We'll likely need to involve some other people. 14:15:00 sparks: thanks 14:15:07 randomuser: EOF 14:15:08 sorry, sclark, i didn't intentionally ignore that 14:15:12 Carry on... 14:15:27 heh 14:15:30 randomuser: no problem 14:16:07 #action Sparks to help sclark with bz perms 14:16:47 #topic Release Notes & Beats 14:16:59 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Documentation_beats?rd=Documentation_Beats 14:17:02 the link again 14:17:11 a lot of beats are unconfirmed still 14:17:25 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Documentation_beats?rd=Documentation_Beats 14:17:36 and even if they are confirmed, you can still add to one 14:17:41 randomuser: Maybe we don't need those beats? 14:18:01 randomuser: did you send mail to announcements? 14:18:08 Sparks: ehh... I'd rather say we don't need the assignment column in the table 14:19:33 zoglesby: no, i have not yet 14:19:33 #action randomuser to mail announce@ about beats 14:19:33 mattdm did write about it in his weekly report for fedoramagazine, though 14:21:13 #action randomuser to mail various subgroups about beats 14:21:13 if you're also part of a SIG or other group, please talk to them about beats 14:21:33 that's all I have for RNs, anyone else? 14:22:02 Is anyone on the big data list? 14:23:15 zoglesby, you, maybe? 14:23:31 disregard, i am, and I will do what I was going to ask about 14:24:12 :) 14:24:12 .action zoglesby to do that thing 14:24:38 * zoglesby is trying to figure out how they want stuff in the release notes 14:25:14 fedora.next next, then? 14:25:14 #topic Fedora.next product updates 14:25:15 this is as much RNs as .next, but there's a slew of KDE5 reviews from this morning 14:26:15 * randomuser should really subscribe to the kde sig's list to see if there's any Workstation discussion happenning there 14:26:38 randomuser, not really 14:27:13 rkratky: hrmm... I vaguely recall something like "we'll work with the KDE sig" 14:27:23 maybe it's out-of-band 14:28:04 randomuser, yeah, but as far as i can tell, nothing much is happening there right now 14:28:06 hi.. good morning everybody 14:28:28 I need help.. can your help me in any questions? 14:28:31 hello ramul1087 14:30:05 ramul1087: not any questions; do you have anything pertinent to today's Fedora Docs meeting? 14:30:05 zoglesby: i think it's going to be as much a marketing effort as technical documentation 14:31:11 randomuser: context? 14:31:27 at least, that's how Workstation will play out this time around 14:31:30 It might be a good idea for someone to help jsmith with cloud IMO 14:31:51 I'm confident he'll do a good job, but he's a busy guy and there's a *lot* to cover 14:32:06 * zoglesby has no idea what is going on right now 14:32:42 uhm... i was just thinking this morning, zoglesby, that I don't know how the workstation product is different from just GNOME desktop 14:32:55 and I don't consider myself to be uninformed 14:33:42 randomuser: I would agree with the first part of that statement, the last part is your own opinion 14:34:13 mmm havent answer.. is mmm personal 14:34:35 I'm not confident about how to represent it in the RNs 14:34:35 zoglesby: true 14:34:54 ah, now I am on the same page! 14:35:11 randomuser: yes, I think this release notes will be a lot of marketing 14:35:12 perhaps more accurate to say that I think I'm up to speed with the PRD, Technical specification, and discussion on desktop@ 14:35:27 (sorry for the bad grammar) 14:36:02 I need install fedora in a server HP DL 180... but It have 3 TB disk in RAID 10+0 14:36:19 ramul1087: you're looking for #fedora then, for user support 14:36:40 The release notes need to explain what is going on in the release, and right now the question is really what is going on in Fedora so the sections about the products *should* be marketing 14:36:41 this is a meeting channel, you'll just get bored here :) 14:36:56 Ok 14:36:59 thakns 14:38:39 zoglesby: good point; that's a perspective that perhaps we should take by default 14:39:04 for the RNs in general, I mena 14:39:13 s/mena$/mean/ 14:39:36 No one outside of fedora understands what is going on (maybe many people in Fedora as well), so we need to make sure we are conveying that message in the release notes this time around 14:40:18 it sounds like we need a solid introducion to the Products beats 14:40:31 randomuser: I would agree with that 14:40:40 * randomuser adds it to the table 14:41:00 zoglesby: let's ponder that and hash it over next office hours 14:41:09 randomuser: +1 14:41:56 #actionitem randomuser and zoglesby to work out products overview for the release notes at next office hours 14:42:08 #action randomuser and zoglesby to work out products overview for the release notes at next office hours 14:42:26 #fail! 14:42:59 i'm adding it to the table 14:43:04 * randomuser hates wiki tables 14:43:32 #agreed 14:43:52 heh 14:44:52 I added mattdm as the developer contact, he won't mind 14:45:09 word, maybe we can get him to write some of it 14:46:29 okay, should we spend a few minutes on guides? I don't think there was much guide activity to speak on this week 14:46:37 * zoglesby has nothing more for this topic 14:49:13 #topic Open Floor 14:49:21 good morning - sorry, still doing daily SEOC briefings 14:51:18 good morning, jjmcd 14:51:52 randomuser: did we remove the follow up section from the start of the meeting? 14:52:34 zoglesby: not on purpose 14:52:48 randomuser: sure.... :) 14:53:19 fwiw, there were none this week 14:54:10 no, but it is easier for me to bug you about stuff if you are forced to talk about last weeks #action items 14:54:20 :) 14:57:25 noted :P 14:57:47 randomuser: the only other thing I have is that I would like to plan a few "hackathon" days this release for the release notes to work on unclamied beats. So that we are not doing them all at the last second 14:59:22 * adamw notes QA meeting coming up at top of hour 14:59:25 But as we are out of time we can talk about that later 14:59:41 adamw: we have 60 seconds! 14:59:56 bah, lag.... 15:00:00 #endmeeting
