Hi folks,
Clint set up a gallery2 instance for us.
How do you think we should proceed with it?

Okay, so gallery2 is installed at:
http://publictest7.fedoraproject.org/gallery2/
Admin access is available with the username/password: admin/admin. It's
currently configured with my info in the admin, but please feel free to
remove it.
I didn't set up the rewrite rules, figuring that can be done on the
production configuration.
Alson, cant install gallery3 from the standard php in RHEL5.3 since it's
only version from the repos is 5.1.6 and gallery3 requires php version
5.2.3.

Hi,
perhaps make it accessible to design team members and start filling it
with extra wallpapers and see how it works? And hold a session after
some time (perhaps a month) to discuss whether the test instance works
as we'd like or not, ...

I tried authenticated with the admin password provided by Clint and it
didn't work (I guess Mo did the sane thing and changed it ASAP).

Yeah, this seems the sane thing to do.

Could it be used to
display past Fedora release wallpapers,
contributors wallpaper like Martin mentioned similar to what Fedora
Forum used to have until vBulletin upgrade, sketches. Could it be
similar to gettyImages for example?

Yes, we should have distinct sections for all those categories, to make
navigation easier.
However, I am not a big fan of album-based galleries, where is not easy
to move an image from an album to another, I like better the photostream
approach, where you can tag an image in whatever sets/albums do you
want, but unfortunately I am not aware of any FOSS application working
like this, so making the best from Gallery2 looks like our best option.
similar to gettyImages for example?
I think Getty is too complex for our needs.

OK, those interested in testing the Gallery2 functionality ask me or Mo
for an account.
I just uploaded an image to make sure it is working:

OK, here are a few of my impressions after about one week with Gallery:
- the current authentication is a killer: it don't scale to have admins
adding accounts for every user, even more considering our plans to
increase the contributors base and make easy for everyone. In an ideal
world, people would be able to login using the FAS and have their rights
provided by FAS (this *may* be possible, AFAIK Gallery2 is integrated
for authentication with all finds of forum and portal software);
- is not easy to mass upload, the only way in our instance is tu upload
ZIPs of all your files. There are alternate ways, like using WebDAV, but
our install does not have the plugin;
- speaking of plugins, there are only a few available, we lack some for
things like layout customization. I wonder if we should try to act as
admins and install plugins as we like (well, it impossible anyway
without direct access to the server) or consult with the Infrastructure
people (a saner, but more bureaucratic approach);
- some operations are cumbersome: for example adding keywords and
browsing based on keywords. I wonder if installing some plugins would
make for a better experience;
- I don't see a way to browse for things like 'best rated' and I wonder
again: we need plugins?
Normally I would have asked for other people opinions, but I see only
very few of us played with the gallery, which make me doubt it is a
popular/useful/wanted feature (but deep inside I still think a gallery
would be good for us).

Well given that it's been around 11 days since Mo announced this and
that the announcement went to the design-list only and seeing how many
people are active here during the summer vacations, it's quite
understandable that not many of us have tried it yet...
Martin
PS: In my case it's more like lack of content worth uploading (I don't
own a good digital camera to start with...), though I did take a photo
with my mobile phone recently with the target being the gallery test
instance, but I haven't even transferred it to PC yet to see if there is
not over too much noise XD

I also blogged (on Planet) about it and mentioned in Fedora Weekly News.
However, it is not the time to announce to a wider audience, since it is
a test instance and we want at this point mostly to evaluate if the tool
is good for out goals.

Don't worry about the lack of content (...and wallpapers used in the old
release are for example useful content to have), it's all about
functionality.
PS: a photo made with a mobile phone will most likely won't be good
enough for a wallpaper, but don't let that stop you, upload it anyway so
we can play with the software.

Hehe, then either I have bad memory (which is proven) and forgotten you
mentioned in on Planet (highly possible), or I've just missed it XD

That's a good idea. I've got archived wallpapers from fc1 through f9
[1], but I am not sure about the licenses of F7 (flying high) and prior
(although being it a test instance, it probably does not matter).

That's fair, since it was not a straight announcement:

Those are made by Red Hat employees as part of their regular job, so
automatically fail under CLA. I think a bit of research (but I am not
thrilled about doing it myself) of the RPMs from those release will
reveal a GPL license. But IANAL and i don't work for Red Hat... (we can
try a shortcut and ask spot)

I think you meant "fall" instead of "fail"! It did give me a chuckle
though. But yes, these contributions to Fedora should fall under a
license that allows reuse, redistribution, and remixes, although I
suspect it's not Creative Commons.

Fair enough. But I think we may do something to change their license to
something usable (CC). If the relicense to CC for documentation/wiki is
possible, I expect it has to be possible for wallpapers. Should I ask
Spot about this?

Yes, I'd bring this issue to fedora-legal-list so it's documented for
reference later. Thanks for bringing this up, Nicu.
