October 2007 - [MOVED TO DISCOURSE] Fedora Marketing - https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/tag/marketing

by Alejo Cerrat0

Hi, my name is Alejo Cerrato, and I'm Marketing Director of a medium size company in SoFla. I'm very interested in improve my skills on Linux and colaborate with the Fedora Project. So far I've found that if you are not very skilled in Linux it is hard to follow all the steps as they are indicated to succesfully become a contributor. And I guess that there may be people willing to colaborate, but without the minimum Linux skills to do so. For some reason (and I'm not trying to get any help here in this list) I can't validate my CLA. I wonder how many people got discouraged in becoming a contributor because of the complexity of the process, and the intrinsec bureaucracy. I understand at the same time that it has to be done in a secure environment. I'm going to keep on trying and get my CLA validated asap. But at the same time I'll like to help make this process easier for the contributors-to-be, people that may lack Linux knowledge but have other skills that could help. AlejoCerrato.//

Ars at FOSSCamp: revolutionizing the command line with Hotwire

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi I have been using it regularly for sometime now. Very powerful and extensible. http://arstechnica.com/journals/linux.ars/2007/10/29/ars-at-fosscamp-revo... "Colin Walters of Red Hat chaired a FOSSCamp session about Hotwire, a unique and innovative graphical shell environment designed to improve the command-line user experience. I've been testing Hotwire releases for some time now, so the opportunity to see Walters present his invention in person seemed too good to pass up." Rahul

Website selling linux computers

by Marc Wiriadisastra

We had a list a long time ago on companies that sell linux computers/laptops on the wiki. I have just found this website and it looks quite cheap compared to where I live. http://www.fc64.org/ Can we update the list on the wiki? Cheers, Marc

PulseAudio by default in Fedora 8!

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi PulseAudio is really cool thing I haven't heard much of a buzz about. Check it out. http://digg.com/linux_unix/PulseAudio_by_default_in_Fedora_8 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Interviews/LennartPoettering "PulseAudio is a next-generation sound server for GNU/Linux, creating the possibility of enabling all sorts of "ear-candy": it's possible to dynamically control the volume of individual applications, and hot-plugging works great with it. Read on for more details, including what can be expected in the future." Rahul

New Display Tool Coming In Fedora 9

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi I am not sure how concrete these details are. Interesting however. http://digg.com/linux_unix/New_Display_Tool_Coming_In_Fedora_9 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NjE1NQ " There's less than two weeks now until the release of Fedora 8, which has been codenamed Werewolf. However, it's not too early to start thinking about Fedora 9. One of the items that has already been brought up for this next release cycle is a new display utility. While there is the rather basic system-config-display utility from Red Hat, Fedora is currently lacking a graphical tool to change or enable display devices (such as LCDs or TVs) in real-time.

Joke Fedora certificate of authenticity (based on the joke Ubuntu one)

by Benjamin Lewis

Just saw this: http://ubuntology.com/2007/10/26/ubuntu-certificate-of-authenticity/ I have to say, I think it would be really funny if someone made a Fedora one! May be a bit of advertising, if someone happens to look at the bottom of you laptop... ;) -- Benjamin Lewis Fedora Ambassador ben.lewis(a)benl.co.uk ----------------------------------------------------------------------- http://benl.co.uk./ PGP Key: 0x647E480C "In cases of major discrepancy, it is always reality that got it wrong" -- RFC 1118
