== Todo ==
* Wiki Page {{check}}
* Mail fedora-marketing
* Mail Fedora-design
* Blog Posts
* Decide a project structure so we know what to include in the mockup
* Set date/time for first mockup sprint
** RyanRix needs to follow up tomorrow with parents about possible time, will ping franciscod
* Project name to be decided "fedora-tour" as place holder for time being
* Ping firstboot maintainer about changes for project
* Talk to desktop team about what interface they'd prefer (GTK / QT / Browser)
* (later) fedorahosted space once we begin to code
 
== Project Outline ==
=== Firstboot Final Page ===
Add check box to final form of firstboot so that user can choose whether or not to launch this.</ br>
Will need to ping firstboot maintainer regarding this, make sure that they are aware of possible changes.

* "Tell me more about Fedora Linux"
* "Tell me more about the Fedora Linux and the Fedora Project"
* "Take a quick tour of Fedora $release $codename"
* <insert more as they come to mind>
 
=== Main Interface ===
mchua and franciscod threw around a few ideas to play with, each should be considered.
==== Web Interface ====
 
*Pros:
**Easy maintenance
*Cons:
**Dependance on web browser
**interface limitations
 
==== PyGTK ====
 
*Pros:
**Faster than loading browser
**More powerful
**Matches appearane of default Desktop Spin
*Cons:
**Maintenance
**Learning curve
 
==== PyQt ====
 
*Pros:
**Faster than loading browser
**More powerful
*Cons:
**Maintenance
**Learning curve
**May seem out of place in Desktop spin (may look better, but out of place)
 
== Documentation ==
List blog posts, meeting minutes/logs, chats, etc.
 
=== 26 Nov - First Meeting ===
Brought up issue with mchua after discussing in #fedora-social. #startmeeting was a little after this, but we went over what the project could be, and how to go about starting and implementing it.
