Introduction Fedocal
by Pierre-Yves Chibon 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Hi all, Kevin asked me to present Fedocal a little bit. Fedocal is a web-application aiming at providing a central place for Fedora calendar related data. My first thoughts while doing this was the #fedora-meeting{,-1,-2} IRC channels, but I do think it could work as well for any other calendar related information (releases?, infra?). == What does it do? * Admin can create calendar(s) * Calendar are managed by a FAS group * People within this FAS group can create meetings on this calendar * While creating meeting, the creator can specify co-managers for the meeting. * Only the manager(s) can edit and delete meetings (and only in the future) * Meetings have a date, starting and stopping time and a free text field which can contain any information (agenda, introduction...). * Meetings can be recursive until the end of time == 2121-12-31*, or until a specified time and their frequency can be every 7 or 14 days. * Meetings can have a reminder. * Reminder are sent 12h, 24h, 48h or 168h (7days) before the meetings[2] * Reminders can be sent to several email address (comma separated)[2] * Meetings can be deleted/edited either a single meeting, or all the future meetings of a recursive meeting. * The calendars have a weekly view which can be browsed * The calendars can also be pointed to a single date, it will then return the view of the week ie: /#fedora-meeting2/2012/9/25 will return the week view of the 25h of September, same for /#fedora-meeting2/2012/9/28 == Future plans? * The first is for sure, see if this application can be useful * Finish up what needs to be * Take into account the timezone returned by the FAS for the user to display the calendar. Maybe having two columns one with UTC one with the local time. * Provide a iCal/Caldav output so that we can couple it to a calendar client [3] * See with Mizmo to give Fedocal a nicer look :) * Testing! Fedocal is still work in progress but there is already some things nicely working. It will requires some more work but I think it is duable to have something basic quikly there. The big question is then: do we consider this useful or should we try to move to a real calendar solution with the reminder function added ? Best regards, Pierre [1] Why 2121-12-31? Because 21+21=42 [2] This work is still to be done (probably a script to run via a cronjob at first) [3] This will require quite some work and probably more than I can put in during my free time PS: I am opening now the discussion but I'll be away for 10 days starting on Wednesday (morning, US time)

A small step towards for solving Ticket 1084
by vipin kumar 03 Oct '12

03 Oct '12

Hi Team! This mail is regarding Ticket 1084<https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1084> As I already informed in Infrastructure weekly meeting that I'm proposing a slight change in page<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Architecture>layout as mentioned below - 1 Global Presence < this section is about either showing fedora servers in geographical map or just listing server locations as suggested by 'abadger1999'.> 2 Network Topology < this section shows how our severs are interconnected or connected to the outside world. I guess this section will make more sense if we are just listing the server locations in section 1.> 3 Network Architecture < this section will show overall network architecture with protocol stacks > 3.1 Front end < similar to present section but with more detail > 3.2 Proxy view < similar to present section but with more detail > 3.3 Application layer < similar to present section but with more detail > 4 Helping Out (or Help Us ?) < this section will target two type of contributors, one who can improve the quality of information present in page <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Architecture>and another who can provide resources.> This is the overall structure and type of content the page will have. Please let me know about any additions, deletions or Improvements. Thanks & Regards, -- Vipin K. IRC ID: _love_hurts_

Web App Accessibility
by Toshio Kuratomi 20 Sep '12

20 Sep '12

Accessibility of Web Apps For a while we've been striving to write web apps that would be usable by screen readers for people who have visual impairment. Fedora Community was a solitary exception to this as it was seen as merely aggregating apps that were provided elsewhere. However, this year, we've had more apps start to rely on javascript that manipulates the DOM (tagger comes to mind). This is a problem for screen readers as there are no open source screen readers that I know of that enable this functionality reliably (elinks is the closest. It links to spidermonkey for a javascript interpreter. However, it only implements bits and pieces of the DOM it's extremely unlikely to work with anything useful.) I think it's time to re-evaluate what we want to strive for in terms of accessibility. Here's the options I've come up with. Feel free to come up with other options :-) * Stop worrying about accessibility - We can use whatever works in our standard graphical browsers since we no longer target people who cannot use them with (up to) all five senses. * Continue to target screen readers for things we write - Unless someone can find some better news than I've been able to, this means, among other things, having fallbacks for pages in apps that use javascript, imagemaps, or other things that don't work in text-mode browsers so people using screen readers have a method of accessing the same functionality. This is usually implemented by rendering the fallback as the html page. Then having javascript replace the contents of the page with whatever is needed to implement the more dynamic view. * Continue to target screen readers but only for things we consider in "the critical path" - Critical path has been loosely defined as things that are used to build and push out packages. pkgs.fp.o, koji, bodhi, fas are the obvious ones. pkgdb and tagger are currently in a grey area of we'll-survive-without-but-they-probably-should-be-included. wiki (editing) and mirrormanager (admining mirrors, not downloading via) are examples of things that are not in the critical path. * Discard accessibility for screen readers in the WebUI where we provide a terminal-app that does the same thing. - This would assume that people using these web apps are using Fedora. Then again, there might be other methods besides screen readers to access web pages with javascript on other platforms? * Assume that blind users can use standard desktop apps (like firefox and webkit based browsers) to access our web apps as long as the apps provide keyboard navigation. - I don't know if this is a reasonable expectation on Fedora. Need to talk to someone who works on accessibility to know if this is a viable option for blind users, for a subset that are vision impaired but not totally blind, or of no use at all. - We'll also need to think about how to make keyboard navigation discoverable and perhaps settle on some standard keybindings. I haven't checked the current state of all our applications in elinks recently but I did just do a spot check. pkgdb and tagger and both are currently unusable for their editing functions (tagger I couldn't even log in). FAS worked. koji I suspect will work for read-only views. For read-write it may work if there's a way to have elinks use the fedora client-side certificate. -Toshio

Fedora 18 Alpha Freeze in effect.
by Kevin Fenzi 19 Sep '12

19 Sep '12

Greetings. we are now in the infrastructure freeze leading up to the Fedora 18 Alpha release. This is a pre-release freeze. Please see: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/browser/architecture/Environ… Anything in the Pre Release freeze box is frozen until 2012-08-28 (or later if Alpha slips). This means there should be NO puppet changes to any hosts in there (including global ones) without signoff of the change from at least 2 folks in sysadmin-main and/or release-engineering. Thanks, kevin

[Freeze Break Request] Remove extraneous notify on /etc/sysconfig/puppet

14 Sep '12

Since we're not using the puppet agent anymore, if the /etc/sysconfig/puppet file is changed, there is no need to notify the puppet service.

Freeze break request: kill openhw2012 app and make it static
by Luke Macken 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

I wish to destroy the openhw2012 app and turn it into a static page (which we need to have public for the next 6 months). I have the static version of the page staged in my local fedora-web repos under 'fedora-web/fedoraproject.org/static/openhw2012'. Once approved, I will push that and make the following change to puppet that removes the openhw2012 module, node, and redirect. Once that is complete, the new static page should theoretically Just Work, and we can then destroy the openhw2012 VM. luke --- a/manifests/nodes/openhw2012.phx2.fedoraproject.org.pp +++ /dev/null @@ -1,35 +0,0 @@ -node "openhw2012.phx2.fedoraproject.org" { - $fas_groups = [ 'sysadmin-main', 'sysadmin-noc' , 'fi-apprentice', 'sysadmin-web' ] - include global - include fas::client - include phx - include selinux-enforcing - include httpd::app - include openvpn::client - - eth { 'eth0': - ipaddr => '10.5.126.44', - netmask => '255.255.255.0', - } - - iptables::firewall { 'ipv4': - tcpPorts => [ 80, 443, 6996 ] - } - - selboolean { [ - "httpd_tmp_exec", - "httpd_can_network_connect_db", - "httpd_can_sendmail", - "httpd_can_network_connect", - "httpd_read_user_content", - ]: - persistent => true, - value => on, - } - - semanage_fcontext { [ - "/srv/web/openhw2012/data(/.*)?", - ]: - type => "httpd_sys_rw_content_t", - } -} diff --git a/manifests/services/proxy.pp b/manifests/services/proxy.pp index ba72022..b2143eb 100644 --- a/manifests/services/proxy.pp +++ b/manifests/services/proxy.pp @@ -580,12 +580,6 @@ class proxy { path => "/fedmsg", } - openhw2012::proxy { "fedoraproject.org/openhw2012": - website => "fedoraproject.org", - path => "/openhw2012", - proxyurl => "http://openhw2012", - } - review-stats::proxy { "fedoraproject.org/PackageReviewStatus": website => "fedoraproject.org", path => "/PackageReviewStatus", diff --git a/modules-staging/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg b/modules-staging/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg index 89dc039..8d3abd0 100644 --- a/modules-staging/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg +++ b/modules-staging/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg @@ -192,11 +192,6 @@ listen tagger 0.0.0.0:10017 server packages02 packages02:80 check inter 5s rise 2 fall 3 option httpchk GET /tagger/_heartbeat -#listen openhw2012 0.0.0.0:10018 -# balance hdr(appserver) -# server openhw2012 openhw2012:80 check inter 5s rise 2 fall 3 -# option httpchk GET /openhw2012/accept - #listen membership-map 0.0.0.0:10001 # balance hdr(appserver) # server app1 app1:80 check inter 5s rise 2 fall 3 diff --git a/modules/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg b/modules/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg index 89dc039..8d3abd0 100644 --- a/modules/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg +++ b/modules/haproxy/files/haproxy.cfg @@ -192,11 +192,6 @@ listen tagger 0.0.0.0:10017 server packages02 packages02:80 check inter 5s rise 2 fall 3 option httpchk GET /tagger/_heartbeat -#listen openhw2012 0.0.0.0:10018 -# balance hdr(appserver) -# server openhw2012 openhw2012:80 check inter 5s rise 2 fall 3 -# option httpchk GET /openhw2012/accept - #listen membership-map 0.0.0.0:10001 # balance hdr(appserver) # server app1 app1:80 check inter 5s rise 2 fall 3 diff --git a/modules/openhw2012/manifests/init.pp b/modules/openhw2012/manifests/init.pp deleted file mode 100644 index 17939e4..0000000 --- a/modules/openhw2012/manifests/init.pp +++ /dev/null @@ -1,17 +0,0 @@ -define openhw2012::proxy( - $website, - $path, - $proxyurl -) { - include httpd::base - - file { "/etc/httpd/conf.d/$website/openhw2012.conf": - owner => "root", - group => "root", - mode => 0644, - notify => Service["httpd"], - content => template("openhw2012/openhw2012-proxy.conf.erb"), - require => Httpd::Website[$website], - } -} - diff --git a/modules/openhw2012/templates/openhw2012-proxy.conf.erb b/modules/openhw2012/templates/openhw2012-proxy.conf.erb deleted file mode 100644 index de49a5a..0000000 --- a/modules/openhw2012/templates/openhw2012-proxy.conf.erb +++ /dev/null @@ -1,4 +0,0 @@ -RewriteEngine On - -ProxyPass <%= path %> <%= proxyurl %>/openhw2012 -ProxyPassReverse <%= path %> <%= proxyurl %>/openhw2012 -- 1.7.2.1

Security fad scheduling
by Kevin Fenzi 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

So, our security FAD as it's currently scheduled is in Fedora 18 release week. ;) Please see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_Infrastructure_Security_2012 Now it may be that we slip a bit more for F18, and if so, it would mean that the FAD is in final freeze (unless we slip more than 2 more weeks). Doing the auth changes and other things we would like to do at the FAD might be anoying when trying to keep things stable for final release. So, I'd like to ask folks who are thinking of attending, would: 2012-11-05 to 2012-11-08 work as alternate dates? That would put us before final freeze, and unless Beta slipped 2 or more weeks we would be out of freeze. Thoughts? Also, anyone thinking of attending, could you update your info in the table with current costs, etc? kevin

announcing repository updates over Fedora Message Bus
by Kamil Paral 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

I wonder, is it possible for Fedora Infrastructure team to implement announcements of new repository pushes over Fedora Message Bus[1]? By new repository pushes I mean updates to 'fedora', 'updates' and 'updates-testing' repositories for all Fedora releases as well as updates to 'branched' and 'rawhide' trees. The benefits of this solution: 1. Mirrors that download from dl.fp.o could start syncing very soon after an update is pushed (after a random timeout to decrease the load). 2. Those mirrors wouldn't have to periodically query the server for updates. 3. The duration when those mirrors are outdated would be shorter. I can just guess about other people, but in our office I believe the message bus would help a lot. Currently we query the master server every 4 hours for updates. That presents a lot of bandwidth/IO load on both sides. Using the message bug there would be no useless queries. Also it would help us stay up-to-date more often that we currently are (if 'branched' is updated an hour after our last query, there are 3 hours wasted until we run rsync again). This solution could be extended in the future to all Fedora public mirrors, so that they could announce using our message bus when they have finished syncing and users that sync from that particular mirror would know when to start downloading from it. (E.g. if I use mirrors1.kernel.org to sync my private mirror, I would wait for their announcement on our message bus). What do you think? [1] join #fedora-fedmsg and stay there for a while, if you don't know what message bus is

Contributing to the Fedora
by vipin kumar 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

Hi again, I will be glad if someone can help me getting started towards however small but high quality contribution to fedora. I have read many fedora wiki pages about getting started and still exploring to get familiar with environment. I'm a Linux user since Redhat 9. To begin with, I have chosen Smolt application in fedora. Later I will expand my scope to create application for Automated-Trading in Fedora. Yet another work will focus on running non-native applications with full charm in Fedora (ex- Age of Empires - II the conquerors, I love this game :P). My TODO list is not limited to these works. I would like to work towards making Fedora easier to use for normal users as well as developers by building the tools and utilities, and creating new applications to make Fedora development faster and smoother process. looking forward to hear from you guys :)...cheers... Thanks & Regards, -- Vipin K.

Review Requests for moksha (fedmsg)
by Ralph Bean 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

fedmsg was pulling in way too many dependencies, including (almost) a whole web stack. None of it was even being used. All of it came from moksha which grew as an all-in-one, batteries-included framework. I split moksha upstream into three separate namespace packages to solve the problem. Now they're up for package review. If anyone is free to lend a review, it'd be much appreciated. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=854605&hide_resolved=1 Some notes: The package "moksha" will still exist, but now as a kind of meta-package that just included the other three. Its subpackages like moksha-server (httpd) and moksha-doc (sphinx) will continue to exist as well. My changes will break most projects that use moksha until they can be patched to use the new namespace. For us, this includes: - The packages webapp - fedmsg - busmon I've already prepared and tested commits to the development trees of all three projects that work with the new moksha. -threebean
