[Fedora Infrastructure] #1227: Hosting footer
by fedora-badges 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

#1227: Hosting footer -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: mmcgrath | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 11 Component: Webmaster | Version: Production Severity: Normal | Keywords: -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- This is something we've talked about many times but it's not quite implemented yet. I'd like to put footers at the bottom of our pages that reference a hosting provider. For an example see: http://us.pycon.org/2009/conference/schedule/event/21/ We can't build it directly into the templates because different places have different hosting. What I'd like to do is have our templates import a js script (or something). Then we can deploy a custom js script to each host that has the relevant information. If you're interested put a proof of concept together on your fedorapeople page. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1227> Fedora Infrastructure <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure> Fedora Infrastructure Project for Bugs, feature requests and access to our source code.

Make x86_64 more visible or even the default choice
by drago01 21 May '09

21 May '09

Hi, Currently the website focuses on the x86 version of fedora and the x86_64 version is hidden so unless the user knows that he is searching for it, he will just download the x86 version. We should promote the x86_64 as the default choice with a visible link "For older PCs and Netbooks click *here*" (More information)". In F11 effort was made to change the default x86 arch from i386 to i586 to gain extra performance, but benchmarks that I have done back than have clearly showed that you gain much more from moving moving to x86_64. Not only that you have access to more registers MMX, SSE and SSE2 can be used unconditionally. Besides this x86_64 allows the use of more memory and memory prices are dropping significantly lately. (Desktops running 12GB of RAM is nothing impossible or overly expensive now). Please don't let this end up in ix86 vs x86_64 flamewar. Yes they are cases where x86 is the better choice (when memory and diskspace are limited, but that exactly is covered by "older hardware and netbooks") So please consider changing the default to x86_64. P.S: CC me when replying.

The wiki no longer distinguishes visited links with different CSS style

I was clicking links in the ToC of the latest FWN: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN/Issue172 and found that the visited headings were no longer visually distinguished.

I recently got the Linux Ubuntu and i was very satisfied with it.Many friends of mine wanted to have it and i did copies for them on other disks. I never thought that you were really going to deliver it. Thank you very much. I want to become a distributor for my country, as this is the only way I can thank you for giving me Ubuntu and i want to distribute Linux all over Mauritius. I don't know how to become a local distributor for my country, please help me, I should be grateful to you. As my school is specialized in technical subjects such as Graphic designing many students use Linux for designing.

It's very ugly at least for Persian and Balochi. I've made a test for its translation but outcome is too bad :D. Blurs makes it unclear.

Re: Websites Meeting Times
by Kamisamanou Burgess 27 Apr '09

This actually looks good. I think it would be good if each person available at a certain time placed a tally in the box(s) correspond to the best time slot. The one with the most tally markings would then be the best time for the meeting.
