Fedora9/KDE4 talk @ akademy2008
by Rex Dieter 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

Looks like my talk at akademy is now available. http://stecchino.blip.tv/file/1200031/ available there in flash/ogg. Sound isn't the best unfortunately. I was nervous enough to forget the standard "can everyone hear me ok?" question to start. oh well. :) Would be a good candidate for adding to fedora-tv. Should we(fedora) host it locally somewhere first? If so, where? Am I asking enough dumb questions yet? Not yet, really? How about now? -- Rex

four f's iconography
by Máirín Duffy 26 Aug '08

26 Aug '08

Hey folks, So in the marketing meeting we briefly discussed the status of the Four F's posters and such. I think the best idea is to use the design of the three fedora principles posters we have now, but instead make them focus on the four F's, and replace the Fedora logo parts in the posters with icons specifically drawn to represent the four f's. I've attached a rough sketch of my suggestions for the ideas. They are rough sketches so discussion can focus on the concepts rather than the rendering. Features was the toughest one - but let's talk through them all if you have any issues with them conceptually and come up with the best representations. Sound cool? :) ~m

distributor spin
by Arnav Kalra 25 Aug '08

25 Aug '08

well i want to make a spin which contains the good packages out of everything tree, is installable, download able and using this 'fedora' spin we can make other spins using the everything tree, other rpms and other software you get from anywhere. but we also need to have shell scripts using which we access that program. so let me give an example. person A uses fedora he has a friend named B who is tired of windows. so his B requests A to give him linux in which his windows games and some other apps can run. so A will use this spin to make a spin in which B's games and other apps are preinstalled and run using wine

teacher certification in ... free culture?
by Karsten Wade 24 Aug '08

http://blog.nj.com/jerseyblogs/2008/08/going_google_talking_with_goog.html An interview with a New Jersey teacher who went to Google for a day to learn about bringing various modern social web tools in to the classroom. I can imagine how cool it was. Not being there, I have to presume the focus was on the well-integrated tools that Google offers and not, for example, on the open source software underneath them. From a perspective of bringing more open source to educators, what are equivalents that Fedora could be doing here? Oh, and, uh, for less cash outlay. :) - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Sr. Developer Community Mgr. Dev Fu : http://developer.redhatmagazine.com Fedora : http://quaid.fedorapeople.org gpg key : AD0E0C41

by Jonathan Roberts 24 Aug '08

24 Aug '08

Hi, This is a long shot, but is there any chance people will be bringing some recording equipment to FUDCon Brno? I'd like to get *good* recordings (audio + video) if possible of as many talks as possible so that we can upload them as the conference goes along :) Jon

Oops! I Fixed the Linux Kernel
by Rahul Sundaram 23 Aug '08

23 Aug '08

Hi, http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3767236/Oops+I+Fixed+the+L… "Fedora Project leader Paul Frields told InternetNews.com that the Kerneloops package automatically delivers the messages the kernel dumps into a repository the kernel maintainers can use to prioritize, diagnose and fix problems. "Fedora is involved because we track the kernel very aggressively," Frields said. "The Kerneloops capability also supports our dedication to a healthy cooperation with upstream software providers like the kernel developer community. It leverages the widespread use of Fedora for the direct benefit of that community, who can see measurable results of their work and shift resources as needed to target frequent or important issues."

Intruders disrupt Fedora, Red Hat
by Rahul Sundaram 22 Aug '08

Hi http://www.tectonic.co.za/?p=2803 "Some of Fedora’s servers were “accessed illegally” last week but, the Fedora team said in an email today, the intrusion “was quickly discovered, and the servers were taken offline”. “Security specialists and administrators have been working since then to analyze the intrusion and the extent of the compromise as well as reinstall Fedora systems,” the team said in its infrastructure report today."
