Hi, I'd interested to become feature owner of release automation. I'm packaging syslog-ng for a couple of rpm based distributions (openSUSE/SLES, Fedora/EPEL) and for FreeBSD, so my main interest is ensuring that the release tgz files are all right. I can help you in the RPM part of your project and also a bit with OBS.

Hi,

I am taking this as an opportunity to introduce myself to everyone in the community. I got a bit late as I was busy in relocating back and finishing college paper work. Sorry for it ;-)

I am* Ankush Sharma (black-perl <https://github.com/black-perl>)* from India. I contributed to Mailman <http://list.org> last year. So, I will be working on the Automation Release <https://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng/wiki/%5BGSoC'16%5D-Automated-release-generation-for-Syslog-ng> project for syslog-ng this time. The project will mostly involve Python usage and Flask/Django later on.

The potential areas where any feature owner can look into are:

1) *Web interface: *An experimental web interface to track things during the release automation cycle would be handy. I am considering to use Flask/Django (web frameworks of Python) for it. You can suggest integrations to it or information you would like to see on the interface.

2) *Overall architecture: *We can discuss the flow from user perspective as well as the architectural view of the tool and you can suggest changes to it ;-)

Here is the link to the intro post : http://black-perl.in/black-perl-gsoc-with-syslog-ng/ <http://black-perl.in/black-perl-gsoc-with-syslog-ng/>. You can find a brief introduction to the project here and links to the detailed proposal.

I would love to talk to other guys who will be working throughout the summers as part of the GSoC program: @litterbear, @kvch, @PoOwAa, @Vithulan. It would be great if we can have chat sometime and get to know about each others' work !

Thanks !
