### System health monitor
**Project**: System health monitor
**Brief explanation**: A tool that informs the user about common system and configuration issues. Some of this is already available, but scattered across different places. See related issues: [6663](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/6663), [2134](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2134)
**Expected results**:
- a tool / service that checks for common issues and things needing user attention, for example:
- some updates to be applied (separate widget already exists)
- running out of disk space (separate widget already exists)
- insecure USB configuration (USB in dom0)
- some system VM crashed
- ...
- a GUI that provides terse overview of the system state, and notifies the user if something bad happens
**Knowledge prerequisite**:
- Python
- basic knowledge about systemd services
- PyGTK (optional)

### Unattended Windows installation
**Project**: Unattended Windows installation
**Brief explanation**: Simplify Windows usage by providing a tool that perform unattended installation given required input data (installation image, license key, user name, etc). Similar feature is already supported in other virtualization solutions, including VMWare Workstation and VirtualBox. [Related github issue](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/4688).
**Expected results**:
- A template for `autounattended.xml` file for Windows installer - the template should have placeholders for settings that need to be provided by the user.
- A tool for generating actual `autounattended.xml` file based on the template and user settings.
- A tool for launching Windows installation, given installation image and `autounattended.xml` file (can be the same as in the above point).
- (Optional) Unattended installation should also include Qubes Windows Tools.
- (Optional) A tool should be able to use Windows license embedded in ACPI tables - [related discussion](https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/qubes-devel/0b7fabae-f843-e7ce-40cf-193326cecdb0%40zrubi.hu)
- User documentation
- Automated tests (unit tests, integration tests)
**Knowledge prerequisite**:
- Python scripting
- Linux administration, including handling loop devices, partition tables, filesystems etc
- For optional features, C language and x86 architecture (ACPI tables)
