Disabling BZ `fedora_requires_release_note` flag
by Ben Cotton 16 Apr '21

16 Apr '21

I intend to disable the `fedora_requires_release_note` flag in Bugzilla. These days, the Release Notes are mostly built via issues against the Release Notes repo[1] on Pagure. Removing unused flags simplifies the BZ experience for users and prevents the Docs team from having to look in multiple places. pbokoc said it's okay, but I wanted to run it by a wider audience just in case. I see one open bug with the flag granted and none with it requested. Five bugs closed in 2020 had the flag granted. One of those was a test bug and two were for Change tracking bugs, which get Release Notes issues as part of the process. I will disable the flag on Friday 16 April unless there's a good reason to keep it.

Hi folks, Someone referenced a document from here on AskFedora: https://docs.pagure.org/docs-fedora/ I've not seen these before, and they don't seem to have the same content as the quick-docs do either. Are they meant to be used (and are they maintained by the community: last updated 2018)? If not, we should look at disabling these so that users don't end up here. -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London

Proposed update of Fedora's default content license
by Ben Cotton 01 Apr '21

01 Apr '21

Hi everyone, I'm sending this to several lists that might care about the default content license. The Fedora Council is considering an update of the default *content* license for Fedora contributions to the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 4.0 (CC BY-SA 4.0) license. Currently, it is CC BY-SA 3.0. This license applies to content (not code) submitted to Fedora that does not have an explicit license attached. It does not override the explicit license choices of contributors or upstream projects. For more information about the improvements in this license, see the Community Blog post[1]. The Council will begin voting on this on 16 April in accordance with the Policy Change Policy[2]. To keep the discussion unified, please discuss this proposal in the Discussion thread[3]. As a reminder, the Council posts proposed *policy changes* to discussion.fedorapoject.org and communityblog.fedoraproject.org.
