Looking at weekly downloads for the downloads
on getfedora.org(jflory7,
07:10:53)
What about the downward trends toward the end
of a release? Perhaps associated with the improved methods of
upgrading(jflory7,
07:12:02)
Edition + Spin Downloads as Percent of Total over Time(jflory7, 07:12:18)
Workstation around 75% of downloads(jflory7,
07:12:28)
Workstation network installer was not always
tracked for downloads, but had fair popularity discovered when we
were tracking that(jflory7,
07:13:05)
Q: Netinstaller taking a bite from server
downloads? Why?(jflory7,
07:13:30)
A: Not a good answer for this, but seems there
might have been some overlap with people using Server for different
applications. Statistics available make it hard to determine an
answer(jflory7,
07:14:02)
Popular ISP is using Fedora Atomic in some
prod. environments (based on discussions at RH Summit 2016), so
these numbers may not be the most accurate representation (that
might be the most popular version of Fedora... ever??)(jflory7,
07:15:16)
Q: Does everyone work for Red Hat?(jflory7,
07:21:45)
A: Contributors with @redhat.com address 26%,
Red Hatters sneakily using other domains 9%, everyone else
65%(jflory7,
07:22:12)
These numbers generated manually at times, a
lot of the 9% were contributors who started contributing outside of
Red Hat and came along later(jflory7,
07:22:58)
Number of contributors providing feedback on package updates each week(jflory7, 07:23:20)
Grouped quarterly activity level of each
contributor(jflory7,
07:23:34)
People responsible for the top percentage of
fedmsg hits do about 20% of the work, roughly(jflory7,
07:24:27)
Top 10% cumulatively do about 2/3 of the
work(jflory7,
07:25:05)
Inaccuracy of dataset: there is a user used for
mass rebuilds of packaged, which explains massive skew at some
points(jflory7,
07:25:42)
Casual contributors usually drop off steeply
around Christmastime or so(jflory7,
07:26:21)
We've been under heavy attacks by spammers in
recent months, impeded some progress in places like higher
restrictions on wiki edits, but puiterwijk / basset have helped keep
this activity to a minimum(jflory7,

mattdm: "I do not set the goals for Fedora - as
Fedora leadership and Council, try to discern collective goals of
everyone in this room and those who could not be here today in the
community"(jflory7,
07:30:38)
Lots of the talks are helping show that and not
just ideas I'm pulling out of my head, but ideas we're working on
together(jflory7,
07:30:55)
If a release is short or long, we're trying to
keep / stick to it(jflory7,
07:31:31)
New marketing initiative to not focus on
"developers" and being broad, focusing on smaller bit and building
on existing positive relationships could be useful to help focus and
target our efforts(jflory7,
07:35:20)
Ongoing efforts to attract Python developers to
the distribution and community(jflory7,
07:35:35)
Containerized bits of operating system is
likely future of the operating system across editions(jflory7,
07:38:32)
Lots of bleeding edge tech in Atomic and
experimenting with crazy ideas - we like to play with leading edge
(see: Foundations, Features/First)(jflory7,
07:39:07)
Looking at OpenShift: not just a container
system, but a host cluster system(jflory7,

Q: "Do we have any statistics on whether or not
the University Involvement Initiative has impacted growth in the
project?"(jflory7,
07:44:39)
A: No hard data available, Fedora Women's Day
which was successful fits along with improving diversity efforts.
There is a large survey being worked on for contributor community to
best understand our community as well.(jflory7,
07:45:13)
Q: "Do you have any stats on how people are
using Fedora as compared to other stats in the presentation?"(jflory7,
07:46:07)
A: No, not available (see: privacy concerns),
but still able to discern patterns from downloads and upgrade
activity(jflory7,
07:46:41)
Q: Activity regarding contributor and user
activity in the project(jflory7,
07:47:29)
A: For community, we have field in FAS account
to understand where our contributors come from (available but not
measured at this time), some regional data for users can be
discernable but difficult to measure due to regional issues, e.g.
connection speeds and strength affecting number of
connections(jflory7,
07:48:26)
Q: "Is the information on fedmsg a major
privacy threat with how public it is?"(jflory7,
07:48:38)
A: Reasons for not more invasive data is being
careful about privacy, data is very valuable for understanding our
project but also privacy is a major concern too - this is an ongoing
discussion in the Council(jflory7,
