Fedora... in lasers!
by Justin W. Flory 29 Nov '15

29 Nov '15

This Magazine article went out today and I think it would have high value being reposted / retweeted on the official channels. It shows off some really cool stuff that people are working on with Fedora. https://fedoramagazine.org/creating-laser-light-show-with-fedora/ -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

"Year in Review" Series: Collecting responses
by Justin W. Flory 26 Nov '15

26 Nov '15

Hey all, Bee and I were discussing in IRC this morning about the "Year in Review" series we are planning on doing into 2016. I was planning on having the announcement article prepared by our next meeting. However, it came up about the best way to (1) spread word to the other subgroups about writing an article and (2) how to best collect data for each subgroup to provide them an image-with-data. I feel like the best way to spread the word about this would be posting to each subgroup's mailing list... but I'm a little unsure of that and wanted to see what the rest of you thought. As for collecting data, this is easier with code contributions that are easily trackable in numbers. But for advocacy and other not-so-numbery tasks, like Ambassadors, Design, and Marketing, it makes their contributions to the Project a little more difficult to track. Curious to get some more input on this. For those celebrating, happy Thanksgiving as well! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

Top YouTube review of Fedora 23
by Justin W. Flory 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

Hey all, I was flipping through YouTube reviews of Fedora 23, and I thought the second top-viewed hit for a review was worth sharing: https://youtu.be/o-ABwueBMtY Overall, the reviewer only had very positive things to say about the distro, saying it was one of the best Fedora releases he's used and praising how far the distro has come over the years (the top hit is just a generic, neutral "what's new" video, didn't seem as personal). I'm also CC'ing the social-media list as I think this might be a good idea to share out across the channels! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

CommBlog - Permissions update
by Justin W. Flory 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

Hey all, Just wanted to share a small update on some changes I made to the permissions tonight. I wanted to mirror the Magazine's article approval process while making it more lenient for new contributors. I made the new default role for the CommBlog a "contributor" that does not have access to publish, but should be able to write new posts, edit them, and access the panel. The idea is that once they write their article, they can email the list asking for approval and can have it reviewed. After one or two articles with this approval process, they can be granted "author" privileges, which includes the ability to self-publish and moderate comments. If anyone feels it should be different, I'm open for discussion! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

WCIDFF? Refresh!
by Remy DeCausemaker 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

https://whatcanidoforfedora.org This is a *sweet* tool in our toolbox. https://github.com/fedora-infra/asknot-ng It is our Fedora Sorting Hat to help new contributors find their way to the places where their interests and Fedora's needs align. It is a rewrite of a Mozilla repo, and our rewrite has since been forked and is in use by GNOME. Really cool story :) After speaking with mattdm earlier today, we wanted to be sure we were being proactive about refreshing our join site. Some things that we discussed: - Adding more leafs to the decision tree (other SIGs and WGs, etc...) - Adding a new/intermediate/advanced/wizard head at the top of the tree? - Updating the questions and responses with more clever things (it's already pretty clever :) ) Perhaps we can file a ticket on the tracker, as per mailga's prompting today to use our trac more fully going forward :) Good work this week folks, and I'll probably catch you more or less after the Holiday here in the US. Looking Forward, --RemyD. -- Remy DeCausemaker Fedora Community Lead & Council <decause(a)redhat.com> https://whatcanidoforfedora.org

Fedora Elections - Volunteers needed :)
by Jan Kurik 25 Nov '15

25 Nov '15

Hi CommOps people, I am looking for some volunteers to help me with publishing Q/A articles with nominees in currently running Elections on Community Blog. What exactly I need is a few people getting in touch with nominees and help them to publish their answers to questions in Election Questionnaire [1]. A note: There is no question for FAmSCo team in the questionnaire. As the FAmSCo team should hand over their responsibilities to FOSCo, it makes probably sense to help nominees formulate their own ideas on how FAmSCo should transform to FOSCo. As such, for FAmSCo there probably will be more work on the article as it will be a "free text". Please let me know off the list if you are interested in this work. bee2502, keekri: Are you still willing to help me ? Thanks and Best Regards, Jan -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic
