Presto in F11
by Paul W. Frields
Hi Docs and Marketing teams,
We probably need to update the release notes and, likely, several
other pages on the wiki as well. After I posted this blog entry,
one of the FESCo members politely pointed out that this feature will
probably *not* be enabled in Fedora 11 because of some technical
difficulties:

I don't know all the places Presto has been included, because I know
"feature lists" have been written in duplicate form in many places.
Now would be the time to make sure they reflect reality.

A small Introduction
by Erwyn LENS
Hello everybody...
My name is Martin, I'm 18 years old, french, and french-speaking. I just
joined de Docs group because I'm interested in helping fedora project by
becoming a translator for Fedora Project's Documentation from English to
French.
It's the first time I join a group helping a linux project, so I don't know
what to do, where to begin... So, if someone could help me for the
beginning, I would appreciate.
If you have any questions....
Regards....
Martin.

Hooking docs to the commit list
by Paul W. Frields
If you have a git repo for Fedora Documentation of any kind on Fedora
Hosted, you probably want to have commits go to the
fedora-docs-commits list.
Owners, you can do this the following way:
#!/bin/sh
ssh fedorahosted.org
cd /srv/git/<myrepo>.git
mv hooks/update hooks/update.orig
ln -s /usr/bin/fedora-git-commit-mail-hook hooks/update
exit
# --- END
You'll want to create a file "commit-list" in the top of that git
tree, with the address fedora-docs-commits(a)redhat.com inside. (You
can include as many addresses as you like, one per line, to receive
commit messages.)
I write this message because I think I did not configure all the
various readme* repos correctly and therefore our commits list has
missed a few commits. Dreadfully sorry for that! :-(

Fedora 12 Release Notes
by John J. McDonough
Having done a cycle with Publican, there are a lot of questions raised on
how we should go forward. In an attempt to start the discussion, I've
captured some of my thoughts on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_decisions_for_F12
I would appreciate anything that anyone might add to this list of things we
should think about, and additional thoughts on those items I was able to
think of. If we can put a stake in the ground on some of these earlier
rather than later, perhaps the next cycle can be a little more orderly.
I've included the trans list on this because some of these very much affect
the L10n crew.

Self-Introduction
by Shane Broomhall
HI All,
I have just joined the docs list to hopefully start working on some
opensource project documentation.
I have worked in IT for 19 years, 8 of those in the Australian
Military, 11 as a civilian consultant and trainer.
I have skills in Linux/Windows/Citrix and have taught courses in all
those products. I have also done consulting work on all three.
In the past I have created user documentation for consulting work I
have done, as well as creating courseware for commercial vendors.
I am wanting to make the move across to opensource and if possible be
employed in purely opensource work in the near future.
At the moment I can spare a few hours a week, and expect that to be
the case for a while.
Next semester I am starting to learn to program, in C, C++ and Java
over the next 12 months, but at the moment only have the ability to
create scripts and read very simple source code.
If anyone can suggest something that would be appropriate to get me
started doing documentation work for the Fedora Project it would be
appreciated.
Thanks & Cheers from Brisbane Australia,
Shane Broomhall
