Replacing email list for users with a web forum software called
Discourse, what's your opinion?
by stan
Hi,
There's a big mail thread on fedora-devel about using a web forum
software called Discourse instead of mailing lists. The idea is that
it would invigorate the Fedora community by encouraging younger people
raised on social media and mobile platforms to contribute. One of the
targets they have mentioned is the user list, because of its nature of
short term question and answer topics. There has been push-back by
developers because they have their custom solutions all working great
around email lists for doing their work.
I'm wondering how the people who regularly use fedora-users mailing
list feel about that. Which would you prefer? Unfortunately, it's an
either / or proposal, because there is no interface in Discourse for
emails from an email list to be put in their forums, though they do
have email notification for new web messages. Would you willingly or
reluctantly migrate to the new platform?
Here are a few links from that thread.

In order to access discourse, because fedora is using the hosting
provided by discourse, you will have to grant js access to

Error upgrading to fedora 29
by s.hernandez.a＠gmail.com
Hello friends;
I've tried to upgrade from Fedora 28 to Fedora 29 using both methods:
Gnome software and DNF, but the process fail with the following
message:
error running transaction: file / from install of filesystem-3.9-
2.fc29.x86_64 conflicts with file from stacer-1.0.9-0.amd64
Please, can someone tell me what that it means and how to solve it?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers!
