Fedora 27 Talking points - Server section.
by Gabriele Trombini
Hello team,
I'm taking care of the Talking Points for the F27 release.
As usual the Marketing group is asking for the news for each section in the
related wiki page [1].
This group did a great work on release 26 and we need the same now for the
27.
Of course we would like having not only a mere list of features, rather a
general idea of the best and greater changes to allow each part of the
project, specially Ambassadors, to take this into account to promote the
new release. Is there anyone in the server group which is able to help on
this?
Thanks in advance.

Meeting started by sgallagh at 20:00:15 UTC. The full logs are available
athttps://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-1/2017-09-26/serversig...
.
Meeting summary
---------------
* Roll Call (sgallagh, 20:00:15)
* Branding Bikeshed (sgallagh, 20:11:29)
* AGREED: Server SIG agrees that we would like to avoid creating a new
brand for the modular release. We will go with "Fedora Server
Edition" and note that it is built from modular components in the
descriptions. (sgallagh, 20:23:48)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-websites/issue/735 but that doesn't
have much content discussion yet (nirik, 20:27:21)
* AGREED: Fedora Server SIG will not promote the traditional server
through any official websites. We will recommend the use of Fedora
26 Server Edition or the generic netinstall of F27 for people who
cannot wait for the modular release. (sgallagh, 20:30:36)
Meeting ended at 20:32:14 UTC.

Modular Server Naming
by Stephen Gallagher
While discussing the Server Edition icons on
https://pagure.io/design/issue/545, an important question was raised: How
exactly will we brand the modular release?
I'm personally of the opinion that we should just call it "Fedora Server
Edition" and have something like "built atop Fedora Modularity" in the
description of it, rather than create a new brand.
What does the rest of the WG think? We will probably end up painting this
shed at tomorrow's meeting.

Server SIG Weekly Meeting Agenda (2017-09-19)
by Stephen Gallagher
OK, since our last meeting, the Fedora Council came back and requested that
Fedora Server should ship a modular release of Fedora 27 and that the
Council is comfortable with offering us an additional month to do this.
Langdon has prepared a proposed schedule[1] on the FESCo ticket[2] for
Modular Server.
I see the following issues we need to discuss and vote on for this meeting:
1) Will we release a modular Fedora Server Edition in the F27 release?
2) Will we still attempt to release traditional Fedora Server media, and on
what schedule? Or will we simply rely on the Everything media to handle
updates from F26 and provide no fresh install media for non-modular
installs?
We also have a design ticket[3] for a new modular server icon. We as the
Server SIG should weigh in on the proposed designs and/or make new
suggestions.
Lastly, Matthew (speaking for the Council) asked that we revise our
proposed governance changes from last week and change the term
"shed-painters" back to "WG members", simply to retain uniformity with how
the other groups are working. We don't need to discuss this in the meeting.

Council request for revised contingency for F27 Modular Server
by Matthew Miller
See https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/141 and
https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/teams/council/council.2017-09-13-13.00....
from which we came up with this request:
Modularity is an important Fedora priority, and having it be a
non-sidecar option is important to Red Hat as a stakeholder. Since
Modularity allows us to decouple the Modular Server release from the
GA date, we'd like to take advantage of that and ask the Server SIG
and Modularity WG to come up with an alternate schedule landing as an
official Edition about a month later.
I know there are a lot of details to be determined, but that's the
basic request. I expect we'll have some placeholder release-day
content covering both "new shiny thing coming soon!" and "if you
are using current Fedora Server" and possibly also "if you are using
Fedora in a server context, but not actually Fedora Server Edition".
(I'm personally happy to work on coming up with that.)
