Re: [DISCUSS] Graduation

2012-05-02 Thread Aaron Peeler
I feel we have meet our diversity issue and also expect to add more
committers over the next couple of months. I would positively support
a vote for graduation.


I agree on the other points mentioned.

Status page needs to be updated. We can work on this part easily.

The web site needs to be migrated off confluence. Has anyone
researched other CMS options for the website. I think this would be a
good community discussion thread. Which CMS, the layout, (content,
documentation, design ideas, etc.)

Re: VCL 2.3

2012-05-02 Thread Aaron Coburn
Dmitri,
you can also set a default ItentityFile in the ssh configuration, i.e.:

IdentityFile /etc/vcl/vcl.key

Depending on how you want this set up (whether to apply only to certain hosts 
or to be globally applicable), you can put this in /etc/ssh/ssh_config or in 
/root/.ssh/config

This can be a useful setting, especially for manually accessing VM nodes, since 
you can then entirely omit the -i flag.
