I recommend you file a RFP bug as described here :

And also try cb2bib, which is in Debian. This is a robust solution to BibTeX

Lenovo discount portal update (and a few other things)

2020-09-02 Thread Mark Pearson

Hi Debian developers,

Following on from DebConf 2020 (which I thoroughly enjoyed - thank you!) 
the Lenovo portal that was announced is now available:


US: http://www.lenovo.com/us/en/Linux
Canada: http://www.lenovo.com/ca/en/linuxca

We're still working on getting other geographies up and running - not 
available yet I'm afraid.


You should just be able to register with your debian.org email address 
to get the discount on any Lenovo equipment. Do let me know if any 
problems.


We also have our first Linux platform up (X1 Carbon Gen 8 with Fedora). 
There should be a number of other platforms coming soon - we're working 
on those and I expect them to be out in the next few weeks. If you have 
any questions on our Linux platforms please let me know.


I did also try and get through the remaining questions that didn't get 
answered during the Debconf talk - so if your question didn't get 
answered at the time have a look at etherpad and check.


Thanks
Mark

Bug#969424: ITP: pyasn -- very fast IP address to Autonomous System Number lookups

2020-09-02 Thread Hans-Christoph Steiner
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Hans-Christoph Steiner 

* Package name: pyasn
  Version : 1.6.1
  Upstream Author : Hadi Asghari and Arman Noroozian
* URL : https://github.com/hadiasghari/pyasn
* License : MIT and BSD
  Programming Lang: Python, C
  Description : very fast IP address to Autonomous System Number lookups

 pyasn is a Python extension module that enables very fast IP address
 to Autonomous System Number lookups. Current state and Historical
 lookups can be done, based on the MRT/RIB BGP archive used as input.
 .
 pyasn is different from other ASN lookup tools in that it provides
 offline and historical lookups. It provides utility scripts for users
 to build their own lookup databases based on any MRT/RIB
 archive. This makes pyasn much faster than online dig/whois/json
 lookups.
 .
 The module is written in C and Python, and cross-compiles on Linux and
 Windows. Underneath, it uses a radix tree data structure for storage
 of IP addresses. In the current version, it borrows code from
 py-radix to support both IPV4 and IPV6 network prefixes. The current
 release is a beta. Compared to the previous version, it provides
 support for Python 2 and 3; adds new functionality, performance
 improvements, and unit-tests.
 .
 pyasn is developed and maintained by researchers at the Economics of
 Cybersecurity research group at Delft University of Technology
 (http://econsec.tbm.tudlft.nl). The package is used on an almost
 daily basis and bugs are fixed pretty quickly. The package is largely
 developed and maintained by Hadi Asghari and Arman Noroozian. Please
 report any bugs via GitHub (https://github.com/hadiasghari/pyasn) or
 email the developers.

I cant enter to my Lenovo account now. The discounts are great! If
anyone open her/his Lenovo Debian account, as Mark says, we need to wait
around 45 minutes and then everything works fine to login. Thank you
very much Mark! It is fantastic to have Lenovo with us,

Best regards

I've tried registering on the US website and it seems to work fine here. I'm
not completely sure how explicit the “rebate” is (and with the LABORDAY coupon
currently on the “standard” website it's not easy to compare). Anyway I didn't
investigate further because I'm from Europe so I'll wait a bit.

Actually I do, although it's not entirely linked to Linux. When configuring an
Intel platform there are two choices which are not always there but would be
interesting I think:

- - Disabling of Absolute bios agent
- - Activation of the High Assurance Platform bit (HAP) in the Intel ME
configuration

On the X1C configuration I tried, the “Absolute” stuff is there but one can't
change it. For the HAP the snippet is not there at all (although I think I
remember seeing it once)

Again thanks for the work enabling the portal.

Yeah I know the end-user / administrator can disable it in the BIOS settings,
but there's apparently a way to do it on the website and I was curious about
it.

Obviously that's only on Intel platforms (AMD has the PSP processor but I'm
unsure if there's an equivalent HAP stuff). This one actually *needs* to be
set by the OEM before end of manufacturing (flashing would work on older Intel
platforms but not the more recent ones). Some details can be found here:

This is great news, even if I do not live in the USA so this is not 
relevant for me at this time.
But you should be aware that not all developers choose to enable their 
debian.org email address, so given time it would be useful to have an

Thanks for your generosity here!

This announcement seems suitable for inclusion on these wiki pages.
You will need to register an account in order to edit them, if you
don't have one already. Inclusion on the latter means the announcement
will eventually go out to the debian-devel-announce mailing list.

https://wiki.debian.org/MemberBenefits
https://wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews

I note that some debian.org email addresses are guest accounts for
contributors who are not Debian members (although we do ask that they
don't use these addresses) and some are role addresses (for example
d...@debian.org corresponds to the Debian sysadmin team (DSA)) and some
of those teams may have recipients who are not yet Debian members.

Does the acceptance of role addresses mean for example that DSA could
buy discounted servers from Lenovo? We have received very favourable
quotes for servers from the local Austrian and Greek Lenovo offices
and turning that into a standard discount that does not require
country-by-country conversations with the local Lenovo offices would
be very helpful.

Many of the Debian membership benefits (link above) also apply to
Debian Maintainers (folks who are not members but can do unsupervised
uploads of particular packages) and Debian contributors in general,
has Lenovo considered including one or both of these groups in the
discount program?
