** evidence of it in ansible and http://grafana.cloud.fedoraproject.org althought doesn't appear to be populated with data
* log01.phx2 system_ident needs updating
* When is best time to use IRC vs email?  Maybe list when coverage of majority of people work times.  So someone can know, if it's a good time to ask on IRC around now.
* hostinfo or sysinfo zodbot command like fasinfo.
** could be useful, pulll from system_indent somehow and apps.fp.o maybe
* add misc help to Zodbot wiki and also note in fi_apprentice page.
* What actions on should be done on discovering a possible problem?  report #fedora-noc, #fedora-admin, both, ticket in infrastructure?
* Suggest edit to status.fp.o on action for user to take on finding a problem and all is green.
* How useful are the other tags in the easy_fix list?
* TASK: create process overview on how changes are implemented.  IE describe change management system.  Maybe already done in SOP, possibly??
* Is there a newbie playground to set things up?  Possibly containing test system data.
 
=== Ideas, I'm Mulling Over ===
 
* Enable a way to search IRC logs without doing it yourself.
** mailing list is easy - can be done via hyperkitty
** Possible IRC archive solutions
*** https://botbot.me - channel op to subscribe
*** roll our own - using some existing stuff like zodbot etc
* Orientation SOP - is it targeted for sysadmin-main or fi-apprentice.

Old - Review shortly

  • Two ideas referenced from Fedora_Engineering/FY14_Plan
    • Improve Fedora Hosted - Something more like gitorious, gitlabhq, allura
      • | Allura seems to be way to go, keeping in line with current infra trends (python etc).
    • A Meeting App - next meetings, hot topics, who's saying what, etc. using meeting bot logs
      • fedmsg consumer (if meetingbot is a producer)
  • Idea site (possible name: idea-forge) - like brainstorm.ubuntu.com
    • There were issues with ubuntu'd idea site, that may not (or may) be applicable here.
    • python version of something like that (ideatorrent - inactive) or https://github.com/BBYOpen/BBYIDX
