Introducing myself & Python 3.7 beta article
by Petr Viktorin 21 Mar '18

21 Mar '18

Hello! I'm Petr Viktorin, member of Fedora's Python SIG, and Python maintainer by trade. I'd like to pitch an article on Python 3.7 beta, which was recently packaged for everyone to test. I'm afraid I didn't read the instructions soon enough, and I have a draft rather than a pitch. Hopefully that won't be a problem: https://pviktori.fedorapeople.org/fm_py37b2.html Does this look workable?

Wordpress Code Highlighter plugin
by Clement Verna 12 Mar '18

12 Mar '18

Hi all, The current formatting of code example in the magazine is not great, it is missing some syntax highlighting :). There are some plugins for wordpress that could be helpful here, for example [0]. Is that something we could consider ? If yes what would be the process to add a plugin ? Thanks Clément [0] - https://wordpress.org/plugins/codecolorer/

HDYF Articles -- Moving from Another Distro to Fedora :: update
by charles profitt 08 Mar '18

08 Mar '18

Hello all: Yes, I am still alive. The robotics season is about to come to a close and I should be able to get the HDYF series started again. I will also start working on the migration from another distro to Fedora article as well. My hope is to have the first HDYF article ready for the first week of April and the Distro article shortly after that. My apologies for being under a rock for the last few months. Charles

Hello team, Paul, Ryan, we recieve a comment in the magazine, that is a little bit inappropiate, it talks about politics, maybe consider deleting it: https://screenshots.firefox.com/5J5deizeNTao5ieK/fedoramagazine.org https://fedoramagazine.org/fedora-podcast-episode-002-is-out/#comment-475957 (it's the same comment both links, just in case) Sorry, to ping you on this but it was a little annoying to me.
