 TODO: Regina will send my ssh key to wildintellect (robe)

Sys Admin Contract

• [wildintellect]:

<Fill report here>

robe: as I recall the ball is in Martin's court. His company got the approval and his staff need to allow allocation of time to OSGeo on his timesheet before he can start.

wildintellect: Yes that's the latest, it's signed, just waiting on Martin to start. We need to prioritize tickets/tasks.

Migration off old hard-ware AND Virtualization, Containerization, or None

• Discussion pending on list (moderator: could not find the mail thread)
• Needs:
  • trac is slow - Chris Gorgi made some changes to Apache config which helped, and suggests changes to DNS
  • osgeo6 is running an ancient Debian, needs to be updated

Leaning to libvrt since it can be done with one server (less resource intensive than ganeti), with possibility of moving to ganeti next year when we get more hardware.

TODO: Alex to resend quote to mailing list for final purchase approval.

<Fill report here>

• TODO: provide clarification of new hardware purchase options suitability for hosting type. (wildintellect)

Others

<Fill report here>

• Trac SVN sluggishness past 1-2 months

   TODO: Regina to look at postgres load and see if anything amiss there and if any query bottlenecks

GeoForAll DNS

Did anyone make contact with Jason per the ticket? Jeff M. and Vicky were listed on the last agenda, if they aren't going to tackle it someone else needs to take the ticket.

robe: strk gave me credentials for Pair so I think I can handle this if Jeff and Vicky are tied up.
