Hi, Everyone.

My name is Jamie Duncan. I work in the Strategic Customer team at Red Hat. One of the big things that our more security-minded (and some of the vaguely paranoid) users ask for is an easier way to obfuscate data in an sosreport before they send it out to Red Hat Support.

There have been several failed attempts at this over the years, and soscleaner (https://github.com/jduncan-rva/soscleaner/) is another attempt at it. It's written pythong (2.x), and acts as a secondary tool to process sosreports after they have been created. After several talks with the sosreport developers and many talks with customers, this seems to be the work flow that they desire.

I've submitted soscleaner to Fedora under https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1104746 and am looking for a sponsor.

In my spare time I hang out in and around Richmond, VA and spend most of my non-working hours with my wife working on our old 1927 bungalow.

Have a good day, everyone.

Cheers,

Jamie Duncan, RHCE
