From Fedora Project Wiki

This page documents a proposed docs FAD.

Purpose

  • Build out completed Quick Docs and publish them
  • Identify additional topics to be moved from wiki and move them
  • Identify updates and fixes for existing docs and publish them
  • Develop a plan forward related to Modular Docs and potential cooperation with other communities and downstreams
  • Finish CI for docs building and eliminate human building
  • Develop contributor handbook
  • Get prototype of translated content online
  • Find a rep for Mindshare from docs

Impact

The completion of these goals will create the following positive change within the project:

  • The Fedora docs team will have better strategic direction for its docs
  • Docs will be publishing in a way that is not blocked by bex being busy
  • Contribution workflows will be clear

Budget

Note: RH employee air travel and Matthew Miller and Brian Exelbierd are funded via other funds

  1. Travel: $1500 for airfare, bus, train, etc. funding needed to get attendees to the FAD (assumes $900 for EU/LATAM, $300 for US)
    • Taxi fare for any attendees? - hope to arrange airport transfers with hotel, if not $400
  2. Housing: ~$4800 for hotel, etc. needed to have attendees sleep during the FAD (assumes $200/night - no room sharing - room sharing and negotiations may reduce)
  3. Food: 3185 (70/day/person * 6.5 days/person)
  4. Space: $0 - ideally included with hotel contract

Total budget: $10385 - this has some padding in it
