Self Introduction: Mike Ruckman
by Mike Ruckman 11 Oct '13

11 Oct '13

Hello Marketing! My name is Mike Ruckman and I've been working on QA for a bit now. One of the things I'm hoping to do is help spread the word about Fedora's QA activities (as well as Fedora as a whole) and thought helping out with the marketing end of things would be beneficial. I'm familiar with marketing and pretend to be a wordsmith in my free time. Per talks in IRC I'll be posting some to the Magazine. I'll be watching this list and piping up during meetings on IRC. I look forward to working with you all! // Roshi irc: roshi | blog: roshi.fedorapeople.org

Introducing Pete Travis to the Marketing group
by Pete Travis 09 Oct '13

09 Oct '13

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I've threatened to contribute some content to Fedora magazine several times, and have finally decided to get the ball rolling :) I've been more or less involved with the project for a couple years now, as I have time. For the most part, I hack on documentation and help on IRC. Sometimes I offer opinions in community discussions, too. I have only a vague awareness of marketing and branding concepts, so I probably won't be bringing any big ideas to the group. I'd like to be able to write an article for the Magazine from time to time, attend a meeting on the off chance that I have time for it, and generally just learn from the experience. - -- - -- Pete Travis - Fedora Docs Project Leader - 'randomuser' on freenode - immanetize(a)fedoraproject.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.14 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJSVHJVAAoJEL1wZM0+jj2ZUyIH/28FxexoeXy9Ab/vcFzKTD4w z4kpLam03WzHm39xRjBO9Jg2O4CBscy9jeiZt5y/X0bEL97wO3ozT/Spu1Op5omM B4IhANQIQq6r8NYDie0Rhhw9YAm5hBjV9or68Bi+1o8qCxRzCDBgZE23gtT75jju 0ET0CqQzVxnvHdsJOxCp1WuDvGrAKBbicjS3J/OWf5GA3BdWQDrTTA/1Rj8oROIw 2s+kOBIVcFoA7pefWCt7XiBR8jzi+olvgCifN1X91m/tB8Bz2y1Dovo0dSLPRnh3 NVsCxqo3tRkGytbhDGXURROfAPbXAXKDAqg0LlJ16sGqxMcSqpel725jW7pvEow= =RuB0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Today's meeting
by Ruth Suehle 07 Oct '13

07 Oct '13

My day's getting busy, and I may miss the meeting in an hour. If so, here's what I had to talk about, which largely has already been covered on-list: - The cloud brochures are finished and on their way to LinuxCon Europe: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Cloud_brochure - The YouTube channel at youtube.com/fedoraproject has been reclaimed, and nitesh has volunteered to move the Flock videos over. I do think now we need to talk more about our video strategy and standards for video rather than upload anything and everything. (If you're on the video team list, I sent a message there to this effect last week.)

Magazine site issues
by Chris A. Roberts 07 Oct '13

07 Oct '13

Hi, Over the weekend , the magazine site got the white screen of death. JZB is working with Openshift to get us more resources. It looks like the cause of this was the plugin Jetpack. Mitzie and I worked together to get the site back up and running. I am asking that we keep Jetpack turned off until we get more ram/hdd space to prevent further outages. Thanks, Chris Roberts Fedora Marketing/Websites/Videos/Infrastructure Team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Chrisroberts

Countdown banners for F20 are up!
by Ankur Sinha 02 Oct '13

02 Oct '13

Hi, We have banners ready for use at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F20_Artwork/Submissions/Banners It'll be a good idea to put a word out about these. Apparently the Alpha banners were already around, but no one seemed to know about them. A post on the magazine, perhaps? My ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/291#comment:4 I'll file a ticket with the websites team so they can get the JS ready that folks can use on their blogs to automatically change the banners from Alpha -> Beta -> Countdown -> F20! -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur (FranciscoD) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Join Fedora! Come talk to us! http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Join_SIG

Great Ankur! I will add it in the sidebar of the magazine as well, like we did with the F19 banner.
