[Fedora-marketing-list] About changing the PressArchive page.

by susmit shannigrahi

Hi all, This is about the PressArchieve page http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/PressArchive Today I was adding some articles to it and suddenly i found that it was not attracting me at all, the main reason being it too long and filled with so many links. I think this would be better if we >> keep only a main table consisting of a primary indexes here. (Say FC6,FC7,General,Indexes and so on.) >>Link those indexes to seperate pages, >> We can create a page for each elements, That is one page for FC6 ,another for FC7 , another for interviews etc etc. This will have two advantages. >> This page will be more neat. >> Findind out links on a particular topic will be easy. What do you think about it? If you agree, I can do that myself. Oh, Merry Christmas and Happy new year to you all. Regards, Susmit, Fedora Ambassador,India -- ssh *0x86DD170A*

by Nicola Losito

How comes that in these last days I've never heard a word about Fedora Legacy slow dying ? I think it's a great loss, that it will affect a not so little portion of audience and that will need some changing in the release cycle of ours future releases of Fedora. Am i the only one seeing this ? -- Nicola .:kOoLiNuS:. Losito http://koolinus.wordpress.com ITA => http://www.koolinus.net

[Fedora-marketing-list] Dutch "Linux starter" magazine has a full Fedora Core 6 issue

by hymno

Hi, I'm Herman from Holland and I'm new here. (I joined because I like Fedora Core a lot, and I think it could make a lot more people feel better at their computers.) Besides the Linux Magazine (wrapped in secret-hiding plastic) I also saw an €8,95 "Linus Starter" magazine in Dutch, with an FC6 DVD. This is widely available in small bookshops/news paper stands (such as in train stations and somewhat larger towns). The last time I saw this it was a Linspire issue, over a year ago. Not as slick as Lin.Mag., but it looks very informative, very beginner proof and yet very much to the point. A white Fedora on the cover. Interestingly, they didn't take Ubuntu although it is all the hype now, at least in Europe Ubuntu is more widely used than FC. I haven't bought it yet for temporary lack of cash but if anybody here wants me to buy it so I can tell you of its contents, please tell me. regards, Herman

[Fedora-marketing-list] Fedora LiveCD versus LiveSpin

by Maxime Carron

Hi, To spread Fedora and all its stuffs, I'm curently writind a few lines about liveCD, for french community documentation. I was only writing about the FedoraUnity project which is LiveSpin. But the FWN 70 presents an "official LiveCD" with lots of new fun features. Before updating my note, I would like to know if this new LiveCD is still in development or fully usable? What will happend to LiveSpin? Do I still promote it? Thanks for your advices, Maxime -- Maxime Carron <maxime.carron(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Ambassador Fedora-fr Community Manager

[Fedora-marketing-list] Directory services made easy with Fedora Directory Server

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi "Directory services play a vital part in today's networks by helping administrators manage network users and resources. Until recently, the only choice for deploying a secure and easy-to-use open source directory server was OpenLDAP. While it gets the job done, it lacks the polish of commercial alternatives. Now Fedora Directory Server (FDS), Red Hat's open source LDAP server, makes setting up an enterprise directory server on Linux simple." http://enterprise.linux.com/enterprise/06/11/28/2019258.shtml?tid=129&tid...
