WineConf 2019 Call For Presentations

[WineConf](https://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2019) is the annual conference for the Wine project. While the focus tends to be on developers the broader Wine community is invited to attend. [RSVP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSVP) if you are interested by using [the RSVP form](https://www.winehq.org/wineconf/rsvp).

Traditionally the conference is held in the USA one year, usually in the city of St. Paul in the state of Minnesota where [CodeWeavers](https://www.codeweavers.com) is based, then elsewhere in the world the next two years. The 2017 conference was in Wroclaw, Poland and 2018 was in The Hague, Netherlands. As a minor break from tradition the 2019 conference will be held in the city of Toronto in the province of Ontario, Canada on October 12 and 13.

The conference locations chosen are usually proposed by Wine contributors who live in the area. Current invites include Japan and the city of Austin in the state of Texas, USA.

Travel financial assistance is available for significant Wine contributors, limited by available funds, through the [Wine Development Fund](https://www.winehq.org/donate) managed by the [Software Freedom Conservancy](https://sfconservancy.org). You can also donate to the fund to help contributors attend who otherwise couldn't afford to.

Presentations can be anything related to Wine including various related projects, packaging, dependencies, and deployment stories or case studies. Examples include AppDB, Wine-staging, Mono and Gecko integration, Linux and OS X kernel aspects, X.org and Wayland, audio stacks, DRM/copy-protection, security, containers, networking, multimedia (Gstreamer), typography (fonts), and desktop environment integration. Large deployment stories in schools and businesses are also of interest.

Other activites include group dinners, bug jams, and sightseeing. International attendees often show up a few days early for the latter.

Because of Steam Proton there may be a few people from Valve attending this year.

LinuxLists.cc - a threaded LKML archive

Hey everyone,

I created a threaded Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) archive called [LinuxLists.cc](https://LinuxLists.cc). It archives the main linux-kernel mailing list, along with linux-kernel-announce, linux-ext4, linux-wireless and other feature-specific lists. It is designed like a message board, with features like user profiles, search, RSS feeds and permalinks.

It's been a fun project to work on. Please check it out and let me know how you like it, or if you have any suggestions!

Is it possible to torrent over anonsurf? PopOS / Linux 19.04 Gnome 3.32

I am using PopOS and fairly new to linux world. I got anonsurf installed, however not sure why my torrents are not starting to download while its on. Any help on this is highly appreciated and thank you all in advance!

I am using qbittorrent currently. If there are any suggestions on staying 'safe' with IP masking other than the anonsurf method, please let suggest!

netdata, the open-source real-time performance and health monitoring, released v1.15 !

Hi all,

we just released **netdata v1.15** !

This release contains 11 Bugs Fixes and 30 Improvements.


We are very happy and proud to include two major improvements in this release, an aggregated node view and the new database engine.


You can read about Netdata Cloud and the future of netdata here: https://blog.netdata.cloud/posts/netdata-cloud-announcement/


**Other major additions**

We have added support for the **AWS Kinesis backend** and new collectors for **OpenVPN**, the **Tengine web server**, **ScaleIO (VxFlex OS)**, **ioping-like latency metrics** and **Energi Core node instances**.

We now have a new, **"text-only" chart type**, **cpu limits for v2 cgroups**, **docker swarm metrics** and improved documentation.

We continued improving the **Kubernetes helmchart** with liveness probes for slaves, persistence options, a fix for a **Cannot allocate memory** issue and easy configuration for the kubelet, kube-proxy and coredns collectors.

Finally, we built a process to quickly replace any problematic nightly builds and added more automated CI tests to prevent such builds from being published in the first place.


**Improvements**

- Support for aggregate node view,
- Database engine,
- New collector modules:
- Go.d collectors for OpenVPN, the Tengine web server and ScaleIO (VxFlex OS) instances,
- Monitor disk access latency like ioping does,
- Energi Core daemon monitoring, suits other Bitcoin forks,
- Collector improvements:
- Add docker swarm manager metrics to the go.d docker_engine collector,
- Implement unified cgroup cpu limit,
- python.d.plugin: Allow monitoring of HTTP(S) endpoints which require POST data and make the UrlService more flexible,
- Support the AWS Kinesis backend for long-term storage,
- Add a new "text-only" chart renderer,
- Packaging and CI improvements:
- We can now fix more quickly any problematic published builds via a new manual deployment procedure,
- We added more tests to our nightly builds, to catch more errors before publishing images,
- API Improvements:
- Smarter caching of API calls. Do not cache alarms and info api calls and extend no-cache headers,
- Extend the api/v1/info call response with system and collector information,
- k6 noscript for API load testing,
- Kubernetes helmchart improvements:
- Added the init container, where sysctl params could be managed, to bypass the Cannot allocate memory issue,
- Better startup/shutdown of slaves and reduced memory usage with liveness/readiness probes and default memory mode none,
- Added the option of overriding the default settings for kubelet, kubeproxy and coredns collectors via values.yaml,
- Make the use of persistent volumes optional, add apiVersion to fix linting errors and correct the location of the env field,
- Fix incorrect parameter names in the README,
- Documentation improvements


**Bug Fixes**

- Prowl notifications were not being sent, unless another notification method was also active,
- Fix exception handling in the python.d plugin,
- The node applications group did not include all node processes,
- Installation would show incorrect message "FAILED Cannot install netdata init service." in some cases,
- The nvidia_smi collector displayed incorrect power usage,
- The python.d plugin would sometimes hang, because it lacked a connect timeout,
- The mongodb collector raised errors due to various KeyErrors,
- The smartd_log collector would show incorrect temperature values,
- charts.d plugins would fail on docker, when using the timeout command,
- Docker image had plugins not executable by user netdata,
- Docker image was missing the lsns command, used to match network interfaces to containers.
