Cookies? 14:10:32 I will ifx that 14:12:03 Any thoughts on begging? jjmcd? I don't mind poking on IRC and email, but I don't want to be an abusive poker. 14:12:23 suehle, I think we need to. Normally, 14:12:35 I would just go ahead and cover what needs to be done, but 14:12:35 suehle: poke with a sharp object 14:12:54 we have a real possibility of flooding tue/wed, so there is a good chance that 14:13:07 I'll be spending the week dealing with the emergency 14:13:11 #action suehle to nicely poke lingering * beat owners 14:13:34 TU 14:13:56 .less natural disasters jjmcd 14:13:56 disasters jjmcd, have less natural 14:14:00 yeah, that 14:14:18 #topic guide status 14:14:21 I can try to write a beat about Fileserver, what is the deadline ? 14:14:22 #link http://rbergero.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-17/f-17-docs-tree-tasks.html 14:15:14 claneys: calendar https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Release_Notes_schedule 14:15:50 someone else may be able to offer a shorter answer than a calendar link :) 14:15:58 About the user guide. I was going through some of the chapters and a lot is hopelessly outdated. I wondered if anybody would be interested in helping me to get get it updated. 14:16:24 thanks :) 14:16:25 fnadge: What kind of time frame on that? I think I could help. 14:17:01 Unfortunately I'm pretty much useless 3/9-3/15 while I'm at SXSW. 14:17:07 sounds great, let's talk details later 14:17:10 k 14:17:11 sparks: packaging docs for install? 14:17:37 ? 14:17:43 as requested on the mailing list, if guides owners could check if I need to add their guides in transifex fedora-docs release. The potential list is there: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Shaiton/trans#Projects_under_the_Fedora_Hub_but_not_in_any_releases 14:17:44 :) 14:17:59 suehle: Yeah, That's not going to happen this time around. 14:18:04 ok 14:18:29 #action guide owners check their guides in transifex https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Shaiton/trans#Projects_under_the_Fedora_Hub_but_not_in_any_releases 14:18:41 #topic outstanding BZ tix 14:18:48 One more thing. 14:18:54 Sorry, I move too fast :) 14:19:08 about guides, yep you did 14:19:15 or it's just me 14:19:21 ask my ex wife 14:19:31 zodbot needs a .rimshot 14:19:31 About the style guide. I am working on a skeleton/outline for it and was thinking whether it might be a good idea to use the wiki page for drafting so more people can participate and mainly comment. 14:19:46 collaboration always good! 14:20:07 fnadge: +1 14:20:09 Once in a while I would scoop everything up, review and, if needed, edit, put it into docbook format and finally push it repository. Is that something you guys would be interested? 14:20:31 of course, in the case of a style guide, it may result in blood loss, but that's OK :) 14:20:41 Beats have to be writen for 07 March ? Oo it is pretty close. 14:20:48 I think it would be really helpful for newcomers. 14:21:07 Excellent, will get the wiki in place asap 14:21:26 great, thanks fnadge 14:23:40 back to the bz? 14:23:41 #link http://tinyurl.com/lbrq84 14:25:24 * chuckf did a couple of tickets over the past week when I had some free time just to learn the system a bit 14:25:59 high five for chuckf 14:26:08 better yet 14:26:12 .beefy chuckf 14:26:12 Have a Beefy Miracle, chuckf 14:26:13 when I put a patch on the ticket and set it to on_qa will someone actually look at it? 14:27:19 * suehle doesn't know 14:28:23 sorry, but I have to go now.
