Wider conversation around process and delivery for the Cloud SIG
by Karanbir Singh 29 Jan '14

29 Jan '14

hi, I'd like to invite everyone wanting to contribute to the Cloud SIG and representing a project outside centos.org to come along for a chat on google hangout at the CentOS OfficeHours 23rd Jan 2014 @ 16:00 UTC. Because we only have a few slots for people to talk, I've shortlisted these folks: OpenStack: Mike Burns, Dave Neary, Rich Bowen Eucalyptus: Greg DK OpenNebula: Jaime Melis CloudStack: Sebastien Goasguen oVirt: Doron Fediuck If you want to be on this list, please get in touch. If you are on this list but cant make it at that date/time, please nominate someone else in your place and let me know their email address so I can notify them of the url to join. This will be a video/audio session and will be publicly broadcast over youtube/hangouts on air; the recording of the session will be available immediately after. Bonus cookies for everyone who turns up in their project tshirts! You can see what time that is on your local timezone at this url : http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20140123T16&am=30 About the session: - Plan on an hour - Every project should do a few minutes worth of a pitch about what they would like to see as a good first goal and a good longer term goal. - We can then discuss delivery mechanis, and how the forward maintenance of the projects payload is going to work ( essentially, workout how the rpms will map to os/ and updates/ ) - Consider the workflow from git.centos.org ( KB to do a 5 min demo ) Regards, -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

This is just a ping for whoever manages http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/chromium/6, wondering if you could update to Chromium 32?

mirrors for contribution paths
by Karanbir Singh 29 Jan '14

29 Jan '14

hi At the moment, we use gitorious.org for inbounc test contributions, but we've adopted github for some of the newer content going into git.centos.org with manual bridges to/from git.centos.org in both cases. I just want to make sure we are doing what people find easiest, and then we do the same thing all around, with that in mind should we : - have mirrors for content on both github.com and gitorious.org - mirror everything to gitorious.org only - mirror everything to github.com only ofcourse, with ACL's coming up into git.centos.org - there will be plenty of opportunity to work directly inside git.centos.org ( with post-recv triggers pushing to whatever wherever we mirror the repos to ). - KB -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

migrating artwork to git.centos.org
by Jim Perrin 29 Jan '14

29 Jan '14

So, running this by the list for opinions: We're going to be moving the Artwork SIG from its current home at https://projects.centos.org/trac/artwork/ (svn) to a new home on git.centos.org. In this transition, we'd like to clean up some of the older content that's no longer used. The easy way to do this would be to pull current svn repo, strip out the legacy content, and then upload clean into git. While this is my preference, the drawback is that it removes any commit history for the project prior to the cutover date. The benefit is we have a clean, and more importantly, current starting point to work from for the seven beta build, which we'd like to start putting out in public. Are there objections to this approach? -- Jim Perrin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org twitter: @BitIntegrity | GPG Key: FA09AD77

Cloud-init for CentOS?
by Nux! 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

Hello, Can someone more involved with the Cloud SIG advise on how to use cloud-init in such a way that it does not violate the SIG rules? I.e. please add it to one of the CentOS repos so we can use it "legally". :-) The purpose is including it in "official" Cloudstack CentOS images.

Cloud Instance SIG Hackathon @ CentOS Dojo 31st Jan 2014
by Karanbir Singh 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

hi, We are organising a hack session to try and build, test and deliver a set of CentOS-5/6 32bit/64bit images usable by various onpremise cloud setups. This email aims to give everyone an overview of what to expect on the day, so we can jump right in on the day and get productive. This is a bit of a wordy email, so feel free to skip details - I will have most of the important stuff on paper to hand out on the day as well. The Hack session is expected to start just after lunch, and will run through to the end of the day ( ~ 17:30 ); On the day, I will have a local Wifi network with SSID DojoHackathon running at the time, everyone wanting to participate will need to get onto that. dhcp on the network will hand out 172.30.30.100 - 250 IP's. There is a gateway on .1 that will NAT requests to the upstream internet ( but I'm told its slow, so dont rely on it being there ). If anyone needs content to pull, please let either me or Johnny know, we will mirror it down before the event and make sure its on the mirror host on the network at the time. We are going to have : - CentOS 5/6 on both 32/64 bit x86 - EPEL 5/6 - EPEL-Testing 5/6 Various people representing projects have offered to bring pre-setup cloud infra on their laptops, thanks for that. Lets try and target everyone of those on the day. So far the list is : - OpenNebula - CloudStack - OpenStack ( the HPCloud edition ) - OpenStack ( the RDO edition ) A rather basic idea of what to expect in terms of infra/network on the day : http://bit.ly/1ffXr4G ; Workflow anticipated: - git.centos.org ( hosted locally ) will have the git repos that host kickstarts and metadata files that have some info around the kickstarts. - anyone can clone the git repos ( I will make sure its pretty clear as to what repo to get for what task, ideally there will only be one git repo with all the kickstarts ). - make changes / edits / push back to git.centos.org ( please ensure git user.name and user.email is sane ) - git post-recv triggers kick off the actual image builds on the image-builder node, which will then push the resulting file to cloud.centos.org ( both image-builder and cloud.centos.org mirrors will be hosted locally ). - cloud images from cloud.centos.org can then be downloaded and instantiated on the cloud infra people are running; - once satisfied that the image does everything that is 'required', git clone the t_functional repo, and run the test suite. PASS on that would indicate them that the image is good to ship. For the day, we will trim the test suite down to just the basic stuff that runs in 10 min or less. - Indicate pass with a comment in the metadata file and git commit which starts with 'RELEASEABLE ', git push. rinse & repeat for 32bit and 64bit. Worth noting here that the reason i have all the various components setup to work with real world urls ( faked by dnsmasq on the .1 machine ) is that post hackathon the exact same infra will go live on the same urls. With one major change : we will have little or no ACL's fon the git repos at the hackathon to make live easier and encourage participation. Post Hackathon, we'll need to establish a mechanism for people to request commit access. If we still have time at the end of the day, we can shoot to deliver something that works for vmware, ovirt and docker. I am still waiting to hear back from the Eucalyptus guys if someone from their side is going to be at the hack session. please note: all kickstarst and images will need to only consume content hosted in mirror.centos.org and epel ( or if you need something else, let us know before Wed 29th ). See you there, -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc

Adding community PostgreSQL RPMs to CentOS repositories.
by Devrim GÜNDÜZ 27 Jan '14

27 Jan '14

Hi, Greetings first: I am maintaining the PostgreSQL community RPMs : http//yum.postgresql.org About 2 years before, Karanbir and I spoke a bit about adding these RPMs to CentOS repositories. Right now, only 8.4 is officially supported in RHEL/CentOS, which will be EOL'ed in a few months by upstream. However, community has RPMs for all versions from 8.4 to 9.3, which are in active development and released at the same time with the tarballs. Community RPMs has the ability for parallel installation also, so that people can run multiple version as the same time. So, how would you like to proceed? The SVN repo is open to public, and all you will need to do is pulling them and building the packages on CentOS servers.

Cloud Instance SIG
by Karanbir Singh 23 Jan '14

23 Jan '14

hi guys, pushing this a bit forward since there is quite a bit of activity in this area already : http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/CloudInstance while there are quite a few people keen on this subject, I've not added names to the wiki page, please come along and either edit it in ( if you are editgroup members ) or request addition and setup a homepage for yourself on the wiki. going out on a limb here but I am going to propose we get cloud-init out of EPEL into a local repo here so we can mange the entire stack locally for the time being while the larger repo dependancy conversations are ongoing. Also, this Wednesday's OfficeHours on Wed 22nd at 10:00 UTC ( http://wiki.centos.org/OfficeHours ) is dedicated to the Openstack images conversation. -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
