Do we have any ETA on when we'll deploy the new spins site? It'd be good to do all of that long before the freeze for the final release. -Mike

Fedora Insight install howto, draft 1
by Mel Chua 14 Oct '09

14 Oct '09

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_Zikula_sandbox#Fedora_Insigh… I haven't tested these instructions start to finish yet, and the wysiwyg package that danielsmw just made isn't up there since we haven't deployed it on publictest, but wanted to give an update. It should be possible to muddle through an FI install and fill in the bits from this page, but it probably won't go smoothly (esp. with the skin). I would consider this an alpha version. Continuing to work on it during spare moments; if anyone else would like to chip in on "how to replicate our publictest FI setup on a fresh box" instructions, extra hands would be way more than welcome. --Mel

FI module update: zikula WYSIWYG packaged, needs reviewer
by Mel Chua 09 Oct '09

09 Oct '09

We are *almost* ready to deploy FI to staging. Everything's set packagewise (just got the javascript relicensing ok for ezcomments, need to put that in the code) - AND as a wonderful last-minute bonus, Matthew Daniels has packaged xinha for zikula, giving us WYSIWYG-fu from the beginning. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=528003 ...if we can get the package reviewed posthaste. I can't review packages, but will be working on FI after dinner tonight, primarily in #fedora-websites, if anyone would like to join the party in a few hours. Remaining blockers are at https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/query?status=new&status=assigned&st…, so it looks like I will be excavating my extremely rusty CSS skills and attempting to learn javascript... We're almost there! --Mel PS: Ccing the FWN folks who've been the driving use-case force behind this module.

www.fpo redesign status
by Máirín Duffy 09 Oct '09

09 Oct '09

Hi, The original due date for the finished www.fpo mockups is this Friday. I'm on a business trip this week and it's quite clear to me now I just won't be able to make the deadline. :( Would it be okay if I tried for next Friday, Oct. 2? It should still leave 2 weeks for HTML/CSS on those pages, and the spins mocks have been done for a week so it shouldn't hold up Hiemanshu & co. since they still have those to work on. For reference our schedule is: * DONE: #Requirements gathering * DONE: #First design mockups * DONE Aug 21 - Aug 28 : gather feedback, determine metrics, usability testing for spins.fp.o (mizmo) * DONE Aug 21 - Sep 04 : gather feedback, determine metrics, usability testing for get.fp.o (mizmo) * DONE Aug 28 - Sep 20 : Final design mockups for spins.fp.o (mizmo) * Sep 04 - Sep 27 : Final design mockups for get.fp.o (mizmo) * Sep 20 - Oct 20: convert spins.fp.o and get.fp.o to html/css (hiemanshu) * Oct 20 : get spins.fp.o and get.fp.o onto infrastructure (ricky) ~m (schedule from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Website_redesign_2009)

Fedora 12 Final Release Date Rescheduled to 2009-11-17
by John Poelstra 08 Oct '09

08 Oct '09

Update from the previous announcement on changes to the Fedora 12 schedule described here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-announce/2009-October/msg00003… The deadline affecting the data center move which was putting a final release date if 2009-11-17 into question has been extended. As a result we are now able to go forward with the original decision from the 2009-10-05 Release Engineering meeting to move the final release date of Fedora 12 to 2009-11-17. All of the schedules have been updated to reflect these changes. Key milestones: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/12 Detailed team schedules and ics (calendar) files: http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-12/ John

Fedora 12 Beta Release Rescheduled to 2009-10-20
by John Poelstra 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/12/Schedule At the Release Engineering meeting today https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-October/msg00244.html it was noted that we still do not have a beta RC composed because a few blocker bugs remain. The decision was made to move the Fedora 12 Beta Release date to 2009-10-20 instead of its scheduled date of 2009-10-13 (one week from Tuesday). The original intention was also to move the final release date of Fedora 12 to 2009-11-17, but that decision has been deferred until Thursday while the Infrastructure team researches some issues related to an upcoming data center move. The next meeting to determine the final release date for Fedora 12 will be this Thursday, 2009-10-08 at 18:00 UTC (2 PM EDT) in #fedora-meeting. After that meeting all of the detailed Fedora 12 team schedules will be fully updated to reflect the plan of record. REMINDER: we are in and will remain in FINAL FREEZE for Fedora 12. This is not a new opportunity for more time to continue development work or squeeze more bug fixes into Fedora 12. A new branch is already open where this work can continue for Fedora 13. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Beta_Freeze_Policy John

by John Poelstra 05 Oct '09

05 Oct '09

When: 2009-10-07 at 19:00 UTC (3 PM EDT/12 PM PDT) Where: #fedora-meeting on freenode ? (see below) Next Wednesday we are scheduled to have the Release Readiness meeting for the Fedora 12 Beta. I'm hoping representatives from each of the teams will be able to attend. Please discuss with your teams to see if there are any issues they would like to bring forward. This cross team meeting is held to coordinate and discuss release day issues in real time and to make sure we are ready for a smooth release day. The following list shows the people that represented these teams in past releases. If you cannot attend or no longer wish to represent your team please coordinate and alternate. Ambassadors -- David Nalley Design -- Máirín Duffy Documentation -- Eric Christensen FESCo -- Jon Stanley Fedora Engineering Manager -- Tom "Spot" Callaway Fedora Project Leader -- Paul Frields Infrastructure -- Mike McGrath Marketing -- Mel Chua Quality -- James Laska Release Engineering -- Jesse Keating Translation -- Noriko Mizumoto Websites -- Ricky Zhou IMPORTANT: as a change from previous meetings, unless someone objects I would like to try having this meeting on IRC this time. We seem to have gotten into a pretty good routine with this meeting that I'm wondering if the advantages of real time voice are not needed as much any more. I will send another reminder on Tuesday. Thanks, John

Unblocking pagemaster and filterutil module package reviews
by Mel Chua 30 Sep '09

30 Sep '09

Both of these packages should be ready for review. Pagemaster: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=519483 (and https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/65#comment:3) Filterutil: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=526595 (and https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/25) I'll be the maintainer of these packages for now so that Toshio can proceed with the reviews. Rahul is, however, planning on stepping in later and re-taking maintainership from me. This is based on yesterday's Marketing meeting, http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2009-09-29/fedora-meeting.2… starting at 20:25:08. Holler if there's anything else I can do to help unblock this. --Mel PS: We're almost done with packaging for the F12 Fedora Insight release - ezComments is waiting for Dustin Diaz to reply; https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=523343 (and https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/36) and I believe the other module we have left to tackle before launch is Something For WYSIWYG, and that some wonderful Docs people have already been doing this, but do not know who's doing that and what's up with it... if anyone reading this knows, can you ping me? Else I'll dig around the next chance I have to get a look at this.
