RISC-V

This is the summary of the work done regarding the RISC-V architecture in Fedora.

  • F45 rebuild started — we’re trying to first focus on language toolchains — need to refer to Miro’s lightning talk from Flock on how they handled Python bootstrap
  • F44 is being kept up2date (there were some big updates, including GCC)
  • Kevin did the legwork to move away from old dist-git on fedora.riscv.rocks to forge.fp.o
  • Another K3 builder in Fedora Koji — another member added. (This might sound like a tame update, but all compute power is helpful / important to keep the build momentum :-))
  • Discussed some details of riscv64 in primary Koji ticket
  • Slides for Flock RISC-V update

AI

This is the summary of the work done regarding AI in Fedora.

QE

This team is taking care of quality of Fedora. Maintaining CI, organizing test days
and keeping an eye on overall quality of Fedora releases.

  • Flock & DevConf attendance, lruzicka gave a talk on openQA test investigation, adamwill gave a lightning talk with cle about Fedora CI improvements, several of us were involved in a workshop/roundtable about the viability/desirability of moving all testing to dist-git PRs, lots of productive side conversations etc., many about AI – trip reports / blog posts coming
  • On-demand openQA test of dist-git PRs in progress
  • Looks like we maybe found some new maintainers for packager-dashboard
  • Lots of work to enable testing of the huge OpenSSL 4 update for Rawhide, investigate a significant bug that showed up, and eventually bypass the test failures for that bug as it’s proving not to be possible to resolve in a reasonable time (the update needed to get merged)
  • Continued tech debt / enhancement work on blockerbugs, testdays-web and issuebot

Forgejo

This team is working on introduction of https://forge.fedoraproject.org to Fedora
and migration of repositories from pagure.io.

  • PTOs & travel
  • On Zabbix staging, now have a working template to monitor the Forgejo runnerhost VM and the runners themselves
  • Continued work on Private Issues (private comments refactoring)

UX

This team is working on improving User experience. Providing artwork, user experience,
usability, and general design services to the Fedora project

  • Beta Wallpaper ticket closed
