Apologies
by Matt Harwood 09 Jun '16

09 Jun '16

Hi all, Just letting you know I'm afraid I won't be able to make tonight's meeting. I'll be more available over the next couple of days to gather more speed with the OpenShift article and will post to the list over the weekend with a draft for comment. Sorry for the slow progress on it, personal pressures have been using up a lot of my time. Hope to speak to you all soon!

[Magazine] Schedule for GA release week
by Paul W. Frields 09 Jun '16

09 Jun '16

Hi Marketing/Magazine folks, I wanted to start ball rolling for Magazine schedule around the GA. As I understand it, we would be publishing the following articles on GA day: * Official release announcement This has yet to be written I think. Am I correct that Remy has the task of putting it together? * What's new in F24 Workstation I'm working on this today and will have it ready to go shortly. * What's new in F24 Server * What's new in F24 Cloud Am I correct that these articles were desirable? If so, is someone committed to write each one? There's also at least one potential follow-up article to be pushed at some point *after* GA day: * Upgrading from F23 -> F24 Workstation I saw Justin already has a draft of this article, and it's waiting on two things: (1) word that FESCo is OK with us promoting this; and (2) confirmation of when the capability is expected to be pushed in F23 updates. Anything missing from this list currently? -- Paul W.

Review Requested: Updated Python Brochure
by Brian Proffitt 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

As per ticket #219[1], I have updated the Fedora Python brochure to include more current information. The updates are almost all around content, I left the design elements pretty much alone. I would like the group to examine the content and let me know if anything is wrong or missing. If I could get feedback to me by 1200 EDT (1600 UTC) Wednesday, March 30 (to allow for the upcoming US and EU holidays), that would be great. The pdfs are attached; my apologies for not attaching these files to the ticket itself; there was a file size limit. Please let me know if posting them somewhere else will be helpful. Peace, Brian [1] https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/219 -- Brian Proffitt Principal Community Analyst Open Source and Standards @TheTechScribe 574.383.9BKP

New Contributor Eduard Lucena
by Eduard Lucena 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

Hi team, I'm Eduard Lucena, Linux user since 2009, Fedora User since 2012. I want to contribute writing some articles to Fedora Magazine, i work in the telecommucation industry and my firsts articles will be related to ssh clients, network management and network protocols, but not limited to that. I'm recently joined to Fedora Ambassadors Latam and i'm pointing to increase the use of Linux Workstations based on security and on the mayority of Linux system usage in telecemmunications equipments (in my own experience, 90% of network elements are running some kind of Unix, and the big majority of those are linux). My wiki page is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:X3mboy I hope to write my first article draft this weekend for review and editing from the team. Best regards, -- Eduard Lucena Móvil: +56962318010 GNU/Linux User #589060 Fedora Ambassador Latam

Release Validation Testing article
by Ryan Lerch 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

HI all, I have finished editing the release validation testing article. I edited it down a fair bit to try to provide a better hook for users that might want to get involved with Fedora by helping out with relvar testing. If anyone else could also throw a quick eye over it from this perspective, that would be useful. otherwise, if the original author is happy with the edits, this should be ready to go out! also added a featured image! cheers, ryanlerch

I feel like it might be a good thing to have in place long-term if there were two to three caretakers set up to manage these. We could create a ticket and put some ideas to a vote if that would help move this forward in terms of deciding on a policy. > > > Brian Proffitt > 574-383-9BKP > Twitter: TheTechScribe > Skype: LinuxScribe > www.proffitt.org <http://www.proffitt.org> > > > On Wed, Jun 1, 2016 at 3:19 PM, Justin W.

[Magazine] "Getting started with Fedora QA" series
by Justin W. Flory 08 Jun '16

08 Jun '16

Hey Sumantro, In last night's Magazine meeting, we reviewed all of the pitches for the Fedora QA series you've been working on. After discussing it for a bit, we thought this would actually be a better fit for the Fedora Community Blog, where all contributor-specific news, guides, and information is published. https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/ The Community Blog is managed by the CommOps team. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/CommOps https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/commops%40lists.fedoraproject.o… I went ahead and ported your articles from the Magazine to the Community Blog. They are both WordPress sites, so using the Community Blog will be the exact same. You also will just have to log in with your FAS to create an account there. Let me know once you have created an account and I will assign authorship rights back to you (at the moment, they list me as the author). Your first article in the series should be published this coming week. :) Thanks for contributing this series again! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com
