19:12:56 <croberts> we will give it another few mins then we will talk about the magazine
19:13:56 <Mitzie> hey mailga
19:14:11 <croberts> Welcome Mailga
19:14:56 <Mailga> hi guys, I'm driving
19:15:13 <croberts> ok no worries be safe
19:15:16 <Mitzie> ;)
19:15:47 <Mailga> thx, I can only read
19:16:04 <croberts> ok cool :)
19:16:07 <Mitzie> It is croberts you and me for now
19:16:13 <Mitzie> So we will wait a bit longer
19:16:45 <Mailga> ok.
19:18:54 <Mailga> maube a reminder in the mktg list?
19:19:09 <Mailga> maybe*
19:19:29 <croberts> Mailga
19:19:53 <Mitzie> It is known that we have weekly meetings in this time.. Probably we should I guess
19:19:58 <croberts> I think part of attedance is in America its a National holiday, so many people are relaxing and enjoy cookouts etc
19:20:20 <croberts> mitzie did you want to send out an email
19:20:38 <Mitzie> about what Chris?
19:20:54 <Mailga> ambassadors always do
19:21:00 <Mitzie> a reminder?
19:21:41 <croberts> i think since the meeting is already going on, we should just continue it. I do think we should send out reminders the night before for meetings
19:22:07 <Mitzie> Reminders would be a good idea I guess..
19:22:16 <Mitzie> Ok so we should start
19:22:22 <croberts> sounds good :)
19:22:31 <croberts> #topic Fedora Magazine
19:22:56 <croberts> I wanted to say the magazine is looking amazing from when it first started and work has come a long way on it.
19:23:13 <Mailga> croberts, +1
19:23:37 <croberts> Mitzie has made a cool calendar widget and events are starting to fill in.
19:23:37 <Mitzie> Definitely, 2 weeks ago it was not so good :)
19:23:47 <croberts> +100 Mitzie
19:23:58 <Mitzie> Thanks croberts!
19:24:19 <croberts> Mitzie: Have you heard anything back from the calendar pulling from Fedocal?
19:24:24 <Mailga> +1
19:25:22 <Mitzie> No.. Although I have not opened that ticket so the calendar to be divided in sections (eg fads, fudcons)
19:25:27 <Mailga> i said in ml my idea about contributors.
19:26:08 <Mitzie> yes mailga
19:26:31 <croberts> Mailga: I saw your email and agree, we definitaly need some more contributors.
19:27:22 <Mailga> any idea about recruitment?
19:27:39 <croberts> I know for the 10 year anniversary JZB was planning something nice for the magazine.
19:28:06 <Mitzie> yes, probably a post will be written
19:28:07 <croberts> Could we send out an email to the announce list? or maybe we could get websites to add a section on the front page
19:28:40 <Mitzie> and something about some interviews, but suehle should inform us a bit more about that
19:28:55 <Mitzie> I thought that croberts
19:29:04 <croberts> me and mitzie created the magazine wiki page together :) so everything someone needs to know about joining is there
19:29:05 <Mailga> robyduck, did you have something to say  about that?
19:29:09 <croberts> +100 mitzie
19:29:28 <Mitzie> Yes, that was a big step. Great work croberts as well!
19:29:30 <croberts> I have also redirected the News tab on the wiki sidebar to point to the magazine wiki page
19:29:36 <croberts> thank you mitzie :)
19:29:52 <Mitzie> At least now it is mentioned in the wiki
19:29:57 <croberts> is robyduck with us?
19:30:08 <Mailga> good work guys
19:30:12 <Mitzie> ping robyduck
19:30:28 <robyduck> pong
19:30:29 <Mailga> croberts, yes I saw him loggin
19:30:41 <Mitzie> :)
19:30:52 <robyduck> just arrived in this moment, didn't follow you, sorry
19:30:58 <Mitzie> robyduck what is your fas
19:31:08 <robyduck> robyduck?
19:31:10 <robyduck> :)
19:31:21 <robyduck> .fas robyduck
19:31:21 <zodbot> robyduck: robyduck 'Robert Mayr' <robyduck@gmail.com>
19:31:33 <Mailga> please gon on with robyduck I'll talk with him later.
19:31:41 <croberts> robyduck: would it be possible to get a post on the frontpage about the magazine pointing to the magazine wiki page?
19:31:59 <robyduck> fp.o mainpage?
19:32:09 <croberts> sorry the join.fp.o page
19:32:21 <Mitzie> cause the truth is that we need contributors to work on the magazine
19:32:44 <robyduck> are you thinking about a group for that Mitzie ?
19:32:53 <Mitzie> a group in fas
19:32:54 <Mitzie> ?
19:33:19 <Mailga> +1 robyduck
19:33:28 <robyduck> yes
19:33:32 <Mitzie> Actually if suehle was online we could resolve that
19:33:41 <Mitzie> yes, we discussed that with croberts
19:34:02 <Mitzie> there is a fedora magazine contributors group in fas, but it is inactive
19:34:02 <robyduck> ok, for the join.fp.o sure we can, but where?
19:34:14 <robyduck> I don't think putting it on the bottom it's the right way
19:34:29 <robyduck> ok, why not pick up this one?
19:34:54 <Mitzie> that is a nice question..
19:35:14 <Mitzie> Maybe under latest announcements title
19:35:26 <robyduck> I mean, for a sort of fedoramagazine admins or so, obviously everyone can contribute with articles or news, but not all of them should be able to publish the contents like the planet
19:35:32 * robyduck looks
19:35:50 <Mitzie> and probably we should also write an email to the announce list. Would that be appropriate ?
19:36:25 <robyduck> hah, we still have the 2011 events there ^^
19:36:51 <robyduck> we can drop them for now IMHO
19:36:58 <robyduck> and replace them with iCal when it will be ready for production
19:37:23 <robyduck> Mitzie: yes, announce list sounds good
19:37:33 <Mitzie> ok I will put it as an action
19:37:38 <croberts> +1 mitzie that is a good idea
19:38:08 <Mitzie> croberts would you like to do that together? I would like some help :)
19:38:18 <Mailga> +1
19:38:43 <croberts> Yes Mitzie I can help you :)
19:39:11 <Mitzie> #action mitxie croberts write an email to the announce list to attract more contributors
19:39:27 <Mailga> robyduck, I know you're kiddin me, I'm driving.
19:39:41 <Mitzie> #action mitzie croberts write an email to the announce list to attract more contributors
19:40:01 <robyduck> croberts: do you want to work on the join.fpo page as your first easyfix patch for the websites team?
19:40:22 <croberts> robyduck: Yes I would like that :)
19:40:30 <croberts> I need to apply to the FAS group as well
19:40:36 <robyduck> Mitzie (we are covering him with work...)
19:40:43 <Mailga> Mitzie, croberts and about a new group?
19:40:54 <Mitzie> sure!
19:41:04 <croberts> :)
19:42:30 <croberts> robyduck: did you want to create a ticket and assign it to me, or did you want me to make a trac ticket
19:43:15 <robyduck> croberts: as you want, the same for me
19:43:18 <croberts> on the wiki main page, what do you think of adding the magazine project to the main page? under projects
19:44:24 <croberts> not on the sidebar, but on the bottom of the page
19:44:32 <robyduck> If you want my opinion, we should do step by step with fedoramag, put it on the wiki page only when all is ready and people can join and publish their stuff easily
19:45:22 <Mitzie> I think that everything is ready..
19:45:44 <robyduck> :)
19:46:45 <Mailga> no one will check the contents?
19:46:49 <Mitzie> Ok, so where should we put the announcement?
19:47:02 <robyduck> Mitzie: will you give us (or better sroberts) the text of the post?
19:47:29 <Mitzie> The text of the post on the announce list?
19:47:45 <croberts> Mailga: the contents of the wiki page or the contents off the annoucment
19:47:49 <Mitzie> mailga, you mean what they write? They hve to join the marketing team at first
19:49:20 <croberts> robyduck: i will write up my introduction. it looks like the FAS group for websites is invite only
19:50:00 <Mailga> Mitzie, that's what I mean, but any sentence regerred to politician and so on? we need a guideline.
19:50:14 <robyduck> croberts: just apply
19:51:19 <croberts> robyduck: ok :)
19:51:56 <Mitzie> You are write, maybe we should add new people as authors (and not as editors) so they can only write posts and not edit all posts posted. And also we could add their posts to pending review, so an editor/admin can review them and then approve it
19:52:03 <Mitzie> *right
19:52:21 <croberts> +1 Mitzie
19:52:32 <Mitzie> good idea mailga
19:52:40 <croberts> +1 mailga
19:52:49 <robyduck> Mitzie: I like this workflow
19:52:56 <Mailga> +1 Mitzie
19:53:09 <Mitzie> and after the user can be trusted, we could promote him to editor
19:53:38 <Mitzie> Besides, I login on the magazine twice a day, so if something is changed, we could correct it quickly
19:53:48 <Mailga> yep, that's the way.
19:54:00 <Mitzie> :)
19:54:10 <croberts> I agree with robyduck, this is a good workflow :)
19:55:20 <robyduck> Mitzie: is the iCal app working fine?
19:55:28 <Mitzie> I also changed the plugin we used as a contact us form; I added a new on that supports captcha
19:55:28 <croberts> I will add the magazine to the main wiki page at the bottom with the sub projects. I will have design make a little magazine icon
19:56:25 <Mitzie> No, Althought (kevin I think) opend a ticket so to make it to all ambassadors mandatory to post their events on the fedocal as well
19:56:56 <Mailga> croberts, have you filed a ticket in the dedign trac?
19:57:05 <robyduck> yes, we approved that at the past FAmSCo meeting
19:57:21 <robyduck> but I mean from a technical point of view
19:57:36 <croberts> mailga: i will after the meeting
19:57:46 <Mitzie> great, so I will have to open a ticket for the calendar to be divided in different kind of events..
19:58:17 <Mailga> ok lets add an action item :-)
19:58:42 <croberts> #action have design create a magazine icon, after its created, add the magazine project to the bottom of the wiki
19:58:47 <robyduck> and different regions as well, am I right? We have to see how fedocal 0.2 will ook like
19:58:47 <robyduck> s/ook/look
19:59:16 <Mitzie> Yes, it is working fine I have tested it and it works perfectly, but when you import, it will add all the events to a specific category you will choose(and that is why we need to seperate the events)
19:59:37 <robyduck> ok, gotcha, thx
20:00:48 <croberts> I am also working on getting the wiki search to show the magazine wiki page when magazine is searched
20:01:01 <croberts> search has improved by 3% so far
20:02:22 <Mitzie> #action mitzie open a ticket on the fedocal
20:02:27 <croberts> right now when you search magazine it shows a ton of stuff from 09
20:02:52 <Mitzie> nice croberts
20:02:53 * Mailga has to go, dinner is waiting for me.
20:03:01 <croberts> take care mailga
20:03:05 <croberts> thanks for coming
20:03:11 <Mailga> see you later guys.
20:03:17 <Mitzie> ok mailga
20:03:20 <robyduck> see you Mailga
20:03:39 <croberts> well we are running a little over on time so i will change the topic to open floor, unless we have anything to dicuss about the magazine
20:03:47 <croberts> else*
20:04:14 <Mitzie> I think everything is covered. We will discuss next time about the magazine group when suehle will be online
20:04:26 <croberts> ok sounds good
20:04:30 <croberts> #topic open floor
20:05:30 <croberts> We should bring up in the next meeting when Suehle is here, the magazine FAS group
20:05:37 <croberts> see if we can get ownership of that group
20:05:40 <Mitzie> Anyone would like to say  something here?
20:05:52 <Mitzie> yes, croberts
