[Insight] Identi.ca hookup
by Paul W. Frields
Here is some use case information for the Identi.ca feed hookup:
* I'm interested in @Fedora status messages.
RIGHT NOW: I don't know where Fedora's Identi.ca feed is. But if I
take a wild guess and use http://identi.ca/fedora fortunately that's
the right one.[1]
SHINY FUTURE: On the Insight page there's an easy to see block that
says Fedora Speaks! with easy links to the Identi.ca and Twitter
feeds. The Twitter feed is de-emphasized a bit, which encourages me
to look at Identi.ca if I don't know what it is. But fortunately
Fedora respects the fact that I'm already on Twitter so I can easily
follow them, whichever I decide to use.
WIN: Tiny/medium
EFFORT: Small, just an RSS feed and a bit of appropriate graphics
and hyperlinks in a block.
* I'm a member of the Fedora Marketing subteam that works on social
networking stuff, and I want to put a message on our Identi.ca and
Twitter feeds.
RIGHT NOW: I share the account password with lots of people. (That
works OK, but it worries me that someone might get access to my
data.) I visit our identi.ca page, log in, and set a status. The
status automatically echoes to Twitter too.
SHINY FUTURE: I login to Insight, and there's a menu choice for "Set
Identi.ca/Twitter status". When I select it, I'm prompted for a
140-character maximum message. When I select Forward, the system
asks me to confirm the content. Once I select Confirm, the status
is posted to Identi.ca and then echoes automatically to Twitter via
Identi.ca's built-in functionality.
WIN: Medium/huge
EFFORT: May be small, since the 100% all-FOSS brdcst.it service can
take an RSS feed of status from anywhere and post it out to other
services such as Identi.ca.
* I'm a member of the Fedora Marketing subteam that works on social
networking stuff, and I want to reply to an Identi.ca or Twitter
user.
RIGHT NOW: (see shared password above, then...) I visit either
Identi.ca or Twitter and click a link to find out if @fedora has
been mentioned. Then I reply in the WebUI to reply to the message.
SHINY FUTURE: I login to Insight, and there's a menu choice to see
mentions of @fedora on Identi.ca/Twitter. When I select one, I have
the option to reply to the message using the appropriate service, as
above.
* * *
[1] Leaving aside the question of whether our feeds should show up on
the fp.o home page.

[Insight] Work slowage, my confession
by Paul W. Frields
This past week has been extraordinarily busy for me at $DAYJOB and I'm
going to need more help (and extra time) to get Insight tasks done.
Here's the last list of action items from our previous meeting:
http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2011-06-14/insight.2011-0...
For instance, it would be great if someone would volunteer to pull the
calendar ideas into a wiki page that would be easier for us to edit
and work with.
Also, tatica needs to apply for the "cmsadmin" group so someone can
sponsor her. Then she'll be able to help with the theme problem on the
Blocks administration menu page, which we discussed in the last
meeting.
I'm a little wary of having our regular meeting tomorrow since I can't
in good conscience say we've made much progress since then. But I'd
like to see that change in time for next week. :-) What do other
participants think?

I got some very thoughtful responses. Here are some of my thoughts around
them:

I think having some feedback on how to improve Fedora is great. My only
thought is the 'start' page really the best place for that? If this is the
first time i've used Fedora, how would I know what it should improve in.
This also leads into a question... do users actually keep the site
start.fp.o as a default page after their first FF launch?

We currently try to integrate some of the stuff in lists.fp.o and planet.
Once Insight is fully implemented it can be added too.

Yes. We surely want folks to contribute to the project. We already have
join.fp.o (which is just a redirect). Maybe she should highlight that stuff
more in other places too?

This is an interesting thought. It reminds me of a 'how to get started' type
thing, which is what ideally start.fp.o should be. We already have some
tutorials written but there is so much community driven content out there
that we should be able to point to them as resources for users. This
definitely keeps the content writing ourselves to a minimum.
What I don't understand is what you mean by "make it part of the release
process". Are you referring to make it parts of the docs/marketing/websites
beta/alpha/ga release processes? And who will own this?

Given this project is by Fedora/for Fedora, it's probably a good idea
for us to require FPCA for contributions. Thoughts on that?
> gitfedora-zikula
> gitfedora-zikula-theme
These are actually deprecated, so I'm not really concerned about
them. Perhaps these should be retired as dead projects though?

What to do with start.fp.o?
by Sijis Aviles
Hi all,
I wanted to start a discussion on what is the goal/purpose for
start.fedoraproject.org. There has been some push on redesigning and
freshening up its 'look and feel' which some of that work has been
completed. However, the problem is we need to answer what is the purpose of
start.fp.o?. Without answering this question, we can't redesign it without
having a target audience in mind.
I think that this site can be a very visible, since that's one of the two
sites that load upon launching FF for the first time. Currently I feel that
it lacks a purpose and its sorta out there with no target in mind. My
current view is to do something like a '1 page release notes' or 'New things
in Fedora X' type thing, something very simple and only 1 page. The other
idea is to just drop the site completely and/or use fp.o.
Here is a link to a few unorganized ideas about the redesign [1]. Any
ideas/suggestion/thoughts?
Thanks,
Sijis

Fedora Insight podcast integration idea
by Peter Borsa
Hi!
So here are some starting questions regarding the podcast integration
idea for Insight, solicited on our Phase 2 project plan[2]. PLEASE
ADD MORE!
Don't bother worrying about how much work it will take to make it
happen, this is just about identifying or brainstorming an ideal
situation. We can break it down into work details later! :-)
So, here is the questions...
* What would you like to attach to an article or story? video and/or
audio files and/or something else?
* Would you like to listen to the attached podcasts?
* Would you like to download podcasts?
* Add more here...
