I'll pledge my time to do required security package publications on 014 and 
022. As security issues with packages in core arise, I will update the build 
system, re-roll the packages and publish them.

packages for these, right?

I have added a pull request for the openssl update to omnios-build, just to
see if anyone was picking these up.

https://github.com/omniti-labs/omnios-build/pull/105

I've updated my local omnios r22 package mirror and updated our servers too
but I've obviously had to disable package signatures.

Seems we don't currently have a maintained package repository although
people (including me) have volunteered to maintain it.

Couldn't agree more about github; it's where community happens.
If an org is started to manage assets, and it can likely pay for hosting
out of its operating budget.

Assuming we go with github this leaves mail list and/or forum and wiki
and/or web site to be decided. This tightly coupled with the domain
name so this will have to wait for this decision.

I have a VM on DigitalOcean doing nothing else than act as backup MX
which I could throw in as hosting for this?

Re: [OmniOS-discuss] To the OmniOS Community

2017-05-15 Thread Andries Annema

It seems indeed you did shake things up a bit.

To give my two cents in this: I am happy to help! Although I am not a 
developer - sysadmin at most, and even that is not my *primary* everyday 
function - I am always eager to learn.


My current state/skills regarding OmniOS (since 2014):

* am running two LTS (r151014 for now) boxes at home,

* non-global zones (LX zones not yet),

* KVM,

* some bash scripting skills (not even close to being an ace though),

* have done some compiling and IPS packaging while hosting it on a 
personal repo (but compiling skills are still novice)


* was/am planning to start using some Illumos-distro (preferably OmniOS) 
at my boss' office - where I'm the sysadmin - but as a result of these 
late developments I am investigating alternatives (ZFS-on-Linux, Docker, 
...) as well.


* willing to do some testing too - not too much on my production 
machines though, but I can setup some physical or virtual test environment.


* oh, and have been using Linux (Ubuntu, CentOS, OpenSUSE) since 2011.

I sincerely hope we can keep this thing going.

Regards,

Andries

It seems my rather pessimistic assessment has started something going.
We have several volunteers making offers of various skills and I'm
happy to join them.  My skills are:

* Programming in C, C++, Java, Bash but not PHP.

* Home-user level sysadmin (configure dovecot, DHCP, NAT, KVM etc.
   without necessarily fully understanding what I'm doing).

* Testing, provided failure won't destroy data or cause other
   non-recoverable errors.

We still need a leader/coordinator.  Theo, would Robert allow you to do
that in company time?  He did say "while some of our staff may continue
contributing" which kind of implies that he might.  That would really
help, because it's quite obvious to me that unless a serious company
stands behind OmniOS, the big guns that are prepared to pay $10ks a
year for maintenance will go elsewhere.

The next step is the establishment of some sort of foundation or
committee to coordinate the efforts of the volunteers.

I will also be glad to help with packaging. 

O+P is already running a repo on pkg.oetiker.ch but we have not widely 
publicized it.

My main use of omnios is as a server for kvm an lxzones, so I would also be

Oh, bummer... I hope you'd be around for the community effort too every now and 
then. ;) Thanks for keeping that ship afloat!

Dan,

What Linda says, times two!
*making a deep bow*

You really did a marvelous job. I sincerely hope that we, as a community,
can and will keep the ball rolling and make it even better ;-)
That said, it would be awesome if you are willing to contribute in the
future still, albeit at a lower frequency and intensity, obviously.

Thanks a lot and all the best of luck with your new challenges in life!

Cheers,
Andries

The decision-making was sensible for OmniTI, and I understand it completely.
With r151022, OmniOS should be at a nice long-term state (022 was always
intended to be LTS).

previously.
