</I>><i> > Hi
</I>><i> >
</I>><i> > After attending Michael's meeting at Libre Software Meeting this week,
</I>><i> > i wanted to know how can i contribute to Mageia project ?
</I>><i> >
</I>><i> > My actual work is sysadmin and for the moment i've no experience about
</I>><i> > open source project...
</I>><i> >
</I>><i> > At work we maintain about 40 Linux servers (Gentoo, Ubuntu) and the

</I>><i> > I've experience with Apache, Nginx, MySQL, Munin, Qmail. And know some
</I>><i> basics with Subversion and Git (usage and server config).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Hi,
</I>><i>
</I>Hi
><i>
</I>
regarding the sysadmin team, we do use puppet quite extensively, so the
><i> first task would be to be familiar with it, and to show you know how to
</I>><i> use it by proposing patches against our repository ( web interface :
</I>><i> <A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/adm/">http://svnweb.mageia.org/adm/</A> , checkout on
</I>><i> <A HREF="svn://svn.mageia.org/svn/adm/">svn://svn.mageia.org/svn/adm/</A> ).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Okay, i'll improved my puppet skills and study the actual infrastructure.
</I>
><i> The idea is to first see if someone is good enough, and motivated enough
</I>><i> before granting real access ( for obvious reasons ).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Ok, no problem.
</I>
><i> We keep a todo list on
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=859&hide_resolved=1">https://bugs.mageia.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=859&hide_resolved=1</A>
</I>><i> ( some tasks are partially done ).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> If you have any kind of questions regarding the infrastructure do not
</I>><i> hesitate to ask, so we can see what can be improved, especially in the
</I>><i> light of the current wiki which is a little bit too short :
</I>><i> <A HREF="http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=sysadmin">http://mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=sysadmin</A>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> If I have questions or ideas i'll ask.
</I>Of course i'll be an idea to fill the wiki with more details about servers.
><i> And among the various things, having documentation would help :)
</I>><i>
</I>What sort of documentation you mean ? Architecture schema ? Others ?
><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Another useful task would be to package various tools ( I do not have a
</I>><i> list at hand, sorry ), or improve our current one ( such as
</I>><i> mirrors.mageia.org, identity ), but this requires perl coding ( catalyst
</I>><i> mainly ).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We did receive request from translators about transifex too :
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-i18n/2011-June/002070.html">https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-i18n/2011-June/002070.html</A>
</I>><i> so that could be a task where people could help.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Now, if you feel we are asking a little bit too much ( as I said in the
</I>><i> presentation, maybe puppet is a little bit too intimidating ), there is
</I>><i> lots of others tasks that would be maybe as useful and interesting
</I>><i> ( like packaging, artwork, even if the second is much more complex to me
</I>><i> than system administration :) ).
</I>><i>
</I>Puppet not intimidating me, unlike learn it was envoying ;)
