Install Guide on docs.fp.o
by Eric Christensen 08 Jun '09

08 Jun '09

I saw Rudi committed a bunch of bits to docs.fp.o but the webpage still says Preview and the document is still marked "Draft". What needs to happen to fix this prior to the release? I'd like to have something on the Planet tonight if at all possible. Maybe we can put together something to put on the announcement list as well. Eric

More agressive caching
by Mike McGrath 08 Jun '09

08 Jun '09

We'll be caching more aggressively tonight for tomorrow's F-11 release. This will mostly have impact on the wiki. It basically means you might have to wait for several minutes before a change you make to the wiki to actually show up. This is a temporary measure and will return to normal a day or two after the launch and load on the servers has gone down. -Mike

Plans for Monday and Release Day
by Jack Aboutboul 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Hello All, Cross posting this to a couple of lists, so that we can mobilize as many people on the ground as possible. Tuesday is sure to be a very big day for all of us. I'm gonna try and lay out some of the activities that are being planned for Monday, to build buzz, and then for Tuesday, release day. If you have any comments, of course, please reply. *Monday, 15:00 UTC Time, 10:00AM Eastern Time * Start releasing some media, including a couple of interviews and the Fedora 11 Tour, which can be found here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_11_tour I need a volunteer to submit it to the various social news sites, and then I will follow up and coordinate with people to digg it/pick it up/tag it, etc. **It is important that we all put in effort to take a couple minutes to participate in these things, because alot of effort goes into posting this stuff up and if we don't do it, its a tremendous missed opportunity to build buzz.** For all those involved in the News Distribution Network, or if you want to be involved, please help spread these around to sites in your native language and add news source to the list linked of the main page. A list is here is linked off the main page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_news_distribution_network *Tuesday, 15:00 UTC Time, 10:00AM Eastern Time *Fedora 11 is released. Fedora News Distribution Network guys are supposed to spring into action. We have a press archive set up at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/PressArchive/F11 If you come across something interesting, whether in english, or whatever language is your preference, please feel free to add it there. This will be a great resource is tracking what press coverage looks like on release day, and the in the days afterwards, when people finally get F11 installed and up and running. Also, for the marketing and ambassadors teams, will be on irc all day long in #fedora-mktg, in constant contact, posting whatever we find on the net and paying attention to conversations taking place so that we can counteract as much FUD as possible. For anyone doing that, please be courteous in your replies, we are all representatives of the community and there is no reason to get involved in flame wars. Please add stuff, as I am sure there is more stuff to do. Otherwise, I wish everyone a good weekend and look forward to Tuesday which is going to be an awesome day. Jack

Why we should run away from n*100 packages per doc
by Paul W. Frields 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/rel-eng/2009-June/005572.html You can see the same discussion occurring on the rel-eng list concerning the TeX Live 2008/9 packaging. Hopefully it will save everyone needless frustration if we instead pursue getting the Zikula CMS set up so any user can simply click his way to a specific RPM for his document and language. Putting these in the Fedora repository is simply begging for conflict. Along with that CMS we should be planning for how to *make sure users find that site.* -- Paul W.

Docs Decisions for F12
by John J. McDonough 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

I just added a few comments to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_decisions_for_F12 and noticed some from stickster and rudi I hadn't read before. I would encourage everyone to revisit that page and comment if appropriate. If we can get as much material as possible out in the open before SELF than FAD can be that much more productive. As Eric reminded us yesterday, F12 is fast upon us. --McD

gnote - description - less vs fewer
by Rahul Sundaram 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Hi # yum info gnote "Gnote is a desktop note-taking application which is simple and easy to use. It lets you organize your notes intelligently by allowing you to easily link ideas together with Wiki style interconnects. It is a port of Tomboy to C++ and consumes less resources." Should I have used fewer instead? Rahul "
