Re: Comments about Microsoft and the GPL

2009-07-21 Thread Keiran Smith
Well looks like us linux users can look forward to some of the instabilities
of windows in our Own Operating Systems. What are microsoft thinking

 Hey All,

 While this isn't 100% Fedora related, being such fans of upstream that
 we are, we can definitely go somewhere with this. You've probably seen
 in the news by now that Microsoft is making a pretty substantial
 contribution to the Linux kernel.

 http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2009/Jul09/07-20LinuxQA.mspx
 http://news.cnet.com/8301-13505_3-10290686-16.html

 http://www.networkworld.com/news/2009/072009-microsoft-linux-source-code.html

 And if you need a good laugh:


 http://news.slashdot.org/story/09/07/20/1643251/Microsoft-Releases-Linux-Device-Drivers-As-GPL

 The way i see it, is that we can do one or more of several things
 based on this. Of course we can continue talking about upstream as a
 path to success, but i'm wondering, being no marketing expert myself,
 what else can we do with such a message? Is this a message we can try
 to take around to various different people and push extensively as
 proof that the system works? Is this even something we can take to
 mainstream media even though we're so fond of staying out of it for
 the very minimal real effect we have? Or do we ignore it because it's
 not Fedora?

 Cheers,
 Yaakov

Re: SSH vulnerability

2009-05-19 Thread Keiran Smith
Hey Mike,

That is a very interesting find to me personally. System and Software
Security is something I have great interest in. I am a security advisor in a
datacenter in the UK. However the article
http://www.cpni.gov.uk/Docs/Vulnerability_Advisory_SSH.txt says this is a
very severe attack although the possibility of a sucessful attack is Very
low. But you can never be too careful about these things.
Software vendors may be getting more technicologically advanced but so are
exploit coders. For example PHP addslashes() was added to stop SQL Injection
exploits by adding a slash to every  quotation. Attackers realised PHP didnt
parse HEX code but mySQL Server did. This makes me wonder if The posibility
of an attack using this vulnerability is fairly high rather than low.

 We're used to thinking of Linux distributions being set in stone.
 They're either KDE or Gnome, use a certain kernel and bundle certain
 applications. But this doesn't have to be the case. If you find yourself
 making the same adjustments each time you install a new distribution,
 it's worth creating your own customised version. Revisor is a tool that
 lets you do just this, and in this tutorial, we'll show you how...

Hi Paul,
  I have alot of experience with vBulletin and I run a 133,000 member forum
currently. I will be more than happy to help you out.

2009/3/27 Paul W. Frields sticks...@gmail.com

 Hello all you brawny bosses of bare metal,

 Is there anyone on the Infrastructure team looking for a side project
 to help the at-large Fedora user community?  The Fedora Forum
 (http://fedoraforum.org) is looking for additional administrator help.
 The Fedora Forum is the unofficial help forum site for Fedora and has
 been helping the community for almost 5 years.  To be involved, you
 would probably need to:

 * have experience with vBulletin administration

 * have knoweldge of, and skills in, general system administration
  theory and practice

 * build a trust relationship with the community admins already on the
  job through friendly, helpful discussion and action

 If you're interested, please get in touch with me and I'd be happy to
 make introductions if needed.

 Please have a look at
 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Logo/UsageGuidelines
 Your design does not follow these.


 Beyond the usage guideline violation (sorry to spoil your fun), there is
 also the motto problem, infinity | freedom | voice is obsolete, it is
 replaced by 4F's freedom, friends, features, first

  Also, the concept is good.
 You may like to work with the artwork team on this. (cc ed.)

Its a nice Image. But I think fedora should have a sleek backgroud with a

Although some people have different tastes in how they want their desktop to

They always do :)

  Hey Community,

  The gist of what she said is that we can indeed
  do a hard cover full color book, but we would
  have to do so using off-set printing.
 
  And she could not give a cost estimate, because
  the cost would depend on how much color and the
  degree of difficulty for the printer in setting
  up the book.
 
  Off-set would probably create a much better
  looking book, as far as image quality goes.
  It is the industry standard for printing high
  quality books.
 
  But using off-set, each color page would
  require that four separate plates would have
  to be made to produce a color image. Blue, red,
  yellow, and black is the way they used to describe
  it, but now it is CMYK (short for cyan, magenta,
  yellow, and key (black)  We could, however, use
  a mixture of bw and color pages. Then we would pay
  less for the bw pages that don't have color on them.
 
  Still, since we are not driven to make a
  huge profit off of each book, we could adjust
  the book price to allow for the additional
  printing costs.
 
 With the current state of the economy and everything I want to make
 these books as affordable as possible to the consumers.

 I think paperback with color pages is the way to go. But we can vote or
 whatever on that later.

 More importantly, we need to decide the requirements for photos in the
 book. Nicu, can you help us out on that?

 Also I'm getting prepared on how tos on uploading photos to the wiki,
 release forms, etc. Once that's ready to roll, we'll have a process
 worked out for contributing your photos and stories to the book.

I was very pleased with myself about the outcome of the small talk
  which showed a lot of positive acceptance. I'm sure that I will be able
  to spread the Fedora philosophy in a wide way.

  Thanks! We have to be careful with this page though... a proposed
  feature is one that the feature owner has brought forward as seeking
  approval. Already a few are creeping on that are just ideas at this
  point.

 Good to get some eyes on those for marketing reasons.

 CategoryProposedFedora9 is being used a little too liberally,
  but that is okay for now.  Also there are features listed there that
  don't have a feature page behind them.

 /me points finger to Max Spevack ;-)

  I think it is better to just make a simple table of features we are
  thinking about for F9 and remove the % completion and status columns...
  we are trying to use this page for too many purposes and we don't track
  status on unapproved features.
 
  Once F9 kicks off I'd like to trim the page back to only list the
  approved features before it gets too long.  I do agree that it is a
  really good to have those features there so people can start to see what
  we are thinking about for F9.

 Precisely.

 Rahul

 Hi all,

 Are we hoping to get this finished in time for the F8 release?

 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/8/ReleaseSummary

 In my opinion, there's not too much work that still needs doing on it.
 I've been filling out a few more bits of information this morning, and
 I'll fill out a few more this afternoon too - anybody else able to help
 a little?

 What do people think? Is somebody still able to spin this into a PDF?

 Best wishes,

 Jon
