Fedora front page
by Hrishikesh Ballal 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

All, Following is a URL for the prototype front page: http://www.hrishikeshballal.net/other/fedora/fedoratstsite/fedora-main-tabl… It is based off a design by Diana. I am working on a different design too but we dont think that it will work out as well as this one. I am not sure if we have decided about removing the wiki off the front page. I support that idea. I think It will give us a lot of flexibility. I also had a conversation with Diana about adding "Site Navigation" in the wiki (FedoraMain > Marketing > YouAreHere) . Diana feels that it should be on top of the site. I am going to try to put it right after the "search" box, to the left. I will modify the template and mail it to Seth. If you want to request a screenshot before we commit these changes, please let me know. If we decide to get rid of the wiki as a front page, and if there are no changes on the prototype above, we can use it the way it is. If we decide to use the wiki as the front page, I will need to investigate how we can implement this on the wiki and will need some help. I mailed one of the MoinMoin developers and asked if we can have individual CSS for pages. If anyone knows / has experience with it please let me know. Hrishi

Re: Brazilian LiveCD

> Fedora Core 4 LiveCD > > Created by SERPRO ( Company of Technology - Brazilian Government ) > > Download: > http://www.serpro.gov.br/arquivosdownload/Fedora4-LiveCD.iso > Hai Rodrigo, good job. I have just downloaded and burned it. There are things you need to specify, 1. by default its in spanish i guess 2. secondly it is with kde I wanted to change the language to EN and finally logout and login (just like with knoppix) but finally ended with a login screen asking a username and a password. Its 00:48 now. Im going to sleep. I will look at it tomorrow. last thing. I would be good if its tweaked to fit fedora core. by tweaking i mean, removing the linux-live text. plus the very last thing. It detected my hda1 as wrong fs. good job +1 you can include it here http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LiveCD or here http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DerivedDistributions/LiveCDs depending whether it is derived or not. one word (or a touch for perfection) for the liveCD wiki pages, I woould be nice if kde or gnome is stated next to the live distro.

Introducing #fedora-websites on freenode
by Patrick W. Barnes 28 Nov '05

28 Nov '05

The new #fedora-websites channel on freenode is registered and running. Stop in and drop a line! irc://irc.freenode.net/fedora-websites (Your client may not support the above URL.) This channel obsoletes #fedora-wiki, which now forwards to this new channel. After the holiday season is over, we may start holding regular meetings in this channel, much like the meetings held for FESCo, FDSCo, and Marketing/Ambassadors. The floor is open for suggestions regarding meeting times, regularity, agenda, etc. Very shortly, I'll be starting a schedule page similar to those of the other projects for us to start tracking our agenda. If you have an item of importance, please take a moment to add it. I should have this page ready within 30 minutes. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Schedule Thanks for your participation in the Fedora Websites effort! I hope to chat with you all in this new channel! -- Patrick "The N-Man" Barnes nman64(a)n-man.com www.n-man.com --

which bug to bug?
by Karsten Wade 27 Nov '05

27 Nov '05

Which bugzilla component should receive bugs for formal Fedora websites? FDP created the 'fedora-websites' component in response to a need to receive and channel such bugs. However, the Fedora Infrastructure group already existed. Should that have the component that receives website bug traffic? My main desire is to reduce confusion.[1] We've had some good beginnings using the FDP-based component, but I'm happy to move our group of bug responders over to the FI-based component. Thoughts? - Karsten [1] Speaking of which, anyone know how to remove or deprecate the 'fedora-docs' component in the 'Fedora Core' category? -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Content Services Fedora Documentation Project http://www.redhat.com/docs http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject

Fedora task list manager
by Rahul Sundaram 27 Nov '05

27 Nov '05

Hi We currently maintain several task lists and agenda times within the wiki. This however seems a job thats better done by some sort of a web based task list manager that allows you to set milestones, status, owner etc. Anyone have ideas on what would be more efficient? Some of the task lists for a example of the current method we have been following to do this. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraExtrasSchedule http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/FedoraDocsSchedule regards Rahul

Wiki format conversion
by Rahul Sundaram 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

Hi Is there a way to save a page in the Fedora Project as a PDF, ODF and html file formats. Currently if we use copy over text from the wiki, we need to reformat it to include full URLs or nice bulletin lists for example. Would love to just prototype and collaborate on Fedora content using the wiki and then save the final versio as PDF for hands outs. regards Rahul
