Various stuff to do on the servers to improve services or reliability

* upgrade Albiero and Sirius to Lenny
**Imply a reboot to change kernel => beware of eth0 vanishing
**physical access ?
*Hardware
**Switch gigabit between the eth1 of ganesh, albiero and sirius
**way to get albiero and sirius console from ganesh
**way to have ganesh console on albiero (iLO *does* fail)

* Database
**move them all to albiero
**move them all to pg 8.3 (requires lenny)
**do we need/can have a fall back if albiero is down

* Web
**optimize pg request
**make sure the web work even if the databases are down
***important for fastcgi (maybe tweak various time-out)
***avoid ugly error on apache
**mirroring/reverse-proxying/round-robining
***i think sirius is missing some crontab to get the svn and generate certain files
*** need to create dns entries for {www,images,download}{1,2,3,..} and matching vhost
**for when sh**t happens:
***prepare "maintenance" pages for www, trac, wiki, forum
***prepare simplified pages with only a few links

* Mail
**create an admin ml
** make sure the cron send to admin@ if and only if something bad happened

*Trac
**install openid plugin (if it still allow to use normal auth)
**send and parse commit log to ganesh
**reactivate all the trac
**trac2 on sirius/albiero

*Forum, wiki
**forum2, wiki2 on ganesh/albiero

*Monitoring
**Extract health information for disks on ganesh, albiero, skanda, sirius
***on albiero and sirius it will help when they are in lenny

*Bittorent tracker
*Fix Patchwork

SoC 2009/Audio Filter Improvement

2009-05-08T17:38:20Z

Xtophe: use template

{{SoCProject|year=2009|student=Xiang Wang|mentor=[[User:Dionoea|Antoine Cellerier]]}}

== Abstract ==
Lua script language has been used successfully to Videolan. First I'll try to create scriptable new audio filters in lua and enable users to create whatever audio filtering function they want in a Lua script. The second task is to implement new algorithm for 3D effects of Videolan filters.

== Timeline ==
This is an estimation.

''' May 23 - June 25''' Lua script
