Marketing-trac: #126: Create a wiki page for magazine covermount information

#126: Create a wiki page for magazine covermount information ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: pfrields | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: F14a: Pre-alpha Component: other | Severity: urgent Keywords: | ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- We often get inquiries from magazines asking for permission to bundle one or more Fedora discs with a future issue. This is a fairly routine process as long as the disc is an unmodified copy of Fedora media (i.e. an official release). Some interaction with Red Hat Legal is required to send out an agreement to the magazine. We can speed up that interaction and the overall process if we have a page that tells magazines what they need to provide, and to whom, for a covermount agreement. Generally we need the following information, sent to the ''press(a)fp.o'' address: * The name (d/b/a) and address of the company producing the magazine * The exact disc(s) that are to be bundled * Contact information for the person making the request -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/126> marketing-team <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing> Marketing team for the Fedora project.

#125: SSSD F13 feature -- press blog entry -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: pfrields | Owner: pfrields Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: F14a: Pre-alpha Component: Feature Stories | Severity: urgent Keywords: meeting | -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- I had suggested this earlier to Robyn -- a press blog entry for Red Hat's PR channel (http://press.redhat.com) that would synopsize and point to our interview on the wiki. However, Robyn's pretty busy right now. Kara Schiltz from Red Hat's PR department is willing to publish something next week. I'm going to pick this up and drive it forward, my way of helping this week on something Marketing related! -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/125> marketing-team <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing> Marketing team for the Fedora project.

[In the news] Fedora 16 KDE Review: Gnome 3 vs KDE 4
by Rahul Sundaram 26 Nov '11

26 Nov '11

Hi http://www.muktware.com/articles/2976?page=0,0 "Unlike Gnome's ease of use, KDE offers many more configurations options which makes it complicated to be used by an average user. So, the lethal combination of Fedora and KDE can be 'dream PC' for and advanced user but at the same time the same combination is a recopy for disappointment for an average user." Rahul

More Video Tutorials
by Nitesh Narayan 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

Hi, As I was discussing with few of the community members on IRC about one of the thing which I want to be implemented . What I was saying is that ,what we want is more and more number of people to use Fedora .Even if they are not a regular user of Linux but if they want to try then they should get attracted to use Fedora. And this will be only possible if they find easy to setup their system and the utilities which they use. Now probably there are many tutorials available right now , but most of them are in text format and very few in Videos.What happens according to me is ,if a user is new to Linux and trying to setup something but getting problems then he can understand the solution of that more well from video tutorials rather that from text .It is also true that we can together put some number of videos but what we want is majority Linux users who often put videos on youtube and other places should start putting videos for fedora. I will love to do this job of making video tutorials but will be needing some help.As there are many fields of which videos can be made and it won't be possible for me to cover all those fields individually. So what I was thinking if anyone interested ,he can pick up something on which he can make tutorial and send me or upload it himself or if someone interested he can help me in the topics which i will try to cover.I myself will try to cover as much as possible . Please do share your views about the same whether you agree or not. There are few other things which I want to discuss but that I will do later . Regards Nitesh

Hi http://www.h-online.com/open/features/Exploring-what-s-new-in-Fedora-16-137… "With this version, the project has switched to the GRUB 2 bootloader and put more emphasis on the GPT (GUID Partition Table) for partitioning disks. With GNOME 3.2, KDE 4.7, LibreOffice 3.4 and kernel version 3.1, Fedora 16 also offers an up-to-date set of components; it also contains a whole range of improvements in the areas of virtualisation and cloud computing."

[In the news] Fedora 16: A GNOME lover's paradise
by Rahul Sundaram 18 Nov '11

18 Nov '11

Hi http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/11/17/fedora_16_review/ "For those who've already made peace with GNOME 3, or even enjoy it, Fedora 16 offers one of best platforms on which to run the new Shell environment. Not only is the default theme nicely integrated into GNOME 3, the underlying core has all the usual power of a Fedora release." Rahul
