Let me add a few more: Did you transcribe a session? How many? Was the documentation clear what you were supposed to do? Did you feel like there was alot of interaction on the IRC channel? Did you take any questions from IRC? If so, how many? Did you volunteer to transcribe a session? Did the session leader openly ask for a transcriber? How many people in your session volunteered to transcribe. Is English your native tongue? > > -Yaakov

We'll also be working on this tomorrow, Monday, > > December 7th through the same time. > > - pascal Hello, I've been trying to sort of trudge through and implement some of the workflow objects, and I've run into a couple of errors within the Pagemaster module. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Dale/Zikula_FWN_Testing#Zikula_Modules After creating a Pub Type while proceeding to create a Pub Field, one is presented with several PHP warnings along this line: Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of [runtime function name](). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. However, future versions may not support this any longer. in /usr/share/zikula/modules/pagemaster/classes/FormPlugins/pmformlistinput.class.php on line 71 Those are not a hindrance. However, after creating a Pub Type called "Beats" with a Fieldtype of "List" there is a blocker. You can see the result here or in the screenshot on my scratch page above. https://publictest6.fedoraproject.org/zikula/index.php?module=pagemaster&ty… The form snippet for editing the list is drawn off to the left of the screen. This may be due to the following error which is triggered when clicking the "Pubtype form" link in the toolbar. Javascript livepipe package was not found or it's incomplete. It's required for the plugin configuration modalbox. Please download it and copy into your site. The download link leads to here, but there is no "livepipe". Only Pagemaster releases from 1 year ago. http://code.zikula.org/pagemaster/downloads -- Dale Bewley - Unix Administrator - Shields Library - UC Davis GPG: 0xB098A0F3 0D5A 9AEB 43F4 F84C 7EFD 1753 064D 2583 B098 A0F3

virt beat done
by Dale Bewley 06 Dec '09

06 Dec '09

The virt beat is probably about as done as I may find time to make it today. However, I added a snippet on an upcoming Red Hat event, 'red hat virtual experience'. So Hendrixee... Is this "advertisement" acceptable to everyone? It seems relevant to the readers. If so, and if anyone would like to spruce up the copy I summarized from the event page, feel free. Or send suggestions. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN/Beats/Virtualization

Zikula hackfest gameplan
by Mel Chua 05 Dec '09

05 Dec '09

Our gameplan for the next two days: everything is at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zikula_hackfest. Please ask questions, point out holes, etc. - we literally *just* came up with this. This is also where you can sign up to help. (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zikula_hackfest#Who.27s_coming) I think that Sparks and ke4qqq were planning on spending some time with us, which would be *awesome* - and that mmcgrath will be dropping by at the end of both days to check in - but I'm not sure what people's plans actually are, so I just took a guess for me/Simon/Pascal to start. (Simon, Pascal, feel free to edit this to something more correct and/or preferential....) I defaulted to #fedora-mktg as our IRC channel for the day, because I know we're going to have remote participants, but would be glad to move it to a more neutral place if there's a better location for this (if #fedora-logistics were populated, I'd do it there). Comments? Thoughts? Halp? Yay! We'll keep you updated. --Mel

Simon's FUDCon zikula session notes
by Mel Chua 05 Dec '09

05 Dec '09

Simon Birtwistle's talk, just completed, on zikula - a CMS that's going to be used by Docs and Marketing and News (in various ways for each). It was awesomeness, and the crowd was fun. http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fudcon-room-2/2009-12-05/fudcon-room-2.200… Max and I had this transcribing-tag-team-thing going on here, so the full logs are pretty complete (WOO! LOGS!) - we ended with a game plan for the hackfest on Sunday and Monday, which I'll post shortly. --Mel
