Ancor González Sosa

from YaST Team at SUSE Linux

Ancor González Sosa got hooked on Free Software while studying Computer Sciences in the University at his homeland (Canary Islands) at some point near the year 2000, becoming a GNU/Linux addict. In 2002 he discovered Ruby which quickly became his language of choice (first for Qt based applications and later for web development). Being a very active local Free Software advocate, he was recruited in 2013 by the openSUSE Team at SUSE Linux as a web developer.

Since then, as you can see in his github profile, he has been trying to break the Build Service, openQA, YaST, the Travel Support Program application, software.o.o, progress.o.o, OSEM, Jangouts and several other tools related with the openSUSE project. Since July 2014 he is a proud member of the YaST Team at SUSE.

No video of the event yet, sorry!

The goal of this session is to foster a conversation about the new installer developed by the YaST Team and how it can fit in the future plans for openSUSE.

First, we will provide a high level view of Agama, the new experimental installer that you can see in action at a separate session at openSUSE Conference 2024.

Then we will dive into several specific topics like concrete features, current status, future plans, comparison with YaST, compatibility with AutoYaST profiles and much more.

Finally we want to use this session to gather opinions from the openSUSE community and to discuss how we want to move forward regarding the installation of our operating systems in the mid and long terms.
