Howdy,
I have experience with Drupal and may be interested in contributing with the website.
How does one join the scale-webdev team?

Hello,
As we mentioned in our update a few weeks ago, we are working to increase the openness of SCALE planning. With that in mind I’m going to try to send at least bi-weekly updates here on progress of our various projects. Hopefully the need for this will be obviated once the issues with mailing list are fixed and more teams are posting here directly.
Regards,

The SCALE team will be exhibiting at OSCON in collaboration with other LinuxFests.org events such as TXLF and SEAGL. We will also be sharing space with LinuxFest NorthWest. If you would like to help with producing flyers, or with staffing the booth please let us know! OSCON will be held in Austin May 16-19, 2016. Community Leadership Summit
LinuxFests’s newest member program, the Community Leadership Summit http://www.communityleadershipsummit.com will be held May 14-15, 2016 leading in to OSCON. Many SCALE team members will be present, if you are in the area please consider joining us as well. WebsiteOpen Source Website Code
Ron has posted all our drupal code to github https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/scale-drupal as agreed to in the post-con meeting on 4/16. If you have experience with Drupal or PHP development, we invite you to join the scale-webdev team. Prep Call For Papers
Ron has reset the CFP system and is looking for feedback. If you’d like to help test it out, please check the open github issue. https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/SCALE-Planning/issues/190 SCALE 15x ProgramCall for Papers
Shyam is currently working on writing our 2017 call for papers. Our goal is to launch it in mid May, ahead of OSCON but we may be delayed as we are still working on recruiting leads for many of the tracks. UpSCALE
Jason Hibbets and the OpenSource.com team have expressed interest in producing the SCALE lightning talks program in 2017. Hannah Anderson and Jason are working on what the new format will look like, we expect to have further updates closer to SCALE. We are excited to welcome Jason and his colleagues to the SCALE planning team. If you would like to participate as well, please reach out to Hannah. TechActUSA Hand Off
Josh Hoblitt, Ev Batey and Bala attended a meeting with Stu Sheldon (ActUSA) to complete a services handoff. Bala has posted notes to the tech list. Mail Migration
The INFRA sub-team completed the migration of email from ActUSA’s servers to Google Apps for Nonprofits. If you are having trouble accessing your SCALE email account for some reason please let us know by filing a ticket in github or emailing Josh Hobllit, Bala or Ilan. DNS
DNS for linuxfests.org/com/net and socallinuxexpo.org/com/net have been migrated from ActUSA to Amazon Web Services’s Route53. The code used for this migration is available on github https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/scale-dns/. If you would like to contribute to this or other SCALE infra projects we welcome your pull requests!
We are aware that as a result of this migration SCALE DNS services are now IPv4 only. This is expected to be temporary only, and was necessary to allow us to regain control of DNS to unblock our migration of mail and other services. The INFRA team is committed to ensuring that SCALE services continue to be available via both IPv4 and IPv6, we are currently evaluating long term DNS solutions. Mailing Lists and Wiki
We have not yet begun work on migrating mailman or phplist to alternate providers. We are currently evaluating a number of infrastructure providers. We promised to fix the settings on scale-planning to not strip FROM addresses, bounce messages when emails are rejected, as well as allow participation from all ISPs regardless of DMARC policy. Delivery on these promises is blocked on migration. We expect to have this done before the end of May. Website
Our websites remain at ActUSA until a new infrastructure provider has been selected. However, we have begun preparing automation tooling for deploying our web services. To this end, Ron Golan has made our drupal code available in a git repository https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/scale-drupal. The INFRA team has begun developing chef recipes https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/scale-chef for managing our web servers. The goal is to build these such that they can be tested locally in Vagrant. If you have experience with Chef for configuration management, I am sure that the team would be happy to have a hand in further development. Wiki
SCALE has historically maintained a private wiki for planning purposes. The wiki was Mediawiki based. The wiki remains online on ActUSA’s servers, but we have begun the process of migrating it using mediawiki-to-markdown https://github.com/philipashlock/mediawiki-to-markdown. We are currently working through some formatting issues, but expect to have the wiki ported to Github later this week. Want to lend a hand? Email bala@socallinuxexpo.org javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','bala@socallinuxexpo.org'); VOIP
SCALE has had a customer service line (+1-877-831-2569) for many years. The DID is via by Teliax http://www.teliax.com, and was historically terminated asterisk server maintained by ActUSA on our behalf. While in the past several SCALE staff members used it for inbound/outbound calls with SIP or IAX soft phones, these days the majority of calls are forwarded to individual’s cel phones. As such we are currently in discussion with Teliax about moving to a pay-as-you-go hosted PBX service they now offer. So far testing has been positive, but there is a caveat that we will need to change our users’ extensions. Current SCALE extensions are (3) digits, but Teliax only supports 2 or 4 digit extensions. Impact should be minor but we’ll need to go back and reprint any business cards as well as update our website. Other Projects
We have a number of other pending infra projects. If you’d like to participate please check our issue https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/scale-planning/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AINFRA queue for other areas you can lend a hand.
