Congrats on Fedora 15 Alpha release docs
by Rahul Sundaram 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

Hi Thanks to everyone who contributed. In the earlier releases when I haven't had the time to contribute, I would always feel that I should have stepped in and tweaked a whole lot of things. This is the first time that I haven't felt any real need to do so. The Alpha announcement and release notes describe all the major changes and do it a great way. Rahul

Open Help Conference
by Shaun McCance 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

Hi folks, This has been mentioned a few times on IRC, but I don't think it's been talked about on the mailing list. I'm organizing the Open Help Conference this June. This is a gathering of documentation and support people from open source and other community-based projects. http://openhelpconference.com/ I would love to have some Fedora people at the conference to share your experiences. You all have a vibrant documentation community, and I think we could all learn from that. At the same time, there will be documentation people there from various projects that get packaged in Fedora, and you can get a better sense of what they're doing. I also want to mention that there are still rooms available for team sprints after the conference. So if multiple Fedora people would like to take advantage of the conference to get some face-to-face collaboration, we can make that happen. And of course, if you know people from other projects that might be interested, I'd appreciate it if you passed the word. I know how things work in Gnome. I want to see how the rest of the free world helps their users. Thanks, Shaun

Self Introduction
by Michael Elliott 10 Mar '11

10 Mar '11

Hi all, My name is Michael. I come from New Zealand but am currently living in China. * What other projects or writing have you worked on in the past? I have one years experience as a technical writer, have worked as an English teacher here in China, and have also been involved with writing knowledge base articles in another job I had. * What level and type of computer skills do you have? I have over 10 years experience in the IT industry, mostly in technical / customer / product support, but also one's years experience in technical writing as mentioned above. I would consider myself a jack of all trades, master of none. I know a little bit about a wide variety of technologies, but don't know any one thing deeply. * What other skills do you have that might be applicable? User interface design, other so-called soft skills (people skills), programming, etc. N/A * What makes you an excellent match for the project? Even though I have used Linux for a few years, I would still consider myself at the beginner end of the skill range. This, along with the fact that I live in a foreign country with a different language, gives me good insight in how to explain things in an easier way, more suitable for beginners. I am not currently working (am a student), so I have a lot of free time currently. I will be starting a new job in the coming weeks (hopefully, dependent on a background check), but as a potential winner of the 'World's most boring man' competition, I will still have time to contribute to this project. I am also very patient, and understand that it will take time to learn how things work in the team, and how best I can contribute to the team, and to the Linux community as a whole. * GPG KEYID and fingerprint pub 2048R/273DF91D 2011-03-10 Key fingerprint = 03F0 4F44 4860 776A EB6D 9041 720E 73FA 273D F91D uid Michael Elliott (Baby Bear) <xiong.baobao(a)gmail.com> sub 2048R/DBF38458 2011-03-10 Thanks, Michael

Update for F14 release notes
by Paul W. Frields 09 Mar '11

09 Mar '11

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/fedora-release-notes-14.1.2-2.fc14 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/fedora-release-notes-14.1.2-3.fc15 I built and pushed packages to updates-testing to address the missing dependency on /bin/touch (the fix is already found in Rawhide, but didn't make it to the branched F15 before that happened). There aren't any content changes, so the deltarpm should be quite small. Testing and karma contributions would be appreciated. -- Paul W.

Alpha Release Notes
by Zach Oglesby 04 Mar '11

04 Mar '11

Can someone please finish the alpha release notes for me? There was a death in my family yesterday, and I need to spend a few days offline to try and get home. I should be back in a few days, but this needs to be done by Monday. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_15_Alpha_release_notes -- Zach Oglesby GPG Key: F20C4707 zoglesby on irc.freenode.net https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Zoglesby
