Random info from the community
by Alessio 27 Mar '20

27 Mar '20

Hello. I would like to highlight some random information from around the community. - The new Fedora translation platform is up and running: https://translate.fedoraproject.org/ You can start translating, and you can contact friends and other community members speaking your language, and organize a team (if the localization team for your language is no more active). Probably, the more important bits until the release of F32 are the strings related to the website and the release notes. - Elections for Fedora 32 supplemental wallpapers is undergoing and will close on April, 30 https://apps.fedoraproject.org/nuancier/elections/ Only Fedora contributors can vote. A contributor is defined by someone having an account on FAS, having signed the FPCA and being in one additional group (CLA+1). - Fedora 32 Upgrade Test Day will take place from April 2 to April 6. If you have a spare hardware to use for testing the upgrade, or a virtual machine, you are welcome to participate. You can find more information here: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/fedora-32-upgrade-test-day-2020-04-… - A brief article from the Fedora Project Leader about the Fedora Code of Conduct (CoC): https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/on-being-part-of-the-fedora-communi… - April, 21 is the preferred target date for the release of Fedora 32 Bye, A.

[Fwd] Fedora 32 release notes are waiting for your contributions!
by Ankur Sinha 21 Mar '20

Here's an excellent opportunity to contribute to the Fedora 32 release, and learn lots about Fedora while we do it!! ----- Forwarded message from Petr Bokoc <pbokoc(a)redhat.com> ----- > Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2020 00:45:37 +0100 > From: Petr Bokoc <pbokoc(a)redhat.com> > To: For participants of the Documentation Project > <docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> > Subject: Fedora 32 release notes are waiting for your contributions! > User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 > Thunderbird/68.4.1 > > Hi everyone! > > Today's F32 Beta Go/No-Go meeting earlier today resulted in a no-go status, but > nevertheless, it's about time we started working on F32 release notes.

If you know how to use git and asciidoc, we'd appreciate if you wrote up > the release note and sent a pull request[2] against the main repo, branch > "f32". Your contributions should go into one of the files in "modules/ > release-notes/pages/", which one exactly depends on the contents of the change > you're documenting. Use the "build.sh" and "preview.sh" scripts in the > repository root to preview your changes locally; see the repository README for > specific instructions.

Spend 5 minutes on reviewing a quick-doc!
by Ankur Sinha 05 Mar '20

05 Mar '20

Hello! There are still a lot of quick-docs that were automatically converted from wiki pages that have not yet been reviewed for correctness. If you have a few minutes, please pick one and check it to see if the information is correct and up to date. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/ I've opened some tickets that folks can take up, mostly for newcomers. https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/quick-docs/issues There are lots of pages that I've not created tickets for yet. If you take one of those up, please open a ticket to let folks know that you are working on it. Honestly, most of these are so simple, 5 minutes is all it'll take! You'll get a cookie from me on IRC as a reward!! A whole cookie!! :D For any questions, please head to the docs channels/mailing list: #fedora-docs, docs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" (He / Him / His) | https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Time zone: Europe/London

Hi folks, If you are on Fedora 31 or can run a test Fedora 31 machine, please test upgrading to Fedora 32 to see how it is going. Please reply to the thread on the -devel list if you see any errors.
