LTS & ELTS Report for January 2023
In January I spent 4.5 hours on Debian LTS, resulting in no uploads:
- Work on backporting security fixes to ceph, which I still haven't tested yet, so it hasn't been uploaded.
In January I spent 0 hours on Debian ELTS. I'm cutting my LTS & ELTS hours down to 0, for the next couple of months, as I'm sailing and have more limited time.
During the month, Freexian sponsored 8 hours of 37 I spent on Debian:
-
debian.socal infrastructure administration:
- Handling an outage on matrix.debian.social due to a full disk. This happens somewhat frequently, the database grows fast, we need to implement proper monitoring...
