infrastructure status

Hi all! It's has been silent a bit regarding the infra for RPM Fusion so I thought it might be a good idea to give a quick status update: During christmas I installed FAS (Fedora accounts system) on the CVS box. FAS is no must for us, but in Fedora is the responsible for a lot of things and thus might be nice to have. The most important things we need FAS (or something else that does the same) for: authentification for the look-aside cache, which is ATM the things that stops us from starting (plague is ready, CVS is ready, but we need to have the sources somewhere available). But I'm not good in such things, so it took a while I'm not finished yet (generating the upload certificate is not working yet); and I didn#t even find time for it in the past two weeks. Jonathan Steffan offered to help, but he has no account yet (I afaics can't create one). That's one problem. The other one: the machine which hosts the xen instances for cvs and plague seems to crash every few days. That now and then prevented that I could work on FAS, because it more then once happened just when I wanted to work on it :-/ I'm not sure how to move on (mainly because I haven't heard anything from thias (who hosts the boxes) in the past weeks). But afaics we need this: - someone (or better two or three persons) with sysadmin, python and CVS skills and more then a bit free time and who can set up and maintain the CVS/FAS box (I tried (and will continue to try if no one else shows up), but my skills are limited and especially my time is limited, as keeping Livna and EPEL running properly consumes most of it already) - I can continue to take care of plague (FYI: the configs can be found in CVS these days) - either fix the box that hosts the xen instances or find a different box and move them over CU knurd
