I would like to come but that's gonna cost a whole lot. The US embassy here places a high financial hedge for visitors to jump (not to mention costs of visit to the consulate for VISA interviews). I'm not sure the stress is worth it -- especially when I could be of help remotely. ----- Reply message ----- From: "Máirín Duffy" <duffy(a)fedoraproject.org> To: "Fedora Design Team" <design-team(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> Subject: [Design-team] Design FAD - sign up by Monday (sep 15) Date: Tue, Sep 9, 2014 3:29 PM Hi folks! gnokii had a great idea for us to have a FAD to give the team a bit of a boost - it sort of started with how we'll need to do wallpapers differently with Fedora.next, but we have other issues to talk about too, like our ticket queue.

future for Nuancier
by S.Kemter 01 Oct '14

01 Oct '14

Hi, We have done our second voting in Nuancier and managed the first time te whole process in it. The results and statistics are accessible here: Fedora 20: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/nuancier/stats/1/ Fedora 21: https://apps.fedoraproject.org/nuancier/stats/2/ As you can see the number of voters didnt increase that high, 128 on F20 and 116 on F21. With this low number of voters, its easily that submissions with low quality get enough votes to be amongst the winners. For bettering that there are several options * increase the number of voters, thats hard to influence at all * make a point voting system first choice gets highest available points, but that is harder to hack * enforce a number of votes as minimum, we didnt want that before as it can have a negative influence that some choose an wallpaper they really like and fill up the rest with random choices. * make a point system and give a group of people higher points to award, like design-team and/or sysamin-nuancier So for me last option is the possible solution for it any other solutions or opinions? I also have a feeling that not only the number of submissions get decreased as also the quality of the submissions decreased. I also had the opinion of some submitters of high quality pictures, the will not contribute as they felt insulted to end up in the lowest ranks against submissions with lower quality who was ranked much higher * increase the visibility of the contest, havent written to project and announce lists for F21 to get more submissions again * bring in a mentoring system for submissions I feel the second option would change the situation for an better quality dramatically, but for it Nuancier have to change a little bit more. * an submitter can submit more but can have with the help of the mentors choose the right submissions for an final submission (lesser options to vote on with higher quality, would change also the voting problem) * we sooner or later come to the "ubuntu-problem" the had so many submissions that they had to allow only one submission a user, we would avoid getting to such an solution if submitter had any chance to preselect there submission with the help of mentors What I have in mind with this idea is to build a community around the supplemental wallpaper, we could submitters who have submitted over a time high quality content the status of mentoring others and keep in this way the quality high as well the interest in the supplemental wallpapers. are there opinions or other ideas to that? br gnokii -- make me rich, buy my Inkscape book http://is.gd/yq5OD0 ;)

by Martin Sourada 19 Sep '14

19 Sep '14

There are some artefacts in the F21 alpha backgrounds, see the bug report bellow for more info. It's present in the original images I was sent by gnokii. I hope someone from the team could improve them for beta, I unfortunately have barely enough time for the packaging...

Re: [Design-team] F21 anaconda artwork
by Onyeibo Oku 09 Sep '14

Anaconda's UI has been a concern to me -- particularly the page that shows installation progress. What do you think of my proposed rendition? What kind of help is required? ----- Reply message ----- From: "Máirín Duffy" <duffy(a)fedoraproject.org> To: "Fedora Design Team" <design-team(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> Subject: [Design-team] F21 anaconda artwork Date: Tue, Sep 9, 2014 7:25 PM Hi folks, Just a heads up - David Shea pointed me to this bug and Elad made a good comment here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1131254 The buttons in Anaconda are going to be the bright GTK blue so we should probably use the darker Fedora blue (or something darker maybe) so that the blue buttons pop against the background and don't melt away into it. I'm up for taking care of the anaconda artwork (I've already done it for RHEL.) If anybody wants to help lemme know! I'll post anything I do here for critique. ~m _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team(a)lists.fedoraproject.org https://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team

A Fedora Logo for Fedora related web apps
by Ankur Sinha 07 Sep '14

07 Sep '14

Hi, I'm adding the different web applications that we have setup at Fedora infra to gnome-software. For example, see this pull request[1]. Is there a better logo without a border that we can use here? (Different icons for each of the web apps will be better, but I don't think we have them at the moment.) For more information on web apps: http://www.thepowerbase.com/2014/02/make-web-apps-shine-gnome-3-10/ [1] https://github.com/hughsie/fedora-appstream/pull/138 -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur (FranciscoD) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Join Fedora! Come talk to us! http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Join_SIG
