Minor edits needed in an article (PostgreSQL 9.5)
by Honza Horak 14 Sep '16

14 Sep '16

hey, there are some minor things to fix in the article [1], I'd like to kindly ask any editor to fix those.. First is reported as a comment: "link wiki (/https//fedoraproject.org/wiki/PostgreSQL) is incorrect" But there are two other typos: $ sudo dnf install docker # systemctl start docker should be $ sudo dnf install docker $ sudo systemctl start docker and similarly: $ sudo mkdir data # chown 26:26 data $ sudo chcon -t svirt_sandbox_file_t data should be: $ sudo mkdir data $ sudo chown 26:26 data $ sudo chcon -t svirt_sandbox_file_t data Sorry for not catching it before.

Pitch: Articles about MariaDB (News, Basics, Galera repl.)
by Honza Horak 12 Sep '16

12 Sep '16

Hey, similar to PostgreSQL articles (that now wait for review) I'd like to write articles about MariaDB (and mention MySQL as well). Since writing everything to one article would be too long, I'm thinking about writing three articles instead: Quick-start with MariaDB and MySQL in Fedora 24 * basic introduction and practical example how to install and run MariaDB, creating a user and a database, and how to do the same in container News in MariaDB 10.1 in Fedora 24 and how to upgrade * upgrading steps and new features in latest version Tutorial for Multi-master Replication in MariaDB 10.1 * practical example how to run MariaDB in multi-master deployment and some general info about this kind of replication Does it sound like a good idea?

Request access to be able to draft posts for Fedora Magazine
by pamfeuer S 12 Sep '16

12 Sep '16

Hi, I'm Pamir(pam). Im from Mumbai(India). I am an open source evangelist and love using linux and the tools that come with it. I have used inkscape, gimp and blender in a corporate environment. I had used fedora core 2/3/4 a long time ago and switched over to mandrake linux...the story goes on from there. I'm back to using fedora since 23. Gnome shell has become very stable, responsive, tear free(under X and gallium). I use only AMD stuff...because I'm a technology partner and love radeons. I'm a professional gimp and inkscape user and beginner blender user(although I have been using blender for 2 years). I am currently learning maya.. I had developed full websites in the past using only gimp, inkscape and nano...my current choice of editor is atom at the moment. I would love to write articles on how to use fedora and the tools it offers in corporate environments and professional multimedia. I RHCE 5.0 certified and worked in the past as a system and network administrator. I am currently learning python and know bash(intermediate). I use Darktable, gimp, rawtherapee for photography. I would love to write articles on professional photography using open source tools.

Fedora 25
by Benson Muite 11 Sep '16

Hi, If any of you use Fedora Atomic as a desktop, could you add a brief overview of why and how (workflow) you do so here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_25_talking_points For the typical Fedora workstation user, what is needed to migrate to Fedora Atomic as a desktop? Does this make it easier to use remote cloud resources? Finally please also indicate any hosting providers for which atomic is a one click install - this seems to be of interest for some users: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/what-about-atomic-fedora-c… Regards, Benson

by Justin W. Flory 10 Sep '16

10 Sep '16

Hello all, This email is being sent on behalf of the Marketing team in regards to the upcoming Fedora 25 release. We're in the process of generating talking points… https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_25_talking_points …about what all is new in the different editions and spins of Fedora. As members of the Xfce SIG, we would like to know what all is new and coming up in the latest versions of Xfce for F25. A few bullet points about anything that's new is all that's needed. This can be added directly to the wiki page or you can reply to this email with the information, and we'll add them to the wiki. If you have info or knowledge about what's new in Xfce, please let us know in time for the Alpha release announcement - if emailing, please reply to the Marketing list or email me directly. Thanks all! -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

[Infra Request] Twitter access
by Brian Proffitt 08 Sep '16

08 Sep '16

All: Thanks to Patrick's diligence, we have all of the social media accounts' passwords gathered together and placed into safe keeping. Unfortunately, I have found a problem... in the past, with the Fedora Twitter account (@fedora) managed with HootSuite, I was able to generate monthly analytics reports for the channel. Now, with @fedora access only granted with TweetDeck, I am not able to do this. TweetDeck has no analytics tools and using the native Twitter analytics is not possible with direct access to the @fedora login information. So, with hat in hand, I would like to ask for access to the @fedora account for HootSuite. I would lock the channel up so that only I would have access to the channel. To further secure it, I could ask Patrick to log into my HootSuite account and connect the @fedora channel himself to my account, so I would never actually see the password information. Sorry to flip on this, but I was not aware Tweetdeck no longer had analytic tools. Feedback welcome! BKP Brian Proffitt 574-383-9BKP Twitter: @TheTechScribe
