[Bug 627417] New: docs.fp.o landing page needs 'Start here' note!

It may be difficult for users arriving at docs.fp.o to know where to start, especially if they are new to Fedora/Linux and are unfamiliar with some of the technical terms. A note on the landing page suggesting a sensible starting point for new users could help alleviate this problem. Eg: "New to Fedora? You can try Fedora on your PC without touching your existing installation by following the Live Image Guide." The end of the Live Image guide helpfully points users to the Installation guide if they want to install :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.

[Bug 450331] New: lack of documentation on restoring from bare-metal (UUID problem)

I have found (see reference) that restore the root ("/") is not as simple as as just executing the restore command when running in rescue mode. With the current emphasis being place on use of UUIDs in both Fedora and RHEL, the whole business of UUIDs need to be better documented.

[Bug 595695] New: Direct links to RNs broken.

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Direct links to RNs broken. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=595695 Summary: Direct links to RNs broken. Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: docs-requests AssignedTo: eric(a)christensenplace.us ReportedBy: eric(a)christensenplace.us QAContact: fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com CC: stickster(a)gmail.com, kwade(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora Description of problem: * Previously, the release notes were located at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ * Their location has changed to release specific URLs. * A link to the release notes is provided in fedora-bookmarks. * fedora-bookmarks are imported by the browser only on *first launch* so as to not overwrite user modifications. The new bookmarks layout causes two problems: 1. Nobody filed a fedora-bookmarks bug so Fedora 13 (and anyone on F-11 or F-12 etc) will default to going to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ which is a 404. Since the bookmarks can only be imported on first launch, we cannot push an update to fix this if the user has launched the browser (which is extremely likely). 2. Even if I were to fix the bookmarks page to point directly to a specific release version (which again would take effect only if someone would yum update before launching Firefox), then if anyone updated to F-14, the bookmark would not change and would still point to e.g. F-13. So, I do not think that we should put version specific information into our bookmarks URLs. To solve both of the above problems, I believe we should try to do some User-Agent detection and redirection. Fedora browsers have an RPM NVR attached to them. For example: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; es-ES; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100517 Fedora/3.6.4-1.fc13 Firefox/3.6.4 This tells us that the user's installed language is es-ES and it's a Fedora browser, specifically running F-13. We should then redirect queries to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/es-ES/Fedora/13/html/Release_Notes/index.html If we cannot figure any information out about the Fedora release or language (or there are no relnotes in that language), I propose the default redirect should be to the en-US version of the latest Fedora release notes. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.

Resource Management Guide and Cloud Guide
by Noriko Mizumoto 17 Dec '11

17 Dec '11

Hi Docs team Japanese team is looking at to translate the above guides. I can not locate Resource Manage Guide in Transifex. Can you point where to find? For Fedora Cloud Guide, I can see; https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora-cloud-guide/r/all-resources/l/j…. Is this right place to download POs for translation? thanks noriko (2011年08月01日 00:11), Motohiro Kanda wrote: > 夏休みに気が向いたら、Resource Management Guide　と　Cloud Guide でも訳すか、 > と思いましたが、前者は、 transifex プロジェクトがない、後者は、 > https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora-cloud-guide/r/all-resources/l/j… > それらしいのがあるけど、中身がない、 > 状態です。どなたか、PO ファイルを用意してもらえませんか。あるいは、誰にどう、 > コンタクトすればよいか教えて下さい。 >

F16 Release announcement draft
by Ben Cotton 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Hey gang, I've written up a draft of the release announcement for Fedora 16 since I volunteered for it in the meeting today. The draft can be found at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F16_release_announcement I did what I could based on the talking points and the feature list. If you have any suggestions or edits, please feel free to edit the wiki page. I've never written RAs before, and it turns out to be kind of fun, so if you'd like to provide some constructive criticism on-list, or out-of-band, I'd be glad to hear it! Thanks, BC -- Ben Cotton

Release Notes
by John J. McDonough 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

The following languages show as complete: es, fr, ja, nl, ru, uk later today I plan to make an RPM so that when the user does the first update they have the latest Release Notes, and as many translations as possible. (The RPM for the final compose was due weeks ago). Are there other languages that should be included in the RPM, even though they are not complete? Also, a number of languages show messages missing from the PO file. However, it does appear those missing messages are translated, so I'm not 100% certain what is going on here. To see your messages visit: http://fedorapeople.org/groups/docs/release-notes/(language code)/(language code).log where the language code is the Publican code, for example: http://fedorapeople.org/groups/docs/release-notes/ru-RU/ru-RU.log If all goes according to plan, we will publish all completed translations around November 7 to docs.fp.o. Again, if you want something published that doesn't show 100% in Transifex, just let me know. Currently, there is one outstanding bug that doesn't show in the POT files. I anticipate a rash of bugs following release, so I am waiting for that to happen before updating the POTs. There will probably be at least one RPM built after release, and it will include any additional translations available at that time. Thanks for all your hard work.. --McD
