[Qgis-psc] Helping on the QGIS system infrastructure

[Richard Duivenvoorde]

Hi Ludovic,

Maybe we can do a small chat (irc or some video thing like jitsi.meet)
so we know a little more about your skills and strengths.

We have 3 or 4 servers, running:
- apache (serving sites and docs)
- docker (running plugin site (Django and Postgres), and building
website, one serving Stripe)
- debian
- we build stuff local, on server or travis.com
- tests (OGC etc)

There is some stuff here:

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Sysadmin

So if this ticks something, contact me :-)

We could get help with:
- moving the new plugins website to a whole new machine
- create makefiles to build docs automagicaly
- whatever comes to mind...

For access on our servers I need your public key (and maybe a preferred
nick/name) because we only give key-ssh-access.

There is a email group (admin at qgis.org) where certain messages go to,
and most other admins are subscribed to.

So, Welcome and both Juergen (jef) and me (duiv) are often on IRC, or
let's meet somewhere else.

Regards,

Richard Duivenvoorde
