[Flock16] [Transcription] Fedora Hubs Meetup/Hackfest
by Justin W. Flory
These are the minutes from the Hubs workshop at Flock today. I'm sending
this out to a couple of lists because I think it's something super
interesting to multiple teams, and the summary (I feel) does a good job
of explaining a complicated thing into common English. Enjoy!

Meeting summary
---------------
* Getting ready / Introduction (jflory7, 11:33:16)
* What is Hubs? (jflory7, 11:48:42)
* Using fedmsg to capture all sorts of activities and information in
Fedora (jflory7, 11:48:53)
* Messages that cross over the bus all involve contributor activity -
1 thing with a problem (like other projects) is no easy way to
connect people with teams that are of interest to them and resources
they need to interact with these teams (jflory7, 11:50:19)
* Systems we use to talk to contributors has their challenges: IRC is
challenging but it's not something most people in the world are
familiar with, have to get client, join channel, register with
NickServ, etc. (same thing can go for mailing lists) (jflory7,
11:51:15)
* Fedora Hubs brings together many systems that we use for
communication and coordination and into a web-based view that
quickly connects people to teams with people in there and what's
happening in there (lowers the learning barrier) (jflory7,
11:51:52)
* Use a widget to follow a discussion and writing a reply, monitor
discussion, etc. (jflory7, 11:52:12)
* Because we have fedmsg, we don't need to vent new channels and new
activities that creates Balkanization problem of new vs. old
contributors (jflory7, 11:52:50)
* IDEA: Opening new views into existing systems (jflory7, 11:53:12)
* Hubs is designed to not just be one arrangement, each team can have
its own hub (jflory7, 11:53:24)
* What do we want to do? (jflory7, 11:54:30)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-hubs/issue/243 (mizmo, 11:55:35)
* LINK: https://hubs-dev.fedorainfracloud.org (jflory7, 12:03:03)
* LINK: https://hubs-dev.fedorainfracloud.org/skrzepto/ (skrzepto,
12:06:38)
* === Widgets === (jflory7, 12:10:54)
* Adding widget to hub: View your Hub in edit mode, choose your
widget, add it, and configure it on the prompt right after
(jflory7, 12:12:44)
* Requesting a new meeting in Hubs creates a new meeting in Fedocal
(jflory7, 12:16:04)
* pkgdb: Seeing packages ready to be pushed to stable and other
similar details in widgets (jflory7, 12:17:37)
* Badges: View all of your badges (jflory7, 12:17:44)
* Pagure: Newest open pull requests on Pagure tagged with fedora-infra
tag (jflory7, 12:17:57)
* Can also interact with GitHub and Bugzilla (other widgets coming
from outside sources) (jflory7, 12:18:29)
* IDEA: Avoiding silo of communications: Sticky note is maybe not a
good idea because then it isolates those *not* using Hubs, so there
could be separation of information that someone may miss if they are
not on Hubs (jflory7, 12:19:39)
* IDEA: WhenIsGood widget, but need to take caution on communication
silos where it could separate the contributors who are and are not
using Hubs (jflory7, 12:20:13)
* === Hubs groups === (jflory7, 12:20:26)
* LINK: https://hubs-dev.fedorainfracloud.org/designteam/ (mizmo,
12:21:45)
* LINK: https://hubs-dev.fedorainfracloud.org/groups (jflory7,
12:22:54)
* Able to have community rules and guidelines in a group hub, as well
as meetings for schedule and past meeting minutes all from the main
team widget (jflory7, 12:23:54)
* HELP: Need more help on widgets, designing the hubs themselves for
groups - design team has good representation with ryanlerch and
mizmo, but we need more input and involvement with other groups and
teams (jflory7, 12:25:29)
* HELP: Packager needs help and input since it's a large group
(jflory7, 12:25:49)
* LINK: https://github.com/fedora-infra/zanata2fedmsg (jflory7,
12:26:16)
* IRC widget in progress which allows you to view design team channel
(a la Facebook Messenger style) on IRC, you can live chat with the
folks you can see on the hub (jflory7, 12:27:21)
* Q: "My personal hub... will people be able to see that?" (jflory7,
12:30:48)
* A: Yes, but plan to get private and public side, e.g. your live
feed, library widget, things from FAS (jflory7, 12:31:28)
* Personal stream in development for saving things from your incoming
stream for later reference (jflory7, 12:32:28)
* === History of project === (jflory7, 12:32:48)
* New Hubs superhero will be sayan for leading the project forward
(jflory7, 12:33:54)
* HELP: We need some assistance with the IRC widget with user use
case, we're working with developers to developers - mockups would be
helpful (jflory7, 12:35:47)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-hubs/issues?tags=needsmockup
(jflory7, 12:35:48)
* === So what do we want to do moving forward? === (jflory7,
12:42:18)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-hubs/issue/243 <= scavenger hunt, if
anyone is up for a challenge (mizmo, 12:43:15)
* Q: "Do you have a Vagrant set up for this?" (jflory7, 12:45:10)
* A: No-yes? ryanlerch has something he has been working on as a work
in progress, but needs some more visiting (jflory7, 12:45:47)
* HELP: fedora-hubs#243 could use another pair of eyes (jflory7,
12:46:59)
* Open hacking (jflory7, 12:50:10)
* LINK: http://localhost:5000/designteam/ <= no problem (mizmo,
12:52:42)
* LINK: http://localhost:5000/duffy/ <= oopsie (mizmo, 12:52:50)
Meeting ended at 13:40:50 UTC.

Requests for being aprroved in the Marketing group.
by Gabriele Trombini
In the last days I saw an increasing number of people requesting to be
approved in the mktg group and that's the part I like.
In the last years we saw a lot of people approved and disappeared.
We want avoid this state of things because the tasks of marketing are a
lot and thinking that people you could count on is disappeared is a
mess.
For this reason we like to see people follow tasks and doing stuff for
at least the time one release.
Everyone can contribute also without being approved so, please, do
something and you will be sponsorized.
The mktg group is here for give help for any help you need: simply ask!
Everyone can reach us in this ML and also in the freenode channel
fedora-mktg on IRC.
Thank very much to everyone.

Meeting summary
---------------
* Introductions (jflory7, 13:31:27)
* Talking a little bit about what the Magazine is for, what it's not
for, and what it tells us about our audience (jflory7, 13:32:17)
* Magazine objectives (jflory7, 13:32:32)
* We present general information about Fedora to the general public
(jflory7, 13:32:52)
* Aiming audience to the general public, not just people who are
working on Fedora (jflory7, 13:33:10)
* Does the Magazine only care about the desktop and desktop apps? NO!
We love to have articles about the Server and Cloud editions. Some
of the "regulars" tend to be oriented towards Workstation, but we're
more than willing and welcome any contributions about other types of
content (jflory7, 13:34:25)
* How it worked then... (jflory7, 13:34:38)
* Daily or weekly articles of interest (jflory7, 13:34:44)
* About trying new apps (jflory7, 13:34:47)
* Release announcements / news (jflory7, 13:34:53)
* Test Days and other new-contributor announcements (jflory7,
13:35:03)
* Trying to get Fedora seen by more people - "this isn't your father's
fedora" (jflory7, 13:35:53)
* Fedora isn't a *bleeding* edge distro (think more along cutting
edge) - helping convey that message via Magazine is one application
(jflory7, 13:37:06)
* === Biggest response === (jflory7, 13:38:20)
* Always comes from new releases (jflory7, 13:38:26)
* Official announcement source as of lately (jflory7, 13:38:34)
* Moving average rising (jflory7, 13:38:41)
* === Next biggest response === (jflory7, 13:41:18)
* Howtos are very popular (jflory7, 13:41:21)
* Upgrades, security fixes, broad appeal tools (jflory7, 13:41:30)
* Powerline, fonts, virt, Vagrant... (jflory7, 13:41:38)
* Things that don't work well (jflory7, 14:10:42)
* === 1. Interface tours === (jflory7, 14:10:44)
* Rate of change, attention span, etc. (jflory7, 14:10:46)
* === 2. Community internal topics === (jflory7, 14:10:58)
* However, the CommBlog is awesome! (jflory7, 14:11:01)
* LINK: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org (jflory7, 14:11:02)
* Also carries to the Fedora Planet (jflory7, 14:11:04)
* === 3. Silent publishing === (jflory7, 14:11:30)
* Social media – please help! (jflory7, 14:11:32)
* Our social media platforms: Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Diaspora,
Telegram announcement channel, Reddit, and more (jflory7, 14:11:34)
* LINK:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/social-media@lists.fedoraproj...
(jflory7, 14:11:39)
* Q: Any thoughts on translating content? (jflory7, 14:11:41)
* A: Long and complicated answer: not easy to do, not always efficient
(duplicating content), not always free (freedom or beer)... we've
considered but an easy solution doesn't seem possible. Needs more
thought and consideration. (jflory7, 14:11:43)
* Q: "Do we want to reach non-English native readers?" (jflory7,
14:11:47)
* A: Is a news website the best place to send foreign readership?
Consider other publishing sites too. Biggest hurdle is the tech
hurdle. Also quality of translated content too. Consistency is also
important. (jflory7, 14:11:49)
* HELP: If you have ideas or thoughts on translating content for the
Magazine, please share them with us in the Marketing team!
(jflory7, 14:11:52)
* Content changes (jflory7, 14:12:03)
* Focus on enabling users – NOT just desktop specific (jflory7,
14:12:08)
* Some announcements about broad public events (jflory7, 14:12:10)
* Still carries release news! (jflory7, 14:12:18)
* Interviews (How do you Fedora?) (jflory7, 14:12:26)
* Not asking for audience action – rather, help them do what *they*
want (jflory7, 14:12:33)
* Pragmatic approach (jflory7, 14:12:35)
* Non-FOSS software, licit software: OK (example: Chrome) (jflory7,
14:12:39)
* Illicit software (FOSS or not): Not OK (jflory7, 14:12:41)
* Q: "Do we have a responsibility to promote alternatives to non-free
software?" (jflory7, 14:12:43)
* A: No, not really – usually if we're writing about software, we're
not trying to argue in an article whether they can use it. We're
focusing on enabling the author to write about using Fedora the way
that they want to. If they like to include alternatives, they can.
(jflory7, 14:12:45)
* By the nmbers (*per Jetpack) (jflory7, 14:12:49)
* 2014: 271 articles, 666K views (jflory7, 14:12:51)
* 2015: 186 articles, 1.9M views (jflory7, 14:12:55)
* 2016: 96 articles, 1.25M views (so far) (jflory7, 14:12:57)
* Writing process (jflory7, 14:12:59)
* All articles start as PITCH, an explanation of what the article
wants to cover (jflory7, 14:13:01)
* Moves to draft stage while author works on the article (jflory7,
14:13:03)
* === Pending review === (jflory7, 14:13:05)
* Author(s) submit draft (jflory7, 14:13:07)
* Create featured image for attractiveness (jflory7, 14:13:11)
* Target: publish 3x substantial articles each week (jflory7,
14:13:13)
* Basic writing execution (jflory7, 14:13:17)
* Solution (TBD): Guide laying out a generic article (beginning,
middle, end) (jflory7, 14:13:19)
* Explain user benefit, explain process, test and practice it
(jflory7, 14:13:21)
* How does it appeal to the user? (jflory7, 14:13:25)
* === Issue #2 === (jflory7, 14:13:45)
* Relevant content (jflory7, 14:13:49)
* Solution: "Starter pitches" – clear content outline (jflory7,
14:14:01)
* How to get involved! (jflory7, 14:15:40)
* Writer / editor: Be fluent (or just decent) at English (jflory7,
14:15:54)
* Tech editor: Test the process, engage with writer to fix (jflory7,
14:16:04)

Meeting summary
---------------
* Welcome, Introductions (jflory7, 07:00:19)
* Housekeeping notes: Refer to schedule online or on the wall for most
current changes, some talks in the brochure are not correct
(jflory7, 07:03:59)
* Get your Flock 2016 badge! Scan the QR code and/or link in the
booklet (jflory7, 07:04:15)
* Please remember and follow the Fedora CoC (jflory7, 07:04:24)
* LINK: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct (jflory7, 07:04:41)
* Tonight, for the walking tour, be on time!! We will leave by 6:50pm
UTC+1 (jflory7, 07:04:59)
* Tonight, games night will also be happening (jflory7, 07:05:15)
* Important contact info is in the Flock booklet! Keep it on hand for
if you need it. (jflory7, 07:05:45)
* === Social Media === (jflory7, 07:05:51)
* Spend some time shouting out about Flock, make some noise, raise the
roof, spread the word! (jflory7, 07:06:11)
* Official hashtag is #FlockToFedora (jflory7, 07:06:19)
* Introduction (jflory7, 07:07:09)
* Note about statistics: Numbers generated using Fedora download and
update server connections (jflory7, 07:08:30)
* In the interest of user privacy, but comes with caveat of potential
inaccuracies (jflory7, 07:08:51)
* Fedora Update Server Connections (Daily by IP) (jflory7, 07:09:47)
* Continued upward trend over the past five releases (jflory7,
07:10:07)
* Installer Downloads per Week (jflory7, 07:10:35)
* Looking at weekly downloads for the downloads on getfedora.org
(jflory7, 07:10:53)
* What about the downward trends toward the end of a release? Perhaps
associated with the improved methods of upgrading (jflory7,
07:12:02)
* Edition + Spin Downloads as Percent of Total over Time (jflory7,
07:12:18)
* Workstation around 75% of downloads (jflory7, 07:12:28)
* Workstation network installer was not always tracked for downloads,
but had fair popularity discovered when we were tracking that
(jflory7, 07:13:05)
* Q: Netinstaller taking a bite from server downloads? Why? (jflory7,
07:13:30)
* A: Not a good answer for this, but seems there might have been some
overlap with people using Server for different applications.
Statistics available make it hard to determine an answer (jflory7,
07:14:02)
* Popular ISP is using Fedora Atomic in some prod. environments (based
on discussions at RH Summit 2016), so these numbers may not be the
most accurate representation (that might be the most popular version
of Fedora... ever??) (jflory7, 07:15:16)
* === Adding in the spins === (jflory7, 07:15:24)
* Brief diversion into external numbers (jflory7, 07:16:12)
* StackOverflow has an annual survey and asked about preferred
operating system environment. Windows 52.1%, OS X 26.2%, Linix 21.7%
(jflory7, 07:16:50)
* Breakdown of Linux flavors: Top 4, Fedora at 1.3% (jflory7,
07:17:09)
* Fedora Project is more than just an operating system (so here's some
more numbers) (jflory7, 07:18:41)
* Q: How big is the Fedora contributor community? (jflory7, 07:18:52)
* We have a message bus, fedmsg, which generates activity and can be
responded to by people or applications (jflory7, 07:19:11)
* Looked at for generating information about our community. Many,
many, many numbers made! (jflory7, 07:19:34)
* 2000+ contributors with at least some activity (jflory7, 07:19:43)
* 800 users active in at least two areas (jflory7, 07:19:51)
* 300 users active in all three counted activities (jflory7,
07:20:00)
* Counted activities: Bodhi, dist-git, wiki (jflory7, 07:20:10)
* Q: Does everyone work for Red Hat? (jflory7, 07:21:45)
* A: Contributors with @redhat.com address 26%, Red Hatters sneakily
using other domains 9%, everyone else 65% (jflory7, 07:22:12)
* These numbers generated manually at times, a lot of the 9% were
contributors who started contributing outside of Red Hat and came
along later (jflory7, 07:22:58)
* Number of contributors providing feedback on package updates each week
(jflory7, 07:23:20)
* Grouped quarterly activity level of each contributor (jflory7,
07:23:34)
* People responsible for the top percentage of fedmsg hits do about
20% of the work, roughly (jflory7, 07:24:27)
* Top 10% cumulatively do about 2/3 of the work (jflory7, 07:25:05)
* Inaccuracy of dataset: there is a user used for mass rebuilds of
packaged, which explains massive skew at some points (jflory7,
07:25:42)
* Casual contributors usually drop off steeply around Christmastime or
so (jflory7, 07:26:21)
* General observations / stats (jflory7, 07:26:46)
* === Percent of update feedback each week by time since packager's
first action === (jflory7, 07:26:57)
* Constant influx of new people with Bodhi feedback, but large
majority is done by people who have been around for a user
(jflory7, 07:27:16)
* === Spam edits per week === (jflory7, 07:28:31)
* We've been under heavy attacks by spammers in recent months, impeded
some progress in places like higher restrictions on wiki edits, but
puiterwijk / basset have helped keep this activity to a minimum
(jflory7, 07:29:05)
* === Fedora Magazine page views per month === (jflory7, 07:29:18)
* Nice upward trend over time (jflory7, 07:29:27)
* Fedora releases are peaks in the data (jflory7, 07:29:31)
* Lot of growth in content and types of articles available (jflory7,
07:29:40)
* Big Goals for 2016 (jflory7, 07:29:50)
* mattdm: "I do not set the goals for Fedora - as Fedora leadership
and Council, try to discern collective goals of everyone in this
room and those who could not be here today in the community"
(jflory7, 07:30:38)
* Lots of the talks are helping show that and not just ideas I'm
pulling out of my head, but ideas we're working on together
(jflory7, 07:30:55)
* If a release is short or long, we're trying to keep / stick to it
(jflory7, 07:31:31)
* === Modularity === (jflory7, 07:32:27)
* Started at Flock years ago about "Fedora rings" (jflory7, 07:32:55)
* Changing how the distribution is put together in the future,
thinking of Legos (jflory7, 07:33:17)
* Things in reality and not just concepts, a lot of the work langdon
has been helping lead with in recent months (jflory7, 07:33:40)
* Creating Fedora modules, similar to packages (jflory7, 07:33:53)
* === University outreach === (jflory7, 07:34:27)
* Bringing new people and developers into the flock (jflory7,
07:34:43)
* === Fedora Loves Python === (jflory7, 07:34:48)
* New marketing initiative to not focus on "developers" and being
broad, focusing on smaller bit and building on existing positive
relationships could be useful to help focus and target our efforts
(jflory7, 07:35:20)
* Ongoing efforts to attract Python developers to the distribution and
community (jflory7, 07:35:35)
* === Fedora Hubs === (jflory7, 07:36:32)
* Core of activity is on Hubs and mailing list, but often completely
invisible to people on the outside world (jflory7, 07:36:45)
* Hubs will help make Fedora contributions and activity visible to
Internet and making our contributions public (jflory7, 07:37:55)
* === Fedora Atomic === (jflory7, 07:38:01)
* LINK: https://projectatomic.io (jflory7, 07:38:09)
* Containerized bits of operating system is likely future of the
operating system across editions (jflory7, 07:38:32)
* Lots of bleeding edge tech in Atomic and experimenting with crazy
ideas - we like to play with leading edge (see: Foundations,
Features/First) (jflory7, 07:39:07)
* Looking at OpenShift: not just a container system, but a host
cluster system (jflory7, 07:39:23)
* === Flatpak === (jflory7, 07:40:12)
* Similar technology, method for distributing desktop apps, trust they
won't take over system, install once install anywhere (jflory7,
07:40:40)
* Talk about future of Fedora Workstation which will likely introduce
Flatpak (jflory7, 07:40:58)
* Ongoing Council discussion about people outside of Fedora creating
Flatpaks for Fedora users (jflory7, 07:41:12)
* So, questions? (jflory7, 07:41:25)
* Special shout-out to Stephen Smoogen (smooge) and Ralph Bean
(threebean)for helping generate statistic (jflory7, 07:41:52)
* Thanks to all those helping with each release, Fedora would not be
the awesome community without all of you (jflory7, 07:42:10)
* HELP: We need help transcribing IRC meetings, like this! (jflory7,
07:42:30)
* LINK: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flock/Volunteers2016
(jflory7, 07:43:19)
* Q: "Do you have any stats on packages that make it to stable from
Bodhi? I think that would be interesting" (jflory7, 07:43:45)
* A: Likely available, not generated at time of presentation - "things
to work on slides" (jflory7, 07:44:18)
* LINK: http://bit.ly/flock16help (puiterwijk, 07:44:33)
* Q: "Do we have any statistics on whether or not the University
Involvement Initiative has impacted growth in the project?"
(jflory7, 07:44:39)
* A: No hard data available, Fedora Women's Day which was successful
fits along with improving diversity efforts. There is a large survey
being worked on for contributor community to best understand our
community as well. (jflory7, 07:45:13)
* Q: "Do you have any stats on how people are using Fedora as compared
to other stats in the presentation?" (jflory7, 07:46:07)
* A: No, not available (see: privacy concerns), but still able to
discern patterns from downloads and upgrade activity (jflory7,
07:46:41)
* Q: Activity regarding contributor and user activity in the project
(jflory7, 07:47:29)
* A: For community, we have field in FAS account to understand where
our contributors come from (available but not measured at this
time), some regional data for users can be discernable but difficult
to measure due to regional issues, e.g. connection speeds and
strength affecting number of connections (jflory7, 07:48:26)
* Q: "Is the information on fedmsg a major privacy threat with how
public it is?" (jflory7, 07:48:38)
* A: Reasons for not more invasive data is being careful about
privacy, data is very valuable for understanding our project but
also privacy is a major concern too - this is an ongoing discussion
in the Council (jflory7, 07:49:36)
* Conclusion (jflory7, 07:49:40)
* Thanks for being here everyone and have a great Flock! (jflory7,
07:49:52)
* HELP: SPEAKERS: Note, there are laptops available for the sole
purpose of recording your talks! Make sure you're recording a video
and start AND stop your talks when recording! Try testing before
your talk! We want to upload all talks to YouTube post-Flock, so
make sure you get your talk recorded for our remote contributors and
interested users! (jflory7, 07:50:48)
