We need a person who is interested in Storage. Distributed file
systems, databases, flat files - whatever. ;) This is a longish
project. We need to devise and implement a flexible storage solution
for large collection of arbitrary data units. The exact solution may not
be open sourced but any enhancements to the underlying systems will be
given back to the community. If it is possible, any generic solutions
encountered in this quest will also be given back to the community. We
will work on the GNU/Linux system for this. This person also has the
responsibility of getting up to 1 more people for this project if he
needs him. Person should have extensive programing experience in C and
should have in-depth knowledge in the above mentioned areas.
About us : Cleartrip is a company who wants to "make travel simple".
Hence more enjoyable and enriching. We try to use technology to solve
problems and invent better experiences in the travel domain. We have our
tech & design teams inhouse. Visit us at www.cleartrip.com.
Please write to me at quasi(a)cleartrip.com if you feel like it.

Hello all,
This is with reference to the wireless linux download idea that I had
posted a month ago. Just to refresh your memories, it consists of a
stand alone repo server that is linked to a WAP. So anyone and everyone
who want to download CD/DVD ISOs can visit the location with their
wireless enabled laptops and locally download the required isos. We can
also keep some LAN cables for older lappys.
Recently I bought a secondhand pc, an HP, AMD K6 450 MHz. with 128 MB
RAM, 40 GB HDD, CD ROM. It also came with a colour printer that was
serviced today. It only needs new cartriges now. I am keeping the
printer for personal use and it will be used to print the linux
brochures. A few at a time as per the need.
The pc box will be used for the WLD idea and I want to install it in any
institution which is willing to run it for 24 hours. The HDD was cleaned
and installed with the Debian Etch base package CD that I had downloaded
last month. So now Debian is up in command line. Net is up too. Apt is
giving some trouble as I did not use the mirrors during installation. I
tried various entires in the sources.list but it hangs midway and then
throws errors. It should be resolved with the blessings of the experts.
There are 4 primary partitions created in the box as follows:-
100 MB /boot
3 GB /
36 GB /var (for the web pages)
2 GB swap
Now the actual installation and setup stage begins and I would like to
know if anyone is interested in setting up the system. I feel that a one
or two day session in any place would be ideal where we meet as a group
and finish it up. We document the procedure to help others do the same.
Right now I don't have the budget to buy a wireless AP but I/we can pool
in later or use a secondhand one. Right now we can test the same with a
LAN cable and a laptop. I will bring the box with kb and mouse to the
venue.
JTD also had an idea of setting up Linux Radio Station through the WAP
and we can implement this idea too on this box.

Rony.
