Yesterday at the Open #Mainframe Project TAC meeting the #Linux Distributions Working Group was renewed for another year!
We bring open source devs from distributions and individual projects together for s390x porting, learn more and join our mailing list and meetings via our wiki page: https://wiki.openmainframeproject.org/display/LinuxDistrosWG #IBMZ #LinuxONE
As promised, I finally got that basic walk-through tutorial of setting up a #CircleCI Machine Runner for s390x running on a free of charge CircleCI account and IBM #LinuxONE Community Cloud instance published.
Enjoy! https://community.ibm.com/community/user/ibmz-and-linuxone/blogs/elizabeth-k-joseph1/2023/08/01/circleci-self-hosted-runner-for-linuxone-tutorial #IBMZ

And yes, Arsh was the *mentee* last summer. The student has become the master!
Details about the work proposed are outlined here: https://mentorship.lfx.linuxfoundation.org/project/9aaaa048-baae-4ec7-aedd-5d3594dd95d8 #mainframe #zSystems #LinuxONE
The #Zowe and #COBOL from the are also participating, learn more in this blog post: https://www.openmainframeproject.org/blog/2023/05/08/omp-launches-applications-for-2023-summer-mentorships
I have a new title!
Global Head, Open Source Program Office for IBM zSystems & LinuxONE
It's a new role that I've been advocating for, so it's really exciting to see it happen.
Now the hard (but awesome!) work begins #opensource #IBMzSystems #LinuxONE

Nach meinem Umzug nach social.tchncs.de bin ich wieder #neuhier .
Ich arbeite bei IBM R&D im Bereich Linux für zSystems.
Ich werde hin und wieder Dokumente und Videos teilen, die in meinen Teams entstehen.
Ich freue mich über Feedback und Anregungen.
Außerdem fasziniert mich HW Entwicklung generell , Quantum und vieles aus Forschung und Wissenschaft
