Thanks dude. Good start. --g On Mon, 2 Jun 2008, Michael Beckwith wrote:

As far as I'm concerned, Ambassadors can make suggestions for screencast tutorials. All ideas are welcome and if we brainstorm enough, we can eventually cover all aspects of Fedora that new users may want to learn about.

Awesome. Thanks for posting that page up there. The list is already looking good. I'll be sure to add some more ideas. -- =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Jason aka, Axelilly Catch me on gchat or Jabber =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=

For creation, you can record the terminal window where the image is transferred to Live USB, for booting it, yes, you will need a VM and for working with the stick (live persistence), you can install Istanbul on the stick. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com Cool Fedora wallpapers: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/ Open Clip Art Library: http://www.openclipart.org my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro

I need someone or a group of someone's to watch this page for new videos and then turn the information into this page into an rss feed that we can view in miro. You'd have to manually add new screencasts to the miro feed for the time being. For the time being lets stick to an english feed. As we collect more videos we can think about redoing the audio in different languages and setting up additional language specific feeds using the alternative audio tracks. We should probably consider changing the format of that table to include several useful tags that miro knows how to parse. if we are really clever we will construct a wikipage that we can parse with a tool and generate the miro feed once we settle on a format for the information. Yes, I realize that we shouldn't do this manually in the long term, but for the time being so we can experiment with the entire process including miro as our preferred viewer of this sort of community generated content. Anyone want to volunteer to generate the associated rss feed meant to be used in miro? Starting with Clint's video as the first rss entry. Following the format that Jon Roberts gave us in another post would want to be able to construct rss entries from the collected wiki information that look like this: <?xml version="1.0"?> <rss version="2.0"> <channel> <title>Fedora Project</title> <link>http://fedoraproject.org</link> <description>Find out all about the Fedora Project, from screencast tutorials to video interviews with members of our community.</description> <language>en-us</language> <pubDate>Wed, 21 May 2008 21:04:00 GMT</pubDate> <lastBuildDate>Wed, 21 May 2008 21:04:00 GMT</lastBuildDate> <docs>http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification</docs> <managingEditor&gt;jonrob(a)fedoraproject.org&lt;/managingEditor&gt; <webMaster&gt;webmaster(a)fedoraproject.org&lt;/webMaster&gt; <item> <title>GVFS</title> <link>http://pfrields.fedorapeople.org/screencasts/GVFS.ogg</link> <description>Have you heard about Gnome's new GVFS system?

2008/6/16 Jason Fenner <axelilly(a)gmail.com&gt;: Yep, it's been done and the channel is in Miro :) Fedora TV. What does need doing however, is an e-mail web form so that people can submit an idea to a video for review before it gets added to the feed. If you're interested in helping, maybe you'd like to do this?! Would be awesome if you could! Best, Jon

2008/6/16 Lucas Saboya <lucas(a)cefetce.br&gt;: Basically we want: Name: E-Mail: Video URL: Video Title: Video Description: And then have that e-mailed to an editor or a mailing list (i.e. just needs an e-mail address we can fill in for it to be sent to). What would be cool if the form would automatically update the RSS feed once somebody clicks approve, but this could also be done manually quite easily. Let me know, otherwise I'll investigate this properly myself when I get a minute, Thanks, Jon

done and done :) fell free to make any changes.. script made in PHP and HTML :) Link: http://www.mediafire.com/?hixl2zpmbxm On Mon, Jun 16, 2008 at 4:23 PM, Lucas Saboya <lucas(a)cefetce.br&gt; wrote:
