(jflory7, 21:06:33)

follow up on last week's introduction - going to abstract out one
more concept before getting the Wallpaper Inkscape article to the
publishing schedule (jflory7, 21:12:19)

(jflory7, 21:14:42)
* === "C99 feature support in GCC on Fedora Linux" === (jflory7,
21:15:45)
* LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14646&preview=1&_ppp=2397efa84a
(jflory7, 21:15:49)
* stickster reached out to a Fedora GCC maintainer for feedback,
passed along those comments and feedback to the original author -
have not yet received a response back, but if no word back by next
week, this article can be moved to holding pen if we are unable to
finish it (jflory7, 21:16:44)

* LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14310&preview=1&_ppp=94f452606e
(jflory7, 21:17:17)
* jflory7 reached out to devyani7 on this article a while back and she
has made some progress on writing it, but will follow up to see if
we can set a target date for this one (jflory7, 21:17:47)

* ACTION: jflory7 Reach out to devyani7 about setting a target date
for Fedora Hubs intro article (jflory7, 21:18:51)
* IDEA: Current article structure is a little confusing since it's a
lot of abstract content - might be good idea to restructure article
from a blank slate and cherry pick pieces from original (jflory7,
21:24:44)
* IDEA: Writing a "Hello world!" program as first task in this article
(jflory7, 21:24:53)
* IDEA: Introducing Python in Fedora => Finding a development
environment (installing libraries and IDEs from repos, etc.) =>
Popular tools and Python tricks (pip in virtualenv, etc.) => Where
to get help / learn more about Python in Fedora (jflory7, 21:25:29)
* ACTION: x3mboy Based on feedback from meeting, try rewriting the
"Starting with Python in Fedora" from a blank slate, cherry-picking

* LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14475&preview=1&_ppp=4f214a5a7c
(jflory7, 21:29:23)
* IDEA: Pictures would help improve this article! (jflory7, 21:32:34)
* IDEA: Screenshots of terminal output can be converted to plaintext
in the article post - screenshots of the final product would be
helpful or other examples of projects (jflory7, 21:33:31)
* ACTION: stickster Reach out to sumantrom with editing advice /
comments / feedback on the Web VR article and how to refine it
further into a polished piece for the Magazine (jflory7, 21:34:51)

article to holding pen (jflory7, 21:35:13)

* LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=15006&preview=1&_ppp=f73733af10
(jflory7, 21:49:01)
* Solid technical article that explains the "how" well (jflory7,
21:50:35)
* IDEA: More introduction to kickstarts, Rawhide, qcow2, etc. would be
helpful to set the article up (jflory7, 21:50:55)

built in! Wow! This would be super cool to cover too! (jflory7,
21:59:24)
* Whoa, Cockpit now also supports 2FA authentication? How cool is
that? A short-and-sweet Magazine article would be double-cool!
(jflory7, 21:59:54)
* IDEA: There's even the all-platform Fedora Media Writer for making
your Fedora USBs at any time from any operating system! That's so
amazing, I bet the Magazine team would love to have an article on
the Fedora Media Writer! (jflory7, 22:00:44)
