2020-11-03 heroes meeting - meeting minutes

Main minute taker: Christian

  • Questions and answers from the community

    • none
  • status reports about everything

    • Christian: status.opensuse.org SSL certificate renewal required to temporary disable the http -> https redirect (done manually)
    • Stasiek migrated ML archives for October to mailman3
    • Estu: add lubos as admin at progress to allow him run redmine rest api (https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/75451)
    • pagure setup mostly done, ssh access (and making it secure) is an open question
      • setup fail2ban to limit ssh attacks
      • forward ssh port from proxy to pagure VM (and limit connections from the proxy IPs to git access)? (to get started, ssh limited to those with VPN access)
      • Need to write a redmine->pagure importer for https://pagure.io/pagure-importer
      • handle admin@o.o mails, should create non-public tickets by default
      • migrate salt repo as private repo
  • what do we do about all of those "forum spam" tickets?

    • jdsn will look at the tickets, and will check if it makes sense to block the spammers in the login system (and do it) - and if not, will tell Malcolm that it doesn't make sense to report the spammers
  • login system: SUSE plans to cleanup / remove inactive users

    • "freeing" usernames, and allowing to re-use them, comes with some risks
    • last login is known, but for knowing where these users logged in we'd have to check each and every service
    • TODO: check if all deleted usernames can be added to a blocklist in a single LDAP entry which is covered by OpenLDAP overlay slapo-unique (probably ask Univention)
    • for this cleanup, accounts that were not migrated or used since the account migration are removal candidates
    • will not affect users who were active in an openSUSE service
  • Idea to move (parts of) the openSUSE infrastructure to the cloud

    • up for discussion
    • related to the question how independent openSUSE wants to be from SUSE
    • pros:
      • Easy to scaling
      • Support CDN more like mirror
    • cons:
      • not all heroes are familiar with cloud
      • cost risk and billing account
      • current infrastructure (VMs in the SUSE datacenter) works[tm]
    • open question: which services would benefit from the cloud?
  • review old tickets

    • skipped as usual
