Interested In Helping!
by Jacob Haug
Hello!
My name is Jacob Haug, and I was hoping I could get involved in an open source project. I've been involved in the web world for over 7 years, and am very good with OOP PHP. I also know (X)HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I'm working on learning Python now, but am still a noob when it comes to that! :)
I enjoy writing about technical topics, and that's why I thought this group might be a nice fit for me!
You can read some of the articles I've published here....

The last article was "Optimizing Your Website For Speed".

If you're interested in knowing a bit more about me, here is a little spiel from my website!
> My name is Jacob Haug. People who know me, describe me as a tornado. My mind is always whirling with ideas and projects. I have volumes of pent up energy that sometimes just rises to the top and erupts like a volcano, resulting in lots of sleepless nights spent solving web problems or finishing up an application. Can I be both a tornado and a volcano? Well, why not! I admit, I am sometimes a force to be reckoned with. I’m generally very easy-going. But, I’m somewhat obsessive about getting things done and getting them done the right way. As long as you can get on board with that, we’ll get along just fine.

Looking forward to working with you, and hope someone will be kind enough to sponsor me!
Thanks,
Jacob

* Roll Call (Sparks, 00:00:19)
* Follow up on last week's action items (Sparks, 00:07:14)

can get the links fixed in F13 and F14 (Sparks, 00:07:29)
* Removing redirects on docs.fp.o (Sparks, 00:07:41)

work. (Sparks, 00:07:46)

Virtualization Guide needs love
by Eric Christensen
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Scott (radsy) let me know last night on IRC that he was not going to be
able to maintain the Fedora version of the Virtualization Guide.
Apparently it is in need of some love as well. Would anyone like to
take over this guide?

Thank you for credit
by Luigi Votta
Hi Rüdiger,
today regenerating the pot files, it was a great and pleasant surprise
for me to read my name in to revision history of the Publican User Guide
and I'm happy to see that the proofreading was well done.
I've another small patch, relating the remaining chapters. In the next
days I'll submit it to Bugzilla.
Thank you
Luigi
P.S.
When our it-IT translation is ready to get in SVN, can I submit it,
directly?

fedora-bookmarks
by John J. McDonough
OK, here's what I have learned about fedora-bookmarks ..
fedora-bookmarks.rpm contains a single file, default-bookmarks.html
which is installed into /usr/share/bookmarks.
The first time a user runs Firefox, that file is copied into
~/.mozilla/firefox/<randomnumber>.default/bookmarks.html. Links in that
file are entered into places.sqlite in that directory. As far as I can
tell, once the database is created, bookmarks.html is never used. On my
systems, the file has the date on which Firefox was first run.
There are a number of other sqlite databases in that directory, none of
which contain the Release Notes URL.
Issuing:
sqlite3 places.sqlite "UPDATE moz_places SET
url='http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html-single/Release_Notes/' WHERE url='http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/';"
will cause the bookmark in Firefox to point to the correct place.
The same scheme seems to apply in
~/.mozilla/seamonkey/<randomnumber>.default/, except that in older
versions of Fedora there is no link to Release Notes or other Fedora
websites. They are, however, the same as Firefox in Fedora 13 and 14.
None of the other browsers (there are perhaps a dozen in Fedora) seem to
use this file.
So it would appear that an update RPM should:
- Install the new default-bookmarks.html in /usr/share/bookmarks
- Copy that file to bookmarks.html in ~/.mozilla for both browsers
for all users.
- Issue the sqlite update for both browsers
o Note that if the sqlite command fails, i.e. the user has
edited that bookmark, no harm is done
