Plan to drop Mac OS X 10.6 support
by Stefan Baur 19 May '15

19 May '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi everyone, I would like to inform you that we're planning to drop OS X 10.6 support this month or during the next few months (depending on your feedback), as part of our ongoing effort to streamline and automate the build process for X2GoClient's OS X versions. Currently, we have to create a separate build for OS X 10.6, which, if we move to new (hosted and virtualized) build hardware, would probably double our monthly costs, so we're trying to avoid that. Rationale: OS X 10.6 is no longer receiving security updates by Apple since February 2014. For OS X 10.5, Apple ceased security support in September 2011. We continued to support OS X 10.5 in X2GoClient until April of 2012. That was a good 6 months over the official end of support from Apple's side. Following that logic, we should already have dropped support for OS X 10.6 around August 2014, so it's long overdue to do so. TL;DR: If you're currently using OS X 10.6 and have no plans or no way to upgrade to a newer release, please speak up now. We might consider providing OS X 10.6 builds of X2GoClient for longer if someone steps up and sponsors the work. - -Stefan - -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJVMBiTAAoJEG7d9BjNvlEZpoQIAI2/1qJWfadn+SRETTTD4Hvh 6vu8O16rZGz0X0+rj5lEyFcjRowlTEsiIws5Z/9mQqu/kBYr8+fG3zT2i+yLUamN adUBRFQcFFoS6Y579ZLIwDw9IOm1BJf4i+xmFb5WDflHET/E1uauOcF+XG9SDHQf WQrdN1Zbiu7VcKFXJbtFXAOsAuyLYI1iSTd54GurR12L0t8z8j54sP2VEzDynSX9 01frXMYwBMK+EHZoLjWcJdjHgre95VLqXx0zI1KbCYWP0BPHOikNZTtjIMYI77Qx hqTnZiennSBIscJtRhJhglYIQXDoVAqDAwiGsa+S4L9xZ5JKbYNrXmLraM1zcnc= =AMHP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

DebConf 2015, anyone?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi $LIST, it seems that until 2015-06-15, it's still possible to apply for a talk at this year's DebConf (taking place in Heidelberg, Germany from 2015-08-15 to 2015-08-22). Do we have any volunteers willing and able to attend and hold an X2Go-related talk there? Or some other presentation-like thing? Quote from http://debconf15.debconf.org/proposals.xhtml: "Please note, events are not limited to traditional presentations or informal sessions (BoFs). We welcome submissions of tutorials, performances, art installations, debates, or any other format of event that you think would be beneficial to the Debian community. " Also from that page: "Regular sessions may either be 20 or 45 minutes long (including time for questions)". If you're interested, please get in contact with *me*, so we can coordinate things. - -Stefan X2Go Event Organizer & Project/Community Coordinator - -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJVKjKGAAoJEG7d9BjNvlEZA+0IAKzIdgPsmTZ/ZNRKwgroKvwe jZ4u6JKoAc3bzT7nQ8utFFlxSmOkWTuWYhElKdv/M1N3yAiHSDefkytqrEUblh01 YMgdrZN10Pr4KzgzWSMnrh5jxxiSr0t80o98dKaKqKeqW87jcE1xkAIaRsYzx38X hWkTL9+l+GbGw1sNak4D2Zq7vJZ4dRJBO9wn36Wat+buZi5JOp8ZVCF28Vb+2UC7 O16Ce1CJS8MRkPjAQb4KoGtmOsu7VZ69qHOCx+k15e8uaw9EbypDO3JCNeINNnIp ibbHWwibTjPcybRR9G3fjnuvTqKDSrv9qGhAL0LxVS1xEKjoov5jlFneNHPFg/8= =1nX2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Let's schedule the date finding for the beginning of the meeting, please (or as soon as 99% of people are in the IRC channel). This assures that people don't have to run at the end of the meeting, while others are still trying to work out the date for the next meeting. > I'll be always available every 2nd. Thursday / Month.

Bugtracker and more
by Stefan Baur 13 Apr '15

13 Apr '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Mike#2, we've occasionally talked about it before, and I would like to discuss it in public now, so I'm drawing in x2go-project. A lot of us are frustrated with the user experience of our BTS. Has anybody used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phabricator before? Quote: "Phabricator is a suite of web-based software development collaboration tools, including the Differential code review tool, the Diffusion repository browser, the Herald change monitoring tool, the Maniphest bug tracker and the Phriction wiki. Phabricator integrates with Git, Mercurial, and Subversion." It would be nice to know if this suite would suit us - especially, if Maniphest turns out to be an easier-to-use bugtracker that still has some kind of "advanced" mode that can be interacted with via e-mail, just like our current BTS. Input, volunteers, opinions, anyone? - -Stefan - -- BAUR-ITCS UG (haftungsbeschränkt) Geschäftsführer: Stefan Baur Eichenäckerweg 10, 89081 Ulm | Registergericht Ulm, HRB 724364 Fon/Fax 0731 40 34 66-36/-35 | USt-IdNr.: DE268653243 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJVGUVUAAoJEG7d9BjNvlEZkt0H/1buuFfhKTfHMjwiDoCsnsjP HqoJ3zWLT3phvWEpx6hWyBrnEpNvdFFLRLYq9WRdVUVeVYSK2OqbesevwkAe1kRR hm2fOPApsk4r3CAnmISUGTuOd3+mnawei+Sgi42ErsLdi0TI1YSzsvLFrF5D98b5 RXRtMgqcuatfrlaHh1RDeqTCyfnESavQBkylShoOTuOwXDCco55hs+xSM1BADMiC BAxfGE2lWM/C9q+xrzUFmOpRh842DK6Qe/37K9s0sfMQRH+NZO5wNJmf5YnaZlcB +Bm4U5ikIKbO9qdXdH5riKby6uxxjLgii2UewQRyU6CRJnsg0WUOHo3YIIt2rwQ= =3jbi -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Setting up etckeeper + git on Japsand
by Michael DePaulo 10 Apr '15

10 Apr '15

Hi Heinz, Please confirm that it is OK for me to setup etckeeper + git on Japsand to revision control /etc/. Some quick tips on usage for everyone: 1. To basically "git add" and "git commit" everything after making a change, run "sudo etckeeper commit". You will be prompted for a changelog message. 2. if you do not run "sudo etckeeper commit" manually, it will be run automatically every night (/etc/cron.daily/etckeeper). 3. To view changes/history, run standard git commands with sudo under /etc/ . -Mike#2 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Mihai Moldovan <ionic(a)ionic.de> Date: Tue, Mar 31, 2015 at 6:26 PM Subject: Re: [X2Go-Dev] FYI: I updated the Fedora Rawhide mock files onjenkins To: Michael DePaulo <mikedep333(a)gmail.com> Cc: "x2go-dev(a)lists.x2go.org" <x2go-dev(a)lists.x2go.org>, "Heinz-M.

Generally more than OK from my side (as mentioned, I find the "plain" Debian way of (not) managing config files horrible), but please check back with Heinz, as it's his machine after all and he probably wants to be kept "in the loop" and approve of such drastic changes.
