F24 Marketing retrospective
by Justin W. Flory 29 Jun '16

29 Jun '16

Hey all, As mentioned in our last meeting, we wanted to put together a short retrospective about how we did this past release cycle as a team, what worked well, how we could improve, and more. To read more about the *what* of a retrospective, please see this page. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_retrospective I created the page for the F24 Marketing retrospective, which you can find here. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F24_marketing_retrospective I used the Marketing retrospective template as the base for creating this release's retrospective. If you want to see an example of a completed / filled out retrospective, see this one from 2015 as an example. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/2015_marketing_retrospective Regardless of who you are or how much you contributed this release cycle, if you have any thoughts or feedback for how Fedora Marketing could improve or do better for this release and beyond, please consider adding in a few words or snippets to this page. It will be extremely helpful for planning out what we do this next release and helping improve the experience for new contributors. Thanks all! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

For the Fedora Magazine, the best place to discuss it is on the Marketing mailing list, which I am including in this response. The Community Operations team handles the Community Blog (which is also a WordPress site). I think discussion about the API came up before, but I don't remember what came of it or where it went. The best points of contact about this would probably be Patrick Uiterwijk (puiterwijk on freenode IRC) or Paul Frields (stickster on freenode IRC). I know Paul is at Summit this week, so you might not hear from him this week, but you can probably find Patrick on IRC, and he could tell you more about whether this is feasible or not. Hope this helps! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

First contatiners article for the magazine (systemd-nswan)
by Ryan Lerch 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

We had scheduled to get the first containers series article out yesterday, and just wondering if this one is right to go or not? I did a quick (non-technical) pass over it, and it looked pretty solid to me. I dont really know anything about systemd-nspwan, so couldnt really check the technical details :) cheers, ryanlerch
