Hi William, Are you able to work on that Openbox post over the weekend? We are hoping to publish it next week if you can help figure out the instructions to make it work properly on a fresh install. -- Paul W.

Pitch submission for DIY Digital Jukebox Project
by Shaun Assam 01 Dec '17

01 Dec '17

I would like to pitch a DIY project to show readers how they can recycle their old computers into a dedicated digital jukebox. The articles will be in three parts, one article a week, and could be published before the holidays in December. This is based on the suggestion for a December audio theme as a Fedora Magazine Editorial - thanks Eduard. The articles will use the latest Fedora Server with minimal installation for the OS. Unfortunately, the reader would need to use rpmfusion to install software like MPD and faad2 which are not included in the official Fedora repositories. Would there be any objections to this? 1. Audio Realtime Priority: - How realtime processing works and achieving bit-perfect playback by directing audio processes from source straight-to hardware using ALSA - How to configure RT priority to achieve low-latency audio performance by creating a file in /etc/security/limits.d/ - Basic command-line utilities for displaying info about audio hardware and playback (i.e. alsamixer and aplay) - Testing for bit-accurate playback with 'cat /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/hw_params' 2. Installing and Configuring MPD (Music Player Daemon): - Explaining what MPD is and how it works - Installing MPD - Configuring MPD - Connecting and playing music with ncmpcpp 3. MPD GUI Clients: - Basic instructions for installing and using popular MPD GUI clients: a) Cantata b) gmpc - Controlling MPD from a smartphone (finding apps in App Store and Google Play) Maybe the DIY projects can be a monthly/quarterly theme? I'm hoping this idea will encourage and inspire other writers, and invite readers to submit ideas for DIY projects they might like to see. Regards, Shaun Assam IRC: sassam

Pitch: Fedora 27 Atomic Host Availability on Multiple Architectures
by Sinny Kumari 01 Dec '17

01 Dec '17

Hi all, I have written a draft proposal on Fedora 27 Atomic Host availability on Multiple Architectures. Preview of post is available at https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=19272&preview=true . This post is intended to be published once Fedora 27 GA release is available. Note: Download links for Atomic Host ISO and cloudImage in post will be updated once we have finalized url- Main motivation towards publishing this post in Fedora Magazine is to reach out to more users who would be interested in using Atomic Host on non-x86_64 platforms. Also, sending a positive message that Fedora cares equally about Multiple Architectures :) Thanks in advance for reviewing it. Let me know if it fits into Fedora Magazine post. Thanks, Sinny Kumari -- http://sinny.io/

Should we move the meeting time?
by Paul W. Frields 29 Nov '17

Having our meeting ping-pong weekly between morning/night is not helping our attendance. Can we settle on doing just the US morning time, i.e. 8:00am Wednesday US-Eastern time? -- Paul W.

Thank you Metthew, Yes this would very much work for me. So can I start writing the 1st article about V-rep and installing it on Fedora? And the next article can be about it features, dependencies, etc and working with vrep using any language on fedora.

desire to publish a post

Hello, I am a happy Fedora user and I like to check out the magazine every day for news in the world of free software. I am also developer of the Argbash project, which recently made its way to Fedora. As I think that it is an incredibly useful piece of software, I would like to inform readers how it can positively influence their lives if they write non-trivial bash scripts. I have put together an article stub, so you can check it out and tell me whether I can carry on. I look forward to your feedback! Best regards, Matěj Týč Project URL: https://argbash.io Project source code: https://github.com/matejak/argbash Article stub: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=19340
