[magazine] 5 MILLION page views!
by Paul W. Frields 06 Jan '17

06 Jan '17

Today we hit *5 MILLION* total page views. Almost half of those (a little less than 2.4 million) came in 2016. This has been a *spectacular* year for the Magazine. Congratulations to our Editor in Chief, Justin Flory, and thanks to everyone who's participated in any way with this success -- writers, editors, and other contributors. This couldn't have happened without you! -- Paul W.

[magazine] FreeOrion article & package are ready
by Link Dupont 06 Jan '17

06 Jan '17

Hi folks, The FreeOrion article[1] and package[2] are ready for the synchronized publish and push to bodhi/testing. The push itself takes a day or two, so once we know the publish date of the article, I'll make sure to submit the update a couple days beforehand. ~link 1: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=15847&preview=1&_ppp=630d61bb13 2: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/freeorion/

[magazine] Article idea/draft
by Link Dupont 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

Hi folks, I finished up my freeorion package and it's now pending karma in Bodhi. I wrote a "FreeOrion is coming to Fedora" article that I thought could be a cool way to tie back to the article last month about compiling and installing FreeOrion manually. Now that freeorion has an official package, I tried to angle this article with "how you can help contribute". I explain Bodhi briefly, and provide links to the packages. I wrote an initial draft, but I think it needs some rework. I feel like it could be structured as: 1) Introduction - remember the other FreeOrion article? Well now freeorion is coming to Fedora, but... 2) It needs your help! Install with updates-testing and try out the game. Provide feedback on Bodhi. 3) What is Bodhi? Why does a staging/testing service exist? (maybe expose a bit of the "behind-the-curtain" about what purpose Bodhi serves to Fedora?)
