14:10:08 * lnovich is here
14:10:29 <randomuser> #topic New Writers
14:10:35 <randomuser> any new writers that would like to say hello?
14:10:40 <nils> hello
14:10:45 <randomuser> hi nils!
14:10:50 <randomuser> glad you could make the meeting
14:10:58 * d0nn1e is still digging in to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_Docs_Project
14:12:14 <randomuser> any questions so far?  confusions we can resolve?
14:12:48 <nils> hi! As I wrote in my mail on the list, I would like to be a writer. In the past, I contributed by translating to the german language. I am also still reading some wiki pages about this issue
14:12:49 <d0nn1e> still formulating the questions that I need to ask.
14:13:39 <randomuser> have you decided what to write about yet, nils ?
14:14:53 <d0nn1e> For example, I was curious about some of the bugs in the Red Hat bugzilla you pointed out, they do seem to be easy to fix, but not sure if I should jump into any of that until I am thoroughly versed in the basics of a new fedora contributor first.
14:15:36 <nils> not yet. is there something special that has to be done by someone? so I could be that someone…
14:16:33 <randomuser> bugzilla is a good place to start for both of you
14:17:16 <d0nn1e> oh good, I could probably use a walkthrough on doing at least one of them. Maybe we could set some time and do one together randomuser ?
14:17:17 <randomuser> be brave about it :)  Everything is in git; you can do a branch-edit-patch workflow and attach the patch to the bug
14:17:46 <randomuser> d0nn1e, sure - do you want to do that during thursday's office hours, or make some other arrangement?
14:18:05 <d0nn1e> hmm.. when are thursdays office hours?
14:18:41 <d0nn1e> Ill bet they are listed somewhere here in the wiki,
14:18:57 <randomuser> it's 14:00 us eastern
14:19:20 <randomuser> and usually runs informally all afternoon
14:19:30 <d0nn1e> Sounds good. Ill check in then
14:19:36 <d0nn1e> Or try to
14:20:11 <randomuser> the best strategy for new folks is to dive in, and communicate well
14:20:34 <d0nn1e> understood
14:20:45 <randomuser> you don't have to worry about being perfect, it's a process that we'll help you through
14:21:32 <randomuser> #Topic F23 Happenings
14:21:36 <d0nn1e> also please be patient with me concerning git, I've only used it on occasion, and that was for maintaining our departments password file
14:21:53 <randomuser> I think we're mostly done with the release notes ( stickster might have an update?)
14:22:05 <randomuser> d0nn1e, it'll be old hat in no time :)
14:22:10 <d0nn1e> thanks!
14:22:13 <randomuser> #link https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-23/f-23-docs-tasks.html
14:22:58 <randomuser> there's a go/no go meeting on thursday, and we should be publishing things as they are available over the next week
14:23:27 <randomuser> #info docs should be published as soon as they are ready, if you have something ready, do that or tell somebody
14:24:12 <lnovich> d0nn1e and nils - I usually have office hours on Wed - except lately things keep getting in the way
14:24:13 <smdeep> Hi
14:24:16 * smdeep is here
14:24:19 <lnovich> sorry I am late today - taking the RHCE course and need to get back to class  - very quickly #INFO - lnovich cannot have office hours this week unless they are very late in the EMEA day - office hours will be next week
14:24:34 <d0nn1e> thanks lnovich
14:24:46 * zoglesby is late, train issues.
14:26:16 <nils> ok I think I will get back to you during the office hours then.
14:26:27 <stickster> randomuser: I sent one into master, and merged to f23 earlier: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/docs/release-notes.git/commit/?h=f23&id=7db84e59
14:26:34 <stickster> So I think I'm good :-)
14:26:44 <stickster> I mean, s/good/set/ :-)
14:27:46 <randomuser> stickster++
14:27:46 <zodbot> randomuser: Karma for pfrields changed to 14 (for the f22 release cycle):  https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any
14:28:01 <randomuser> so, that's our schedule
14:28:21 <randomuser> #topic Guide Status
14:28:33 <randomuser> okay folks, let's talk about guides!
14:28:50 <randomuser> #action randomuser to review multiboot guide and publish for F23
14:29:08 <randomuser> ... I think it's ok with some minimal maintenance
14:30:13 <randomuser> Capesteve, anything to add ?
14:30:39 <Capesteve> not right now
14:30:48 <Capesteve> in another meeting atm
14:30:56 <randomuser> k
14:32:08 <randomuser> do any other guide maintainers have a status update?
14:32:33 <randomuser> or are there perhaps folks that would like to take on a guide that isn't being actively updated right now?
14:33:12 <smccann> got a list of those?
14:33:37 <zoglesby> https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/docs/
14:33:41 <zoglesby> most of ^^
14:33:47 <randomuser> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_Project_guides_table
14:35:27 <smccann> ok thanks zoglesby
14:36:04 <randomuser> quiet topic, I guess we can move on
14:36:12 <randomuser> #topic Outstanding BZ Tickets
14:36:17 <randomuser> #link http://tinyurl.com/lbrq84
14:36:51 <randomuser> thar be bugs
14:37:25 <randomuser> #info randomuser and d0nn1e will be going over how to attack a bug during thursdays office hours, participants welcome
14:37:39 * randomuser usually uses a shoe
14:37:58 <d0nn1e> heh
14:38:03 <d0nn1e> randomuser++
14:38:28 <d0nn1e> huh, karma not working?
14:39:07 <randomuser> it won't say anything if you've already done it, or it can't associate your IRC nick with a fas account
14:39:08 <zoglesby> d0nn1e: one per user, so if you already did it for randomuser nothing will happen
14:40:41 <randomuser> so that's bugs
14:40:46 <randomuser> #topic Open Floor
14:41:04 <smccann> what's this page about - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F23_Final_release_announcement#Fedora_Workstation
14:41:25 <smccann> went out on the desktop mailing list...not sure how it relates to the official release notes?
14:41:37 <randomuser> smccann, the release announcement is a press release type thing that marketing and various folks put together
14:41:47 <smccann> ah ok gotcha. thanks
14:41:50 <zoglesby> I would like to talk about GSoC
14:42:02 <randomuser> #chair zoglesby
14:42:03 <zodbot> Current chairs: randomuser zoglesby
14:42:25 <zoglesby> as in I think we should start thinking about mentoring a student to work on the docs publishing stuff
14:42:37 <randomuser> that's a good idea
14:42:50 <zoglesby> if I recall that process will start in feb/march and we should have something together before that
14:43:15 <zoglesby> that way if Fedora gets into GSoC we are ready, if not we can try and slip in under another org
14:44:17 <zoglesby> are biggest issue at this point seems to be time, if we can get a student to help for the summer and mentor them I think a good amount of work could get done, and they get $$
14:44:29 <randomuser> zoglesby, do you want to take the lead on that for now?
14:44:42 * randomuser will definitely participate
14:44:44 <zoglesby> works for me
14:44:53 <randomuser> zoglesby++
14:44:53 <zodbot> randomuser: Karma for zoglesby changed to 4 (for the f22 release cycle):  https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any
14:46:45 <zoglesby> that is all I have
14:47:34 <randomuser> anyone else?
14:48:46 <randomuser> sounds like a no
14:48:53 <randomuser> thanks for coming, everyone
