Fedora9/KDE4 talk @ akademy2008
by Rex Dieter
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?

four f's iconography
by Máirín Duffy
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? :)

distributor spin
by Arnav Kalra
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

Recording equipment for FUDCon?
by Jonathan Roberts
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 :)

distributor spin
by Arnav Kalra
actually i do not know how to create one. well that spin would be patented
and it would not be fedora. it would be the creators own os based on fedora.
a tutorial would need to be given in the downloaded file on how to create an
iso and how to brand it

Oops! I Fixed the Linux Kernel
by Rahul Sundaram
Hi,
http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3767236/Oops+I+Fixed+the...
"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
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."
