Brainstorming Session for Fedora Community 2.0 - Monday August 3, 2009 - 1500 UTC
by Tom Callaway 03 Aug '09

03 Aug '09

For those of you who haven't no idea what "Fedora Community" is, its our newest Fedora web application, providing a window into the Fedora distribution, and leveraging the power of Fedora's Account System, Bodhi, Bugzilla, Koji, and PackageDB into a single user-friendly website. It is built entirely with Free Software, such as Moksha and Turbogears 2. Fedora Community is designed to simplify Fedora workflows and bring transparency to Fedora processes: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/community What you see on that URL is our 1.0 milestone, but we already have lots of ideas on improvements and new functionality that we'd like to develop for our 2.0 release. So, we're going to have a public brainstorming session on Monday, August 3rd, 2009: * The session will be held at 1500 UTC (11 AM Eastern) (In addition, if there are enough interested international folks who cannot attend the session due to their timezone, please let me know, and we will try to schedule a future session that works for you) We're going to use a variety of ways to be involved: * IRC: #moksha on irc.freenode.net (we'll be watching and taking questions from the channel) * Gobby: We're going to keep our notes in Gobby, an open source collaboration tool. The name of our document is "Fedora Community Brainstorm", see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/GobbyHowTo for information on how to connect * Telephone: This is where we'll be doing the talking. US Toll-Free: 800-451-8679 Conference Code: 22717 79826 (If you need an international dial-in number, please email me with your country, and I may be able to provide it.) Please be kind and mute your line if you're not asking a question. If the noise on the call becomes unbearable, I will mute everyone. :) Questions about the meeting? Email me. Questions about Fedora Community 2.0? Come to the brainstorming session! Can't make it to the session and want to suggest something? Login to Gobby and add it to our notes before the session. Thanks, Tom "spot" Callaway, Fedora Community Cat Herder

Fedora Community Feedback So Far
by Máirín Duffy 28 Jul '09

28 Jul '09

Hey folks, I've gotten a lot of positive feedback about Fedora Community so far which is great! However there are a couple issues I also heard about so I wanted to share them here so we could maybe figure out how to address them. If you've heard any other issues from users let's discuss and figure out how to address them: Complaints: * Dan Walsh encountered a super-broken GNOME in Rawhide. He wanted to use Fedora Community to see what gnome* packages had been built in rawhide that week to see if any fixes might be pending. He was unable to do this. There are few problems here: ** Koji doesn't let us filter packages based on release, but we can do this for updates. We should definitely focus on fixing this discrepancy. At the least then, Dan could have gotten a list of recent builds filtered for things built into Rawhide. ** We don't have any regexp or freeform text filtering for the grids at all. This would have allowed Dan to filter *gnome* builds. * Michael Dehaan brought these points up, I haven't quite digested them yet I just copy/pasted the IRC log from #fedora-admin a couple days ago: ** "I'm wondering what an unpushed update is. i.e. I'm logged in, I've built stuff, but I see nothing in the updates tab. I would suspect to be able to see builds and somehow click on them to "push" them." ** "It would be nice if the push page was ajaxy and didn't take me to bodhi web - i.e. click on a build and it just appears under "updates' in the other tab." ** "++9 million for having sorting work, though, great. nm, not sorted yet :(" * I've heard a couple of people complaining that our pagination "sucks". Not sure about all the issues there yet but I think this would definitely be improved with grid freeform text filtering. I think I want to do a few usability tests on the pagination to identify some specific problems as well. ~m

ToscaWidgets2
by Luke Macken 27 Jul '09

So, the ToscaWidget guys are working on v2.0, which is supposed to solve a lot of design problems, and also provide a serious speed boost. http://toscawidgets.org/documentation/tw2.core I know J5 has expressed some issues that he has had with the TW1.0 API, so this is our chance help improve the next-generation of ToscaWidgets. I also stepped up to help maintain tw2.jquery as well, so I've got a few ideas of new things I want to try there too. Hop on the toscawidgets-discuss mailing list, or #toscawidgets on freenode if you would like to provide some feedback. luke

Brainstorming...
by Luke Macken 27 Jul '09

27 Jul '09

I just started a `Fedora Community Brainstorm` file in Gobby[0]. We're going to be planning multiple public brainstorming meeting in the very near future, so I decided to dump some of my notes into it now. So, let the ideas flow, and many more discussions will occur next week. luke [0]: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/GobbyHowTo

Moksha/FComm needs a fix and a release
by John (J5) Palmieri 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

I pretty much fixed the issue with csrf id's needing to be propagated to bodhi and fas (I'm hunting down all of the links still). One other major bug is the latest owner and version app spitting out an error (https://fedorahosted.org/fedoracommunity/ticket/289) I think once these are fixed we should stage and update production. -- John (J5) Palmieri Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc.
