Process

Design Software SIG has three channels for communication:

  • The mailing list design-team@lists.fedoraproject.org,
  • The current wiki page for suggesting design software, the need of reviewing pacakages or joining the SIG,
  • the IRC channel located on #fedora-design@irc.freenode.net for designers and #fedora-devel@irc.freenode.org for packagers.
