Announcing Fedora Outreach mailing list -- please subscribe if interested
by Matthew Miller 01 Nov '14

01 Nov '14

Because response to the Fedora Outreach Steering Committee proposal has been overwhelmingly positive, I created a new mailing list, initially to discuss the possible creation of such a group and to coordinate actually doing it, and then eventually to be a discussion list _for_ the group. If you are interested in this, please subscribe at <https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/outreach>. Thanks! [This message is massively multi-posted — please don't reply. Instead, discuss on the new list!] -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

Is Design Team interested in becoming part of a new "Fedora Outreach Steering Committee"?
by Matthew Miller 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Take a look at <https://fedorahosted.org/famsco/ticket/373> (you should be able to once you're logged in; the FAmSCo trac requires a FAS account but I don't think anything else). From that ticket: With the new Fedora Council, some of the broader budget discussions are being brought up into a higher project level, and at the same time, FAmSCo has successfully delegated other responsibilities down to the regional ambassadors' committees. Meanwhile, the project really lacks coordination between various areas of outreach — Ambassadors, Marketing, Design Team (which is responsible for branding), and support efforts like Ask Fedora and even Documentation and Web. This may also include areas of the new Fedora.next Working Groups which touch on these areas — branding, marketing, conference attendance in support of a particular product, and etc. The new Outreach Representative on the Council is meant to help with this, but: a) we'd like that person to be selected by an elected community body, and FAmSCo is the current closest match, even though it doesn't encompass everything, b) having a group with this shared responsibility reduces the workload on one single individual, c) having a committee connected into the various groups will help prevent cases where that person happens to have a blindspot due to their background in the project, and d) having a coordinated outreach group would be useful in itself. This new "FOSCo" group would mirror FESCo, and to jointly represent the interests of all of the outreach-oriented parts of the project. Design is a little bit of a tricky one because in some parts it's more engineering and in other ways neither outreach nor engineering, but some aspects (like branding) seem to make sense. The current FAmSCo group is generally in favor, but also in some ways that is group which would be least impacted. So, what do you think? If people are generally in favor, I'm thinking we'd start this with the post-F21 elections. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

Firewall Graphics
by Pete Travis 17 Oct '14

17 Oct '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, The Fedora Docs team is planning on writing a Firewall Guide, to explain what a firewall does, how it functions, and how to administer it. For the initial explanation, I think that some visuals would be very helpful to the reader. Right now, the best allegory I can contrive is a post office. The outside network is.. well, anyone who might send mail. The postman is the firewall, the post office boxes are ports, and the customers who get mail in the boxes are listening services. Is there anyone on the design team that would like to hammer the idea into something useful, and work with us on creating imagery for this guide? - -- - -- Pete Travis - Fedora Docs Project Leader - 'randomuser' on freenode - immanetize(a)fedoraproject.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJUMEi+AAoJEL1wZM0+jj2ZpQ8H/3uH3tgCGQXkVbPIUlIx+/X4 LPUV5F3YobTw/UoJXqDI8quvO+vhHUg9IJbeVrldkc4hQ6kg5n3nYDqyBZYgnhc2 oPNF531fUt0cK54CcvqbAds7//+GXrLPndFyBD1qx6GkvWb+GQroHdXL13kQqGce JHHaO5cNyFTpMqkqLpB+D+BssLtCBKQhMM+q7KJZPNznty+tm3EuzqLNqGBXqX7L zAQ5KNPqVU+sZS2phJHplG/C9Xj75gKeKmE1gKRL/rYAWHCAolasmmfcHZ8skISW 9KW7cu9TQYkVT3WB8yTIqHOTe1ngIUyd2Kku3fXPSrF1QEsoag8lK637jS9/7K0= =iQGb -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

proposal: Proposal: consider tranforming FAmSCo into "FOSCo" — Fedora Outreach Steering Committee
by Matthew Miller 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

See https://fedorahosted.org/famsco/ticket/373 The idea is to transform FAmSCo into Fedora Outreach Steering Committee, representing and coordinating Ambassadors, Marketing, Design Team (which is responsible for branding), and support efforts like Ask Fedora and even Documentation and Web. It would also include areas of the new Fedora.next Working Groups which touch on these areas — branding, marketing, conference attendance in support of a particular product, and etc. (Not to _rule_ them, but to coordinate and enable.) What do you think? [I'm multi-posting this to several lists, btw] -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

Outreach Representiatve for the new Fedora Council
by Truong Anh Tuan 15 Oct '14

15 Oct '14

Hi there, You may already know, a new top-level community leadership and governance body, Fedora Council [0], is on its way. One important aspect of this is an "Outreach Representative", which asked to be selected by FAmSCo. And FPL has had some initial messages [1] on ambassadors list to get it started. Since Outreach is much larger in scope than Ambassadors, in the last FAmSCo meeting [2], we decided to forward this to other teams to nominate more good candidates. Please discuss this within your team. Kind regards, Tuan [0] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Council [1] https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2014-October/022876.h… [2] http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2014-10-14/famsco-2014101…

I believe that the intent is for all Fedora artwork (other than that which is covered by trademark) to be licensed for reuse, probably under a Creative Commons license. However, this particular image seems to have been migrated from our older wiki and has possibly lost history and licensing information in the process. I'm CC'ing our design team mailing list, where hopefully someone can trace down the details for this particular image. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader
