Pending / to-publish articles + author notification
by Joe Brockmeier
Hey all,
So - we've had a piece from roshi sitting in "pending" for more than two
weeks. If we're going to institute some kind of system where pieces have
to be approved / scheduled, we should communicate with the authors and
ensure these things are being scheduled / dealt with in a timely manner.
* Nothing that's not embargoed should sit longer than a few days,
especially when we have a dearth of content.
* If a piece needs editing, then we need to communicate that to the author.
* If a piece is somehow unsuitable, we need to let the author know.
While we have some discussions/plans for a "community focused"
blog/publication off in the future, it's not here now. We aren't exactly
flooded with content either - there's no good reason not to publish
these things on Fedora Magazine for now.
Best,
jzb

Powertop article
by Ryan Lerch
Hey Paul!
I noticed that you have a pitch in the queue for a powertop article.
I put one in a while back for the gnome-battery-bench (based off an idea
to the list by mattdm iirc)
and I think it might be good to just mention the battery bench in the
powertop article, rather than have two seperate ones.
thoughts?

Introduction
by Josef Stribny
Hi all,
I am Josef, a Fedora contributor, who is currently co-maintaining Ruby,
Rails and Vagrant among other packages. I am joining as I would like to
publish an article on upcoming Vagrant as a Fedora 22 feature. In fact,
the article is almost ready, so I just need access to submit it:).
I hope I can contribute with other content in future as well.
Best Regards
Josef

last minute review of release announcement?
by Matthew Miller
I plan to send this out tomorrow morning at the Appointed Time.
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F22_Final_release_announcement>
Thanks especially to Joe Brockmeier for writing some of the best bits
here. A lot of the rest is cobbled together from the F22 talking points
and beta announcements.
It seems pretty good, but maybe a little bit too... releasenotesy. Any
last minute adjustments or feedback?

Marketing meeting?
by Gabriele Trombini
Hi guys,
next thursday will be held the readiness meeting and at May 26 (if the
go/no go meeting will give thumbs up) is scheduled the final release.
I think we should meet for discussing about the things to be done by us
and taking our time for checking the tickets and more.
Of course is difficult getting it before the readiness meeting, but
we're just in time for the final relase.
Choosing a day of this week would be good.
The agenda I suggest is:
1) check the mktg schedule
https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-22/f-22-marketing-tasks.html
2) check the mktg tickets
https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/report/1
3) fedora magazine (news, improvements, suggestions and so on).
Feel free to complete the list.
Thanks
Gabri

Hey mate!
Yeah, there is one sentence in the article.
Also, the marketing list here is where we discuss magazine related stuff.

Magazine Pitch: Stellarium on Fedora
by Ryan Lerch
hi R Mercado!
Just checking up on your pitch for the magazine Article about Stellarium
on Fedora!
I think this would be a great article for the app-spotlight style like a
few I have done in the past. Are you still keen to work on this one?
cheers,

final release announcement....
by Matthew Miller
So, I'm starting to work on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F22_Final_release_announcement
because Tuesday will be here before we know it. :)
I was reviewing http://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-21/, and
wow, that came out well. Hopefully we can make it that pretty this time
around as well.
Who is in to help?
Here's the format I'm thinking — first, a first-person announcement
from the FPL (I like the conversational, informal approach — but please
feel free to let me know if that's hubris), followed by a Highlights
section, drawn from the talking points
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_22_talking_points>, and then
basically cut-and-pasting s/21/22/ the "Downloads, upgrades,
documentation, and common bugs" section from the F21 announcement.
