x3mboy reported a new issue against the project: `fedora-websites` that you are following: `` ### Phenomenon The Fedora Podcast is part of a Marketing team strategy to reach more people. Right now is being pushed through the Fedora Magazine, but it's also being stored in [x3mboy fp.o](https://x3mboy.fedorapeople.org/podcast). This site is using the docs' theme/template, but we like to give it a more proper presentation for a podcast website.
### Reason Other podcast have relevant and better designed websites that gain attraction from people.
### Recommendation I don't have any specific recpmmendation but some examples (ordered from great designs to poor designs): https://www.redhat.com/en/command-line-heroes https://practicalbass.com/podcast/ https://fullcirclemagazine.org/category/podcast/ https://avpodcast.net/podcastlinux/ http://www.kernelpodcast.org/ https://twit.tv/shows/floss-weekly http://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/show/linuxactionshow/ ``

jibecfed added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` I suggested x3mboy to see with @bex if podcast could get closer to documentation so it makes localization easier: https://pagure.io/g11n/issue/56
I don't have sufficient technical skills to argue for or against a "dynamic website and a DB". I'll be happy to help the translation of this anyway. ``

- The Podcast itself - The localized transcripts

x3mboy added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` For this site I need:
Header: The header should have the subscriptions to the feeds: Simplecast, iTunes, Spotify and Google Play. News feed: Being able to publish every new episode with a little description here I will embed the Soundcloud Player of each episode. Storage: I need storage to provide people an alternative way to download the episodes (ATM I'm storaging the files on my fedorapeople.org) ``

bex added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` What about this idea?
Move the podcasts site to docs.fedoraproject.org. This would give you a repo for the pages and a second repository for the audio files. There are two repositories so that clones of the pages don't take forever :) While git is suboptimal for audio files, it is a small number of them and it is easier than building a second system.
We could then publish everything to docs.fedoraproject.org and it will go out to the CDN.
This is minimally invasive for infra and should be easy to setup (@asamalik ???)
The two potential challenges I see are:
1) URL - we could probably get you an alias/redirect via infra
2) RSS - I don't know the easiest way to produce an RSS feed, however there may be a standalone way to do this. I am willing to help out some here.
WDYT? ``

x3mboy added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` I think that can work.
For the RSS, I'm not sure about what are you thinking, I have a Podcast RSS provider (SimpleCast), I was talking about a way to include a little part about every new released episode, but I can do that by editing the .adoc and including the new episode in the top. For the audio files storage, I'm not sure if git is the best option here, not because of the number of file but for the size of them.
Also, I need to figure it out how to include embedded js in an .adoc file, to include the SoundCloud player of each episode.
Managing like the docs' site will be really close of what I'm doing today (creating an static HTML in my fedorapeople) so this way I'm not altering the way I'm working today. I requested a mockup to design#584, I think the biggest challenge here will be how to apply a template to the docs' system. ``

bex added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` If you already have RSS that is cool. Embedding the js shouldn't be hard, but I'd need to figure it out.
The template could be the biggest challenge. @asamalik would need to weigh in on this one. ``

asamalik added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` So I thought about it for a day and I feel like the podcast is one of the "products" or "artifacts" of the Fedora community, in a similar way as the Linux distribution we produce, or the Fedora Magazine articles etc.
I think the documentation site is meant to describe how to use the things we produce, or how to help make them. But it shouldn't store them. So I don't think the Docs site is a fit for the podcast.
So I propose we either build a separate site such as "podcast.fedoraproject.org". It feels better even from a marketing perspective. And if there is (will be?) a working group producing the podcast, or if it's a part of Marketing — I'm happy to host the group info and docs about how to produce the podcast on the Docs.
Makes sense? ``

bex added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Sounds like this should be a part of the Fedora-websites repo then. Looks like we need the design finished and coded. Infra will need to hookup the domain to sync from here. I still think the actual data should be in a separate repo to not slow down clones of this one. Infra should be able to enable that. ``

Thanks for helping with that.

Yes, for a wordpress instance you need to talk to infra, they will setup probably an openshift instance for you similar to the magazine. We can't do much here from a websites team side. ``
