Marketing-trac: #200: Ambassadors "Eventbox"
by Marketing Team
#200: Ambassadors "Eventbox"
------------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: zoltanh721 | Owner: zoltanh721
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: other | Severity: not-urgent
Keywords: | Blocked By:
Blocking: |
------------------------+-------------------------
I have an idea - maybe others can find it useful. I see lot of useful
printable marketing stuffs, but I would like to have them as a form of
repository, common place - that instead of hunting where can an ambassador
- the most actualized and legally allowed, freely printable marketing
stuff - find.
Basic concept is just have an single address or command (maybe dnf make
eventbox) that actually can create an "Eventbox", like copr, or sync-able
fedorapeople storage.
This way not only can solve problems that what can an ambassador take to
events and print it if necessary, else with this we can help mentors (like
me) to give new ambassadors a starter pack - to be able to have basic
easily printable fedora desk stuff.
To this way I would like to create some easily printable timeless A3 sized
posters, and put into the set some flyers, stickers set and such - but my
question is this:
What would you create to achieve this - and what would you put in this
event box? What would be the "poor man's" eventbox that actually you can
print and run an booth?
Eg. Foldable name plate to the desk, some foldable cd holder with some
artwork, generic foldable cd sleeves....

Display modes on Fedoramagazine
by František Zatloukal
Hi,
I wanted to let you know that I have implemented switching to vertical mode
(one article per line) on *mojefedora.cz* <http://mojefedora.cz> as lot of
our users requested it when we deployed new theme.
I thought this feature might be useful even for Fedoramagazine readers.
Switching is done with jQuery and cookies. In first release switching
worked without page refresh (modifying css through jQuery.css) but
switching from vertical to horizontal view haven't worked reliably. So when
user clicks on switcher it creates a cookie and reloads entire page (with
or without additional css).
What do you think?

Pitch: Sharing success of Fedora translation sprint with readers
by pravin.d.s＠gmail.com
Hi All,
We had fantastic translation sprint from 1st to 5th April. Overall 50+
participants in sprint with 18 language and number of packages with around
20000 words translated.
I think it will be good to share this to Magazine readers. One idea i
specifically wanted to push with is translation is low barrier and good
chance for users to get converted into contributor for there own language.
Any opinions?
Thanks,
Pravin
