It might be nice to provide a web irc gateway for the big bosses in case they need to ping people who typically hang out there. There could even be a channel on oftc somewhere where knowledgeable people could hang out to answer VIP questions. Just an idea [[User:Sethwoodworth|Seth]] 19:40, 21 August 2008 (UTC) |

Your ideas
IRC gateway for the Big Bosses
It might be nice to provide a web irc gateway for the big bosses in case they need to ping people who typically hang out there. There could even be a channel on oftc somewhere where knowledgeable people could hang out to answer VIP questions. Just an idea Seth 19:40, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
I-g documentation discussion
Currently most sysadmin documentation is on OLPC internal wiki, which is generally only open to NDA'ed employees and select contractors.
Here are some proposals on how to publish and protect i-g documentation.
- Put docs, passwords and other information onto a protected area of teamwiki.
- Put the information onto public wiki, and use encryption such as gpg to encipher sensitive data such as passwords.
- Use git, and rely on git access controls for protection. Possibly transclude git to wiki.
- Put data into a text file on the root directory of a machine.
Please edit and add arguments pro and con.
