13:04:01 <cverna> #topic 1/ Last week's stats
13:04:09 <cverna> Let me check the stats
13:04:39 * stickster notes he is strung between several tasks right now and only half-here
13:05:13 <jakfrost> hopefully the good half
13:05:28 <cverna> So last week we did 61,380 page views, which is almost as many as the previous  week
13:05:55 <jakfrost> sort fo average I guess
13:06:03 <jakfrost> of/fo
13:06:04 <cverna> yeah :)
13:06:09 * bcotton casually strolls in
13:06:17 <jakfrost> casual ben
13:07:02 <cverna> #info Week of 1209 : 61,4K page views - sort of average :)
13:07:25 <cverna> ok let's move to the next topic
13:07:27 <cverna> #topic 2/ In progress followup
13:07:31 <cverna> #info Looking at the 'in progress' column, is there something that's been finished? Anything to follow up on with its author?
13:07:35 <cverna> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
13:07:57 <cverna> nothing there :(
13:08:20 <cverna> oh no sorry we have quite a few
13:09:14 <jakfrost> #264 seems well in progress, but some stuff to add yet
13:10:20 <jakfrost> #258 is still as last week, no preview and no response from the author after a Dec nudge
13:10:33 <jakfrost> Dec 02
13:10:51 <cverna> yeah we should probably move it back to Spec for #258
13:11:57 <jakfrost> #234 I have been in contact through Taiga with the author, they are going to update to F33 as the OS instead of CentOS
13:12:26 <cverna> #253 seems to be in a good shape a bit long tho
13:12:27 <jakfrost> and of course SELinux enabled
13:13:05 <jakfrost> bcotton know more about that one
13:13:40 <bcotton> no, i'll nudge geoff later today on it. i think it's still early AM for him
13:14:19 <cverna> ack
13:14:56 <cverna> Ben Cotton: how is #244 Fedora IoT going ?
13:15:26 <jakfrost> #256 is not in WP yet but a preview shows the markdown doc and it is in progress according to the author
13:15:53 <bcotton> also needs an author nudge
13:16:22 <bcotton> thankfully, poking people and saying "hey, is this done" is a core part of my job duties :-D
13:16:52 <cverna> lol :)
13:17:11 <cverna> ok I don't think we have anything ready to be moved to review yet
13:17:22 <jakfrost> agree
13:18:26 <cverna> #info Are there any upcoming test days?
13:18:54 <jakfrost> I think in the new year maybe??
13:18:55 <cverna> We had a post on discussion.fp.o about it but it is for 2021
13:19:17 <cverna> yeah but good to keep in mind
13:19:47 <jakfrost> yes it is
13:20:06 <cverna> #info kernel test day week 2021-01-04 through 2021-01-11
13:20:15 <cverna> #topic 3/ Finished articles to review
13:20:19 <cverna> #topic 3/ Finished articles to review
13:20:24 <cverna> rhhh
13:20:26 <cverna> #info Looking at the 'review' column, let's decide which articles are good to go. Move each either to the 'to edit' (finished) or to the 'in progress' (needs more work) and provide feedback.
13:20:31 <cverna> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
13:21:08 <cverna> so we have #259, but I don't know if the review/edit was done
13:22:04 <jakfrost> Well, I looked at it a bit, but it does need editing, and I believe it is complete
13:22:36 <jakfrost> One of the images used has a caption that is funky in the preview
13:22:39 <bcotton> i gave it a review as the subject, so it's probably ready for someone not-me to edit it
13:23:00 <cverna> ok moving to To Edit then :)
13:23:04 <jakfrost> So let's move it to edit
13:23:21 <jakfrost> done
13:23:28 <cverna> thanks
13:23:32 <jakfrost> welcome
13:23:48 * cverna realized that I was not logged in in taiga
13:24:01 <cverna> #topic 4/ Articles to edit
13:24:06 <cverna> #info Looking at the 'review' column, let's decide which articles are good to go. Move each either to the 'to edit' (finished) or to the 'in progress' (needs more work) and provide feedback.
13:24:11 <cverna> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
13:24:18 <cverna> so we have 1 article to edit :P
13:24:32 <jakfrost> I can take it
13:24:44 <cverna> jakfrost++
13:24:49 <jakfrost> unless someone else wants to do it
13:25:22 <cverna> I can't take anything this week personally, I have too much going on
13:25:25 <jakfrost> action me man
13:26:03 <cverna> #action jackfrost to edit #259 HDYF Ben Cotton
13:26:15 <jakfrost> does it need an image?
13:26:39 <cverna> Looks like we have one :) with Ben Cotton on it :D
13:26:55 <jakfrost> okay then that's even easier
13:27:00 <cverna> #topic 5/ Publishing schedule
13:27:05 <cverna> #info Looking at the 'queued' and 'to edit' columns, decide the publishing schedule for the next week period.
13:27:09 <cverna> #info If there is not enough content, we might also need to look at the 'in progress' or even the 'article spec' columns come up with additional content.
13:27:14 <cverna> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
13:28:18 <cverna> jakfrost: when do you feel like that article could be ready
13:28:40 <jakfrost> this friday if needed, monday too
13:29:35 <jakfrost> possible #253 the astronomy lab article will be ready to edit for next week in the time between meetings
13:29:35 <cverna> we had one article this week, and next week does not look to good so maybe we can have #259 publish on Monday
13:29:45 <jakfrost> agreed
13:30:21 <cverna> #proposed PUBLISHING SCHEDULE: Mon Dec 14, HDYF Ben Cotton (edit:jakfrost, image: done)
13:30:30 <bcotton> +1
13:30:43 <jakfrost> +1
13:31:07 <cverna> #agreed PUBLISHING SCHEDULE: Mon Dec 14, HDYF Ben Cotton (edit:jakfrost, image: done)
13:31:12 <cverna> \o/
13:31:22 <jakfrost> \o/
13:31:24 <cverna> #topic 6/ Editor of the Week
13:31:34 <cverna> who wants my seat :P
13:32:11 <jakfrost> I can do it next week
13:32:25 <cverna> I think next week is probably the last meeting of the year
13:32:35 <jakfrost> my how time flies
13:33:08 <cverna> #info jakfrost will be Editor of the Week next week
13:33:23 <cverna> #topic 7/ Open floor
13:33:45 <cverna> Are we ok to not have meetings on the 23rd and 30th ?
13:34:05 <jakfrost> I'm okay with that
13:34:28 <cverna> I ll try to prepare a few 2020 Best of article for next week meeting
13:34:39 <cverna> so that we can plan that for the break
13:34:58 <jakfrost> cverna: you took the words right out of my mouth
13:35:13 <jakfrost> or keyboard
13:35:18 <jakfrost> in this case
13:35:21 <cverna> #info no magazine meeting Dec 23rd and Dec 30th
13:35:26 <cverna> jakfrost:  :D
13:35:43 <cverna> Anything else for open floor ?
13:35:51 <jakfrost> I got nothing
13:36:02 <cverna> rengland: that was your first meeting ?
13:36:02 <bcotton> nothing here
13:36:13 <rengland> I lurked in the previous one.
13:36:25 <jakfrost> rengland, what do you think about editing?
13:36:32 <cverna> rengland: ah cool :) nice to see you here
13:36:43 <rengland> Lot of moving parts to learn about in this process
13:37:11 <jakfrost> yeah it can seem busy
13:37:11 <rengland> I may take a little while to sort them all out.
13:37:38 <rengland> Question: do you edit for technical correctness, or just form and format?
13:37:55 <jakfrost> both
13:38:03 <cverna> In my experience both
13:38:16 <cverna> at least making sure that the technical part works
13:38:37 <jakfrost> and the presented info is readable
13:38:52 <rengland> In my experience this may be a slog for me at times to come up to speed on topics
13:39:28 <rengland> If I can cherry pick a bit I may see about giving it a go.
13:39:49 <jakfrost> there are some easily approachable experts in the Fedora community usually open to questions of technical nature
13:39:57 <cverna> You don't have to be an expert on the subject tho, but running through the steps described is a good idea, to catch potentials error
13:40:13 <cverna> what jakfrost said :)
13:40:24 <rengland> That I can do.  "Monkey see"  :-)
13:40:25 <jakfrost> what cverna said ;)
13:41:37 <jakfrost> chery picking is fine too, pick things you are more comfortable with at first
13:41:55 <cverna> ok going to close the meeting in a few sec
13:42:00 <rengland> Fair enough.  Thanks
13:42:04 <cverna> thanks everyone for joining
13:42:06 <jakfrost> thanks for running a good meeting
13:42:10 <jakfrost> cverna
13:42:20 <cverna> see you next week :)
13:42:29 <jakfrost> next week
