[00:55:13]<colan>maybe we can steal code from this DRD thing. :)

[02:43:04]<cweagans>seen ergonlogic
[02:43:04]<hefring>ergonlogic was last seen in #aegir 2 days 18 hours ago saying 'gusaus: well, the published distros are certainly possible targets, but we intend to support Aegir more generally. So custom distributions, sites, etc.'.
[02:43:55]<cweagans>hefring: tell ergonlogic when you have a sec, can you ping me re the aegir coop?
[02:43:55]<hefring>cweagans: I'll pass that on when ergonlogic is around.

[03:49:40]<mstenta>cweagans: what is the aegir coop?
[03:51:27]<viashimo>http://coop.aegirproject.org/
[03:55:07]<ergonlogic>mstenta: The Aegir Cooperative is a new organization that we're forming to provide "vendor" support for Aegir
[03:55:07]<hefring>ergonlogic: 1 hour 11 min ago <cweagans> tell ergonlogic when you have a sec, can you ping me re the aegir coop?
[03:55:44]<ergonlogic>most of the core team, along with a number of active community contributors are involved
[03:56:35]<ergonlogic>here's a basic run-down of the services we're looking to provide initially: http://bit.do/aegir-support
[04:00:56]<mstenta>ergonlogic: awesome
[04:01:02]<mstenta>sounds like a great idea
[04:02:12]<ergonlogic>mstenta: I can't take credit :) Richard Stallman suggested it
[04:03:05]<mstenta>ergonlogic: suggested it to the aegir community specifically? or as a general suggestion for communities like this?
[04:03:16]<ergonlogic>to the Aegir community
[04:03:26]<mstenta>wow awesome! :-)
[04:03:28]<ergonlogic>we invited him to the Aegir Summit in NYC last year
[04:03:33]<mstenta>very cool!
[04:03:37]<ergonlogic>and we discussed it at some length
[04:03:42]<ergonlogic>agreed :)
[04:03:46]<mstenta>it's a very neat model
[04:04:37]<ergonlogic>we'll be building out a web presence and more detailed docs over the coming weeks and months
[04:04:42]<ergonlogic>so stay tuned :)
[04:05:48]<mstenta>i will!
[04:34:13]* Yaazkal has joined #aegir
[04:46:52]<bgm>sorry for the FAQ: i have a user who wants access to their backups. besides backup_migrate, are there alternatives with aegir?
[05:17:41]<viashimo>bgm: I think there was some way to see backups through the interface, but I don't recall which module supplies that tab on the site node
[05:19:17]<bgm>viashimo: yeah, although I guess I should specify: I don't want to give them access to Aegir either :)
[05:19:35]<bgm>I was thinking of maybe a module in their site that would give them access to their backup
[05:20:42]<bgm>but maybe I should just make backup_migrate work. for some reason, it didn't want to save my settings properly.. feels clunky and insecure
[05:21:40]<viashimo>bgm, ah okay. I've not seen anything like that myself. Also, I think the /var/aegir/backups isn't normally readable by www-data so you might have to change that, or find a way of queueing a task to copy / link the file into privates/files
[05:22:07]<bgm>yep, many signs that I am probably thinking of things I shouldn't be doing ;)
[05:29:29]* boshtian has joined #aegir
[05:31:05]<mstenta>bgm: yea, you would probably be best off keeping backup and migrate, and maybe find a way to expose that for them
[05:31:30]<mstenta>bgm: but be sure to consider the risks... make sure everything that's stored in the database is ok to be shared
[05:31:59]<mstenta>not sure if B&M has granular permissions for allowing them to download backups without being able to restore them...
[05:32:16]<mstenta>but you may be able to write a custom module to just give them a link to the most recent, or something like that
[05:32:26]<mstenta>depends on what you need
[05:35:54]<bgm>hehe, accidental backup restoration.. that would be chaos indeed (and a security issue, since we don't let them play with permissions/super-admin)
[05:36:45]<mstenta>yea - it starts to beg the question: do they really need access to the backups in the first place?
[05:37:34]<bgm>imho any service should let users download an archive of their data on demand
[05:38:27]<bgm>I can understand them not fully trusting the service provider. I've been helping out this org, but they have a huge tech debt.
[05:39:16]<mstenta>yea, i agree
[05:41:01]<mstenta>maybe you could write a module that builds it on-demand, but uses B&M in the background

[06:17:18]<ergonlogic>bgm: the backup manager feature will make a temporary download link available, iirc
