[magazine] New author introduction
by Stuart Brady 20 Jun '17

20 Jun '17

Hello Editorial Board, I'd like to start writing some articles for the magazine so here is my introduction. My name is Stuart Brady and I'm an English language arts and social studies teacher, currently working in the international sector in Tokyo, Japan. I'm not a super technical user of Fedora but for the last 18 months computing has become one of my main hobbies (I'm also a pretty obsessive runner). In that time, I've taught myself a little programming and built my own "janky" personal website and blog <https://stubrady78.github.io/>. I've also been running Fedora Linux on my personal/work laptop since last May and have become a real convert to the whole open source ethos. I've tried to educate myself about the system by reading your magazine, surfing the net when I have technical questions and working through How Linux Works <https://www.nostarch.com/howlinuxworks2> (recommended on the Linux Journey <https://linuxjourney.com/> website). Oh, and I also attended the Open Source Summit <http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/open-source-summit-japan/program/s…> in Tokyo last week to give me a better understanding of the industry more generally. At this stage of my Linux development, I feel I can write some reasonable articles for users a bit like me so I'd like to make myself available. When I initially mailed Paul last week, he mentioned that I might get some help with things to write about (at least in the beginning). This would be perfect! Then I can get on with researching the topic, before producing the copy for editing. And, obviously, I'm more than happy to help editing the contributions of others as often as needed. As far as time commitments go, I'm willing to put a fair bit of effort (not sure about number of hours per week) into the research/writing/editing the articles as it will be a good learning experience. One caveat, however, is that I won't be able to regularly attend the online board meetings. There's a wicked time difference between Tokyo and the US and it would be miserable adding a predawn meeting to my current family/work schedule. Is that okay? Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts and have a nice day. Regards, Stuart Brady

[magazine] Pitch: backing up with duplicity/duply/deja-dup
by Link Dupont 20 Jun '17

20 Jun '17

Hi everyone! I had a thought for an article series, so I wrote up a pitch (it's in the Pitches category in WP too). Here's the text, in case the preview links don't work. -- Summary: A 3-part series on backing up with duplicity, duply, and deja-dup Description: I recently lost a large amount of data to a RAID enclosure mistakenly configured as RAID0, and not backed up. That got me thinking about an article series about backing up. Article 1: duplicity - duplicity is the basic tool that the following two are built on, so I want to start at the basics. duplicity is built with rsync, and has connectors to back up to local disks as well as S3 buckets. I'll target an S3 bucket as my backup demo work, since off-site and redundancy are two tenants of good backups. So starting with duplicity, we'll walk through how to successfully back up ~/Documents (and something big like ~/Photos) with just duplicity. Article 2: duply - duply builds on duplicity, mainly by creating backup profiles that save all the commandline settings necessary to invoke duplicity. This article would re-factor the work done in Article 1 to use duply profiles instead. This article would also use duply to back up a server, since the profiles can easily be run from within cron jobs. Article 3: deja-dup - deja-dup is a GNOME utility that, like duply, stores profiles around duplicity. It makes creating backup profiles super easy, and runs them on a regular frequency. This article would refactor the work done in Article 1, using some guides from Article 2, to backup ~/Documents and ~/Photos with deja-dup. If possible, I would like to show how deja-dup will pick up the backups created from within Article 1 using just duplicity; I'll need to mostly write both articles to make sure that's the case.

I was adding the featured image and forgot to close the tab before bed. On the plus side, we have a featured image. :) -- Drat you Ryan! That's how I lost my images in it ;) They are still in the WordPress gallery jobby. There's the new blivet UI and Fedora Media Writer we'll probably want to add. At the hospital with my daughter this morning for a procedure so I won't be about till later. Can someone please add them back in? James
