I have tried several times to sign and submit the CLA via your web

You could not be added to the 'cla_fedora' group.
Any clues? I typed in my name and "I agree" as asked in the form.
Thanks for your help,

Omniture & Fedora
by Max Spevack
Fedora Webmasters:
A while back (maybe back when we were still split between
fedora.redhat.com and fedoraproject.org), we had some code on a few of
our pages that allowed basic web statistics to be sucked into Red Hat's
larger web traffic analysis program -- the stuff that tracks visits for
redhat.com, jboss.com, etc.
Red Hat uses something called Omniture for this.
http://www.omniture.com/
In Fedora, we use awstats to track lots of things about people who visit
*.fedoraproject.org, and I personally find those stats to be very
interesting and revealing.
The folks who manage Red Hat's Omniture stuff would like to add in a
little bit of tracking into Fedora's websites.
My understanding is that this would involve the addition of some
Javascript on *selected* pages (perhaps index.html, get-fedora.html,
join.html, release notes, whatever. We can discuss that).
The purpose of adding this in would be to allow Red Hat's larger web
analysis group to see how Fedora traffic compares to and maps to other
Red Hat traffic. This would be valuable to them, and I would ask the
Fedora Websites team to allow Jesse Eversole (Red Hat engineer who I
have copied on this message) to share more details with you and then
consider the proposal.
Thank you for your time.

Hi Jess,
For something like this, you would want to work with the Websites group.
I'm going to Cc: the fedora-websites-list so someone there can get in
touch with you. Obviously there's a huge crossover audience between
Fedora and DevFu/RHM/TH, and the actual mechanics of making the banner
work, I recall, are pretty trivial.

CLA on Wiki
by Paul W. Frields
Assume that we have been given the blessing to use a one-click agreement
to the CLA. No GPG required, no cumbersome signing process. Fill in
your personal info and click to indicate you've read and agree to the
CLA, and create a Fedora account.
Now consider our wiki Edit screen. Assume that Legal really wants us to
have CLA agreement for anyone editing the wiki. We want that process to
be as low-drag as possible. So imagine this:
If the user hits Submit, and is not logged in, request the login, along
with a "Create an Account (30 seconds)" link.
The link either goes to a new page, or pops up a little JavaScripty,
Web2.0-y box that collects the minimum info needed for FAS2. A link is
included to the CLA and an agreement button. The agreement and link
appear *above* the button:
"I have read and agree to the terms of the
[Fedora Contributor License Agreement].
[I agree]"
Upon creation of the account, the user is returned to their edit without
losing his work, and can then submit it:
"By pressing 'Submit', you agree to the
terms of the [WikiLicense].
[Submit] [Cancel]"
Seeing as how basically everyone does it -- how hard is this in Moin?
In MediaWiki?

start.fedoraproject.org search results
by Andy Gospodarek
Is fedora getting paid by google for any advertisements they click after
searching from start.fedoraproject.org? If not, I'm willing to look
into getting that setup.

Problem_with_Fedora_setup_please_help!
by HvG
Dear Sir,
excuse me for bothering you, but I haven't found another E-Mail address
for help me.
I've downloaded the BitTorrent file for Fedora install DVD from this URL:
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora
followed by downloading of install ISO files. After that I've made setup
DVD using Nero. The boot from the DVD is OK and the setup program starts
normally. After few installation step (choosing language: English,
keyboard: hu101) the setup program aborted with this error message:
The Fedora disc was not found in any of your CDROM drives. Please insert
the Fedora disc and press OK to retry.
and the DVD-reader ejects the disc.
It is peculiar because in my opinion the disc is OK (after the writing
Nero has verified the result) - and I've made another copy of disc and
with this second disc the result is same.
The parameters of computer:
CPU: Intel Celeron 2.40 GHz
RAM: 256 MB
VGA: Intel 82845G, integrated
DVD: _NEC DVD_RW ND-4571A
HDD: HDS722580VLAT20 (approx. 80 GB)
Please help me and say what was wrong!
Thank you for your help!
Yours sincerely,
Gabor Horvath
