Welcome to the sidux wiki

Table of Contents? | Deutsche Startseite
Here the first ideas:
We love Debian Sid (aka "Unstable") and believe in it's innovative power. It is by far the largest, most secure and up-to-date software repository available. Unfortunately, the Debian installer does not support Sid and upgrading from either Testing or Stable to Sid can be painful and demanding. Using debootstrap to create a Sid system leaves the average user with headaches and a lot of additional work to do by hand.
That is where sidux jumps in. We plan to provide 3 or 4 carefully balanced Sid snapshots each year, together with easy and fast installation options (from iso files, but probably also using other technologies such as scripts together with netinstall or cdebootstrap). We enrich the distribution with a properly patched version of the most recent kernels, improved hardware detection, ready to go drivers, helpful scripts and anything we think is useful. We strive to package properly and contribute all our suitable work back to Debian.
We understand sidux is a base system for further customisations and adaptations to special needs (laptop, desktop, server or special purpose workstation). It can be used in private and corporate surroundings and makes a fine platform for appliances. It will always remain a 100% Debian Sid compatible system.

Who undertakes which responsibilities?

Please add here your user name and tasks/areas where you feel you can/want help us. Responsibilities are decided in a democratic and unbureaucratic style at sidux.
  • devil offers support for the masses on irc & forum, administer the forum, news, translations (in the future maybe packaging, just learnig that the debian way)
  • x-un-i can hack a bit on shell, can put some documentation together (well i'll need someone to fix my spelling errors), support people
  • bluewater - Documentation Structure and 'that worked - oops that didnt work testing'
  • Bodhi-Baum can make translation, documentation and looks out for new and usefull software
  • hjt - vdr (video disc recording)
  • RoEn - testing, wiki documention, support for dvbx
  • slam does whatever is needed - organisation, PR, web master, design, dokumentation and translation, some coding, ...
  • bfree - testing and hacking (perl, bash, c, php, whatever) and klik (make fullstory package suitable for sidux and add any server support intelligence)
  • piper offers shared support (with devil) for the masses on irc & forum, translations (in the future maybe packaging, just learning, and want to learn)
  • Richard - proofread most anything in English or Spanish. Point me to what you need. Testing.
  • LessWire - coding in c, php, basics in bash, some experience in remastering, admin of a dedicated server

Where do we want to be in 3, 6, 12, 24 months?

  1. InitialRelease

    3 months ...hopefully a release before the end of the year with highly acclaimed recognition

  2. Future Releases

    6 months ...
    12 months ...
    24 months ...
    48 months --> world recognition ;-)

How we think about using the GPL?

We simply think that the GPL is the only acceptable license we like to use. Compatible licensing is OK, however. We still need to talk about dual-licensing.

Why do we not include non-GPL packages and non-free content?

Because they are not free, not open sourced, or otherwise legally/technically problematic for us. However, while we will endevour to assist people using hardware with non-free drivers we will always use free drivers by default when available.

How are we going to help people with common commercial stuff?

We need to talk about that, too.
h2 can probably provide a script for these things and draw them from a separate server, if everybody here can live with that.
Useful pages: FormattingRules, WikkaDocumentation, OrphanedPages, WantedPages, TextSearch, SandBox.

Willkommen im sidux wiki

(ja, es gibt eins ;-)) This is though as a playground for finding common goals, milestones and definitions for the project. Please understand it as an internal sandbox, where we can play with ideas - no beautification necessary ;-).
Hier erste Ideen:

Was ist sidux?

sidux iist ein Betriebssystem basierend auf einem Linux Kernel, Debian's aktuellster branch ("Sid" genannt) und zusätzlichen freien und OpenSource?-Anwendungen.

Warum gibt es sidux?

Wir lieben Debian Sid (aka "Unstable"), glauben an seine Innovationskraft und brauchen ihre Aktualität. Es ist bei weitem die größte, sicherste und aktuellste Software-Quelle, die es gibt. Allerdings wird Sid vom Debian Installer nicht unterstützt und das Upgrade von Testing (oder auch Stable) hin zu Sid kann anspruchsvoll und schmerzhaft sein. Per debootstrap ein frisches Sid-System aufzusetzen verursacht dem durchschnittlichen Anwender einige Kopfschmerzen und eine Menge zusätzlicher Anpassungen, die er in der Regel von Hand vornehmen muss. Andere schöne Distributionen basieren leider nicht mehr auf Debian Sid.
Hier greift Sidux ein. That's where sidux jumps in. Wir veröffentlichen 3-4 Mal im Jahr einen sorgfältig ausgewogenen Sid-Snapshot ( als Iso-File, aber möglicherweise auch mit Nutzung anderer Technologien, etwa Skripte in Verbindung mit netinstall oder cdebootstrap). Wir bereichern die Distribution mit gut gepatchten und aktuellen Kernels, verbesserter Hardware-Erkennung, einsatzbereiten Treibern, nützlichen Skripten und anderen, uns nützlich erscheinenden Dingen. Wir sind bestrebt, unsere Arbeit auch Debian direkt zu Gute kommen zu lassen.
Wir verstehen sidux als ein Basis-System, dass für weitere Anpassungen und Adaptionen an spezielle Bedürfniss (Laptop, Desktop, Server, spezielle Workstations). Es kann sowohl im privaten als auch geschäftlichen Umfeld genutzt werden und stellt eine gute Plattform für Anwendungen dar. Es wird immer ein 100% Debian Sid kompatibles System bleiben.

Beziehung zu Debian und anderen Projekten?

Our relation to Debian is being part of it, contributing to it and making use of it. We also co-operate with other open source projects who share our interests. Working together with commercial/corporate/governmental entities is not excluded and might be possible for sidux, but is not planned at this very early stage of development.

Wer übernimmt welche Verantwortung?

Füge deinen Benutzernamen und die Aufgaben / Bereiche ein, in denen du uns helfen kannst. Verantwortungen werden bei sidux in demokratischer und unbürokratischer Weise entschieden.
devil Bietet Unterstützung für die Massen in IRC & Forum, admininistriert das Forum, schreibt News und macht Übersetzungen.
(in der Zukunft vielleicht Packaging - da lernt er nämlich gerade den Debian-Weg).
x-un-i? kann ein bisschen an der Shell hacken, kann Dokumentation zusammen stellen (Naja, ich brauche jemanden, der meine Rechtschreibfehler korrigiert), unterstützt die Leute allgemein.
bluewater∞ Dokumentation, Struktur und 'that worked - oops that didnt work testing'
Bodhi-Baum∞ Dokumentation schreiben, Übersetzungen machen, nach neuen Programmen Ausschau halten.
hjt∞ alles rund um VDR (video disc recording)

Wo wollen wir in 3, 6, 12, 24 Monaten sein?

3 Monate ...hoffentlich noch ein Release dieses Jahr mit guter Resonanz.
6 Monate ...
12 Monate ...
24 Monate ...
48 Monate --> Weltweite Bekanntheit ;-)

Wie denken wir über die GPL?

Für uns ist die GPL die einzige akzeptable Lizenz, die wir nutzen wollen. Kompatible Lizenzen sind in Ordnung. Wir müssen über Doppel-Lizensierung nachdenken und sprechen.

Warum enthält sidux keine Pakete, die der GPL nicht entsprechen oder sogar unfrei sind?

Weil sie nicht frei sind, kein OpenSource? darstellen oder aus anderen Gründen gesetzlich bzw. technisch problematisch für uns sind.

Wie helfen wir Leuten, die mit kommerzieller Software Probleme haben?

Darüber müssen wir noch reden.

Wir veröffentlichen 3-4 Mal im Jahr einen sorgfältig ausgewogenen Sid-Snapshot ( als Iso-File, aber möglicherweise auch mit Nutzung anderer Technologien, etwa Skripte in Verbindung mit netinstall oder cdebootstrap). Wir bereichern die Distribution mit gut gepatchten und aktuellen Kernels, verbesserter Hardware-Erkennung, einsatzbereiten Treibern, nützlichen Skripten und anderen, uns nützlich erscheinenden Dingen. Wir sind bestrebt, unsere Arbeit auch Debian direkt zu Gute kommen zu lassen.
Wir verstehen sidux als ein Basis-System, dass für weitere Anpassungen und Adaptionen an spezielle Bedürfniss (Laptop, Desktop, Server, spezielle Workstations). Es kann sowohl im privaten als auch geschäftlichen Umfeld genutzt werden und stellt eine gute Plattform für Anwendungen dar. Es wird immer ein 100% Debian Sid kompatibles System bleiben.

Beziehung zu Debian und anderen Projekten?

Wo wollen wir in 3, 6, 12, 24 Monaten sein?

3 Monate ...hoffentlich noch ein Release dieses Jahr mit guter Resonanz.
6 Monate ...
12 Monate ...
24 Monate ...
48 Monate --> Weltweite Bekanntheit ;-)

Wie denken wir über die GPL?

Für uns ist die GPL die einzige akzeptable Lizenz, die wir nutzen wollen. Kompatible Lizenzen sind in Ordnung. Wir müssen über Doppel-Lizensierung nachdenken und sprechen.

Warum enthält sidux keine Pakete, die der GPL nicht entsprechen oder sogar unfrei sind?

Weil sie nicht frei sind, kein OpenSource? darstellen oder aus anderen Gründen gesetzlich bzw. technisch problematisch für uns sind.

Wie helfen wir Leuten, die mit kommerzieller Software Probleme haben?

Darüber müssen wir noch reden.

Willkommen im sidux wiki

(ja, yes, there is one ;-)) Here the first ideas:
We love Debian Sid (aka "Unstable"), believe in it's innovative power and demand it's actuality. It's by far the biggest, most secure and up-to-date software repository available. However, the Debian installer does not support Sid, and upgrading from Testing (or Stable) to Sid can be demanding and painful. To debootstrap a Sid system leaves the average user with headaches and a lot of additional work to do by hand. Other fine distributions unfortunately have recently stopped to base on Debian Sid.
That's where sidux jumps in. We provide 3-4 times a year a carefully balanced Sid snapshot, together with easy and fast installation paths (on iso-files, but probably also using other technologies, i.e. scripts together with netinstall or cdebootstrap). We enrich the distribution with proper patched most recent kernels, improved hardware detection, ready to go drivers, helpful scripts and whatever we think is useful. We are striving to properly package and contribute all our suitable work back to Debian.
We understand sidux as a base system for further customizations and adaptions to special needs (laptop, desktop, server, special purpose workstation). It can be used in private and corporate surroundings and makes a fine platform for appliances. It will always remain a 100% Debian Sid compatible system.

Relations to Debian and other projects?

Who overtakes which responsibilities?

Please add here your user name and tasks/areas where you feel you can/want help us. Responsibilities are decided in a democratic and unbureaucratic style at sidux.

bluewater∞ Documentation Structure and 'that worked - oops that didnt work testing'

Where do we want to be in 3, 6, 12, 24 months?

3 months ...hopefully a release before the end of the year with highly acclaimed recognition
6 months ...
12 months ...
24 months ...
48 months --> world recognition ;-)

How do we think about using the GPL?

We simply think that the GPL is the only acceptable license we like to use. Compatible licensing is ok, however. We still need to talk about dual-licensing.

Why do we not include non-GPL packages and non-free content?

Because they are not free, not open sourced, or otherwise legally/technically problematic for us.

How are we going to help people with common commercial stuff?

We need to talk about that, too.
