Introduction

14 Oct '19

I'm an engineer and have served in a variety of roles. I have written documents in a strict style where little choice or leeway was given, a loose general style where choices and leeway were broad, and styles in the middle. I have written policy, procedure, narrative, report and even fantasy stories. I am used to getting feedback from many sources when my writings are out for review. I have been helping in the Fedora Quality group for about two years. You can read my Fedora pages at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Tablepc https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User_talk:Tablepc I have an idea for an article. but I need help knowing what editor(s) to use creating the draft, how to submit the draft, and probably other things I need to know. I found the page for submitting article ideas, but I thought I should probably introduce myself and ask these questions first. Have a Great Day! Pat (tablepc)

Re: Cockpit article ready for review`

Shaun, this is another slam dunk. You are really good at these articles. Each has been very clearly written and has just the right balance of content -- how to get core tasks done without getting too esoteric. One thing I did in editing... and this is REALLY nitpicky... is using "will" for future tense. I find I can usually eliminate this in favor of present tense for incrementally stronger writing. For example, "this button will turn the screen off" becomes "this button turns the screen off." Again, this is a nit. I found your prose easy to read and top-notch. Really well done! I finished minor edits on this article, so it's ready to go anytime.

[Pitch] Setup a Wireguard VPN server and client
by Peter Maynard 08 Oct '19

08 Oct '19

WireGuard [1] is a new VPN that uses the latest cryptography methods. The article will introduce wireguard, provide some light background into VPNs, then follow on setting up and connecting to the service. WireGuard was designed to be simple to configure and deploy, which is why I think it is a suitable for the fedora magazine. Overall, I think wireguard is a good introduction to VPNs and can provide users with additional network security. The client will (hopefully) use network manager [2], and WireGuard will be installed outside of the official repo [3] (as recommended by the developers), though there is discussion [4] about the need for wireguard to be included into Fedora. This is my first pitch, what do you thing? A bit about me, I'm a PostDoc at a university researching network security on critical infrastructure. Kind Regards, Pete [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WireGuard [2] https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2019/03/15/wireguard-in-networkmanager/ [3] https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/jdoss/wireguard/packages/ [4] https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/modern-security-we-need-wireguard/14…
