Fedora Insight weekly meeting
by Paul W. Frields 12 May '10

12 May '10

Unfortunately, our late notice didn't catch enough people. Robyn is going to work on rescheduling for later at a more convenient time. I apologize again for the late notice which may not have reached some of our key people in time. We still have > 30 days before the first milestone and I'm confident that if we do a sprint or two we should be able to reach the goal we set out for June 15. Notes follow.

*TIME CHANGE* - Fedora Insight meeting today
by Paul W. Frields 12 May '10

12 May '10

Due to a conflict I have with a press interview I'm doing for Fedora 13 release, I can't make our normal 1800 UTC (2pm US-EDT) time. However, I *can* make a 1700 UTC (1pm US-EDT) time. Can we reschedule this meeting for 1700 UTC for today? The meeting will happen in IRC Freenode #fedora-mktg. Next week I should not have any conflicts with the regular time. -- Paul W.

All, I'm the project lead of Zikula and I have been following this thread with interest because for many months I have silently worried about these topics and that the development and launch of Insight has, from my point of view, taken much longer than it really needs, especially because, in reality, Insight doesn't even demand anything particularly demanding from a Zikula platform perspective that might require more in-depth customization. Of course, I am acutely aware of the problems we all face in open-source, in that it's all effectively a hobby and people have to earn the bread and butter so individual time is limited. I can also understand all of your concerns about 'leaning on the Zikula people too much' etc, but this has given me exactly the right opportunity to speak. Firstly, I am passionate about Zikula and I am lucky that I am able to work full time on the Zikula project without distractions from a 'have to do real job'. From my own perspective, Fedora's adoption of Zikula is a very positive thing for our project - one that is worth nurturing and caring for. Secondly, the Zikula project already has an active policy to care for things directly related to and that benefit Zikula. Not only do we care for the development of the Zikula core, but we indeed develop and care for a number of modules too, actively as a policy. After the next Zikula dot release, we will also move much more actively into documentation and training to raise awareness. I tell you all this because I want to so how active the Zikula project is with related projects. The pagemaster module that is being used for Insight is also being officially developed by the Zikula Foundation. >From my perspective, it would make perfect sense for some of our people to join the Fedora project on a more official basis with the objectives of, a) bringing Insight to fruition, b) to be available for maintenance, and c) training some of you in the ways of Zikula over time. In doing this, you also do not have to feel you are taking advantage of us because we would be real Fedora volunteers passionate and interested in helping the Fedora project. I believe this will help Fedora in the long term and strategically for us, it is a good investment of our time and resources. I hope I have not said anything wrong or offended anyone - I am just trying to find a practical solution with mutual benefit. Regards, Drak Project leader for Zikula.
