14:05:01 <jjmcd_> Alpha notes due Friday
14:05:10 <jjmcd_> Typically, we recruit a newer contributor to do the Alpha release notes
14:05:18 <jjmcd_> But they are due Friday, and we neglected to recruit a victim last week (my bad)
14:05:21 <zoglesby> jjmcd_: have they started?
14:05:32 <jjmcd_> So, I did a quick draft, but we really should get someone to carry them through
14:05:47 <jjmcd_> Also, perhaps have a marketing person review
14:05:56 <jjmcd_> Announcement due next Monday, too
14:06:50 <zoglesby> #link http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_17_Alpha_release_notes
14:07:56 <bcotton> anyone in the room want to volunteer to run with the alpha release notes?
14:08:27 <claneys> Why not but never do that
14:08:36 <jjmcd_> The grunt work is done, now it's just clean up the prose, sync with marketing and the FPL, check what isn't going to make it
14:08:38 <claneys> +I
14:09:00 <zoglesby> I will give claneys any help he needs
14:09:15 <claneys> ok, I gonna try so
14:09:27 <jjmcd_> Great, thanks claneys
14:09:42 <claneys> I'll do my best
14:10:03 <claneys> deadline is for this Friday, isn'it ?
14:10:10 <bcotton> #action claneys to finish the Alpha Release Notes
14:10:19 <jjmcd_> correct - of course, Thursday it could slip
14:11:20 <claneys> ok, ok. I'm gonna ask many help soon :)
14:11:36 <zoglesby> claneys: if you need help just let me know
14:12:11 <claneys> yep, We'll see on irc
14:12:23 <claneys> ty
14:12:59 <bcotton> anything else on Release Notes?
14:13:11 <jjmcd_> We also have the announcement
14:13:41 <jjmcd_> That is actually a marketing thing, but we generally provide assistance
14:14:13 <bcotton> any volunteers for the announcment? if not, i had a lot of fun writing the F16 announcment, so i can take it.
14:14:45 <jjmcd_> I think there's plenty of grist in "Beefy Miracle" for that mill
14:15:48 <bcotton> puns will abound
14:17:10 <bcotton> okay, i don't see any takers, so...
14:17:26 <bcotton> #action bcotton to write alpha announcment
14:17:34 <bcotton> does that cover us for this week, jjmcd_ ?
14:17:47 <jjmcd_> Well, we still need to answer Robyn's request
14:18:01 <bcotton> yes, i figured we'd make that a separate topic
14:18:04 <jjmcd_> Not strictly RNs
14:18:07 <jjmcd_> cool
14:18:19 <jjmcd_> No agenda so I couldn't tell ;-)
14:18:39 <bcotton> heh, organization is for proprietary OSes
14:18:50 <zoglesby> +1
14:19:00 <jjmcd_> Yeah, not a lot of that going around here
14:19:08 <bcotton> anything else on this topic?
14:19:51 <zoglesby> jjmcd_: when is the first copy of the tech notes come out?
14:20:00 <jjmcd_> Just after alpha
14:20:14 <zoglesby> okay
14:20:14 <jjmcd_> I need the alpha repo to produce it
14:21:10 * jjmcd_ should clean that up and package it
14:21:20 <jjmcd_> the process, I mean
14:21:21 <bcotton> #topic Docs representative for Release Readiness meeting
14:21:43 <bcotton> #info rbergeron wants someone to represent Docs at the meeting on 3pm EST on Feb 23
14:22:44 * jjmcd_ might have to go to Lansing that day so can't be counted on
14:22:58 * bcotton can do it
14:23:02 * zoglesby is doing time math
14:23:20 <zoglesby> bcotton: your the boss...just saying :P
14:23:33 * pkovar is late
14:23:52 <bcotton> zoglesby: it's true. i just wanted to give other people the opportunity
14:24:20 <bcotton> #action bcotton to attend Release Readiness meeting
14:24:57 <bcotton> #topic Guide Status
14:25:04 <bcotton> #link http://rbergero.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-17/f-17-docs-tree-tasks.html
14:26:55 <bcotton> looks like next week is when we should really start talking about guides, so if you have things to say, start thinking of them
14:28:30 <bcotton> #topic Open floor discussion
14:30:24 <bcotton> anyone have stuff to talk about?
14:30:44 <jjmcd_> Are we going to do anything special about ARM?
14:30:50 <zoglesby> bcotton: if you can't make the Readiness meeting let me know I I will stay up
14:31:01 <jjmcd_> I realized I never saw it in the feature list
14:31:16 <bcotton> zoglesby: will do
14:31:44 <bcotton> jjmcd_: it would be nice
14:32:10 <jjmcd_> I thought it USED to be on the list, maybe they aren't going to make it
14:32:54 <zoglesby> question for rbergeron?
14:33:05 <jjmcd_> or ctyler
14:33:59 <jjmcd_> just pinged him
14:34:28 <jjmcd_> I know ther are scrambling, but I haven't followed the channel real close
14:35:09 <jjmcd_> There's a guy that might know
14:35:38 <jjmcd_> jsmith,  is ARM going to make it as a primary arch?
14:36:29 <jsmith> jjmcd_: Certainly not for F17
14:36:47 <jjmcd_> OK, I thought that was the target but I noticed it wasn't in the feature list
14:36:56 <jsmith> jjmcd_: *Perhaps* for F18, but I haven't seen a ticket opened for FESCo yet.
14:37:03 * jsmith waves to everyone from Terminal E in Paris
14:37:40 <jjmcd_> I feel your pain
14:38:15 <jsmith> I need my pain!
14:38:28 <bcotton> jsmith: pain au chocolat?
14:38:28 * jsmith gives up with the Star Trek movie quotes, and stops interrupting the meeting
14:43:45 <bcotton> okay, anything else?
14:44:01 <bcotton> going
14:44:04 <bcotton> going
