Ticket #155: FUDCon:Tempe Wiki/Webpage Banners
by Marc Stewart 22 Sep '10

22 Sep '10

In Design Team ticket #155, Robyn Bergeron has asked: "I have had some requests for banners for use in wikis, etc. for FUDCon:Tempe. Would it be possible to get one (or more, maybe a vertically oriented one as well?) made for FUDCon?" I've made a set of banners by taking the logo from here: https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/attachment/ticket/154/fudcon-tempe-201… and then rearranging elements to fit the various banner shapes. I've deliberately kept close to that design without embellishments for the sake of rapid recognisability, though I've used rotation in some variants to allow size increases for extra impact. Since I couldn't find any strict rules for use of the FUDCon logo (only a draft mentioning that "the FUDCon logo is freely licensed and we simply ask people to use them wisely") I wanted to check whether such rearrangements are okay first.

Design spin and gnome-python2-desktop testing
by Bruno Wolff III 20 Sep '10

20 Sep '10

A dependency issue has been blocking composes of the Design suite spin since September 8th. Peter Robinson just rebuilt the gnome-python2-desktop source package which includes the gnome-python2-evolution package, which is what was blocking the Design suite spin composes (at least most recently). He is hoping to get people to test this for problems so that we can get it pushed as an update for beta or shortly afterwards. You can get a version to test from: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/gnome-python2-desktop-2.31.1-6.fc14

Owners and (Co) Maintainers Email Meeting #4 [PUBLIC VERSION]--September 10, 2010
by Chris Jones 19 Sep '10

19 Sep '10

Just a couple of issues that were brought forward from the latest Owners and (Co) Maintainers Email Meeting that require some public opinion regarding future action(s). Cheers -- Chris Jones <chrisjones(a)comcen.com.au> **************************** Gnome-Shell: There's no doubt whether we like it or not, the Gnome-Shell will be implemented as the replacement and default desktop environment for Fedora including its Spin Desktops, somewhere along the line. Personally, I'm no fan of the Gnome-Shell (Gnome 3), hence my own complete migration to the KDE4 desktop environment in the previous weeks. I am curious as to how Gnome-Shell is going to affect the Spins? ie. Design Suite Spin. Will it affect performance and productivity? And how much control do we have in blocking it for a desktop spin? And should we be blocking it? *************************** Inkscape desktop icon: I am not happy with the current process of having a Inkscape icon and link on the desktop upon a fresh install of the Design Suite Spin. To me, it simply does not make sense and poses more questions that what it answers. It's easy enough to remove using the kickstart config. But before I go and do that, I require the opinions of others. *************************** Owners and (Co) Maintainers Email Meetings: Next meeting due date-- September 22, 2010

New kickstart. Test request
by Chris Jones 19 Sep '10

19 Sep '10

In a bid to get the current Design Suite below 700MB ISO size, I have revised the kickstart but need it tested first. Can I please get some users to test this new kickstart and post back thoughts and experiences. Grab it here... http://tinyurl.com/2co34c5 Thanks in advance. foxmulder881(a)fedoraproject.org -- Chris Jones PHOTO RESOLUTIONS - Photo - Graphic - Web ABN: 98 317 740 240 E: chrisjones(a)comcen.com.au W: http://photoresolutions.freehostia.com

Zurich accommodation?
by Dave Crossland 16 Sep '10

16 Sep '10

Hi, I still didn't book a hostel/hotel for Thursday-Monday in Zurich, and I wonder if anyone in the design team would like to let me know where they are staying, since it would be cool to chat about stuff in the evenings :-) Cheers Dave

Hi Martin, Here's the quick go at a beta wallpaper for packaging today: https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/7/7b/F14-beta-wallapaper.png (source to follow, will be on the F14_Artwork page) Just a reminder this is so we have something updated in the beta, not necessarily going to be the final! ~m

how-to library
by Máirín Duffy 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

Hi folks, As I've been doing some tasks for F14 & FUDcon I've been trying to document my workflow as I go along and write up some how-tos: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design#How_Tos I would encourage everyone to think about the kinds of stuff they do on this team and what might make a useful how-to write up to help us onboard more designers or even simply increase our own skills & knowledge within our existing group. Having documented workflows I think can also be a great resource if we don't have enough time to help out another team with a design - if we can at least point them to a how-to they might be able to get it done on their own. Some other needed topics I can think of: - a little writeup on how licensing works and how creative commons != public domain, and why you should license your own works as openly as possible - how to install fonts on fedora - where to find great clipart and freely-licensed assets (brushes, photos, etc) What do you think? ~m
