16 Oct '10

FI Team -- Here is the response from the moderator who approves new Drupal groups. I had thought of the new group to be a landing pad for new contributors. Any suggestions for a response? Thx! - pascal -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [groups.drupal.org] note to author about Fedora Project (Linux distribution) Date: Sat, 16 Oct 2010 15:58:19 -0400 From: NO-REPLY(a)master.drupal.org <NO-REPLY(a)master.drupal.org> To: pcalarco(a)fedoraproject.org <pcalarco(a)fedoraproject.org> Your Group entry entitled "Fedora Project (Linux distribution)" has been reviewed by our content moderator, but not yet approved. Note: If you are looking to attract volunteers it might be better to post to already existing groups and forums instead of creating a new empty shell here. Agree? To respond to the moderator, you can visit http://groups.drupal.org/node/99549/log/response/adc6b8b89089eccab00ca246eb…. You can visit http://groups.drupal.org/fedora-project-linux-distribution to view it yourself, but is is not yet visible to other site visitors. Regards, The groups.drupal.org team

Drupalistas: Call for participation on Fedora Insight
by Pascal Calarco 15 Oct '10

15 Oct '10

Hi Fedora Ambassadors -- Do you have intermediate to advanced Drupal 6 skills, and some time to apply these to benefit the Fedora community? Would you be interested in leveraging these to help spread the word about Fedora? If so, then we have a great opportunity for you! Fedora Insight[1] is a content portal for aggregated news, views, and events about the Fedora Project that a multi-faceted team has been working on over the last while. The vision is to build a rich, dynamic one-stop place to get the latest news on Fedora. The first content we're incorporating is Fedora Weekly News[2], and we're in the midst of themeing the site as well as creating new Views for FWN issues. Come join us! We meet Thursdays on irc.freenode.net If you are interested, please join the Fedora logistics list[3], and introduce yourself to the team! We've also started a new Fedora Project Drupal group[4] for more recruitment, so join us there too, once it has been approved by the moderators there! Thanks so much! - pascal [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight [2] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN [3] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/logistics [4] http://groups.drupal.org/fedora-project-linux-distribution --- Pascal Calarco, Fedora Ambassador & FWN Editor http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Pcalarco

Fedora Project group on groups.drupal.org created
by Pascal Calarco 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

Folks, I submitted a new group request for a Fedora Project (Linux distribution) group on groups.drupal.org. After review, it will appear at: http://groups.drupal.org/fedora-project-linux-distribution Here's the initial text I put on the front page of the group: "Fedora is a Linux-based operating system that showcases the latest in free and open source software. Fedora is always free for anyone to use, modify, and distribute. It is built by people across the globe who work together as a community: the Fedora Project. The Fedora Project is open and anyone is welcome to join. The Fedora Project is out front for you, leading the advancement of free, open software and content. We're in the building stages of developing Fedora Insight (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight) a Drupal-based one-stop site for aggregating news, events and other content about Fedora, and we are looking for some more Drupal expertise to our team! We are particularly looking for help with themeing, creating Views and scaling the site into different syndicated content about the Fedora Project. Please join the group and email me pcalarco(a)fedoraproject.org <mailto:pcalarco@fedoraproject.org> if you're interested in helping out!" - pascal

Hello Logistics List, as I have heard rumors of fedora insight needing some drupal packages, I've gone ahead and packaged: flexifilter: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642856 advanced-help: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642857 footnotes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642858 Reviewers welcome.

f15 codename?
by Máirín Duffy 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hey, On the design team calendar we have the selection of an f15 codename listed as coming out Oct 8. It's Oct 12 and the wiki page still says the suggestion period hasn't opened yet: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Name_suggestions_for_Fedora_15 I'm wondering what we can do to move this along? The design team relies on the codename coming out as early as possible so we can get the artwork done sooner in the release cycle to have stuff ready for alpha. Thanks, ~m
