problems with facebook as a way to reach users
by Matthew Miller
This is probably old hat to some of the social media experts here, but I
found it enlightening, especially in light of recent comments about our
presence there. <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9ZqXlHl65g>
It certainly mirrors my experience with the Facebook group -- lots of
members, but very low engagement.

Moving "audit log" to Fedora Magazine Production
by Chris Roberts
Hi Everyone,
I am moving the audit log plugin to the Production instance. It passed the tests and did not degrade performance or cause any errors with the database. I logged into the staging instance and I guess it logs failed login attempts too. See the attached screen shot. This might help in blocking some malicious IP's that get past askimet on the site.
Thanks,
Chris Roberts

I just remixed the pixelated lock one I did a few weeks back and added a password field.
It's uploaded and added to your post. (The image is in the github repo too if you want to edit it further)
The post is awesome, when I get to my desk I think I have to setup pass. :)
Publish at will! (IMHO)

Tomorrow would be awesome. I really have not much else lined up, and a longer article would be great.
Alsodo you have a featured image in mind for the post? I can whip one up in the morning too if you want.

Longer-form post for Monday?
by Joe Brockmeier
Hi all,
Sorry for the tardiness, but I just put my "pass" piece in the queue on
Fedora Magazine.
Would it be best to hold it for tomorrow, or next Monday, or...?
I see two pieces that went up today. I want to be sure to space things
out appropriately. Note that this is an "evergreen" piece, so it could
stay in the queue for a while.
Best,
jzb

Autoposting fedora magazine posts to the google+ page
by Ryan Lerch
Hi all,
the "Publicize" Jetpack feature is now enabled on the Fedora Magazine,
and this provides the ability to autopost new articles on the magazine
to google+ (and a bunch of other social services like twitter too).
However, i don't have access to the google+ page for Fedora, and can't
set it up. Is there anyone on this list that has access to the google+
page that can enable this?
cheers,

Okies, we will settle on Mondays for the long article release day. I'll queue up Mo's post to publish on Monday.
Anyone else keen to write a longer article for next Monday?

Updated Magazine Post Ideas
by Ryan Lerch
The Fedora Magazine is going awesome this month, we are almost at the
same number of page views as the entirety of last month, and it is only
the 18th.
That said, we need to keep the awesome content coming, so i have been
adding a few ideas for posts into the drafts section[1] of Wordpress,
and changing the author to "admin" these are open to anyone that might
want to write them up!
Also, if you have an idea for a post, feel free to throw up a quick idea
synopsis in a draft.
the open drafts currently there are:
* a quick blog post about the FreeOTP app
* a more in depth article about notetaking apps in fedora (there are
*heaps* of great options in fedora)
* an app spotlight article on Calibre, the ebook management tool

Re: Fedocal] Reminder meeting : Marketing Meeting
by Chris Collings
I'm happy to come along and contribute to marketing meetings. After eventually getting my head round working with irc I came to one of the last ones. Whenever I meet a new group of people I don't want to join the conversation without getting a feel of what's already going on. However I'm happy to help where necessary.
I agree with Joe that we should have specific objectives to discuss at each meeting. I also would like to see clear cut goals so that we can tell what marketing activities we need to be focusing on.
Also we need to discuss whether it will be an advantage to split into 3 marketing groups, each concentrating on one area of fedora next. A client that uses desktop is not necessarily going to need cloud etc. So different types of marketing may be required.
