Maintainer needed for gentoo-sources-2.4 |
12 |
---------------------------------------- |
13 |
|
14 |
The Gentoo kernel team is looking for a maintainer for the 2.4 branch of the |
15 |
gentoo-sources package. Maintaining a kernel is a big job. A maintainer |
16 |
needs to have interest and energy, which probably indicates a genuine |
17 |
requirement to run a 2.4-based kernel. Interested parties must be capable of |
18 |
working on a team and keeping up with security issues in the kernel as they |
19 |
arise. The kernel team is willing to mentor someone to take on this role, |
20 |
provided the usual requirements for becoming a developer can be met. |
21 |
|
22 |
If you are interested in maintaining this package, please contact the Gentoo |
23 |
kernel team[1] for more information. |

26 |
|
27 |
If a maintainer cannot be found for this package soon, it will be masked in |
28 |
the tree pending removal due to lack of maintenance. |

------------------------------------------------ |
32 |
|
33 |
The Simplified Chinese translation team is seeking able-bodied individuals |
34 |
to begin translations of the Gentoo documentation. Qualified candidates will |
35 |
have good written English and Chinese skills. You can join the team on |
36 |
#gentoo-cn on irc.freenode.net. If you are interested in joining the team, |
37 |
send an email to gentoo-china@××××××××××××.com. |

45 |
This class is an introduction to Gentoo Linux. The second class will be held |
46 |

47 |
Building 56, room 114. This class is an advanced class on Gentoo and will |

The future of the bugday project. |
65 |
|
66 |
The Bugday project is a fast growing project which helps users to get |
67 |
involved with Gentoo by helping them learn how to fix bugs, helping each |
68 |
other and having fun). |
69 |
|
70 |
The Bugday team is currently going through a lot of changes which includes: |
71 |
|
72 |
* Bugday helpers.This is a new term which will allow users to help out |
73 |
with arranging Bugdays together with the team. They will receive a |
74 |
special Bugday helper cloak for their IRC account and should be |
75 |
available to help fellow users at Bugdays. The helpers will be the |
76 |
man-in-the-middle between the Bugday developers and users which will |
77 |
later on be the key players on moving the Bugday project to be |
78 |
completely user driven, except for the infrastructure hosting. |
79 |
* Social Bugdays The Bugday team are going to make some documents |
80 |
about how to start making Social Bugdays in your local Linux user group. |
81 |
The documents should describe briefly how to arrange the bugdays; what |
82 |
do you need to make sure you have and so on. |
83 |
|
84 |
If you would like to contribute, join the team on IRC at #gentoo-bugs on |
85 |
irc.freenode.net. |

64bit PS3 stage4 released to Gentoo mirrors |
93 |
|
94 |
This week Brent Baude[3] wrote about the work the PPC64 team is doing with |
95 |
Gentoo on the Playstation 3. They have currently made a PS3-LiveCD useful |
96 |
for testing Linux on your Playstation without performing an install. The |
97 |
LiveCD is based on GNOME and also contains applications including but not |
98 |
limited to Mozilla Firefox, Evolution, audacious, koffice, and IRC |
99 |
applications. The team has also produced a Minimal InstallCD with support |
100 |
for 64-bit userland and 32-bit userland stage4 installations. Both stages |
101 |
run an 64-bit kernel. In and effort to reduce compilation time on the |
102 |
Playstation, the team also has an extensive set of GRP repositories setup so |
103 |
users can quickly install Gentoo on their Playstations. In addition, they |
104 |
have 32-bit and 64-bit toolchains which the team hopes will mature to take |
105 |
further advantage of the Cell processor. |
106 |

In short, it's a viable desktop machine for email, browsing, music, office |
110 |
work, and much more. |

|
112 |
Also this week, the Linux Conf Australia[4] is being held at Sydney. Daniel |
113 |
Ostrow[5] is attending for Gentoo, where he is going to highlight the PS3, |
114 |
Gentoo, the LiveCD, and Gentoo stages. |

Belgium: #Gentoo-nl LAN, Arendonk |
164 |
--------------------------------- |
165 |
|
166 |
Dutch Documentation Lead Dimitry Bradt[7] and other members of the Dutch |
167 |
community organized a LAN party last weekend to celebrate the start of the |
168 |
new year. Because the location itself was between Antwerpen and Eindhoven |
169 |
(right at the border), a lot of people joined the Dutch conspiracy. At the |
170 |
LAN they enjoyed Quake3, worms3d, and, weird enough, ksudoku. Aside from |
171 |
that the attendees wrote an interface to control the sound system at the |
172 |
venue, and, of course, drank a lot of Belgian beers. |
173 |
|
174 |

175 |
|
176 |
Among the visitors, there was an international guest present, namely: Gentoo |
177 |
developer Alexander Buisse[8]. His impressions after the event also agreed |
178 |
that the Belgian beer was quite good. |

This section lists packages that have either been moved or added to the tree |
271 |
and packages that have had their "last rites" announcement given to be |
272 |
removed in the future. The package removals come from many locations, |
273 |
including the Treecleaners[15] and various developers. Most packages which |
274 |
are listed under the Last Rites section are in need of some love and care |
275 |
and can remain in the tree if proper maintainership is established. |
