Self-introduction Kevin Glazenburg / HiddenKnowledge
by Kevin Glazenburg
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello,
My name is Kevin Glazenburg, I'm 20 years old, born on 16 November 1992.
I prefer using my nickname HiddenKnowledge on the internet.
I have worked on the Dutch Wikipedia for about a year, but stopped
working there because the people there tend to focus more on people
doing things wrong than the other way around, other than that it was
quite fun. This was from 2009 / 2010.
I develop websites / 'solutions' for a job and am pretty good with
computers in general.
I decided to join the Docs Project because I want to help Fedora and
because I want to focus on writing documentation because I want to
learn more about it.
Kind Regards,
Kevin Glazenburg
p.s. My pgp certificate's fingerprint is 61DD3FE1.
I added my public key as an attachment for convenience.

Updating Musicians' Guide for Fedora 20
by Christopher Antila
Hello Docs and Audio Creation SIGs:
Now that I have a little more time in my life, I'd like to properly
update the Musicians' Guide for Fedora 20. Since there are so many
possible tasks, and I'm not really the best person to judge what changes
would be most useful, I want to include others in the revision-planning
process.
These broad goals can help focus our efforts:
(1) Incorporate changes to software since Fedora 16.
(2) Eliminate content present in upstream documentation. This would
preserve Fedora-specific information, the sample creative projects, and
summaries.
(3) Do copyediting to ensure high-quality, low-ambiguity, easily
translated text. If we do this, it should be a concerted effort in one
place, to minimize the amount of text that requires re-translation.
Possible specific tasks:
- see what can be removed from Qtractor, referring to upstream docs
- include Ardour 3, if it'll be ready during Fedora 20 cycle
- use the SuperCollider GUI rather than the GEdit plugin
- rationalize the SuperCollider chapter, which is half the guide
In addition, I'd like to finish my long-standing goals of changing the
specific piece used for the LilyPond piano tutorial, and of using a
freely-available recording as the basis for the Qtractor activity.
I appreciate any feedback or new tasks, and especially offers to help.
In the coming days, I'll start filing these issues on Bugzilla so we can
track their progress.
Regards,
Christopher

Long lines in Docbook sources
by Florian Weimer
Some Docbook XML files I've seen do not contain line breaks within
paragraphs. These long lines are a bit unwieldy in line-based editors
and also show up badly in line-based diffs.
Is this XML source layout the preferred style, or would it be considered
okay to wrap long lines as a separate change before making actual
content changes?

Fwd: Fedora 20 Alpha Release Readiness Meeting :: Thursday, Sep. 12, 19:00 UTC
by Pete Travis
There is an alpha readiness meeting coming up, see below. Our major role
in this process is the Release Notes, the only product we ship on the
media.
I recently updated the fedora-release-notes package with new content (from
the rawhide branch of release notes git iirc). The copy basically conveys
"we don't do release notes for such an early prerelease. Fedora is a
collaborative project, and prerelease testers are encouraged to contribute
their findings to RNs" We certainly will *not* have copy describing the
actual release in time; alpha media is already under review.
Is a change needed to this copy? Are there other concerns we need to
address before declaring Docs ready for alpha?
