Mysterious CSS reference in Hardware_Overview.xml in Release Notes

10 Oct '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I just happened to notice the following CSS file reference in the Release Notes: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook EBNF Module V1.1CR1//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/mathml/1.1CR1/dbmathml.dtd"> <?xml-stylesheet href="http://www.informatik.fh-wiesbaden.de/~werntges/home_t/proj/dbkcss102/wysiw…" type="text/css"?> I've only found this line in Hardware_Overview.xml but it seems suspicious.

Self-introduction:
by Dilip P Kumar 08 Oct '10

08 Oct '10

Greetings. I am Dilip, an engineering student from Banaglore, India. This is my first *real* entry into giving back to the FOSS world. I have been using fedora since f9. Over the past two years, I have tried to find a place in the fedora community without having to commit myself to anything. I soon realized that this was pointless and decided to dedicate some time every week to put in my share of effort to make fedora better. So, here I am. I am not a great programmer. I can go through code and understand what is supposed to happen, but that is not my strongest skill. I feel I can do more here, with the Docs team. I have about 2 to 3 hours a week that I can spend. (more during holidays and less during exams). I can explore software in detail, contact the developers with specific questions and find the patience to write detailed how-tos targeted at 7 year olds. I can also write any other type of documentation that might be needed like reviews, articles or instructions. I am also prepared to learn any skill that might be necessary. Given enough time and the right reading material, I think I can learn any computer skill. If there is anything that needs to be done that requires learning something new first, I am game for it! My main language is english, and all my contributions will be in english. However, India is in a weird state of transition- from British english to American english. Half of us use "colour" while the other half say "color". I will try and stick to the "color" world, but do expect an occasional error. I have a moderate computer knowledge. To give a better picture of my computer skills, here are some of the things I have done: I have compiled my own kernel, manipulated xorg.conf to bring back a broken X11 system (ages ago) and manually completed a failed upgrade from f12 to f13. This letter has grown too long already and I am sure most of its readers have already lost patience to go any further. If there is anything you'd like to know about me, please feel free to ask. Here is my gpg key. pub 2048R/7A3AC280 2010-10-07 Key fingerprint = BB24 2ECF B33C 132F 6AF4 CA96 9388 B372 7A3A C280 uid Dilip P (I love my planet!) <kaambuuu(a)gmail.com> sub 2048R/59BA6B2F 2010-10-07 Thank you. -Dilip.

Re: Publican 2.2 is here

In other words, when you build a document that includes this section (any of the longer books), you should automatically see the latest translation. The "Feedback" section is contained in a different package -- the Fedora brand package for Publican (publican-fedora, currently at version 1.8). I hope to have an updated version of this package available shortly. Cheers Ruediger

fact checking Fedora-14-Burning_ISO_images_to_disc-en-US
by Dilip P Kumar 07 Oct '10

07 Oct '10

I went through the pdf version of Fedora-14-Burning_ISO_images_to_disc-en-US. I looked for the following: 1. Check all links in the document ---> All links are correct. 2. Check numbering and headings in the document ---> No problems here. 3. Check if section heading relates to the content in the body ---> Everything is fine except section 2 (Downloading). Reported as bug 641114. 4. Look for anything that might be confusing ---> filed bug reports 641107 641110 and 641118. 5. Verify all the procedures and how-tos work ---> not done. No access to a windows or mac box to verify their cd burning tools. So, apart from the bugs I have filed, and some procedures in this document, everything is fine. If someone can check if the instructions on using the various cd burning softwares are correct, this document will be done. PS. I am talking about the document found here: http://sparks.fedorapeople.org/readme-burning-isos/en-US/ Cheers. -kambu. (Dilip).
