GTK+ 3.92

• GTK4's Vulkan Renderer Is Close To Complete

  Red Hat's Matthias Clasen has written a blog post concerning the changes found in the big GTK+ 3.92 development release that is pushing towards the GTK4 tool-kit release.

• GTK+ 3.92

  Yesterday, we released GTK+ 3.92.1, 重庆市. Since it has been a while since the last 3.91 release, here is a brief look at the major changes. This release is another milestone on our way towards GTK+ 4. And while a lot still needs to be done, this release allows a first glimpse at some of the things we hope to achieve in GTK+ 4.

Servers: Kubernetes in plain English, Serverless, Staging

• How to explain Kubernetes in plain English

  Talk containers with an IT pro for more than a minute and the conversation will inevitably turn to container management and orchestration. It might be easy to deploy a container, but operationalizing containers at scale — especially in concert with microservices — is not for weekend enthusiasts. It requires planning, and most experts say an orchestration tool is a must.

• Center stage: Best practices for staging environments

  We’re talking about staging because no one talks about it. It’s mentioned in passing as the annoying sidekick to production.

It’s considered such an obvious part of architecture that no one mentions it, no one details it, many people do it wrong—and some don’t do it at all.

Linux Foundation: Civil Infrastructure Platform, Community Data License Agreement (CDLA)

• Civil Infrastructure Platform releases Linux system for management of critical systems

  The Civil Infrastructure Platform project has released CIP Core, a reference minimal file system that offers a customizable environment that developers can use to test the CIP kernel and core packages. CIP aims to provide a base layer of industrial grade open source software components, tools and methods to enable long-term management of critical systems.

• Open-sourcing data will make big data bigger than ever

  Free software has been with computing since day one, but proprietary software ruled businesses. It took open source and its licenses to transform how we coded our programs. Today, even Microsoft has embraced open source. Now, The Linux Foundation has created a new open license framework, Community Data License Agreement (CDLA), which may do for data what open source did for programming. In Prague, at Open Source Summit Europe, The Linux Foundation announced a new family of open-data licenses. The CDLA licenses are an effort to define a licensing framework to support collaborative communities built around curating and sharing "open" data.
