Today's EMEA Ambassadors Meeting
by Jiri Eischmann 05 Dec '12

05 Dec '12

Hi, we're supposed to have a regular meeting today. Unfortunately, I'm very busy this week and I have to finish something today, so I'm not sure if I can make it to the meeting today. Is here anyone who'd volunteer to chair the meeting in the case I don't show up? There is a bunch of people who attend the meeting regularly and know the drill, so I'm pretty sure we have good candidates. Jiri

Help spread the word about a survey for Fedora?
by Máirín Duffy 04 Dec '12

04 Dec '12

Hi Ambassadors! You may have heard about Kevin Carillo's FLOSS community survey: https://www.linux.com/news/software/applications/666038-survey-how-importan… Fedora wasn't initially included in the list of projects for the survey, but Kevin very kindly offered to add Fedora to the list. However, the survey closes this Friday, and when I spoke with Kevin last week there were 0 respondents for Fedora. :( He suggested that we advertise it a bit more in the community to find some respondents. So, I could use your help in getting the word out about the survey. The basics are this: - The survey is aimed at new contributors, who have started contributing no earlier than January 2010. - The survey is anonymous. - The survey is run on open source software (Lime Survey) and all of the (anonymized) data will be published under an open license and the research results will also be published openly. If you are close to a new Fedora contributor, would you mind telling them about this survey? If you have time, could you help blog to Planet Fedora about it? Thanks for any help you can provide, folks!! ~m

FAmNA Meeting Announcement (04 December 2012)
by inode0 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Please join us for our weekly FAmNA meeting this Tuesday at 9:00pm Eastern in #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net. I'd like to remind everyone that it is important for us to get some work accomplished at these meetings and staying on the topic is important to that end. All comments are welcome from ambassadors during the meetings but please wait until the Open Floor to add any subject matter not included in the meeting agenda via a ticket. Feel free to add to the agenda. The easy way to add an agenda item is described at the bottom of this announcement. Especially if you have an event coming up that needs some attention. This week's meeting leader: Jon Disnard == Meeting Agenda == === Announcements === Time for brief announcements. === Orientation Topics === After giving this some thought I have concluded there is way too much material for one meeting so we'll add one or two topics each week until we have everything covered. Please add topics or suggest future topics for us to cover. * ??? === Tickets === Tickets scheduled for discussion at this meeting can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/famna/report/9 Please read through each ticket in advance so you can be prepared to discuss them at the meeting. === Select Next Meeting Leader === === Open Floor === Unscheduled topics can be raised during the open floor if time permits. Discussion of any topic will generally be more productive if participants know about the topics in advance and have some time to think about them, so please add your topics to the meeting agenda in the ticket system when possible. If you would like to add a topic for discussion at our meetings please open a ticket at https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ and set its milestone to meeting. Thanks, John

APAC Web FAD proposal -> Package maintainer's wishlist clean up
by Ankur Sinha 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hi folks, I propose a simple web-FAD to clean up the package maintainer's wishlist[1]. It shouldn't really take up more than an hour if we have a few people working on this. Q. What is the wishlist? A. It's a list of packages that fedora users would like to see in the fedora repositories. Unfortunately, the list is not well maintained and thus, gives inaccurate information to package maintainers. Q. Benefits of the clean up? A. Package maintainers will benefit from a well maintained wish-list. It's a good place to direct prospective package maintainers too, when they're looking for packages to get started with. Q. How much time will it take? A. Maybe an hour and a half, two at the most. Q. What do I need to carry? A. A connection to the interweb, a web browser, IRC client. Optional but recommended: Pizza, bacon, coffee, beer, $food, $music. Q. Why APAC specific? A. Folks from one region are more likely to be available at a certain time. Any one interested is more than welcome to join in, as always. :) Q. What do I need to know? A. Reading/writing/wiki editing. Use of package manager tools, bugzilla, packagedb. Should have FAS account to be able to edit wiki. Q. What do I need to do? A. Simple workflow: - Pick up a package listed in the wishlist - Check if it is already packaged, or if a review ticket has already been filed on bugzilla - Modify wiki page accordingly. Q. What can I learn during this FAD? A. Using yum/$package_manager; using bugzilla; package maintainers process; meet people, get to know your community folks, above all, *have fun*. Q. Future plans? A. See if anyone would like to take over the responsibility of maintaining the wish list. We could even repeat the FAD every month or two. I haven't thought of a time yet. APAC folks, are you up for it? Please reply with a date and time that is convenient to you. Sometime this week, Wednesday/Thursday would be nice. Please forward the e-mail to other APAC regional mailing lists. I'm cc'ing the Join and India lists. [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur: "FranciscoD" Please only print if necessary.

Hi, Does Fedora or Red Hat have any plans to have some kind of exhibit for CES 2013? http://www.cesweb.org/ I missed the free registration, but I'll be attending anyway. I think it would be good to have an exhibit there. Thanks, Dan
