Specific hardware article
by Stuart D. Gathman 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

After about 2 days effort, I got my pinebook64 functional. Fedora 30 does not quite work out of the box. I thought about writing an article to maybe save someone a lot of time, but I can see two drawbacks: 1) don't want to seem to be selling a product 2) the product in question will be obsolete next year, with a new SoC no less creating an entirely new set of problems. :-) So maybe I should just put it on my blog. -- Stuart D.

Typo in Kernel Test Day article?
by Alessio 23 Jul '19

23 Jul '19

Sorry, I'm late. In the Kernel Test Day article it is stated that "The kernel team is working on final integration for kernel 5.1" Shouldn't it be 5.2? Ciao, A.

Re: Unexpected article
by Paul Frields 18 Jul '19

Restoring our group mailing list to the discussion. I think the overall editor concern is the article doesn't appear to have any Fedora angle, and mainly serves to advertise a tutorial on your site. That's not the sort of content we tend to look for. Is there a different article you could have in mind that would be more relevant to Fedora, such as exploring the blockchain toolkit available in the distribution?

Unexpected article
by Paul Frields 17 Jul '19

17 Jul '19

Hi, We received an article in the Magazine which looks like it hasn't followed the usual steps for contribution: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-magazine/contributing/ We also noticed the content seems to mostly consist of offsite links to your site. This is not the kind of content we usually promote. If you're interested to write for us, please get in touch and we'll be happy to help you get started. The article will be placed in our holding pen for the time being while we look forward to hearing from you. Paul Frields

Article draft
by Paul Frields 17 Jul '19

17 Jul '19

Hi Suruchi, The editors ran across your new podman draft. Thank you for the contribution. However, we had been interested not in this content, but rather in an article talking about using podman to replace docker-compose. We thought that would be more compelling content. Are you still planning to work on that article? Paul

Hosted WordPress for Fedora Magazine
by Jason Brooks 17 Jul '19

17 Jul '19

Hi all -- My name is Jason Brooks and I work with Red Hat's Open Source Program Office. Paul Frields asked me to look into migrating Fedora Magazine to a WordPress instance on OSPO's WP Engine account. I've set up an instance at https://fedoramag.wpengine.com and would appreciate your feedback. You can reach the wp console via https://fedoramag.wpengine.com/wp-admin. Paul asked me about the schedule for WP Engine wordpress updates. Their update process is outlined at https://wpengine.com/support/wordpress-updates/, but the TLDR is that when a new Wordpress version is released, WP Engine tests the update and then pushes it out automatically, typically within a few weeks. They send out a notification of the pending updates, and you can opt to defer these updates, or to apply them more earlier. If a security update is released, they push it out right away, and without the option to defer. We host a few other sites on WPEngine, and the updates process has been smooth. WPEngine does not update plugins automatically, although they just began a beta of a service that does handle this. I haven't tested that service yet. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Regards, Jason
