I'm at the Linux Belgium training center, where this last week before FOSDEM the DebConf video team is holding a sprint. The nice folks of Linux Belgium made us feel pretty welcome:

Yesterday was the first day of that sprint, where I had planned to blog about things, but I forgot, so here goes (first thing this morning)

Nattie and Tzafrir

Nattie and Tzafrir have been spending much of their time proofreading our documentation, and giving us feedback to improve their readability and accuracy.

Stefano

Spent some time working on his youtube uploader. He didn't finish it to a committable state yet, but more is to be expected today.

He also worked on landing a gstreamer pipeline change that was suggested at LCA last week (which he also visited), and did some work on setting up the debconf18 dev website.

Finally, he fixed the irker config on salsa so that it would actually work and send commit messages to IRC after a push.

Kyle

Wrote a lot of extra documentation on the opsis that we use and various other subjects, and also fixed some of the templates of the documentation, so that things would look better and link correctly.

Wouter

I spent much of my time working on the FOSDEM SReview instance, which will be used next weekend; that also allowed me to improve the code quality of some of the newer stuff that I wrote over the past few months. In between things, being the local guy here, I also drove around getting a bit of stuff that we needed.

Pollo

Pollo isn't here, but he's sprinting remotely from home. He spent some time setting up gitlab-ci so that it would build our documentation after pushing to salsa.

This should really have been the "day two" post, but I forgot to do that yesterday, and now it's the end of day three already, so let's just do the two together for now.

Kyle

Has been hacking on the opsis so we can get audio through it, but so far without much success. In addition, he's been working a bit more on documentation, as well as splitting up some data that's currently in our ansible repository into a separate one so that other people can use our ansible configuration more easily, without having to fork too much.

Tzafrir

Did some tests on the ansible setup, and did some documentation work, and worked on a kodi plugin for parsing the metadata that we've generated.

Stefano

Did some work on the DebConf website. This wasn't meant to be much, but yak shaving sucks. Additionally, he's been doing some work on the youtube uploader as well.

Nattie

Did more work reviewing our documentation, and has been working on rewording some of the more awkward bits.

Wouter

Spent much time on improving the SReview installation for FOSDEM. While at it, fixed a number of bugs in some of the newer code that were exposed by full tests of the FOSDEM installation. Additionally, added code to SReview to generate metadata files that can be handed to Stefano's youtube uploader.

Pollo

Although he had less time yesterday than he did on monday (and apparently no time today) to sprint remotely, Pollo still managed to add a basic CI infrastructure to lint our ansible playbooks.
