Some preliminary ideas (I could elaborate any of them, if needed), if someone wants to co-mentor: - New widgets for libYUI (like proper bargraphs or native list selection) - Support in gettext and weblate for Ruby-style placeholders (maybe not big enough?) - Proper NFS client support in the Partitioner (instead of embedding yast-nfs-client... which is heavily outdated) - Better libYUI support for 4k, 8k... ∞K - A new/alternative (really simpler) YaST Users - Modernize some of those old modules we cannot drop but that are really outdated (yast-dhcp-server or yast-dns-server, for example). I would co-mentor any of those (or any other idea you can come with).
