Onboarding

Workflow

  1. A PMC Member nominates a new SASA member as a committer since we store items in SVN for configs NOTE: If they later produce code, they should request that permission from the PMC.
  2. If the vote is successful, they then follow all the normal committer guidelines to get them an Apache ID including an appropriate committer license: https://www.apache.org/dev/new-committers-guide.html
  3. After the Apache ID is setup and given to the new team member, see the Important Resources below to complete setup.
  4. Someone with Karma needs to:
    *Approve request to sysadmins mailing list
    *Add them to ContributorsGroup and AdminGroup on Wiki
    *Open a JIRA ticket at issues.apache.org similar to INFRA-14045 to get them access to SA servers

Acronymns

*Apache Software Foundation (ASF)
*Bugzilla (BZ)
*Apache SpamAssassin (SA)
*PMC (Project Management Committee)
*SVN (SubVersioN)

...

OPIE is required to sudo to root. The basic idea is to setup an OPIE passphrase which is never entered into the ASF server but used to create a response to copy/paste at the sudo prompt.

PGP Key

  1. Add your PGP key in https://id.apache.org.
  2. Setup your PGP key page at http://people.apache.org/~user:
    *sftp://user@home.apache.org
    *Create ~/public_html dir
    *Setup index.html with PGP key and link to PGP asc file. TIP: wget http://people.apache.org/~kmcgrail as a starting point

Infrastructure

Standards

*Apache.org standard of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
*Cron entries should be in new standard locations /etc/cron.d, /etc/cron.daily, etc. and avoid using user's crontab
*Custom scripts should reside in /usr/local/bin if they are not direcly related to SpamAssassin processing that should be in /usr/local/spamassassin
*Symlink scripts from /usr/local/bin to /etc/cron.d, /etc/cron.daily, or /etc/cron.weekly. This provides easy discovery and future management by others on the sysadmins team.
*Scripts and cron entries should mail output to the sysadmins mailing list
