Back to Blogging World …

1 Comment

I guest almost more than half year that i left my blog world. maybe now i need to start it back since i left my previous work place Open Source Competency Centre from june 2010.

Now im working with B.I.S R&D SDN BHD , a bit introduction about the company im working now :

BIS which is the acronym was incorporated in the year 2005 with the specific aim of developing a full fledged ERP solution for Malaysian Small to Medium sized businesses.

This was due to the fact that that at that point, SMEs did not have access to quality ERP software at a affordable price. All the ERP suites available were for large enterprises and required a large amount of investment in time and money to implement and deploy.

Our first year of operation was spent on Research & Development of our propriety ERP solution which we have named ‘I.ES ERP’. The completed and functional version of the software was  successfully completed by end of year 2005. In early 2006 we started to market and sell the software solution and have successfully deployed the solution to many companies in Malaysia.

Since then, BIS has grown from strength to strength and acquired more and more clients and success stories.

Our solution currently more to OSS software and application development , OpenBravoUbuntu . As for now we use Ubuntu as our platform for all range from desktop, Point of Sale (touch screen) , server and Cloud EC2. I’ll post the photo of POS that using Ubuntu as Operating System with OpenBravo POS in my next post.

Here are some event with the Ministry of Education Malaysia that we are promoting the Ubuntu for Education:

I think i stop at this point 1st then i’ll continue in my next journey …..

Merging two team account in launchpad

2 Comments

On 2009-06-13,

I’ve requested the merge of two teams:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-my with https://launchpad.net/~malaysianteam to be https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-my.

We just want it to be more official Ubuntu Loco team as ~ubuntu-my already been approved as subteam of Ubuntu Local Community Teams and Approved LoCo team rather than ~malaysianteam. It easier to manage ~ubuntu-my such as contact for loco team and LoCo Directory.

So i create a question at launchpad here

After about a month, my question get solved then i manage to merged the two team with the help of Launchpad Team for solving this bugs on Launchpad and also thanks to Andreas Moog for his helpful script and his effort.

So here i would like to share amoog script:

#!/usr/bin/env python

# Copyright Andreas Moog <amoog@ubuntu.com> 2009
# Licensed under the GPL
# coding: utf-8

import os, string, sys
from launchpadlib.errors import HTTPError

oldteam = “malaysianteam”
newteam = “ubuntu-my”

def connect_lp():
# For now, use the staging environment
try:
from launchpadlib.launchpad import Launchpad, EDGE_SERVICE_ROOT
from launchpadlib.errors import HTTPError
from launchpadlib.credentials import Credentials
except ImportError:
print(“ERROR: it seems that python-launchpadlib is not installed”)
exit(1)
launchpad = None
# the credentials and cache-dir used by py-lp-lib
lp_cred = os.path.abspath(‘./lpbinding/moveteams-lplib-cred’)
lp_cache_dir =  os.path.abspath(‘./lpbinding/cache’)
# load stored LP credentials
try:
print(“Get Launchpad Settings”)
lp_cred_file = open(lp_cred, ‘r’)
credentials = Credentials()
credentials.load(lp_cred_file)
lp_cred_file.close()
launchpad = Launchpad(credentials, EDGE_SERVICE_ROOT, lp_cache_dir)
except IOError:
launchpad = Launchpad.get_token_and_login(‘moveteams’, EDGE_SERVICE_ROOT, lp_cache_dir)
lp_cred_file = open(lp_cred, ‘w’)
launchpad.credentials.save(lp_cred_file)
lp_cred_file.close()
if launchpad is None:
print(“Something bad happened: I can’t connect to Launchpad :-( .”)
print(“Launchpad connection is working”)
# TODO: Implement support for arbitrary projects
return launchpad

launchpad = connect_lp()

members = launchpad.people[oldteam].members

for member in members:
print “Adding %s to the team” % member.display_name
try:
launchpad.people[newteam].addMember(person=member, status=”Approved”)
except HTTPError as error:
print “The error %s has occured” % error

Thanks also to Ubuntu-MY LoCo Member for their support and VOTES :)
