Could we do it? sure. Do we want to? I don't think so. Does freenode need us to? I doubt it. 19:26:05 <CodeBlock> it'd be cool...probably not practical though. 19:26:24 <nirik> It kinda makes you a target too... for DOS, etc... which I don't think we want really. 19:26:27 * CodeBlock is fine with closing it 19:26:30 <wolfkit> freenode has been adding nodes like crazy lately, two a week, I don't think they really "need" it. it'd be great to get Fedora out there, but probably unnecessary 19:26:35 <nirik> also, it means you give root access to an external entity. ;) 19:26:50 <skvidal> nirik: I'm for closing it 19:27:04 * nirik would be happy to revisit if it turns out to be needed or desired. ;) 19:27:21 <nirik> wolfkit: yeah, seems much better than it was back when this ticket was made. 19:27:38 <marcelk1985> I suggest closing it. the security implications are too large if not done right, and the time need in order to do it right is considerable 19:27:51 <nirik> #agreed will close ticket 1882. 19:27:55 * pingou patched #605 19:28:00 <nirik> any other tickets from the past people want to bring up? 19:28:03 <wolfkit> plus, the ircd they use doesn't exactly play nice on cent/rhel (I know from experience chary isn't "happy" on it) 19:28:04 <nirik> .ticket 605 19:28:05 <zodbot> nirik: #605 (FAS2 entry for blog feed) – Fedora Infrastructure - https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/605 19:28:07 <LinuxCode> wolfkit, they are adding nodes to combat a DDoS 19:28:54 <nirik> pingou: on that, I think we also would need to change planet scripts to pull from that right? unless it's just informational? 19:29:00 <nirik> and we would need to fix docs. 19:29:03 <pingou> although I allowed only 1 blog/user 19:29:17 <nirik> and populate it from existing .planet files and remove them/note they aren't used. 19:29:40 <pingou> nirik: my thoughts as well, I would add a get_planet_config or something which would return the ini file desired 19:29:52 <nirik> or perhaps look at both? 19:30:43 <nirik> yeah, so needs more working... 19:30:49 <pingou> yup 19:31:37 <pingou> we could do something like: check FAS first, override by .planet 19:31:40 <nirik> any other old tickets to kill off? 19:31:50 <pingou> allow .planet to add one more blog or so 19:31:52 <nirik> pingou: yep. or vice versa 19:32:31 <pingou> so that'll be another ticket :) 19:32:38 <pingou> fix the planet script 19:33:23 <nirik> pingou: sure, blocking that one? 19:33:27 <nirik> how about: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1162 19:33:45 <nirik> patchwork sounds interesting, but perhaps it could be merged into the mailing list rework work stuff. ;) 19:35:10 <pingou> that's an idea 19:36:24 <nirik> ok, if no other dusty tickets... 19:36:28 <nirik> #topic Open Floor 19:36:34 <nirik> Anyone have anything for open floor? 19:37:13 <marcelk1985> what happens during open floor? 19:37:30 <smooge> if you have an issue you would like to bring up. this is the time to do s 19:37:33 <wolfkit> open floor is for general discussion, if you have anything to bring up that wasn't mentioned in the topics 19:37:37 <nirik> marcelk1985: anyone can bring up topics that were not convered before. ;) 19:37:48 <nirik> covered even. Like my poor speeling. 19:37:49 <marcelk1985> oh 19:38:08 <LinuxCode> nirik, ok, your poor spelling is ..appalling! 19:38:11 <LinuxCode> lol 19:38:13 <LinuxCode> jk 19:38:13 <CodeBlock> :) 19:38:18 <nirik> :) 19:38:20 <marcelk1985> very poor speeling ;-) 19:38:26 <wolfkit> action nirik needs to install a spellcheck plugin to his IRC client 19:38:34 <nirik> ha. ;) 19:38:56 <LinuxCode> wolfkit, I have one running and it does not help 19:39:19 <nirik> anyhow, if nothing else, will close out in a minute. 19:39:29 * CodeBlock would imagine it would false trigger a lot on linuxey stuff that isn't necessarily a real word. 19:39:54 <LinuxCode> CodeBlock, no, you just do not look all the time, before you hit the enter key 19:39:57 <LinuxCode> ;-p 19:41:05 <nirik> ok, thanks for coming everyone. :) Do continue in #fedora-admin, #fedora-noc and #fedora-apps 19:41:07 <nirik> #endmeeting
