We have a lot of money for travel expenses at the moment, and our ongoing
costs are low. I believe we could do something reasonable this time around
and if it becomes a recurring thing, get sponsors for it.

I must've missed it, but I really like the idea. Having a CI system
running there would be ideal.

I'm at kubecon right now, so let me know if I should ping/bother someone
with it.

I could also try to find osmenoe to talk about it. Would it be possible
to spin official archlinux docker images for our goals instead though?

Thanks!

[arch-dev-public] Access to CNCF community cluster

2018-12-12 Thread Bartłomiej Piotrowski via arch-dev-public
Few months ago I asked on arch-dev whether we would like to ask for
access to Cloud Native Computing Foundation cluster, which we could use
to experiment with automated package builds (or anything else really).

Following no response I actually did so anyway[1] and I have been
invited to CNCF organization on packet.net, where we can spawn new
dedicated machines for fun and profit. Obvious caveat is that we are
guests and shouldn't abuse it; less obvious one is that packet.net does
not support Arch out-of-the-box but it can be achieved via PXE and
cloud-init (currently residing in AUR?).

I just realized I never communicated this properly so here it is. Let me
know if there's anything you would like to try.
