Hello, This November will be the fifteenth anniversary of the Fedora project. Would it be appropriate to mark this event with an article on the magazine, or is that more community blog content? I thought it might be fun to provide people with a Fedora Core 1 libvirt image that they could boot up and see what Fedora was like in the beginning. Thoughts?

I entirely forget what I said, but I could go back and listen. :)

Hello! Believe it or not, this is just a few short weeks away. We discussed this article in the Editor's meeting today, and decided to split it out into a few articles. This article will become a "Fedora Core 1 Tech Review" article. And we'll add two more: one about the artwork, and one about the community/people. For the article about the people, we need to identify and contact a few members of the community who've been around for a long time. Our plan is to ask them a few small questions in the hopes of getting a few anecdotes about the Fedora Project of 15 years ago. Here's my take on the questions. Please suggest any changes, as we need to get these out to people soon. * How did you get involved with the Fedora Project? * What's the most fun thing you've done for Fedora over the years? * Are you still involved now? If so, what are you doing for the project now?

* Are you still involved now? If so, what are you doing for the project now?

Enough to prompt people for some anecdotes, hopefully?
