company in Tehran-IRAN and this is my first email in
centos mailing list.
Im planning to create Cluster SIG in CentOS ecosystem, me and my partners
have a plan to create this SIG for our administration projects and we
decided that merge this project with CentOS SIGs.
I read this wiki page:http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup and I'll
be thankful if you give some more information about it.

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
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.

Hi,
I was wondering why the scons package in CentOS 6, while being a noarch
package, is available on x86_64 repos only. I was checking several
mirrors world-wide but it seems to be consistently missing on i386.
Best,
Christoph
I know a number of people have been using the nx/freenx packages
available from the centos-extras repo. Now, EPEL recently started
distributing NX packages. When you run 'yum update' with epel enabled,
it will replace CentOS' nx as seen here:
http://pastebin.centos.org/8101/
Have any of you tried EPEL's version? If so, can you share your findings?
The open-source edition of NX (version 3.5.x) is virtually static
because there would not be updates from NoMachine. I don't know if
EPEL made any changes/additions to what CentOS offers.
