[fedora-websites] Issue #928: Workstation download page advertises incorrect media size
by Michael Catanzaro 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

catanzaro reported a new issue against the project: `fedora-websites` that you are following: `` Our download page: https://getfedora.org/en/workstation/download/ says the F29 live image is 1.8 GB, but this is not true. It's actually 1,931,476,992 bytes, which rounds down to 1.9 GB. That happens to be 1.799 GiB, so 1.8 GiB would be reasonable, but the download page says GB, not GiB. My guess is it's improperly doing its computation in GiB, and nobody noticed before now because the live image was previously not large enough for the difference between GB and GiB to actually matter. We should consider rounding up, anyway, and reporting 2.0 GB, because a 1.9 GB USB drive would not be large enough to hold the 1.93 GB image. This will become a practical problem very soon because soon we'll be reporting that the download image is 2.0 GB large, and users will be trying to flash it to 2.0 GB USB drives, and they will be disappointed when it doesn't work.

No I'm less concerned about that although I'd put it on the about page and not as a new footer link. ~m On March 22, 2019 1:08:53 PM EDT, Brian Proffitt <bproffit(a)redhat.com> wrote: >Does this include the addition of a governance link in the site footer? > >BKP > >On Fri, Mar 22, 2019 at 9:36 AM Máirín Duffy <duffy(a)fedoraproject.org> >wrote: > >> Hi Brian, >> >> So the alt downloads in the sidebar I thought you were talking about >is >> different than spins.fpo and alt.fpo.

Hi Brian, So the alt downloads in the sidebar I thought you were talking about is different than spins.fpo and alt.fpo. The ones I thought you were talking about were, for example, the links to netinstall isos and local media vendors. Spins.fpo and alt.fpo are very intentionally on different websites. The getfedora.orgpage is targeted at mainstream first time Fedora users, users we wouldnt want using a specific spin as part of their first experience bc they are less polished and not as supported as the editions that are featured prominently on getfedora. So I guess my point is that these are not surface level website tweaks. The suggested tweaks belie a drastic change in strategy I am not comfortable with, esp without a lot more data and context. ~m On March 21, 2019 6:12:47 PM EDT, Brian Proffitt <bproffit(a)redhat.com> wrote: >This is certainly not critical, but I beleieve the thread of the >conversation I had with Bex that making the spins and alt architectures >easier to find might reduce the friction point a bit for people seeking >to >try out Fedora. > >However, I think your suggested solution is a very good idea.

Suggestions for Website
by Brian Proffitt 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

Hi, Periodically, the Red Hat Open Source and Standards team looks at open source projects with which we are affiliated to see if there are community elements that can be improved. Fedora's review late last year went very well, and after some discussions with Brian Exelbierd, there were a couple of suggestions we wanted to make to your team to highlight key areas of Fedora. Specifically: * Highlight the Alternate Downloads links. Currently on your Downloads pages, the Get more Fedora links are located on the lower-right corner of the page. Moving this section up the sidebar would emphasize the availability of these alternative versions of Fedora. * Highlight the Project's governance content. The governance model for Fedora does exist[1], but it is not easy to find. Could a link be added to the About section in the site's footer? Those were the only two things we had to suggest. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks, Brian [1] https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/council/
