Announcing Fedora Outreach mailing list -- please subscribe if interested
by Matthew Miller 29 Oct '14

29 Oct '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 Docs interested in becoming part of a new "Fedora Outreach Steering Committee"?
by Matthew Miller 28 Oct '14

28 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. I'm not quite sure where Docs would fall, but my gut sense is that Outreach would be the right place. The current FAmSCo group is generally in favor, but also in some ways that is the 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

This new "FOSCo" group would mirror FESCo, and to jointly represent the interests of all of the outreach-oriented parts of the project. I realize that there's quite a bit of engineering in websites, but it's also clearly outreach, since our web site is our public face on the internet. Not everything slices up into neat taxonomic boxes. :) The plan wouldn't be to cut websites out of engineering or infrastructure conversations, support, or representation, but to add that in the outreach side of things. The current FAmSCo group is generally in favor, but also in some ways that is the group which would be least impacted. So, what do you think?

Fedora 21 Beta Release Readiness Meeting. date: 2014-10-23 place: irc.freenode.net in #fedora-meeting-2 time: 19:00 UTC (3 PM EDT, 12 PM PDT, 21:00 CEST) This Thursday, October 23, we will meet to make sure we are coordinated and ready for the Beta release of Fedora 21 on Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Please note that this meeting will occur on October 23 even if the release is delayed at the Go/No-Go meeting on the same day two hours earlier. You may received this message several times, but I was asked to open this meeting to the teams and I'll also hope this will raise awareness and more team representatives will come to this meeting. This meeting works best when we have representatives from all of the teams. Also, there's a Fedora badge for active participants! Jaroslav

#4555: Use zodbot to send docs commits to #fedora-docs ------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: immanetize | Owner: sysadmin-hosted-members@… Type: bug | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: HANDWAVY-FUTURE Component: Hosted Projects | Version: Severity: Trivial | Keywords: Docs irc zodbot fedorahosted Blocked By: | Blocking: Sensitive: 0 | ------------------------------+------------------------------------------ I would like zodbot to send commit summaries to #fedora-docs on commit to any repo in fedorahosted.org:/srv/git/docs/*. This is a low traffic channel used primarily by those committing; a feed of those commits will help us during collaborative editing sessions. A format something like this would do: [repo-name] $shortcommit $fasname $commit-message -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/4555> Fedora Infrastructure <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure> Fedora Infrastructure Project for Bugs, feature requests and access to our source code.
