Query: Survey tool availability for Fedora Project
by Pascal Calarco 30 Nov '10

30 Nov '10

Hi Logistics, News and Marketing folk -- One of the FWN Beat writers, Sankarshan Mukhopadhyay[1], passed along results of a recent survey[2] of Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter[3] to me yesterday. I think it is interesting to see how readers use and value a publication such as FWN, and I'm thinking it would also be useful to inform how FWN on Fedora Insight[4] should be presented and what features readers might expect. My immediate question for the group is whether there is a survey tool that is available on Fedora Project hosted servers that we could use for an FWN survey. Thanks much! [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Sankarshan [2] http://akgraner.com/?p=820 [3] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue217?action=show&redirec… [4] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight - pascal --- Pascal Calarco, Fedora Ambassador, Indiana, USA / FWN Editor https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Pcalarco

Importing and publishing in Drupal
by Peter Borsa 29 Nov '10

29 Nov '10

Hi! Well this is a summary email about how do we publish the imported content with Feeds and custom module. At first let's see the Managing News' function. As we know this a complete drupal distro. It includes the Feeds and the Data modules as well. These modules are good basis for Insight because we don't need other modules like Openlayers, MN Channels etc. So I will use Feeds and Data module because we will import the content from other source. This imported content will be added into "cache" ("cache" = custom database tables which comes from Data module http://drupal.org/project/data ). I am going to write a custom module which will publish those imported content onto frontpage for example. I think this is probably good solution, but if you have a question or solution, any comments, don't hesitate to ask. -- Peter Borsa

Insight meeting -- need owner this week
by Paul W. Frields 16 Nov '10

16 Nov '10

Two points for Insight meeting: 1. Unless there's a huge outcry, I'd like to reset this meeting to Thursdays 1900 UTC. (It was at 1800 UTC.) That means that in the US Eastern time zone, it stays at 2:00pm. However, this isn't really a big deal, so if this hurts someone's ability to attend, we'll leave it at 1800 UTC. Please speak up if that's the case. 2. I'm in business meetings in Westford all week and won't be able to make the Insight meeting on Thursday, regardless of whether it's at 1800 or 1900 UTC. If someone wants to volunteer to run it, that would be fabulous. Otherwise we'd postpone until next week. -- Paul W.

Drupal provides addition?
by Paul W. Frields 16 Nov '10

16 Nov '10

IIRC, the suggestion that Toshio had wisely made, to resolve the core package naming and module package naming issue, was that the drupal package in Fedora (which is named 'drupal' and is version 6.x) include a virtual Provides: Provides: drupal6 = %{version}-%{release} Jon Ciesla, could you add this and roll it into a package update in Fedora? I'm sure any number of us could test it for you since it's not even a functional change, getting it into stable quickly. Then people who are packaging D6 modules could simply add this to their spec files: Requires: drupal6 >= 6.0 And the same spec files will work continuously throughout Fedora and EPEL. (Toshio can correct me if I got his suggestion wrong, in which case I apologize yet again for being dense about this.) -- Paul W.

Welcoming New Fedora Program Manager Robyn Bergeron
by John Poelstra 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Jared Smith made an announcement in his blog [1] about some upcoming personnel changes in Fedora. I wanted to make a specific announcement to the Fedora lists as well. Through the end of 2010 and a little bit beyond, I will be working along side Robyn Bergeron to transition my official Fedora responsibilities to her. This will include getting the Fedora 15 team schedules into shape, feature wrangling, bugzilla maintenance, and any number of other things. Robyn and I are committed to making this transition as smooth, complete and timely as we can, and expect the transition to be completed before the Fedora 15 feature submission deadline. Said a different way, if you've already been working with me on something, I'll continue to help you with it. For all new topics, please contact Robyn directly and we will work together as necessary to get them done. One of the luxuries of my position was keeping tabs on most of the teams in Fedora via their mailing lists. I won't have as much time for this going forward so I'll be scaling back the number of mailing lists I watch and contribute to. If I posted to a list in the past, please don't assume I'll automatically see your message there in the future. Also please don't hesitate to contact me directly if you feel the need to do so. Fedora, it's been a great ride. We've made great progress in the past three years and I'm thankful you let me be a part of it. Here's to wishing only the best to Robyn in her new role serving the Fedora community! John p.s. I'm still looking forward to and rooting for an on time Fedora 15 release. :) [1] http://www.jaredsmith.net/2010/11/10/changing-of-the-seasons/
