Users should not have to add themselves to DocWritersGroup to work on drafts, for instance. This would be a great "quickie" research task for a new contributor, or someone short on time looking for something easy to do. -- Paul W.

New start page in homepage module
by Paul W. Frields 16 Sep '07

16 Sep '07

I've updated the homepage module, and the release-notes module materials for building the fedora-release-notes package sources, with the new start page content. (I am operating under the assumption at this point that people have been spreading the word about this, especially since my F8 test2 install's Firefox home page seems to default to http://start.fedoraproject.org/.) The 'xml2po' tool fortunately has no problem understanding XHTML, so I was able to import the page design directly for use in our translator-friendly tool system. The changes should be carried in the next POT update through normal channels. If we don't want this content on the file system, or if someone knows where the page content is heading, now would be a good time to let us know. :-) Contact me at the FDP (fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com) so we can revert the content to the old stuff in that case, which should not present a problem. The changes I made preserved the old strings and translations so it will not mean extra work for the translators. -- Paul W.

release notes
by Rahul Sundaram 14 Sep '07

Hi http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/7.91/Fedor… We should stop distributing the older release notes with test releases. It's very confusing. Rahul

* Mike "Ditt" Dittmeier * Weston, FL, USA * Director of IT Project Management * Spirit Airlines, Inc. * I'm looking forward to creating user and admin guides, that deal with the individual services usable by small businesses and independent IT consultants. My ultimate goal is to produce a "Cook Book" style guide for building a small business server from scratch. * Historical qualifications o I have been producing documentation for customers and IT Staff for the past 15 years. Examples include end user training for using new or updated systems, and even installation and troubleshooting guides for data center staff to be able to reproduce an entire collocation facility. o My primary skills have been in the IT Operations side: Networking Server installs and support Application install and support Monitoring systems Automation I have implemented source control programs, bug tracking systems, and even ticketing systems for use with Network Operations Center(NOC) issue tracking. I have assisted Quality Assurance(QA) teams by installing and configuring Load test systems (Mercury Test Suite) for evaluation system performance and application tuning. My primary job now days include supervising and creating direction for the IT Project Management staff. This has required many hours in a classroom teaching my staff and the rest of IT principles of IT Project life cycles, change control management. I have in the last few years begun learning to program using LAMP technologies (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP). o Skills? Certifications I have had throughout my career so far include MCSE, RHCE, and CCNA. I am currently working on my Project Management Professional(PMP), and RHEL5 RHCE track.
