Comment:
I think this is a good idea, since we are starting to use the Fedora
Marketing Trac more. I will create one and send out to the mailing list
for review and once accepted I will post to the Wiki.

20131029 Fedora Workstation working group meeting summary: draft 1
by Ankur Sinha
Hi,
It's my first draft. It's rather formal since I converted whatever notes
I'd made from the logs into sentences and paragraphs. I don't think
there should be any factual errors in it though. A proofread is most
welcome:

> Summary:
>
> The first ever Fedora Workstation Working Group IRC meeting was held recently on
> the 29th of October. The Workstation Working Group is one of the three main
> working groups tasked with the creation of the Fedora workstation product, the
> other two being the Fedora Cloud and the Fedora Server. The complete proposal,
> as explained by Matthew Miller, can be found on the Fedora project wiki here:
> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora.next/boardproposal . In short, the default
> Fedora product, which the Fedora Desktop Spin is traditionally seen as, will be
> replaced by the three aforementioned products. The community's resources: QA,
> marketing, others, will then be allocated towards these three products. Note
> that this does not limit Fedora to three products: it merely attempts to
> prioritize these three as core products, or "ring 1". The community is still
> free to produce other products in parallel, in lower priority rings such as
> ring 2, 3, and so on. One practical aspect of these rings is that products
> in rings 2 and onwards can therefore be governed by less stringent policies.
>
> The Workstation Working Group is composed of 9 members that were chosen by FESCo
> from a list of nominees:
> - Owen Taylor
> - Kalev Lember:
> - Christoph Wickert
> - Lukas Tinkl
> - Jens Petersen
> - Ryan Lerch
> - Matthias Clasen
> - Christain Schaller
> - Josh Boyer
>
> Out of the 9, one member, Josh Boyer, is the liaison to FESCo. Such a liaison is
> a requirement of all three working groups and is chosen by FESCo.
>
> [TODO: write a little about each member, and what they bring to the working group]
>
> The formal annoumcement can be found here:
> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2013-October/001...
> The complete list of nominees can be found here:
> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora.next/WG_Nominations#Fedora_Workstat...
>
> This first meeting aimed at getting all members of the working group up to speed
> with recent happenings. FESCo has tasked each working group with two tasks:
> - Deciding on their governance model, i.e., how will members be chosen in the
> future, what tenure they serve, how are members that leave replaced, and
> such. A first proposal of this governance charter is already under discussion on
> the mailing list:
> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/desktop/2013-October/008245.html
> Upon completion, it will be placed on the Fedora project wiki.
>
> - Drafting a PRD (Product requirements document). As wikipedia explains, the
> function of this document is to define product itself: it's scope, what
> problems it aims to solve, what is required to create this product.
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_requirements_document
>
> Other than these two tasks, which volunteers from the working group are
> now working on, the secondary goal of the meeting was to decide on the channels
> that the group would use to communicate. The existing fedora desktop mailing
> list (desktop(a)lists.fedoraproject.org) will be used as the mailing list for the
> workstation group. A new IRC channel: #fedora-workstation has been created on
> Freenode to be used by people interested in conversing about the product.
>
> In the open floor, the subject of desktop environment sprung up. Members were
> interested in discussing whether they'd stick to a single desktop environment
> for the workstation product, and what this would mean for other desktop
> environments that are available in Fedora. After a short discussion, it was
> decided that this will be taken up once the PRD has been agreed on.
>
> The meeting was short and to the point. Since the working group initiative has
> only just kicked off, meetings in the future will have more matter to report on.
> Do keep an eye out on the meeting-minutes mailing list for future meetings, or
> the fedora magazine for meeting summaries.

Magazine meeting posts
by Chris A. Roberts
Hi everyone,
In today's meeting we talked about changing how we do meetings from just posting the minutes to the site, to doing a weekly recap. Nirik came up with this awesome suggestion and I +1 it. My thoughts are someone can come in and get a better idea of what has happened that week in just one spot rather than sort through all the meeting notes.
Thoughts or flames?

Self-Introduction: Germano
by Germano Massullo
Hi, my name is Germano and I live in Italy. My FAS username is germano.
I learned about the Fedora Marketing team through Fedora project
website, and am interested in joining because I already promote Fedora
in my city, in many different ways.
Other FOSS projects I am involved on: OpenStreetMap, BOINC.
A couple of goals I have for the Fedora Project are: maximize Fedora
userbase by introducing people that are not using a FOSS operating
system and helping finding new contributors for Fedora project.
Best regards

Fedora Videos GCI Tasks
by nitesh narayan lal
Hi,
I was thinking to get the simpler tasks of Fedora Videos done through
Google Code In 2013.
I had gathered few points :
*Make Videos From Selected Questions List On Ask Fedora
*Create posters, banners and other promotional stuff for Videos which could
be
posted on mailing list & blogs
*Make a video introducing Fedora Videos & our motive
The above tasks needs more refinement.
Please feel free to give your suggestions about the other tasks which we
could add.
