[magazine] Featured images for Fedora Magazine
by S.Kemter 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Hi, The Design Team has an issue, with tasks. Well on one hand its a good thing that all problems and tasks get solved fast (at least most of them) on the other hand we have several people that wish to contribute and search for tasks they can do. We talked at the Design Team FAD about this and came up with some ideas how to fix this. One idea was to let them make the featured images for Fedora Magazine. Ryan agreed to that in the meeting and also later on wrote a mail to the design-team list: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/design-team@lists.fedoraproje… There is only one problem now, newcomers dont know, what featured image is needed as there is no ticket for it. They mostly look to the design-team trac instance (they dont look to e.g. badges trac) The question is now, if you would create trac tickets for it or if we stick to pagure issues, which might be right now only partly solves the problem as we had one place more where a newbie has to look. There would be another issue with using the pagure instance, we award badges for fixing tickets and that would currently not work. So it looks we have to go for a while with creating tickets at http://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ and fix some problems we need for our process in using pagure. So can you create this tickets, for open featured images? That will not include that ones which are urgent, Ryan will still do them on short notice, so just the ones who have some days time to get fixed. br gnokii

[magazine] [comm blog] Publishing rights
by Natalie Ardasevova 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Hi guys! Thanks for setting up this Magazine mailing list! It makes things much clearer. May I ask what's the process of publishing Fedora community blog articles? Do we have an editorial or can anyone with publishing rights publish at anytime? Is anyone in charge of scheduling? How does that work please? Thanks, best, Natalie Ardasevova nardasev(a)redhat.com Marketing Communications Specialist

Devyani and I checked in earlier, and the current plan is for a more general introduction to Fedora Hubs on the Magazine, and a lot of the technical notes on how to set up a Fedora Hubs instance locally will be moved over to the Community Blog. Let us know when you're ready for review and we'll take a look at them, Devyani. :) -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

Paul did use a tool to find top search queries for things with Fedora and we used those to create some starter pitches for new writers. If I can remember what the tool is, I think that's a great way to get a better insight to what people in the greater public are looking for. Otherwise, for the topics we are writing on, we usually look at the WordPress metrics. https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/admin.php?page=stats -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

I'm getting caught up on my inbox and just noticed this email without a response! Thanks for writing this article - it came up at last week's meeting right when we were closing out, but we didn't have time to go over it. I just moved your article from a pitch status to pending review, since it seems like it's all wrapped up (for future reference, if you do this, it will help us know that your article is all ready to go faster). I can't remember if Ryan or Paul have taken a look at this one yet - if not, I can try to tackle this one to get it put on the schedule sooner than later since you've been waiting on a review for so long. Is there any info left that you will want to look over before we prep it for publication? Thanks for being so patient - but if you don't hear from us for a long time, don't be afraid to pop into #fedora-magazine on Freenode and ask if anyone has had a chance to check out your article! :) -- Cheers, Justin W.
