Sysadmin Guide - Conversion to asciidocs
by Ryan
Hi all,
I'm not sure what's going on at all in the fedora docs team atm. As
there has been no communication in IRC, no meetings in recent times,
and no activity until yesterday in pagure everything is looking pretty
dead.
I have therefore begun a conversion to asciidocs for the sysadmin
guide in pagure as a separate project. Apart from the docs-fp-o
project lightly touching on the fact that we want to start making the
documentation topical 'like the gnome project documentation' there is
not any detailed information on how we want to go about this, no
information on the asciidocs tool mallard (and I can't get it to
install to attempt to use it or understand it) and without being able
to communicate with the docs project in IRC I can't really consult
anyone so I feel that the quickest way to get this started is to just
do a 'direct' conversion to asciidocs manually (which i've already
started), and then we can decide how to go about making it topical in
the future, which shouldn't be hard as I'm making my conversion
modular splitting up the different sections of the document into
separate files.
If you want to discuss this with me, I'm logging into IRC fairly
regularly (terminal__) at present, you can send a response to my email
address and the list, or you can comment (I think) on the project at
https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/asciidocs-sysadmin.
Looking forward to hearing from someone.
Ryan.

I'm just a pre-beta tester. So far, from mid April to 15 May,I have listed the above bugs that have to do with the nightly builds. If the beta is constructed from the nightlies, these bugs will interfere with beta testing.I am not able to be an observer or party to IRC chats. But I thought you might be interested in the ones I registered.
Bug 1442625 – Lower case space character is doing a keyboard layout switch for at least US keyboard and CA keyboard layouts and with only one layout installed appears to act as a deadkey

[Bug 1198643] New: Append parameters to grub.cfg
by Red Hat Bugzilla
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1198643
Bug ID: 1198643
Summary: Append parameters to grub.cfg
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: virtualization-guide
Assignee: docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Reporter: geanceretta(a)gmail.com
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org, lnovich(a)redhat.com,
zach(a)oglesby.co
Description of problem: The instructions[1] of how to append parameters to
Grub's grub.config file is obsolete on recent releases of Fedora. The file
/boot/grub/grub.conf doesn't exist anymore.
The way to do it now is (tested on Fedora 20):
1 - Edit /etc/default/grub
2 - Append information at the line GRUBCMDLINELINUX=" ... console=tty0
console=ttyS0,115200 ... ")
3 - Regenerate the /boot/grub2/grub.cfg file with the command "grub2-mkconfig
-o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg"
Link:
[1]
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Virtualization_Adminis...
Additional info: The documentation is refered to version 18 where it should
work, but as we don't have a documentation in a most atual release of Fedora
for that subject, you can write a note for the users of most recent releases of
Fedora that came with Grub2, where the procedure is according with that listed
above.

Self-Introduction:
by Brian Bostwick
What other projects or writing have you worked on in the past?
This is the first public wiki I am looking to participate in. I have
spent some time learning Linux and other flavors of Unix and now would
like to participate by giving back in both written documentation and
programming.
What level and type of computer skills do you have?
I am a web developer.
What other skills do you have that might be applicable? User interface
design, other so-called soft skills (people skills), programming, etc.
Web development, both front and back ends, primarily PHP and
Javascript based libraries and frameworks. Strong writing and
communication skills.
What makes you an excellent match for the project?
In addition to programming experience, I have writing and
communication experience! I have completed a B.A. in English and have
been simultaneously working in a programming role and taking computer
science classes at night. I have completed roughly eighty percent of a
second B.A. in Computer Science.
I'm in the Eastern time zone.
