RE: Fedora Insight theme packaged - what deployment blockers remain?

Perhaps I can be on IRC at the same time as one or more members of the design team to go through what remains to be done on the templating side of things? I think that templates are all that's left now... -----Original Message----- From: Mel Chua <mel(a)redhat.com> Sent: 22 December 2009 10:48 To: Fedora Logistics <logistics(a)lists.fedoraproject.org> Subject: Fedora Insight theme packaged - what deployment blockers remain?

Re: Fedora Insight update: the Websites team rocketh / will be taking back-end after launch.

I've also copied these instructions over to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight#Design, and am happy to move them somewhere else if there's a better spot on the wiki. I suspect that eventually we'll want to move this to the Websites space, perhaps after launch when we update the documentation as part of the backend handoff. --Mel

Fedora Insight update: the Websites team rocketh / will be taking back-end after launch.
by Mel Chua 19 Dec '09

19 Dec '09

Went to the Websites meeting yesterday to talk about Fedora Insight. Short version: We've got us some CSS help from Websites to finish up theming, and they'll be taking on maintenance of the back-end (FWN and Marketing will continue to own workflow and content) once we do the initial launch: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites#Fedora_Insight What this means immediately: CSS design tickets are getting worked on. (https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/query?status=new&status=assigned&statu…) I've cc'd everyone with FAS access to the theme group and everyone who owns a Fedora Insight CSS/Design ticket to make sure they're informed, know who the others working on the theme are, and can (possibly) make arrangements to sprint on IRC together; I'd suggest making sure that both the Websites and Design teams know when and where that work will be happening. We'll also have proper versioning for theme stuff, finally - thanks to Hiemanshu for getting us into git! (Hosting ticket = https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1886, but it's just been taken care of.) Hiemanshu should be posting "here's the repo / how to use it" instructions shortly, I believe. --Mel

Zikula Weekly Meeting
by Eric Christensen 16 Dec '09

16 Dec '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 We used to have a weekly Zikula meeting before the licensing issues brought us to a screeching halt. We are mostly beyond that, now. To meet the Insight time-line Zikula needs to be up and running in 2.5 months (at Alpha). That would also work for Docs as well. The following people need to be at the meeting: David (ke4qqq) Eric (Sparks) Mel (mchua) Simon (itbegins) Anyone else? If those NEED people could send me their available times I'll put together a time to meet. Also, we could use some additional packagers. If you would like to help us out, please let me know that as well and I'll include your schedule in my consideration.

Marketing Infrastructure projects, update 2009-12-15
by Mel Chua 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

Since a substantial portion of what Marketing is working on between now and Alpha (March 2) is getting infrastructure/tools up so we can do our work efficiently for the rest of the cycle, here's a quick update on our two big marketing-related infrastructure projects, also sent to Logistics for cross-team goodness (and mayyybe packaging help? maybe?). Project 1: Zikula This is for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Insight (which includes FWN, and will be largely reusable for Docs), and progress is being tracked on the logistics list, https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/logistics. We are currently (still) on publictest6. We want to have soft-launched on production by Alpha (March 3). Simon has an overview of the remaining work that needs to be done before we can be puppetized (http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/logistics/2009-December/000303.html). He's also updated the "how to set up a zikula sandbox" instructions, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_Zikula_sandbox. We are blocked by final fixes to the theme (design/CSS help needed!) which will then need to be packaged, as well as licensing issues with Scribite (http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/logistics/2009-December/000301.html) but it looks like the interaction between Fedora and Zikula folks is beginning to snowball (http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/logistics/2009-December/000302.html)... I'd like to see if we can get packagers + upstream on IRC at the same time to just Work Out these licensing issues at one go, because asynch communication is Very Slow. After those blockers are out, I *think* we'll be go for puppetizing. Project 2: Limesurvey This is for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_research#Infrastructure, and seems like it should be relatively straightforward (but then again, that's what I thought for zikula...) Robyn Bergeron and Ryan Rix are driving this from the Marketing side of things, but I'm temporarily stepping in for Ryan since he's afk for exams this week. As far as I know, there's only one package involved in this (limesurvey) which is still under review (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508817). It *sounds* from the comments like it should be done and ready for approval, but a reviewer (*coughIancough* is needed). In the meantime, I tried installing the latest SRPM from Eric (Sparks) on pt6, and failboated, details here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_limesurvey_sandbox#Install_t…. Once the package is approved and installed on pt6, I *think* that's all we'll need (we might want to change the logo, but that's trivial and I really can't think of anything else atm). In the meantime-meantime, because we need to get the FUDCon survey up yesterday, we're giving limeservice $10 to host a 250-response survey for us so we can start administering that survey tomorrow. That means we'll have a db ready to migrate whenever our limesurvey instance goes up, plus people with familiarity administering limesurvey software via the web interface (some of us, myself included, have used it before and know the rudiments). Questions? Comments? Am I missing something? (Is this helpful?) --Mel

RE: Fedora Insight: Remaining items
by Simon Birtwistle 15 Dec '09

15 Dec '09

I've updated the Zikula sandbox guide at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_Zikula_sandbox In theory, the first half or so should be enough to completely replicate the pt6 instance on a different machine. Its not too complicated as a process, fortunately. As far as I can tell, our major remaining item(s) is the template/design work which will require input from me as in places we will need some advanced template logic. We're very close, but we'll need some bandwidth from both me and the design team to get us over the finishing line.

I would be really interested, but also some of the zikula core devs will beginn iirc within the next months to work on the pagemaster project, because its getting more important for us. A Static Download url is maybe a problem. All Module downloads on community.zikula.org <http://community.zikula.org> are handled by our ExtensionsDB which creates always an individual package with the right language packs and other stuff that is needed (for example the core etc). Would it be ok for you when i package every release, upload it to the cozi and send you an E-Mail , so you can download it here: http://code.zikula.org/pagemaster/downloads ? This would be the easiest way for me. I have another question, I also work on the MediaAttach Module (a Module that enables an upload functionality to other modules), which seems to be quite interresting for you (Simon said something like this). And i have a ticket relating license issues of the librarys used within MediaAttach ( http://code.zikula.org/mediaattach/ticket/104 ) where David Nelly (seems to be one of your guys) is mentioning swf upload which has a MIT License. AFAIK MIT is opensource and compatible with GPL. Do you know why he thinks that there could be a Problem ? Greetings from Germany, Nicolas
