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,

Hi Natalie - so this is actually a really good question…
Right now, the Community Blog is handled by the CommOps team:
* Wiki: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/CommOps * Mailing list: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/commops.lists.fedoraproject.org/
At the moment, though, I'm currently the only editor for the CommBlog (before, it was mostly me and decause before he departed). So I'm the only person going through the queue, making edits, and scheduling articles. I try to run it similarly to the Magazine in terms of reviewing content, but the barrier to publish is much lower, so content isn't as heavily reviewed and polished as we do on the Magazine.
Generally, for the CommBlog, when someone has an article ready, they will set it to "pending review" and drop a line on the CommOps mailing list notifying us that it's ready to be looked at and scheduled. I'll swing by it and try to make sure no more than one article is scheduled a day (so this way, every bit of news gets a full day to be on the front page, since content gets pushed down so quickly in the CommBlog theme).
It's on my list very-quickly-soon-ASAP to write a guide / help page on how to be an editor for the Community Blog, so that way people who are savvy with English / editing can jump in and help out. For now, you can ping me directly for anything related to the CommBlog.
Hope this helps answer your question. :)
Hi Justin,
