will coordinate with Fedora marketing for this. The reason for
doing
a soft launch earlier is to be able to seed the forum with some good
questions and answers and fix any last minute issues that might show
up in a bit more larger use. upfiles alias in the httpd
configuration for Askbot has been added via puppet for now. If the
patch for fixing the duplicate subject in the email alerts is
included as a hotfix, we can enable that. Currently I have disabled
subject in the staging instance. The patch is here

Well, we could, but how important is it really?
I'd be ok just waiting for the fix. ;)
Upstream is hoping to do a new release soon and these fixes will be
rolled into the update then. I would like to try out varnish but that
can wait for a while. I am still waiting on a logo from the Fedora
design team but meanwhile have disabled the default logo in the
settings as well. We have modified the CSS only lightly because
upstream has contracted a professional designer to do a new theme and
the format is expected to change quite a bit. Once that is done in
say 2 to 3 weeks, I intend to get a Fedora theme done as well shortly
after. Let me know your thoughts.
Sounds good. I will try and get a ask instance setup in the next week
or so that we can use for production. Hopefully at that time the next
upstream release will happen and we can use that in production...
