We didn't spend too much time at DevConf, but we made a visit to the Fedora community table!

DevConf.CZ CfP now open

The calls for proposals for DevConf.CZ (18-20 February 2021) is open through the end of the month. This Red Hat-sponsored conference is a great opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with the community. For 2021, DevConf.CZ is a virtual event.

DevConf.CZ is looking for workshops, discussion sessions, and presentations, with a variety of length options available. This large community conference has tracks for a variety of topics including community, IoT, cloud/containers, microservices, networking, desktop, and documentation. Like in years past, there is a dedicated Fedora track. If you weren’t ready to give a presentation at Nest—or if you want to give it to a broader audience—this is your chance. You can submit proposals through the DevConf.cz CfP portal through 1 November.

Open Power Summit 2018 event report

February 4, 2019 / jcajka / Comments Off

With some rather unfortunate delays is my report from last year’s Open Power Summit. Let’s dive in it, without further delay.

It took place between 3th and 4th October 2018 in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It is event organized by the Open Power Foundation, steward of the Open Power CPU ISA. It is open and builds on top of the heritage of the past Power architectures, enabling any vendor or individual to dive in to the technical deeps of it or even implement it on their own.

At the venue there have been booths of different foundation members and affiliated organizations. Like Raptor engineering with their Talos II and Blackbird platforms on showcase, Mellanox with accelerators cards, Yadro with big-data memory(RAM) dense servers or OpenCAPI consortium with bunch of accelerators from various manufacturers that are leveraging the OpenCAPI standard, just to note few. To add on the OpenCAPI it is open offspring of the CAPI that has been introduced by IBM with their Power8 architecture.

Talk submissions are due in less than a week — Friday, November 11 at 11:59PM (UTC +1!). We’d love to hear from familiar experts and new voices, so if you have an idea, submit a talk here.

System CA certificate trust management review and planning meeting at DevConf

DevConf Fedora badge - System CA certificate trust management planning at DevConf 2016

System CA certificate trust management review and planning will happen at DevConf 2016 this year

The current system CA certificate trust store management tool as implemented by p11-kit supports only limited number of use-cases. We are trying to gather information from various people administering and developing for Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux on how it could be improved.

For this purpose we want to arrange an informal session during DevConf at Brno where we would discuss the current state of the implementation and gather input in the form of use-cases. These use-cases would be interesting to support with future development of p11-kit and additional tools.
