Fedora Branding

[Rahul Sundaram]

Hi

Some Fedora stuff

http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=27697
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=27700
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=27660

Anyone else working on similar things?

The docs got a new CSS look from Paul Frields which adds to a consistent 
look and feel

To catalyze works on similar things a "Fedora Art" project would be 
useful (I had in my mind a proposal for something like this for quite a 
while). It can be modeled after http://art.gnome.org and IMO the best 
URL for it is http://art.fedoraproject.org

More to the point, that is a perfect example that supports your Fedora
Art project idea.  Having that art piece to build upon has enabled a lot
of other art projects to get started, just like source code!

Source art.  Art source.  Something saucy like that.

+1 to that idea, then.

We even get bug reports such as these 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=147093

Would appreciate if someone can throw in a patch there

Ok, what software can be used to manage art.fedoraproject.org ?

One that allows user logins via the web, user upload, and nicely
cataloguing it. It must not be a PHP solution, and Python-based
solutions are favoured

I'm sure we can make this happen, provided the above requirements are
met

Diana Fong and I discussed this briefly. She was going to talk to some
of the art.gnome.org to see what they have.

art.gnome.org is a custom designed solution made by its own people.

Some alternative solutions are http://coppermine.sourceforge.net and 
http://gallery.sourceforge.net but I find those much less friendly and 
less suitable for our use compared with art.gnome.org

know of anything out there thats not php based?  I'm pretty sure a php
based solution isn't going to be acceptable to the current admin of
the fedoraproject hardware whose initials are seth vidal.

I've never used it but there's:
http://pygallery.sourceforge.net/

Or we could do something like create a Flickr account and publish the
rss feed to fp.org.

For such a gallery to be really useful it should have some features like 
user submissions, ratings, comments, sort and search, otherwise  for a 
static one we can just use the Wiki.
And I'm afraid is hard to find something like this which is not made 
with php.

The extreme solution would be to create a new gallery software (no, I 
don't volunteer for that) in whatever language is desired, this is not 
easy but has the advantage that it can act as a web interface for the 
proposed Background Channels 
(http://www.gnome.org/~clarkbw/blog/GNOME/background_channels)

I think might meet what I understand as seth's minimum requirements as
a technology to look at for fedoraproject.org inclusion.   The other
question is of course is this actually useful enough  as a solution.

This is purely a marketeer-type response I am making, it ignores
development practices and security.

It's too bad that we can't take advantage of the wealth of PHP solutions
available to us.  For example, lots seems to be happening with
MediaWiki ... the DocBook Wiki stuff is pretty full-featured ...

Ok, I'm done.  You can return to your regularly scheduled sanity.

The php solutions take advantage of you, too.

As much fun as it is to have a box rooted and spend a couple of days
reinstalling and fixing it, I think I'll take as many steps as I can to
prevent it.

bluntly: php apps and the php language/libs are FREQUENTLY insecure.
