[Magazine] GPG Article 3 Ready for Review
by charles profitt 08 Feb '16

08 Feb '16

The article is ready for review. The Flesch Reading Ease score is skewed due to the mass of encrypted text. I tested the score w/o the encrypted text and it was good to go. https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=11847&preview=true

Neville Cross reply.

Hello everyone, . As Neville isn't in the list, he sent me this reply to forward it to you all. "I am in a rural area with bad coverage and even worse data on my cell. I keep using gnome because is what Fedora has as primary focus. As ambassador I represent fedora and therefore I need to be able to talk to people about gnome and show that it comes fluid, I am not guessing. Now is workstation and I feel that is it expected to endorse it as ambassador. Specially when everybody else in the local community is ditching gnome for various different reasons. So, if you want to scratch all that and just write that I use wirkstation, it if fine by me. The rewording is very good. If you want to keep some of the balanced view, I think it is very diplomatic. Thanks for reviewing my interview. Neville" Cheers, Sylvia

Marketing-trac: #199: Subproject logo stickers or set of subproject stickers

#199: Subproject logo stickers or set of subproject stickers ------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: zoltanh721 | Owner: zoltanh721 Type: task | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: other | Severity: not-urgent Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | ------------------------+------------------------- Hi, I think it would be a good idea to make an series of small stickers like our "powered by Fedora" one is. The purpose would be that we can put good word what we the community has created, or using to create Fedora - instead of "powered by" I would like to replace with " I use" or "We use". We have nice logo for Bodhi, Koji, Dnf or others. This will provide on my (or on others laptop) more attention, and questions towards to the event ambassadors. Opinions? -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/199> marketing-team <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing> Marketing team for the Fedora project.
