Introducing myself
by Harshit Modi 09 Oct '18

09 Oct '18

Hi CommOps Team, I am Harshit Modi. I am interested in getting involved in the Fedora community by contributing to the Fedora CommOps. As Fedora CommOps deals with all other fedora projects, it will provide me good opportunity to work closely with all the community. I am current graduate student at UT Arlington with computer science major. I have 2 years of experience in web development. I have proper knowledge in web stack and had used many open source technologies. As I move forward in my career, I want to dig into more in open source projects. And for that I want to join such project and learn from the highly motivated community. Fedora is well known in open source world and has diverse fields to work with. And CommOps has many active contributors and joining them will help me jump on board and become the part of fedora community. So I am confident that this opportunity will benefit us both. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Thanks! Regards, Harshit Modi https://www.linkedin.com/in/harshit-modi/

Cannot find more info about Fedora participating in GCI
by Justin W. Flory 09 Oct '18

09 Oct '18

Hi all, Recently, I learned Fedora is participating in Google Code-In after I incorrectly told a student in #fedora-summer-coding I did not think Fedora was participating this year. Is there more information about Fedora's participation in GCI or where to direct new students who want to contribute? I've participated with GCI in other organizations before, but I have not seen discussion or planning in any public archives. -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

Re: Considering a logo refresh

Because we do have a design team, a marketing team, and a web team doing great work – so I am curious where the perception of effectiveness arises. :) I want to clarify my previous comment. I imagine everyone agrees it should be open and transparent, but we may define those differently. It should include engagement and active participation of mindshare teams in a process to update the logo. If the logo is refreshed without active involvement of these teams, whatever the final result is won't feel representative of our community—to me. If working with mindshare teams in this process feels tedious or that it would draw this process out over a long stretch of time, it's worth considering why that is and what we can do to make it not feel this way. -- Cheers, Justin W.

Easyfix + WhatCanIDoForFedora
by Brian Exelbierd 04 Oct '18

04 Oct '18

I started writing this a while ago and never got it fully formed. Rather than let it keep rotting in my drafts folder I wanted to share it and see if it made sense to anyone else. Warning - rough edges ahead! --- Conversations with several people have resulted in distilling the following idea: = EasyFix == Changing metadata Modify the table that drives fedoraproject.org/easyfix that is located at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Easyfix The table would now include two additional columns (optional) Col 1 = existing reference to the issue tracker. We should consider adding gitlab.com support Col 2 = existing point of contact Col 3 = category of task (documentation, infrastructure, programming-Haskell, programming-Ruby, etc.) Col 4 = SIG/WG/etc. this project is related too (Design, Council, KDE, etc.) == Changing fedoraproject.org/easyfix Today we show only two categories: Issues from Pagure/Github and Bugzillas I believe those categories are not the right categories for consumers of the page. Using the new category (col 3) above, we would break things out by the kind of contribution. This would serve to let people browse related tasks more easily and to reduce the overwhelming nature of the current lists. For BZs we are either going to have to guess based on BZ metadata or leave them lumped together. = WCIDFF WCDIFF should be extended to show the categories and groups appropriate for the various endpoints. This way the person who navigates WCDIFF has the option of reading a specific task they could work on right now, if they so desire. = Marketing/Promotion The categories give us the opportunity to promote our easyfixes as a great way to join or contribute in a targeted manner. This could come in the form of articles, tweets, or live conference appearances. What do people think? regards, bex
