Right and the SN is XO specific - thought we want to use this mechanism 
as well in non XO land.

Is your main request to get it into 0.82.1? Is this only a temporary 
solution and we get something else later?

The main 'right way' in security terms is following the 'Plan A' that
I outlined in my other email. It is a ton of work and some parts
require infra in other tools that I'm not sure is ready... so as soon
as a security expert turns up, we'll charge him/her with implementing
it :-)

Plan A - HTTPS to the rescue

Use HTTPS and client certs. On the Browse.xo, either create a client
cert at first boot or derive one from the SSL priv key we already
have. Lacking a PKI ( in this case XSs will have self-signed certs,
and the whole network will often be offline), we will need to grab the
cert from the
XS at registration time so we can whitelist it for Browse.xo. This is
safer, allows us to upgrade later to always using HTTPS if desired.

It has downsides however
  - we'll have to change the registration protocol, and deal with
up/downwards compat issues.
  - https is significantly more costly in terms of CPU on the XS



Just to understand better.

Is the main issue that we have to change the protocol - or are you more 
worried about the CPU cost?

So as I understand the process: At registration time with the XS the 
cert is created and transferred to the client. Probably stored than in 
the profile. Browse does than integrate it when it starts. The cert 
integration itself in Browse should not be hard.

Thanks for clearing up,
Simon

Both. And also HTTPS network load, as HTTPS is a lot less cache-friendly.

You are right, it shouldn't be hard if you "seed" it in the same way
my patch is seeding the cookies.

Carol pointed out another alternative a couple of emails ago. Seems to
sidestep the registration rework, but may be complex to implement.

But I'm more than happy with my simple Plan C :-) - which is about as
safe as gmail over http as most people use everyday!

As save as having your email indexed by the provider... :)

When thinking about it a bit more - the big plus with your approach that 
it's only affects Browse - code wise, which is when back porting to 0.82 
a big plus, actually maybe the only way.

It still does work :) The backup_url is in gconf 
('/desktop/sugar/backup_url') now in 0.84. Once we have an url - we use 
this as a way to know we have been registered. You can un-register using 
the cp command line tool.

So the code in browse should for 0.82 use the old way of checking if we 
are registered and for the master code check the gconf value of 
'/desktop/sugar/backup_url'.

Make sense?

[Sugar-devel] consequences of re-registering with XS

2009-02-12 Thread Daniel Drake
Hi,

As I noted here:
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Deployment_wishlist#Delete_registration_info
we are in a sticky situation where a load of XOs are registered to one
XS, which no longer exists. We want to register them to a new one, and
we are having to manually go to each laptop and modify the sugar
config file to allow us to register again.

To avoid this situation in future (should we ever run into it again,
fingers crossed we won't), we are considering a small modification to
the paraguay OS build which makes the "Discard network history" button
also clear the XS registration information (by deleting the
server.backup1 line from sugar config). This code modification can be
done with a single sed call, since there is already an unused sugar
function to clear registration info.

Of course, this means that the users (children) can now trivially lose
their registration data. Are there any undesirable consequences of
this that I am missing?

For example, what happens if a user deletes the registration data and
then re-registers with the same server.. does the XS cope with that
happily?

Any other points I should keep in mind, or any other options to
avoiding this small nightmare in future?

Thanks,
Daniel

[Sugar-devel] joyride, staging builds, sugar releases

2009-02-12 Thread victor
Sorry to insist on this, but I have not got it quite yet.

Joyrides => obsolete (even though the builder script keeps
churning them out and telling the olpc devel list).

staging => what are these? Obsolete too?

release builds => only last week there was a release build
announced on the olpc devel list. Are these obsolete too?

And another thing: olpc-update is not to be used anymore,
or is it still on?

Any clarification greatly appreciated!

Obsolete, but not really obsoleted by anything usable *yet*.

This is where we are staging changes to be used in v8.2.1.

You are referring to the v8.2.1 candidate release? This is not
obsolete, it is being pushed to various deployments.

> And another thing: olpc-update is not to be used anymore,
> or is it still on?

It is still on for v8.2. It's future is perhaps a bit uncertain (maybe
once we have working pure-Fedora builds it won't be active for a
while, but it possibly will be resuscitated or replaced in future).


I think the real question is: who are you developing for?

v8.2 is pretty frozen and slow moving  - the upcoming 8.2.1 includes
only a handful of fixes (plus a couple of features for much improved
deployability, that do not really affect the user experience). It will
be adopted by deployments over the next few months, and will continue
to be rolled out for probably a long time (e.g. Uruguay still using
build 656 even though development terminated a long time ago).
There may be an 8.2.2 with a similar collection of small fixes,
depending on demand from deployments.

If you want to develop for these deployments on this timeline, then
you should work on top of 8.2 (sugar-0.82) and limit yourself to
activity-level changes only.


As for the future, the hope is that we will have a
similarly-functional OS that includes the latest version of sugar
asap. OLPC is working with Fedora on this, and while I suspect that
the end result will be pushed as a "reference OS" by OLPC, there are
also some other efforts which I think OLPC would probably be happy to
flash onto machines at the factory (I can't speak officially, I am
only a volunteer right now), including debXO, and a possibility of the
community taking the 8.2 OS release and adding sugar-0.84 and some
other things as an intermediate step before the pure-Fedora builds are
suitable replacements. However, I personally think that all of these
efforts are 6-12 months away (at least) from producing something
adoptable by deployments.

If you want to develop for the-future-with-unknown-timeframe, then you
should work upstream at sugarlabs for sugar-0.84.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [PATCH] webactivity: seed the XS cookie at startup

2009-02-12 Thread Carol Farlow Lerche
Martin, I want to understand what https traffic you are concerned will
affect performance and caching.  As far as I understand the need for https,
it would only be used infrequently, when reauthenticating to the server.
I.e..:

1. XO connects to Moodle without valid cookie and is redirected to https
login.

2. https client cert is exchanged, and cookie of limited duration is
planted).

3. XO connects to Moodle, cookie is valid, no redirection needed.

There might be particular use cases where the data in transit needed to be
protected against snooping, but a use case analysis needs to be done to
identify these.  I can't imagine that it would be needed in day-to-day
classroom use by students.

Added.

You might need to white-list buildbot in the list moderation.

[Sugar-devel] Notes on triage meeting

2009-02-12 Thread Greg Dekoenigsberg

erikos ran an awesome meeting.  My notes on what I think the purpose 
should be:

First Goal.  To go through all UNCONFIRMED bug reports and determine:

* whether the bug report is a dupe.  if so, close as Duplicate.

* whether the bug report is missing key info.  if so, ask questions in bug 
and set status to Needinfo.

* whether the bug is from a previous release and has already been fixed. 
if so, close as Obsolete.

* whether the bug is relatively minor.  if so, set to block next release 
(right now 0.86) and set status to "new".

* whether the bug is urgent.  if so, set to block current release (right 
now 0.84) and set status to "new".

Every bug should fit into one of these categories.

How does that sound?  Simple enough to get a good triage team off and 
running?

[Sugar-devel] Soas3 XO image quick report

2009-02-12 Thread Gary C Martin
Hi folks,

Here's just a very quick run through of the Activities currently part  
of the SoaS3 XO image that Marco provided last week to help get some  
wider SoaS testing going:

http://download.sugarlabs.org/soas/xoimages/

For the record, apart from some low level OS type issues (no camera,  
no sound, some odd Fedora login screen, no power saving, no screen  
brightness, some dodgy key bindings, and not much free nand space),  
it's a reasonable place to try out the new 8.3.x sugar changes and  
test your activities there.

I have a non-critical unsecured XO here for testing, so I used copy- 
nand from the open firmware prompt to do a clean install of the images  
Marco provided:

First the fail to launch:

Speak-9 --> no useful logs, assume some core lib is missing
Write-61 --> no useful logs, assume some core lib is missing
Joke Machine-8 --> fails to launch complaining about 'No translation  
file found for domain:'

Launch and casual usage was fine:

Analyze-8
Calculate-28
CartoonBuilder-1
Chat-62
Etoys-97
FlipSticks-1
Image Viewer-5
Jigsaw Puzzle-5
Jukebox-6
Log-16
Memorize-29
Moon-8
Paint-23
Pippy-30 --> number of examples fail due to missing imports (pygame et  
al)
Poll-21
Slider Puzzle-6
Terminal-16
Turtle Art-23

And finally:

Browse-103 --> launches and browses fine, but e, boy was it beaten  
with the ugly custom theme stick, was this intended? ;-)

Regards,
--Gary

P.S. Will be re-flashing this (and another) XO over to 8.2.1-800  
tomorrow for some OLPC release candidate testing.
