I believe mattdm has volunteered to help with content. 19:05:34 <suehle> Does anyone have interest in working on content for other topic areas? 19:06:14 <mailga> suehle, think we should ask to ither groups. 19:06:26 <mailga> other* sorry 19:07:44 <suehle> mailga, sure, and we've had a few people say they'd help with this or that. I just wanted to throw it out there since I think there are a couple of people here who might not have heard about them before and wondered what this mailing list discussion was about. :) 19:08:55 <john_terrill> I'd be happy to help with any editing. 19:09:01 <suehle> john_terrill, thanks! 19:09:15 <jzb> howdy all 19:09:21 <suehle> how-dee 19:09:27 <suehle> #topic Fedora Magazine 19:09:35 <mailga> suehle, ok, I'm interested, but wich are competence of mkt group? What shall we do? 19:09:36 <jzb> suehle: I can help with the cloud + server ones 19:09:42 <mailga> ops! too late. 19:09:47 * jzb catching up on reading backlog 19:09:49 <suehle> #topic back to fliers 19:09:54 <suehle> We can always go backwards :D 19:10:21 <suehle> mailga, I'm not sure what your question is 19:10:36 <suehle> jzb, I can't imagine you know anything about cloouuuuds ;) 19:10:48 <jzb> suehle: I'll fake it. 19:11:08 <suehle> jzb, do you know mattdm? 19:11:16 <mailga> suehle, the design is competence of ertwork, and the topics are copetence of each group. Isn't it? 19:11:18 <jzb> suehle: I believe we've met :-) 19:11:41 <suehle> It would be nice if we could get that content nailed down in the next week or so, and then maybe I could get it in the template between beers at LinuxCon New Orleans or something so we'll have them for LinuxCon Europe 19:12:00 <jzb> suehle: My plan is to have a draft by the end of this week. 19:12:16 <suehle> mailga, we're pulling in content with help from subject experts and then using an existing template 19:12:36 <jzb> mailga: usually it's tricky to get a lot of content out of SMEs, so it's good to start with a draft they can tweak. 19:12:46 <jzb> or do a brain dump with the SMEs and then clean it up. 19:12:59 <jzb> (what suehle said...) 19:13:16 <mitzie> Sorry suehle something about the magazine. We were discussing with Croberts if we can take ownership of the magazine contributors list in fas 19:13:28 <suehle> #topic Fedora Magazine 19:13:46 <mitzie> The guy who ownes it has his account inactive 19:13:56 <mailga> suehle, jzb I'm ok with it. But we should use this template for publicizing events. 19:13:57 <suehle> OK... I'm not sure I even realized a FAS group had been created specifically for the magazine. What's the point of it? 19:14:13 <suehle> mitzie, who? 19:14:43 <mitzie> Sorry I am from android and it will take too long to find it. Croberts? 19:15:11 <mitzie> We could approve members who have shown magazine contribution 19:15:20 <suehle> I just looked it up. I don't know what that FAS group was for, but it's not for this. 19:15:30 <suehle> It was created in 2008, long before we started doing this. 19:15:46 <mitzie> Yes, I noticed that 19:15:48 <suehle> mitzie, if they for some reason need a group, why not just add them to marketing? 19:16:07 <suehle> If I had to guess, it was related to the brief (very brief) print Fedora Magazine project. 19:16:17 <jzb> http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-docs-list/2009-February/msg00036.html 19:16:19 <jzb> I guess? 19:16:19 <mitzie> I just found it in fas, and the owner has his acc deactivated 19:17:13 * mailga think it's time for change topic 19:17:38 <suehle> mailga, is there something you want to discuss? 19:17:50 * jreznik has one topic :) 19:18:23 <mailga> no, we're talkin about fedora magazine and you came back in the topic. 19:18:33 <croberts> suehle: one more thing about the magazine before we change if you dont mind 19:18:41 <mitzie> Sorry mailga I am with friends 19:18:59 <mitzie> And loged in from androirc 19:18:59 <suehle> croberts, go ahead 19:19:04 <mailga> mitzie, don't worry. 19:19:37 <croberts> Mitzie filed a ticket with infra about the site being slow, and kevin replied. we added a plugin that he suggested and the site is working much faster now 19:19:37 <croberts> https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/3985#comment:1> 19:20:04 <croberts> he suggested making admins use openid and removing https to increase speed, is this something that should be done or no 19:20:08 <suehle> Cool. You'll also notice the slowness is related to https--you see it when you've at some point been logged into wordpress. 19:20:25 <mitzie> Yes croberts thanks! 19:20:40 <suehle> We do use a sort of workaround to let us use openid for the login, so I guess somebody would just have to make that change. 19:20:43 <jzb> suehle: how can I get access to do mysqldumps, etc. to keep backups? also make sure we're doing updates? 19:20:57 <suehle> jzb, mizmo set it all up, so I'd poke her 19:21:04 <jzb> I've noticed we're behind on WP updates, which makes me nervous 19:21:10 <jzb> suehle: OK 19:21:22 <suehle> We also need to give Miro Hrončok credit for the picture of the 3d printed logos. 19:21:27 <mitzie> We are covered with wp updates jzb 19:21:39 <mitzie> I think 19:21:40 <jzb> mitzie: did we run that today? 19:21:59 <mitzie> Sorry run what? 19:21:59 <jzb> mitzie: I know I can run the updates via the admin interface, but I like to do a backup 1st. 19:22:07 <jzb> mitzie: the WP updates 19:22:18 <mitzie> Is there a wp update available? 19:22:39 <mitzie> Or a plugin/theme one? 19:22:43 <croberts> +1 jzb I agree we should have a backup 19:22:49 <croberts> backups* 19:23:03 <mitzie> I think openshift takes on its own 19:24:04 <jzb> mitzie: I still see 9 updates needed in WordPress. 19:24:17 <jzb> themes + plugins 19:24:31 <suehle> jzb, just ping mizmo about how to get in there, and you can be in charge of updates and backups :) 19:24:35 <mitzie> They are thene updates, which I think is not necessary 19:24:37 <jzb> suehle: on it, thanks 19:24:40 <suehle> #topic open floor 19:24:43 <suehle> jreznik? 19:24:46 <jzb> mitzie: plugin and theme updates 19:25:02 <jreznik> ok - as you can see, I'm here, that means one thing :) 19:25:12 <jreznik> F20 Alpha is getting closer 19:25:15 <suehle> it's release notes time! 19:25:17 <croberts> alpha time :) 19:25:22 <mitzie> For the plugins I update then, but the one listed have no new features 19:25:28 <jreznik> suehle: and announcements :) 19:25:31 <jreznik> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F20_Alpha_release_announcement 19:25:37 <mitzie> I update them occasional 19:25:47 <suehle> jreznik, when do you need it by? 19:26:23 <jreznik> well, we have still a few blockers but we're pretty close - Alpha is next Tuesday 19:26:34 <jreznik> and Readiness meeting is this Thursdat 19:26:43 <jreznik> Thursday (dog wants to play ;-) 19:26:51 <suehle> we'll get the Heisenbugs out for you and make something happen! 19:27:00 <jreznik> cool, thanks! 19:27:14 <jreznik> yes, we already hit one heisenbug - great name for release :))) 19:27:33 <jreznik> it's Alpha - so basic coverage is enough 19:27:50 <jreznik> and I can do the review if all mentioned changes are in Alpha 19:27:54 <suehle> jreznik, any suggestions on particularly interesting features? 19:28:27 <jreznik> #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=Changes%20Tracking&list_id=1691171&product=Fedora 19:28:40 <jreznik> MODIFIED changes should be testable and mostly done 19:29:01 <jreznik> suehle: ARM as primary is pretty interesting one 19:29:13 <jreznik> especially from marketing POV 19:29:35 <jreznik> but we do not promise it to stay primary architecture for final release 19:29:47 <suehle> cool. We'll get something together by the readiness meeting. 19:30:02 <jzb> Perl 5.18, woohoo! 19:30:23 <jzb> NWM bonding support is actually pretty cool 19:30:24 <jreznik> what needs coverage is no default sendmail and rsyslog 19:30:40 <jreznik> it's still ASSIGNED but should be done (just not updated) 19:31:09 <jreznik> jzb: also NM CLI is pretty nice feature 19:31:31 <jzb> jreznik: application installer shows MODIFIED but if I'm reading the items correctly probably too early to mention? 19:32:23 <jreznik> jzb: there is initial implementation 19:32:38 <jreznik> already in F20 and will in alpha 19:33:05 <jzb> OK 19:33:42 <mitzie> Sorry guys I will have to go, forgive me, but I will read the minutes 19:34:30 <jreznik> so even f20 is pretty nice :) 19:35:11 <suehle> For anyone who wants to watch the readiness meeting, it's Thursday, September 12, 2013 17:00 UTC (1 PM EDT, 10 AM PDT, 19:00 CEST) 19:35:49 <suehle> Any other topics? 19:35:49 <jreznik> historically it was sent only to "team leaders" but I think I should change it for more broader visibility 19:36:18 <jzb> suehle: should we also have an item on Fedora Magazine about that? 19:36:22 <suehle> jreznik, I think it's one of the more interesting meetings, even just to watch and not necessarily participate in 19:36:37 <suehle> jreznik, do you want us to put up a post beforehand or just a summary of the results? 19:37:09 <jreznik> suehle: it's up to you 19:37:36 <jreznik> and yes for readiness one, I added it to fedocal 19:37:52 <suehle> We could basically repurpose the email about it as an announcement post.
