by Rashadul Islam 12 Dec '12

12 Dec '12

Dear logistics: i have prepared the following Latex template while practice one of my task. I feel the Press Release Template might help the whole community to make their press release for their events or related. The preview will be found at: https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/0/02/Fedorarelease.pdf The complete template could be found at the following location https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:PressReleaseTemplate.tex and *.zip file at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:FedoraPressRelease.zip i would like to thank Ianweller to make the wiki and first press release template( http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_write_a_Fedora_press_release). Hope the page will look more good than it is now! I am looking forward............. @ I Rashadul 0x5557BFAC

Insight and Fedora Weekly News
by Ruth Suehle 01 Dec '12

A group of interested people gathered today to discuss breathing some new life into Fedora Weekly News (minutes below). What we concluded was that we'd actually like to breathe some life into Insight and for FWN to become an arm of that. To expound, here's the proposal: - suehle, jbrooks, and iambryan have volunteered as editors - We'd like to expand Insight to be more blog, web-magazine-style with: - Short, informative content like you might think of FWN for - Longer form stories, interviews, and articles - The technical content that Fedora used to create to some extent for Red Hat Magazine (which is in high demand but no longer exists) - Cultivated content from Planet - The content that Insight was already meant for, like Board meeting minutes or announcements - Fedora Weekly News would then become the weekly email newsletter of highlights from what had been published on Insight that week. - We'd like to see at least two writers/cultivators-of-content per beat What we're looking for now is for someone to shout, "good idea!", "bad idea!", or "I was already halfway through with something like that!" before we continue down the path. "I'd like to help with a beat!" is also a good answer. :-) Thanks!

Was just chatting with nirik on IRC about the feasibility of WordPress. He says it was not a joy to maintain last time we tried it. But if that's the preferred option, letting Wordpress.com host it and map to Insight costs a whopping $13/year, which I imagine we could find in the budget. It also massively simplifies user management, IMO, as a current editor of both WP and Drupal sites. Ruth
