• DNS records for the Debian Academy

    From Dashamir Hoxha@21:1/5 to All on Fri Sep 30 07:30:01 2022
    Hi,

    Debian Academy has been granted already a VPS for installing Moodle and
    other needed tools: https://salsa.debian.org/debian.net-team/requests/-/issues/10

    But we still need some help for registering the domain academy.debian.net, since this can be done only by a DD. The details of how it can be done are described here: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDotNet

    More information about the DNS records that need to be registered is given
    in this message:
    https://lists.debian.org/debian-academy/2022/09/msg00048.html

    Is there any DD that can help us?
    Alternatively, how can I get DD permissions, so that I can try it myself?

    If we are not able to add the DNS records, we should request the DebianNet
    team to shut down the provided VPS, because it cannot be used.

    Regards,
    Dashamir

    Hi,


    But we still need some help for registering the domain academy.debian.net[http://academy.debian.net], since this can be done only by a DD. The details of how it can be done are described here: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDotNet

    More information about the DNS records that need to be registered is given in this message: https://lists.debian.org/debian-academy/2022/09/msg00048.html

    Is there any DD that can help us?
    Alternatively, how can I get DD permissions, so that I can try it myself?

    What is your relation to the Debian project?

    I have not seen any contributions so far (besides from trying out Debian Edu), so I wonder what your motivations and goals are.

    Also, Debian Academy very much used to be run by project members (DDs). Where have they gone? Who is Debian Academy now?

    Since Jonathan Bustillos created the salsa issue and is also a member of the debian academy team, it is best if you ask them to do it. They are a DD already and would
    have access to master.d.o to do the required setups.

    Alternatively, how can I get DD permissions, so that I can try it myself?

    It is not something that can happen in a day out of the blue, I'm afraid.

    I try to take advantage of it, if possible. Like everyone else.

    Exactly. Besides DebianEdu, I am also trying to help Debian Academy, as
    much as I can.
    I consider my motivations and goals a private thing, so I'd prefer to not

    Good questions. Let's wait for their replies. It wouldn't be appropriate
    for me to speak for them.

    Sorry, I'm not looking to get involved in the academy project. My
    involvement was spinning up the VM for the debian.net team.

    You (Debian Academy) really do need to find Debian Developers to be part
    of your team. The debian.net team rules state that the infrastructure is
    for Debian Developers, not the broader community. We're spending Debian
    money on this infra, and that's where we drew the line.

    I know you are aware that the hosting of Moodle and such for Debian Academy is actually a solved issue.

    If Debian Academy wants to restart their efforts and wants a machine with Moodle and academy.debian.net pointing to it, all that is needed is a friendly ping with that information to the DD who has been managing it during the first iteration (which is me)
    .

    Thank you Stefano. You can still do it if you can (if you have time). I
    don't expect the DNS records to be changed frequently (unless the IP of the
    VPS is changed). So, I don't see much advantage in "owning" them ourselves (although I agree that this would be better).

    As Joost said, jathan has become a bit unresponsive recently, due to
    personal issues (as jathan said himself).
    Joost himself refuses to do it, and I don't understand his reasons (I don't think there is a need for a backup DD, at least it is not required for
    adding DNS records).
    If you add the DNS records, Joost can be a backup for sure (I'd be happy if
    he does).

    We have had discussions on the mailing list, we have had several
    meetings, where have you been? What kind of ping do you need?

    I think some more patience and understanding about how Debian works
    might go a long way in making this easier for you.

    Any DD can set up a subdomain on debian.net (as per https://wiki.debian.org/DebianNetDomains) - all that Dominik was saying
    is that he registered academy.debian.net before, so, he is the one
    person who is able to point it to a new location if needed (so, he's
    actually trying to help you here).

    Your information is outdated. Maybe it was 2 years ago. It is not now.

    If Debian Academy wants to restart their efforts and wants a machine with
    Moodle and academy.debian.net pointing to it, all that is needed is a friendly ping with that information to the DD who has been managing it
    during the first iteration (which is me).


    We have had discussions on the mailing list, we have had several meetings, where have you been? What kind of ping do you need?

    You know how the first iteration ended, don't you? We are trying to do something better this time. Maybe the "second iteration" is going to have
    the same end and the first one, I don't know. But we are giving it a try anyway.

    Dashamir,


    We have had discussions on the mailing list, we have had several meetings, where have you been? What kind of ping do you need?

    I consider your way of interacting with other community members as not helpful. And I ask you to reconsider it, and ask yourself whether you have the skills to drive a community project in Debian forward or not. I conclude that from my observations from
    Debian Edu as well.

    Our first encounter was you grabbing tasks in Debian Edu which others had stood up for, without properly interacting with them. I see the same pattern happening here, and it is the reason why I have refrained from participating in your efforts to date.

    The first iteration Endes because no content was produced, because the Academy team did not find the time. It did not end due to any technical issues or issues with the hosting. I see no reason why handing over hosting or DNS to you should change
    anything about the availability of team members producing content.

    Lastly, I do not need to attend any regular meetings in order to manage a VPS and a Moodle installation. I do not have time to get involved with Academy more closely than operating the necessary platforms, but I still can do that.

    What I will not do is point a Debian DNS record to a machine managed by you, because I had no chance to build enough trust in your work to date.

    The kind of ping I need is a mail with something like "Nik, can Teckids please provide a Moodle VPS for Academy again?". That does not require attending any meetings.

    Yet, please make sure that another DD from the Academy team steps up to get root access to that machine.

    Thanks Jonathan, but I am not having a hard time. If only it was just my impatience, but I am not a teenager.

    Any DD can set up a subdomain on debian.net (as per
    https://wiki.debian.org/DebianNetDomains) - all that Dominik was saying
    is that he registered academy.debian.net before, so, he is the one
    person who is able to point it to a new location if needed (so, he's
    actually trying to help you here).


    I'm afraid it is not so (look at the other message).
    But I am not going to engage in his discourse.

    But I am not going to engage in his discourse.

    I'm afraid you still refuse to learn about proceedings in the Debian project.

    Also, you seem to repeatedly read "I do not want to hand over full control to you" as "I do not want to help you".

    I offered to reestablish the Moodle hosting for your project. If you think this is not helping you, then this is something you have to cope with. My only condition was that you get another DD involved.

    Sadly, by now, I have well-founded reasons to believe that you have driven all DDs in the Academy team away with your attitude.

    And yet, I am still willing to support your efforts, if you show some will to cooperate instead of insisting on taking over full power right from the start.

    A possible way out:

    * Grant people access to the new VPS
    * People can work on the new VPS
    * Show the world the new work
    * Have future plans
    * Consider again the DNS change


    The road ahead with notes

    * People[1] can work on the new VPS
    * Show[3] the world[4] the new work
    * Have future plans[5]
    * Consider again[6] the DNS change


    [0] Give
    [1] Community
    [2] enable
    [3] have something to show

    [5] understand that it is never finish
