https://snowdrift.coop is in unannounced but public real-money beta. You can pledge to support the Snowdrift project itself. 49 people have so far. I'm not sure when they'll announce (mention of what's to be done) or presumably later adding other projects but good to see progress.

We are working on bigger changes that should be present when more eyeballs hit the site.

@sazius@pump.saz.im I wonder how useful it would be to have OMEMO in telepathyThat would probably be quite useful. OMEMO seems to work nicely in Conversations (Android client).

GuixSD + Debian living happily together
Christopher Allan Webber at 2016-01-15T20:55:06Z
I now have GuixSD + Debian dual booting with an encrypted home partition on my Minifree x200... and now I have a working shared package store too. This means a user's Guix profile is available on both Debian and GuixSD. If I boot into Debian and install tuxracer via Guix and then boot into GuixSD, I can run tuxracer on GuixSD too. And vice versa!
Blogpost hopefully coming soon.

@cwebber@identi.ca definitely looking forward to reading that post and putting it into practice! Guix on Debian only at the moment due to perceived issues sharing an encrypted home directory with GuixSD dual boot.Kevin Everets at 2016-01-15T22:51:09Z

It's definitely possible to do the shared encrypted /home/, though it took me a bit to figure out. You just won't be able to do an encrypted LVM.

IMO It's not particularly relevant that OwnCloud has a web page you can login to. I'd be worried more about PHP, if I were looking for something to worry about. :-)

Aufklärung findet inzwischen in satirischen Sendungen statt. Da ist er wieder: der Hofnarr aus dem Feudalismus.
Jauch und Varoufakis - "Das ist der eigentliche Skandal"Eine Woche nach Yanis Varoufakis' Stinkefinger geht Günther Jauch wieder auf Sendung. Eigentlich müsste er sich entschuldigen, sagte der Journalist Jens Bergmann im DLF. Erst Jan Böhmermann habe mit seiner Satire die aufklärende Rolle des Journalismus übernommen.

Userops: Deployment for the People

New blogpost about "userops", both a mailing list / IRC channel (#userops in irc.freenode.net) and generally useful term to describe user-oriented deployment tools!

Community run code hosting
Tsyesika@io.theperplexingpariah.co.uk at 2015-03-07T18:32:59Z
Hey,
So as most of you know gitorious is being acquired by a GitLab and therefore will be shut down. The idea was brought up of possibly having a community run code hosting with issue tracker that will pool money, resources, time and experties to run and maintain a code hosting solution.
Maybe we could get a Mailing list and/or an IRC channel where we can figure out this and get a start. Anyone would be interested in using this and helping in some way or another we can discuss it on this thread until we decide where else to go.
The questions we really need to figure out are:
- Is there enough interest to make this worth while?
- What software should we use?
- Where should we continue to disucss this (I think I'd prefer a Mailing list for this)?
I would obviously want to use this for my own personal projects and possibly Inboxen (would have to speak to moggers first). GNU Mediagoblin would obviously want to use it too.

Show all 23 repliesGitlab uses Github to host their code now whilst that's "dumb" I wouldn't say it's a deal breaker per se however, there is an issue suggesting they use Gitlab to host their code, it says:
"The primary goal is private hosting service. So it's not the best choice for an open source project."
Might want to take that into consideration also when weighing up the options, if they don't intend it to be publically accessable and for Free software maybe in the future they'll make decisions which reflect that, or maybe they have already.

That issue is fixed https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/
But the same one (I looked a few days ago and couldn't actually find a fied issue thoguh) for gogs does give me pause about that project.Mike Linksvayer at 2015-03-07T21:31:43Z

I'm definitely pushing for org-local hosting via cgit and git-http-backend. I don't have much need for the other pieces... Review for me is best over email, etc. I'm hoping this will cause more distribution.
I very strongly dislike the Gitlab situation. Their copyright assignment does not guarantee that contributed features remain free. To me, that is completely unacceptable.jasonriedy@fmrl.me at 2015-03-07T23:05:43Z

I completely indulged my most base and selfish urges this weekend and engaged in my true passion: writing Free Software, instead of doing all the Conservancy work that I should have been doing.
I wrote a patch to etckeeper that closes Debian Bug #613278, and allows the user to edit the commit message automatically made by etckeeper after package manager operations.
This all started because I simply wanted to have the aptitude command that caused the dpkg changes to appear in the etckeeper autocommit when running aptitude. Joey Hess confirms there's no way to get this info other than walking the process tree back up from the dpkg hooks calls, so the next best thing was closing the bug above so that I could at least past in the aptitude command myself into the commit log.
The patch only worked for Git because it's the only one of the VCS's that seemed to have a --edit/-e option, which forces editing of the commit message even if you've specified the commit message another way on the command line.
That led me to also write this patch for Mercurial that adds the --edit/-e option and submit a bug for Bazaar to add the same.
This all took me most of the weekend, which is insanely embarrassing. My hacking skills are, of course, quite weak these days. :-/
