ianweller banner has been imported into fedora-web.git and it's on the fp.o chrome 22:18

-->| kirkz (n=kirk202@71-219-108-3.slkc.qwest.net) has joined #fedora-meeting 22:23
ianweller ther'es now a route for uploading an image if you don't have a release form, and if we would really like to use the photo, we'll ask the photographer to get one 22:24
-->| asgeirf (n=asgeirf@nat/redhat/x-45ffc57ae4c6ef34) has joined #fedora-meeting 22:24
moixs (please refresh the schedule page, I made some changes) 22:24
ianweller this would be used for photos taken before the release forms existed 22:24
ianweller so that the photographer wouldn't have to get a form signed unless we were fairly certain that the photo was going in the book. 22:24
ianweller that's all i changed since spevack's changes shortly after the meeting last week 22:25
themayor okay great 22:25
ianweller we could still use mockups 22:25
ianweller :) 22:25
* ianweller hands the floor back to themayor 22:25
|<-- drago01_ has left freenode (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)) 22:26
* herlo is here 22:26
themayor okay so one of the tasks is to update the usertestimonials 22:26
spevack more specifically 22:26
spevack to give the page a fresh outlook 22:26
-->| drago01 (n=linux@chello062178124130.3.13.univie.teleweb.at) has joined #fedora-meeting 22:26
spevack and either try to make it something current and maintainable 22:26
spevack or to retire it completely and Archive: it 22:27
spevack this came up last week 22:27
spevack but there is no owner 22:27
moixs As I said last week...too much work for too little right now. We are already lagging behind in this cycle and I don't see it as time well invested. 22:27
themayor yeah 22:27
moixs other opinions are welcome, but pick it up then :p 22:27
themayor i was wondering if anyone was interested 22:28
* spevack agrees that it is a lower priority, but wonders why we haven't tried to get someone to pick it up on the mailing list 22:28
themayor but if not we will move on 22:28
spevack an email with a vision for what we want the page to be, asking for volunteers 22:28
moixs I have a suggestion about this 22:28
spevack go ahead 22:28
moixs As I quickly told you last week, we are going to work on Fedora's positioning and marketing at school (confirmed today) 22:29
* spevack remembers 22:29
moixs I can pick up this task there, and discuss what the purpose of this page should be 22:29
moixs come up with ideas etc 22:30
moixs This can already help to clarify what it should be, before searching an owner 22:30
themayor moixs: do you want to do that one the list and see if anyone wants to help you with it 22:30
moixs themayor: at the moment, I'd like to keep it silent, for the next 3 weeks or so. 22:31
themayor okay so shall we move it down on the schedule 22:32
moixs themayor: but I can temporary take ownership of it 22:32
themayor okay so i am moving it into the next step 22:32
themayor err, nect phase 22:32
themayor and putting your name on it 22:32
moixs done 22:32

|<-- che has left freenode (Nick collision from services.) 22:33
=-= che__ is now known as che 22:33
themayor next topic 22:33
themayor the in depth feature focus 22:33
* spevack perks up 22:34
spevack https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F11_in-depth_features 22:34
themayor yes 22:34
spevack sorry to interrupt, carry on :) 22:34
themayor thanks max for putting them up 22:34
themayor stickster has already started work on one of them 22:35
themayor i should have a decent version of the kernel mode setting stuff tomorrow aftrenoon 22:35
stickster https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageKit_in_Fedora_11 22:35
themayor i was hoping to have it to day but kristian was too busy 22:35
* stickster put his interview on the wiki and hughsie will finish it when he's got time 22:35
themayor okay so there are a few that are not picked up yet 22:36
themayor volume control 22:36
themayor and virt improved console 22:37
themayor we should really be on top of these 22:37
stickster themayor: I think what's needed is email to the list to explain to people what exactly we want them to do to pick up a featue. 22:37
stickster *feature 22:37
spevack was there any discussion of these on the list between last week and tonight? 22:37
|<-- asgeirf_ has left freenode (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) 22:37
themayor aside from the brief thing on friday based on what i sent out in the weekend thing no 22:38
themayor you want me to send out something? 22:38
* spevack thought we talked about that on thursday 22:38
spevack so... yeah 22:38
themayor no we said i was going to work on mine 22:39
themayor we didnt say send something to the list 22:39
themayor at least not that i recall 22:39
themayor sorry if im mistaken 22:39
spevack well, let's get some list discussion 22:39
themayor okay ill send that out after the meeting then 22:39
spevack themayor: i think the idea was to get started on yours, and use that as a template to generate some discussion on the list and hopefully get other people to see "oh, I can do one too!" 22:39
spevack kind of like what stickster did 22:39
themayor yeah i asked kristian for some time 22:40
stickster I'm not saying my page is perfect, but if you think mine works OK, it's up for using as a template. 22:40
stickster In fact, if anyone has some ideas for how to improve mine, I would love to do so 22:40
themayor its good its a start 22:40
spevack ok, so we need an email to the list that shows the main f11 in-depth feature page, stickster's example page showing a work in progress that has just started, and asking for volunteers for the others 22:40
themayor sure 22:41
themayor and i will post my page tomorrow right after the readiness meeting 22:41
moixs Be sure to explain the difference between the talking points and the in-depth pages in the e-mail. It's not obvious right now. 22:41
spevack brilliant 22:41
spevack moixs: that is true, as evidenced by the thread last week on the list, i think Rahul started it, and stickster and i chimed in 22:42
themayor moixs: absolutely, weve spoke about it before but i will do so again 22:42
moixs Are we done with the short-term task list? 22:43
themayor one last quick thing 22:43
|<-- RodrigoPadula has left freenode ("Saindo") 22:43
* herlo suggests we put these pages into a category so we can all pick and choose from them in one central place 22:44
themayor tomorrow, we are having the beta readiness meeting 22:44
themayor herlo: the in depth features? 22:44
herlo yes 22:44
herlo themayor: it's simple, a category will help those who want to take one but don't know what's there to take. 22:44
stickster herlo: That's funny, I was thinking the same thing 22:44
herlo like me 22:44
herlo :) 22:45
themayor stickster: are you game for doing that or do you need some help? 22:45
stickster herlo: Maybe I can move that page properly. Let me try. 22:45
herlo well, it just needs a [Category:F11 In Depth Feature]] (or similar) tag at the bottom 22:45
themayor yeah 22:45
themayor and then each page needs one as is created 22:45
herlo then everyone can go to /wiki/Category:F11_In_Depth_Feature and see the list 22:46
|<-- inode0 has left freenode ("Leaving.") 22:46
herlo themayor: yes, and if you make dummy pages with nothing on them, it's easy to find and create content for those who want to help 22:46
themayor yup 22:47
* herlo missed most of last week's meeting, but wants to help. Where's the list of features to work through? 22:47
themayor herlo: whats left is volume control 22:48
themayor and virt improved console 22:48
herlo oh 22:48
herlo is there a list? 22:48
themayor yes 22:48
spevack https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F11_in-depth_features 22:48
herlo I can go through and update the pages iwth the category on them really quick 22:48
themayor https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F11_in-depth_features 22:48
themayor thanks spevack 22:48
stickster herlo: OK,done 22:48
stickster https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=Category:F11_in-depth_features 22:49
herlo stickster: sweet! 22:49
* herlo also wants to point out that it seems like double effort to create a page with that info and have a category page, since category pages can have content too 22:50
herlo I wonder if anyone would be opposed to moving the content from the F11_in-depth_features page to the F11_in-depth_features category page? 22:50
spevack whatever works 22:50
herlo well, it's already done this time, so I don't want to step on anyone's toes 22:50
stickster herlo: Already eon 22:50
stickster *done 22:51
* herlo double looks 22:51
herlo so it is 22:51
* herlo missed that point before, even though he looked at it 22:51
herlo okay, ignore me, I'll go and make those pages show up on the category page... 22:51
themayor okay 22:52
themayor so next 22:52
themayor the beta readiness meeting is tomorrow 22:52
themayor does anyone want me to bring up anything 22:53
moixs not really on my side 22:53
themayor this is going to be an opportunity to talk with art and docs also about anything we need to coordinate 22:54
themayor thats really what i hope to get out of it 22:54
stickster themayor: Exactly, it's not just "are we ready," but "are we missing anything that we need from some other team, or are they missing something from us" 22:54
themayor yup 22:54
=-= mizmo is now known as mizmo-out 22:55
stickster OK, sounds like that's a big silence == "no" 22:56
themayor yeah 22:57
themayor alright 22:57
themayor so other than that, lets talk about the picture book real quick, although we really got everything in 22:57
ianweller PICTURE! 22:57
stickster BOOK! 22:57
ianweller ,,, 22:58
ianweller oh ok you got it 22:58
ianweller umm i think i talked everything i needed to earlier in the meeting. any questions? 22:58
themayor we also have things for next week, we should make sure people have their names by them 22:59
