http://fedoraproject.org/verify on the get-fedora pages. I wonder where that should
go...
22:10 < ricky> Hopefully, we can make it fit in with the friendliness of the page,
if you know what I mean
Before we add another link to the page, can we get a bit more of the
context on how users are expected to interact with these sums? How often
do users typically use these? Is there any way to automate this
verification process? Isn't there an option to verify your media when
you go through anaconda? Is there a way we could provide only the
relevant sum after the user has downloaded an ISO? (for example, the
user clicks on the "Download Now!" link for the desktop live media, and
they get a direct link to the iso and in the background the page reloads
to a page with the sum for the desktop live media iso and instructions
on how to use it?)
Are these sums something we only expect more advanced users to care about?

22:11 < ricky> Also, at least one person mentioned that they had to search for a
second to find the "show me all options" link. Not sure if they were just too
used to the old layout or if there's something we should change
This should take a second to find, as it's not meant to be front and center.
22:13 < ianweller> probably both good ideas.
22:13 < giarc> for verify, can we just put the link to it at the top, like this
page:
22:13 < giarc>
http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-all
22:14 < ianweller> the /verify link could go in the sidebar. "Verify your
ISOs!"
22:14 < ricky> I was thinking that it could go under resources
22:14 < giarc> ooh, i like that
Where is resources?
22:52 < ricky> The two security-related pages we have are
http://fedoraproject.org/verify and
http://fedoraproject.org/keys
22:52 < rsc> drago01: and thinking of proprietary software, which users will
*definately* install (Nvidia, ATI, Flash, acroread), there are other nice problems.
22:52 < drago01> I am using 64 bit on my servers, desktop and laptop no issues that
are arch specific .. the memory/diskspace is the only valid one but newer hw have enough
to deal with that
22:52 < ricky> We're already planning to linnk /verify on the get-fedora pages
22:52 < ricky> Do you think most users need info from /keys?
22:52 < rsc> ricky: AFAIK the claims were related to the security team itself or to
the updates with security infos
22:53 < rsc> ricky: let me maybe re-verify until the next meeting.
