Fedora 29 Talking Points
by Alberto Rodriguez Sanchez
Hello Teams,
I'm Alberto from the Marketing team, I'm asking for help to complete
the Fedora 29 Talking points[1].
Talking points are key highlights of the new release. There are
different types of talking points for different types of people:
general desktop users/everyone, developers, and sysadmins. They are
meant to provide a short, effective answer to the question "What cool
stuff is in the latest release of Fedora?" They are compelling, not
necessarily comprehensive.
Best Regards.

[atomic-wg] Issue #505: RFC: Make /var/srv
system_u:object_r:container_share_t:s0 by default
by Colin Walters
walters reported a new issue against the project: `atomic-wg` that you are following:
``
SELinux and containers - a fairly nontrivial difference we carry from other distributions (Ubuntu, CL) etc. that either don't use SELinux or aren't enforcing. See [this blog](https://www.projectatomic.io/blog/2015/06/using-volumes-with-docker-can-cause-problems-with-selinux/) for some discussion about the `:z/:Z` flags.
The fact that we require these labels to be set very, very commonly trips up people. And further, I think a big problem with `:z` is that it forces a relabel every time - it's much better to have the labels set up correctly in the first place!
Another related issue is that people do e.g. `-v /home/myuser:/home:z` which will completely break the OS which expects `/home/myuser` to be `user_home_dir_t` etc.
Hence, my proposal is: For Atomic Host, change `/var/srv` to be `system_u:object_r:container_share_t:s0` by default. It can then be *assumed* as a default interchange point for containers and the host - no labeling required.
Positives: We can start documenting this, and other tools (like a pet container one) can just assume this works.
Downsides: If we don't do this for classic as well, we'll have introduced a new special distinction between AH and classic - we currently have very few of those.

Suggestions re Atomic server and GPU Crypto mining
by Philip Rhoades
People,
I have been following Project Atomic for a while with interest and am at
the stage where I am ready to bite the bullet and set up an old machine
to test out an Atomic Server. I didn't really have a particular use
case in mind - it was just going to be a learning exercise - but more
recently I have become interested in testing out some GPU CrypoCurrency
mining. So what I am interested in doing is setting up the Atomic
Server and creating a container specifically for mining and allow it to
use a new GPU card that I will put into the computer - I presume there
should be no difficulty with that idea?
If that exercise went well, I was thinking of adding a second GPU card
and a second container which could mine a different CryptoCurrency by
having the second GPU allocated to it?
Has anyone here done this sort of thing before?
Thanks,
Phil.
