[PITCH] Tell us your 2017 Year in Review
by Justin W. Flory 08 Jan '18

08 Jan '18

Hi all, I created a new draft for an article I would like to schedule in the next week, "Tell us your 2017 Year in Review". I revived this from writing about two years ago instead of starting fresh, and I appreciate an editorial pass too. A draft is available here: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=19709&preview=1&_ppp=369e64d057 It takes from this post here: https://fedoramagazine.org/what-is-a-fedora-year-in-review/ Even though it is more "community-facing", my intent is to reach a wider audience (for example, in 2015, we had a team I never knew existed write an article and they attributed hearing about the opportunity from the Magazine post). Is it possible to schedule this in the next week? The CommBlog companion article publishes on Monday, so any time after then is fine. Thanks! [[ Also, side note, it would be super cool to get a Year in Review from the Magazine too, after our 3 million record breaker!! ]] -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

Pitch: schedule tasks using "at" on Fedora
by Shivkumar Ople 05 Jan '18

05 Jan '18

Summary: schedule tasks for later execution (ex: run a script) using at command. Description: being able to schedule a task for later execution, during the administration of a system is a crucial ability: to run a particular script or schedule any other job. Unlike cron, with 'at', we are able to execute a command or script. After reading this article, reader will be able to install at, configure, execute and manage the scheduled jobs.

Meltdown article typo
by Alessio Ciregia 05 Jan '18

05 Jan '18

There is a typo. It should be "bodhi updates download --builds kernel-4.14.11-200.fc26" and not "4.11.14-200", isn't it? In addition, for Fedora 27, even if it is not mentioned in the article, the command should be: "bodhi updates download --builds kernel-4.14.11-300.fc27", right? Ciao, Alessio

2017 Magazine stats roundup!
by Ryan Lerch 02 Jan '18

02 Jan '18

As stickster posted mid last month, we met our goal of 3 million pageviews in the middle of December, but now the year has finished, here are some quick stats from the year: * Total Pageviews for the year were 3,146,343 * Best month was November, with 389,554 pageviews * Best week was the week of Monday November 13, with 160,105 pageviews * Best day was November 14 with 43,140 pageviews * Our average pageviews per day was 8,620. The releases help, bump this up of course, but the averages for each month have been trending up in the latter part of the year: ** Jan - 7,666 average pageviews / day ** Feb - 7,470 average pageviews / day ** Mar - 7,624 average pageviews / day ** Apr - 7,552 average pageviews / day ** May - 7,003 average pageviews / day ** Jun - 6,639 average pageviews / day ** Jul - 11,826 average pageviews / day ** Aug - 9,057 average pageviews / day ** Sep - 7,482 average pageviews / day ** Oct - 9,345 average pageviews / day ** Nov - 12,985 average pageviews / day ** Dec - 8,686 average pageviews / day Anyone have any thoughts on our goal for this year? We have been steadily trending up since we started tracking stats on the magazine: ** 2013 - 2,641 ** 2014 - 666,601 ** 2015 - 1.9 million ** 2016 - 2.3 million ** 2017 - 3.1 million cheers, ryanlerch
