- \begin{itemize}
- \item Ian Murdock/Jackson makeshift scripts
- \item Monolithic perl dinstall written by Guy Maor

-\begin{frame}{History - Hosting}{\alert{Oh fuck, what just went wrong?}}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Under a desk @ cmich.edu
- \item First master.d.o by Bdale @ HP
-
-{\tiny It was an HP Vectra 486 tower system with 66mhz CPU upgrade, an
- Adaptec 1740A EISA SCSI controller and two disk drives. A 330Mb
- root disk and a 660Mb disk to hold the archive. Both were 5.25"
- full-height drives. All the pieces came off pallets of materials
- heading out for scrap. Before it left Bdale the archive disk got
- swapped out for a 1.3Gb drive, also 5.25" full height scsi and a
- cast-off heading for scrap.
-
- The first machine to host .debian.org using Debian.}

-\pause
-
- \item Moved to I-Connect
- \item Then to Novare for several years

-\subsection{Present}
-\begin{frame}{The Team}{\alert{Me fail English? That's unpossible.}}
- FTP Masters
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Joerg Jaspert - Ganneff
- \item Mark Hymers - mhy
- \end{itemize}
-
- FTP Assistants
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Frank Lichtenheld - djpig
- \item Mike O'Connor - stew
- \end{itemize}
-
- FTP Trainee
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Barry deFreese - bdefreese
- \item You?!
- \end{itemize}
-
- Since April 2008 we almost always had people in the FTP Trainee role.
-\end{frame}
-
-\section{The roles}
-\subsection{FTP Master}
-\begin{frame}{FTP Master}{\alert{Don't you kids take anything. I'm watching you. I've got eye implants in the back of my head.}}
-The FTP Master role, unix group \alert{debadmin}, is ...
- \begin{block}{(Lets cite Matthew Garrett)}
- ... responsible for maintaining the infrastructure
- required to support the archive. This takes the form of the scripts used
- for processing uploaded packages, but also the flow of packages between
- distributions.
- \end{block}
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Keep the archive running
- \item Keep the archive legal
- \item Support the teams that depend on it (Release, Security, soon backports/volatile)
- \item Keep the archive uptodate with the requirements of the project
- \end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{FTP Assistant}
-\begin{frame}{FTP Assistant}{\alert{Ganneff - see topic. our motto. yeah.}}
-The FTP Assistant role, group \alert{ftpteam}, created 2005, allows
-additions of people to the FTP Team without having to hand out full FTP
-Master rights.
-
-It allows
-\begin{itemize}
-\item to process NEW,
-\item to handle overrides,
-\item to remove packages.
-\end{itemize}
-
-Thus the most common actions can be done but the possible damage that
-can happen by accident is limited.
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{FTP Trainee}
-\begin{frame}{FTP Trainee}{\alert{Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try. \tiny \\ Hello i18n cabal. :)}}
-The FTP Trainee role, group \alert{ftptrainee}, was created in 2008 to
-allow easy training and testing of future team members.
-
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Initially called ``slave\_NEW''
-
-\pause
-
-\item 6 people trained so far
-\item 2 promoted to Assistants
-\end{itemize}
-
-Trainees can look at NEW and do the usual package checks, but they can
-not actually accept or reject a package. Instead they leave a note,
-which an Assistant or Master reads and acts on.
-\end{frame}
-
-\section{The job}
-\subsection{Archives}
-\begin{frame}{Archives}{\alert{You can't keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once, and move on.}}
- \begin{itemize}

- \item The security archive, security.debian.org
- \item (Soon) The volatile archive, volatile.debian.org (integrated
- into main archive)
- \item (Soon) The backports.org archive, www.backports.org (-> backports.debian.org)
- \end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{Removals and Overrides}
-\begin{frame}{Removals and Overrides}{\alert{mhy - I was upset to discover (via grepping my logs) that I actually said that quote in one of the subtitles verbatim}}

- \item (Semi)-Automagic via cruft-report
- \item Manual, with help from a nice html page
- \end{itemize}
- \item Overrides
- \begin{itemize}
- \item Priority / Section
- \item Override disparity
- \item Currently by mail, should be changed to using BTS
- \end{itemize}
- \end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{NEW}
-\begin{frame}{NEW}{\alert{mhy - Ganneff airlines: departing from a window near you}}
-
-NEW checking is about three things. In order of priority:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item trying to keep the archive legal,
-\item trying to keep the package namespace sane,
-\item trying to reduce the number of bugs in Debian.
-\end{itemize}
-
-A small list of most common checks
-\begin{itemize}
-\item Check the source for license problems
- \begin{itemize}
- \item incompatibility
- \item non-free license terms
- \end{itemize}
-\item (sane) package renames / splits
-\item Policy violation
-\item source for everything included?
-\item ...
-\end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
-
-\subsection{Code}
-\begin{frame}{Code}{\alert{Oh, so they have Internet on computers now!}}
-git clone https://ftp-master.debian.org/git/dak.git

- \item Make sure removals can happen (rev-deps anyone?)
- \end{itemize}
-\end{frame}
