If no status, we'll try to get a quick update and move forward. 21:06:24 #info === [COMPLETE] jflory7 Create a new ticket for F25 Talking Points, make mention of pushing deadline, using Flock as place to gather info / ideas === 21:06:29 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/231 21:06:34 #info === [COMPLETE] bkp Do some research into pass and help put together a draft for managing the passwords, share in ticket === 21:06:38 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/229#comment:9 21:06:44 #info === [COMPLETE] x3mboy File a ticket in the Marketing Trac to keep on top of ideas for a PDF / downloadable version of Magazine articles === 21:06:49 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/233 21:06:54 #info === [COMPLETE] jflory7 File a ticket for creating more low-hanging fruit tasks and start a list of some tasks that could be good for this === 21:07:04 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/232 21:07:16 Everything from last week was completed! 21:07:24 #topic Tickets 21:07:29 I complete mine just 5 minutes ago 21:07:30 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/report/12 21:07:32 xD 21:07:36 x3mboy: No worries :) 21:07:48 x3mboy: Smooth :) 21:07:55 x3mboy: Let's make sure to bring that one up in the Magazine meeting tomorrow with ryanlerch and stickster. 21:08:00 #info === Ticket #229 === 21:08:04 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/229 21:08:08 #info "Shared, secure password distribution" 21:08:11 bkp added his notes and proposed action items to the ticket with regards to planning out how this will work. If we agree on the approach, we should try to solicit a little more feedback from those who already have social media credentials and then move it to a formal proposal to Fedora Infrastructure team. 21:08:24 I was +1 to the plan in the ticket. 21:08:46 To whome should we solicit more feedback? 21:08:52 s/whome/whom 21:09:36 bkp: For the feasibility of it, definitely Infra. I think nirik was the one who gave feedback on this last time. 21:09:42 Anyone give it a privacy/security review? The process seems solid. 21:09:59 downey: How do you mean in terms of privacy / security? 21:10:41 jflory7: more of a case that we may not know what we don't know about any vulnerability of maintaining passwords in such a scenario 21:10:57 bkp: A ticket in the Infra Trac might be best, since they would be the ones to create the private repository. I'm not sure how this works in lieu of Pagure now. I know private repos are a WIP, but I don't know if that's the place we want to store a password repository, or... 21:11:00 maybe some obvious vulnerability that no one's thought about 21:11:40 downey++ I am very much eager to have someone try to poke holes in this. 21:11:40 bkp: Karma for downey changed to 3 (for the f24 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 21:12:03 downey: Right. pass itself is pretty vetted, but in my eyes, the tricky part will be coordinating with multiple GPG keys. 21:12:11 jflory7: yup 21:12:21 jflory7: Yeah, if they are committed to Pagure, that could work too. 21:12:29 * linuxmodder catching up on scroll 21:12:54 bkp: and unclear about the risk of storing passwords (ostensibly?) unencrypted on disk although the repo itself is private 21:13:02 Mhmm. Just need to make sure if Pagure is ready for private repositories or if it would be better to wait. I'd hate to go through the process for a private fedorahosted / cgit repo just for it to be sunsetted farther down the line. 21:13:12 downey: With pass, they would be encrypted on the disk. 21:13:32 jflory7: True 21:13:44 jflory7, is the 25 tp on pagure yet? 21:13:53 jflory7++ for planning ahead to avoid rework 21:13:53 downey: Karma for jflory7 changed to 28 (for the f24 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 21:14:00 downey: What jflory7 said 21:14:05 Though good point 21:14:06 I could file a ticket on the Infra Trac after this meeting, CC you both, and see what feedback we get. 21:14:14 jflory7++ 21:14:17 linuxmodder: How's that? 21:14:23 * jflory7 isn't sure he followed there 21:15:07 #action jflory7 File a ticket on the Infrastructure Trac for creating a private git repository for us to store passwords with pass, CC bkp, downey 21:15:09 jflory7, about the multi gpg not a issue have folks use the ones in fas or upload it to fas 21:15:40 jflory7, is the ticket you had on f25 talking points in a pagure repo 21:16:16 linuxmodder: The talking points go on the wiki - we can cover those in a minute. 21:16:37 kk 21:16:54 #agreed bkp's proposal seems like the best way of going about this – will follow up with Infrastructure team to get more technical opinions in regards to security and implementation, and finding the next steps to make this a reality 21:16:57 * linuxmodder caught up now 21:17:04 bkp++ for tackling the policy side on this one :) 21:17:14 bkp++ 21:17:40 No problem, the basics of the idea were already formed. 21:17:41 I'll make sure that ticket is filed *before* Flock too. ;) 21:17:43 #info === Ticket #231 === 21:17:48 #info "Create Fedora 25 talking points" 21:17:52 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/231 21:17:54 It's time to begin thinking about talking points for the upcoming Fedora release. Last week, we discussed aiming to gather the needed info at Flock and generating them after the event. It would be helpful to know who from Marketing will be attending Flock for comparing notes later on. Additionally, it will also be necessary for people to reach out to specific working groups or SIGs for getting more info too. 21:18:08 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_25_talking_points 21:18:12 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_24_talking_points 21:18:17 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talking_points_SOP 21:18:25 The relevant links for this cycle ^ 21:18:42 I did some of the preliminary work for the talking points, but it's mostly at generating content now 21:18:58 I'll be at Flock and definitely running with some notes for the week 21:19:16 i can volunteer to laise with security and docs 21:19:20 Hopefully can bring some back here to add to the talking points, although most of my talks I'll be attending lean towards the non-technical side. 21:19:29 linuxmodder: You're still involved with the Server WG, right? 21:19:49 yes but admittedly a bit out of that loop due to work atm 21:19:54 * jflory7 nods 21:19:58 I can s/docs/server if needed 21:19:58 I say you find mattdm and ply him with beer 21:20:07 bkp, nice 21:20:17 linuxmodder: I have my ways 21:20:19 linuxmodder: Do you think you would be able to at least figure out what's new and upcoming for F25 in the Server edition? 21:20:30 sure 21:20:39 I think we can depend on jzb for the Cloud / maybe Atomic, and possibly stickster for the Workstation. 21:20:43 jflory7: I could likely do the same for Cloud, if needed. 21:20:47 we have a mtg thursday anyway I can probe then and update next week 21:21:05 I've been working with jzb more on that end of things lately 21:21:34 curious why always starting on the wiki not pagure when wiki is getting phased out ? 21:21:35 bkp: One of my concerns is that last release, we didn't have much coverage on the spins. I'd like to definitely get some input from them if they respond back to our requests for info. As for the Cloud, if you and jzb are on that loop together, I definitely have no objections. 21:22:02 I'm going to try to help generate some talking points for the "non-technical" side of things, some of the more abstract / story-telling side that we're trying to factor in for the past couple of releases. 21:22:08 I'll hit jzb up for Cloud, and take on spins. 21:22:10 i can ping satellit on the spins he is active there especially soas and jam 21:22:22 And yes, I will definitely need to try to hunt down mattdm for some feedback for the F25 big picture :) 21:22:45 It would help if we could come up with an overarching narrative theme. The one for F24 was "It's a step in the right direction" 21:22:55 he is not hard to find he is tall skinny and forever chatting up cockpit :) 21:23:05 bkp: Awesome - and there's a lot of spins, but I *think* they all share one big mailing list, spins@lists.fp.o. So you might be able to knock out... five birds, one stone. ;) 21:23:06 Which, tbh, was slightly weak 21:23:12 * jflory7 nods 21:23:35 agree there 21:23:35 bkp: I know there was supposed to be a lot of big "prep" for the future, I think even with things in F25 really. I'd definitely like to get that angle in here. 21:23:40 mattdm tall? Whodidewhatenow? 21:23:56 bkp, mattdm is a 6 foot dude 21:24:03 jflory7: Yes. 21:24:43 bkp: Were you going to be at Flock this year? 21:24:51 I will not 21:25:02 jflory7: No. There was some rumblings, but not now 21:25:28 Okay, I see. I'll have to see if I can try to coordinate with some others or just catch minutes of talks / sessions for the technical grit 21:26:27 In either case, I think we'll have a lot of content to work with the next time we meet. 21:27:05 I definitely think reaching out to the Spins sooner than later would be a good idea because I think they have, traditionally, been slow to respond. I also don't know how soon a Spin might know what they're doing for the next Fedora release. But since F25 is branched now, I feel like there has to be some idea. 21:27:34 I think the KDE SIG would be fast to respond, but I don't know about others, like the Xfce / LXDE / etc. SIGs. 21:27:50 Notes 21:27:53 Noted 21:27:55 * jflory7 also thinks the KDE SIG has their own mailing list, separate from the big Spins one 21:28:22 Since we're this early in the game, I'm not super concerned, but no reason we can't drop a ping early on and get the thoughts in motion. :) 21:28:51 ? 21:29:00 bkp: Do you want to take an action over the next two weeks to reach out to the Spins, maybe Cloud? I say two weeks because I was going to propose skipping next week's meeting for Flock at open floor. 21:29:04 downey: Go ahead! 21:29:19 Sorry if I missed this somewhere, but do all spins always stay in sync with the main release schedule, or do some lag behind? 21:30:02 downey: I think it depends on who is packaging and working on them. For F24, if I recall, some spins had build issues and weren't available as alpha or beta. But they were available for GA when those issues were fixed. So I think it depends on the spin. But for the most part, they seem to usually be on top of things. 21:30:08 The Labs, on the other hand, can be a little more vague. 21:30:22 jflory7: gotcha, thanks 21:30:27 I know there is concern with the Jam Lab right now, since it's not available for download due to some build issue. 21:30:32 downey: Yep! 21:30:35 No problem. 21:31:24 #action jflory7 At Flock, take notes and work on compiling talking points / ideas for the story of Fedora 25 from a non-technical angle (notes, notes, and lots of notes) 21:31:31 jflory7, maybe I missed your reply but wy direct to wiki and not pagure repo with pagure being the new home 21:32:27 linuxmodder: It's mostly because all of the past years of talking points are on there and they've always been maintained. I think we could discuss moving them to Pagure, if that might make them more attractive to collaborate on, but I feel like for some Ambassador or Marketing types, it's easier to keep things in a wiki versus requiring git. 21:32:50 For some things like a release announcement, it makes sense, but I feel like for talking points, a wiki format makes more sense. But that might just be me. 21:33:16 and many folks like me HATE wiki editing 21:33:35 and hence are less likely maybe a co-located copy with weekly syncing ? 21:33:50 True, but I'd like to get a consensus of thoughts on it. You're arguably a fair bit more on the technical side too. :) 21:33:55 pilot that for 25 and maybe standard for 26 21:34:18 It would be worth following up on. Do you want to pitch it on the mailing list? 21:34:22 and in general mediawiki edit stuff is totally crap 21:34:31 sure I can tonight 21:34:42 Oh, ping, bkp: [17:28:59] bkp: Do you want to take an action over the next two weeks to reach out to the Spins, maybe Cloud? I say two weeks because I was going to propose skipping next week's meeting for Flock at open floor. 21:34:47 linuxmodder: this is why things like github have a web-based text file editor :) 21:34:51 linuxmodder: Okay, awesome. 21:35:04 #action linuxmodder to ask ML about a possible co-located talking points in wiki and pagure with weekly syncing 21:35:06 #action linuxmodder Pitch the idea of moving talking points for Marketing from the wiki to Pagure 21:35:10 #undo 21:35:10 Removing item from minutes: ACTION by jflory7 at 21:35:06 : linuxmodder Pitch the idea of moving talking points for Marketing from the wiki to Pagure 21:35:16 linuxmodder++ 21:35:29 jflory7: Yes, will do 21:36:02 #action bkp Work on reaching out to the Spin SIGs and Cloud WG for what's coming in F25 to help generate talking points 21:36:09 Alright, awesome. I feel like we have this ticket covered for now, then. 21:36:20 Anyone else have anything they want to throw in now? 21:36:32 bkp, I can help there too if you need 21:36:43 linuxmodder: Appreciated 21:36:56 for the spins at least cloud is a bit muddy for me 21:36:59 linuxmodder: Ooh, and do you mind if I action you for the Server WG over the next two weeks? 21:37:08 sure 21:37:29 #action linuxmodder Check in with Server WG for what's new in Fedora 25 to help generate talking points 21:37:35 bkp++ linuxmodder++ Awesome. 21:38:11 And I'll be open for collaboration on the non-technical points once I have time to parse my notes post-Flock 21:38:49 #agreed Will work on beginning to open contact with working groups and SIGs for F25 talking points; will check in on where this at our next meeting when the Alpha announcement will be just around the corner 21:38:54 Anything else to add here? 21:39:25 If not, that wraps up all the tickets for tonight. There was the one about low-hanging fruits, but I'd also like to save that one for post-Flock discussion 21:39:47 Tickets, going once... 21:39:57 Going twice... 21:40:02 Going thrice... 21:40:07 #topic Upcoming Tasks 21:40:09 LOL 21:40:12 #link https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-25/f-25-marketing-tasks.html 21:40:19 #info (1) Create Talking Points (due: Tue 2016-08-09) 21:40:24 #info (2) Email WGs to solicit bullet points for Alpha release announcement (due: Fri 2016-08-12) 21:40:30 #info (3) Fedora 25 Alpha Release Readiness Meeting (due: Thu 2016-08-18) 21:40:35 #info (4) Create Alpha Announcement (Docs & Marketing) (due: Mon 2016-08-22) 21:40:44 2016-08-22 will be a big deadline to keep in mind. 21:41:45 In the immediate sense, though, I think we're in good shape for all of these things 21:41:54 #topic Open Floor 21:42:07 Anything else anyone wants to cover tonight or bring up? 21:42:18 I also wanted to suggest skipping next week due to Flock. 21:42:25 jflory7 im good 21:43:12 croberts: Okay, cool – curious, will you be at Flock as well this year? 21:43:25 I'm a little confuse about Magazine meetings and Marketing meetings 21:43:31 x3mboy: Sure, what's up? 21:43:38 jflory7: sadly no I missed the deadline for talks but I hope you have fun :) 21:43:53 For example, the one about the ticket i open in trac i though it was for Fedora Magazine 21:44:08 croberts: Okay, well I'm sure there will be another year too. :) Pretty sure I caught you at some point at Flock 2015. 21:44:13 But it was brought to talk today in this meeting 21:44:24 yep you did :) 21:44:28 next year ill be there 21:44:30 So i'm not clear what we discuss in Magazine meeting 21:44:31 x3mboy: Yeah, that's a good question– 21:44:55 jflory7: When will we switch to a new meeting schedule? 21:45:09 jflory7: (Based on your poll?) 21:45:32 Since there is no a special group for Magazine, because it depends on the Marketing team, some things looks like are mixed in the meetings 21:45:50 x3mboy: So the Magazine is definitely a subset of Marketing, but it's large enough where we separated it into its own thing a year or two back. We mentioned it last week to file a ticket for, so we followed up here, but it will make more sense to talk about it when the rest of the team that strongly focuses on the Magazine is around. In this case, that will mostly focus on stickster and ryanlerch. 21:46:20 x3mboy: So since we assigned the action last week in the Marketing meeting, I followed up here, but we can and will discuss it tomorrow with the rest of the Magazine crew. 21:46:27 x3mboy: Does that make a little more sense? 21:46:41 jflory7, yeah 21:46:53 bkp: Yeah! So, I had followed up with some people individually, but I think we're at a point where the active and interested people have selected their times. 21:46:58 I'd like to start it after Flock. 21:47:06 Let me take a look now for the best times, as an estimate... 21:47:18 x3mboy: Okay, cool, glad that clarified a little :) 21:47:29 I think I made this page public: http://whenisgood.net/fedora/marketing/2016/fallmeeting/results/iwg9yt8 21:48:18 Oh, I think all of those times are in UTC too 21:48:37 13:00 UTC seems like the most popular choice 21:48:45 On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I mean. 21:49:24 +1 21:49:27 I'm leaning a little more towards that side, but actually, I would really like to get jzb to add times to that too 21:50:01 I'll follow up with him and maybe a couple more this week too. But I'd really like to move to the time starting the week after Flock. 21:50:14 I'll definitely make mention of this on the mailing list too. 21:50:46 Anyways, were there any objections to skipping next week's meeting? Otherwise, I'll go ahead and notate agreement, and then we close out for today. 21:50:57 No objections 21:51:13 #agreed Due to Flock 2016 next week, there will be no Marketing meeting on Aug 03, 2016 - our next meeting will be Aug 10, 2016 21:51:27 Okay, cool. 21:51:45 With that, I think we can go ahead and close out for tonight, unless anyone else has anything pressing last minute. 21:51:51 Open floor, going once... 21:52:04 Going twice... 21:52:06 Going thrice... 21:52:10 "Sold!" 21:52:17 Thanks for coming out tonight, everyone! See you in a couple weeks. :) 21:52:20 #endmeeting
