21:12:59 <ryanlerch> people seem to love the wallpaper posts!
21:13:12 <jflory7> Yeah, that seems like the big ticket item for this week :)
21:13:16 <MarkDude> design++
21:13:24 <jflory7> design++ for sure
21:13:26 <ryanlerch> next up is the pending posts, right?
21:13:29 <jflory7> Yep!
21:13:37 <ryanlerch> #topic pending posts
21:13:59 <ryanlerch> only one pending review post in the queue, the 32bit article
21:14:21 <ryanlerch> this one is kinda in a holding pattern until we get the go-ahead
21:14:36 <ryanlerch> but it is ready to go to be published when ready
21:14:52 * jflory7 nods
21:15:37 <jflory7> We'll wait for the all-clear from jzb on that one
21:15:48 <jflory7> I dropped the ball on that one this week, hahah
21:16:15 <ryanlerch> jflory7: nah all good, we all thought it was ready to go!
21:16:33 <ryanlerch> IMHO if you move an article to pending review, it could go out anytime!
21:16:52 <MarkDude> Charged item it seems. But the debate made sense to me, the explanations are needed, and well thought out
21:17:04 <ryanlerch> /AAWAY
21:17:27 <ryanlerch> sorry, that was just me attempting to remove my away status
21:17:39 <jflory7> ryanlerch: That's how I feel about it too. We should probably specify that somewhere in the notes for writing articles.
21:17:52 <ryanlerch> jflory +1
21:18:09 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Update "Writing for the Fedora Magazine" page with information about "pending status"
21:18:17 <jflory7> I'll do that right now if we want to switch over to drafts.
21:18:35 <MarkDude> +1

21:21:29 <ryanlerch> #info HDYF: John Dulaney -- https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=12742&preview=true
21:21:49 <ryanlerch> this one looks in good order for a draft!
21:22:11 <ryanlerch> just need someone to jump in for the editing when it gets put in needs review
21:22:55 <ryanlerch> maybe aim to get this ont out wednesday?
21:23:41 <jflory7> Okay, page updated.
21:23:47 <ridgemat> Just read through it - makes a really interesting read! :)
21:23:51 <jflory7> I know cprofitt said he had some in the queue.
21:24:04 <jflory7> I think Wednesday would be a safe bet for it but we should definitely follow up on it with cprofitt
21:24:13 <ryanlerch> jflory7 +1
21:24:14 <jflory7> I think he mentioned last week that it would be ready for next week
21:24:33 <jflory7> Tentatively, +1 for fitting this one in on Wednesday next week.
21:24:40 <ryanlerch> these are good -- having one every fortnight will be good, especially if we have a few queued up
21:25:08 <jflory7> Agreed. He has something like 2-4 in the queue from other people too.
21:25:15 <ryanlerch> #action follow up with cprofitt about the HDYF article
21:25:53 <MarkDude> +1
21:26:04 <ryanlerch> #info Call for contributors -- https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=12491&action=edit
21:26:25 * ryanlerch didnt get to this one this week. Hopefully i will get a chance this week.
21:26:43 <ryanlerch> we can aim for a later in the week publishing of this one
21:26:43 <jflory7> #agreed "HDYF: John Dulaney" looks in good shape for next week; if cprofitt thinks it will be ready for next week on Wednesday
21:26:52 <jflory7> ryanlerch: Maybe next Friday?
21:26:56 * decause knows the feeling ryanlerch
21:26:59 <ryanlerch> jflory7: yes!
21:27:03 * jflory7 nods
21:27:06 <jflory7> I'm +1 for Friday

21:29:31 * decause extra marks his calendar
21:29:41 <jflory7> This one is far-reaching, aiming for a publication in June
21:29:46 <ryanlerch> this one looks still pretty drafty
21:29:48 <jflory7> Right along with the final release
21:30:09 <jflory7> GIANT_CRAB is reaching out to a few people in the community to get their voices into the article
21:30:22 <jflory7> Definitely no rush on this one
21:30:40 <ryanlerch> jflory7: okies! lets leave this one be then! :)
21:30:44 * jflory7 nods
21:31:14 <jflory7> #agreed "what do you look forward to in f24" is still in progress and is aimed for a publication with the final release of F24 in June. Lots of time for this one.
21:31:25 <ryanlerch> #info cantarell inprovements -- https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=12482&preview=true
21:31:33 <ryanlerch> jflory7: thanks for the meetbot helps
21:31:40 <jflory7> No problem :)
21:31:57 <jflory7> Sylvia is working on this one too
21:32:03 <jflory7> I haven't heard any recent updates on it yet.
21:32:32 <ryanlerch> yeah, this one is going to be tricky
21:33:05 <ryanlerch> in my experience, sheenshots of how font rendering has improved can be tricky
21:33:16 <decause> lolz
21:33:31 <decause> sorry for the noise
21:33:32 <decause> :P
21:33:59 <decause> jflory7: clevis/tang are a hope-to-include thing
21:34:05 <decause> gotta circle back with nmccallum
21:34:34 <decause> #action decause confirm that clevis/tang are part of F24 release, work with nmccallum to get blurb for sylvia's article
21:34:53 <decause> also, timecheck, 50%
21:35:00 <ryanlerch> thanks!
21:35:31 <ryanlerch> so, we can leave this one be then! not sure this one will be ready for this week
21:35:47 <jflory7> Whoops, sorry, got lost in windows
21:35:52 <jflory7> +1 ryanlerch
21:36:05 <jflory7> Might be helpful to follow up on the list with Sylvia about this one too
21:36:17 <jflory7> Not sure if she is still working on it or if would be open to a new author
21:36:46 <ryanlerch> #action post to the marketing list about the cantarell article
21:37:16 <ryanlerch> #info copr the road ahead --https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=12293&preview=true
21:37:32 <ryanlerch> okies, last draft!
21:37:43 <jflory7> Oh, shoot, I was going to follow up last week on the list about this one
21:37:43 <jflory7> Meant to check in with stickster on it
21:37:49 <jflory7> Not sure if you know details, ryanlerch?
21:37:59 <jflory7> If not, I will send that email *now* while I am remembering :P
21:38:01 <ryanlerch> no, not sure about this one at all
21:38:08 * jflory7 goes to Thunderbird
21:38:21 <ryanlerch> #action follow up on list about COPR the road ahead article
21:38:35 <ryanlerch> okies, so only one post ready to go this week...
21:39:06 <ryanlerch> decause: if you see any newsy stuff, feel free to hit the list
21:39:30 <ryanlerch> the posts dont need to be big -- just after posts like the developer portal one i did esterday
21:39:45 <jflory7> I have two posts I have in a backlog that really need doing
21:39:46 <ryanlerch> #topic pitches
21:40:09 <jflory7> One of which the raw content is ready and done, I just need to weave it together
21:40:10 <decause> ryanlerch: can do
21:40:20 <decause> ryanlerch: would GSoC be of interest?
21:40:25 <decause> as a magazine article?
21:40:31 <decause> I wouldn't think so
21:40:36 <jflory7> Hmmm. It might be
21:40:41 <MarkDude> +1 GSoC
21:40:46 <ryanlerch> decause: yeah i think a quick post pointing to the commblog would work
21:40:49 <decause> we can do a pointer to the commblog if we're running low on content for the week
21:40:54 <jflory7> ryanlerch beat me to it :P
21:40:57 <MarkDude> It shows are activities go beyond just Fedora
21:40:59 <jflory7> Was going to suggest pointer post
21:41:02 <decause> solid
21:41:05 <decause> I'm +1
21:41:09 <MarkDude> +1
21:41:34 <MarkDude> Magazine helps showcase the many awesome parts of Fedora, CommOps blog being one
21:41:40 <ryanlerch> just something quick
21:41:59 <ryanlerch> we do try to keep community stuff to a minimum, but i think this one is ok
21:42:55 <ryanlerch> #info Pitch -- SSO Improvements -- https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=12766&preview=true
21:43:08 <ryanlerch> +1 for me, this is perfect for the magazine
21:43:34 * jflory7 is drafting this right now
21:43:41 <jflory7> Let's just do this one Monday
21:43:53 <ryanlerch> jflory7: awesome!
21:43:55 <jflory7> I can get it done in 30 minutes or less, recycle the featured image from before unless we want something new
21:44:09 <ryanlerch> jflory7: i think just get this one out ASAP
21:44:20 <ryanlerch> newsy ones can just go out, IMHO
21:44:26 <ryanlerch> no use sitting on this one
21:44:43 <ryanlerch> this is for the GSOC one, right?
21:44:46 <jflory7> Yep
21:44:50 <ryanlerch> +1
21:44:53 <decause> +1
21:44:59 <jflory7> Want to shift HDYF for tomorrow to monday?
21:45:04 <jflory7> We had one scheduled for tomorrow.
21:45:15 <ryanlerch> jflory7: ah forgot about that
21:45:17 <jflory7> Might mess the schedule up to have two of those ship same week
21:45:21 <ryanlerch> nah, leave it tomorrow
21:45:40 <jflory7> Ship GSoC Monday?
21:45:46 <jflory7> Also, +1 SSO Improvements
21:46:01 <ryanlerch> GSOC ASAP still, HDYF stays the smae
21:46:10 <jflory7> So two posts tomorrow?
21:46:29 <ryanlerch> newsy ones should just go out IMHO,
21:46:39 * jflory7 agrees
21:46:41 <ryanlerch> not really worried about loading posts with the smaller ones
21:47:34 <jflory7> Okay, that makes sense.
21:47:40 <ryanlerch> #action update the thread on the list about the SSO improvements post
21:47:52 <ryanlerch> moving it to draft
21:48:21 <jflory7> +1
21:49:04 <ryanlerch> next one is the whats new in f24 post for GA
21:49:13 <ryanlerch> lets just move this one to draft
21:49:19 * jflory7 nods
21:49:22 <ryanlerch> +100 from me on this one :)
21:49:23 <jflory7> One thing of note for that one
21:49:30 <jflory7> The URL for that *cannot* change
21:49:49 <jflory7> sesivany asked on the list for a URL to use for the GNOME Software Center F24 upgrade
21:50:03 <jflory7> That exact URL is going to be used in packaged software for F24.
21:50:18 <ryanlerch> #info f24 whats new URL cant change
21:50:31 <jflory7> ryanlerch: It's not official yet, but I deferred that to either you / stickster to make final call on it. My reply is fairly recent on the list, but if you want to confirm that with sesivany, that would be awesome!
21:51:03 <ryanlerch> #info Homebank article -- https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=12689&preview=true
21:51:09 <ryanlerch> +1 on this one for me
21:51:27 <ridgemat> I'm planning on getting this as a draft for review by next week's meeting :)
21:51:54 <ryanlerch> ridgemat: awesome -- so aim for a week after next publish date?
21:52:09 <ryanlerch> i think we pretty much approved this one last meeting
21:52:15 * ryanlerch moves it to drafts
21:52:15 <ridgemat> Sounds good to me!
21:52:49 <ryanlerch> okay, pictch queue clear
21:52:54 <ryanlerch> #topic open floor
21:53:37 <ryanlerch> any items for the openfloor ridgemat decause jflory7 ?
21:54:07 <jflory7> Do we want to do a final recap of the publishing schedule really fast for Meetbot?
21:54:07 <decause> when we do decide the budget, that prolly isn't a magazine interesting thing, is it?
21:54:43 <decause> ryanlerch: the F24 Beta Release Announce will be coming soon (not this week coming, but the week after)
21:54:50 <decause> I'll be working with stickster to make sure it is in there
21:55:06 <ryanlerch> decause: awesome!
21:55:07 * MarkDude thinks its relevant, otherwise other writings may fill the void there. Even if its a link poining to other place with Fedoran exaplaing things from official position
21:55:21 <MarkDude> Budget that is
21:55:38 <ryanlerch> yeah, budget is pretty out of scope for magazine IMHO
21:55:44 <jflory7> #proposed Friday, 2016-04-29, GSoC + HDYF: Gabriele Trombini; Monday, 2016-05-02, ?; Wednesday, 2016-05-04, HDYF: John Dulaney; Friday, 2016-05-06, Call for Contributors: Fedora Magazine
21:55:59 <jflory7> Yeah, I don't think it's anything that really affects the Magazine
21:56:09 <jflory7> If we wanted to write more about the open budget, that should go on CommBlog, I think
21:56:09 <ryanlerch> def a commblog thing
21:56:25 <jflory7> Same wavelength :)
21:56:28 <ryanlerch> :)
21:56:39 <jflory7> Also, did we have anything lined for Monday?
21:56:40 * MarkDude has question(s) after meeting. :)
21:56:40 <ryanlerch> thanks for the meeting recap there jflory7!
21:56:56 <jflory7> ryanlerch: Schedule looks good to you? If so, I will make it official with #agreed!
21:57:00 <ryanlerch> jflory7: hmmm, nothing
21:57:16 <ryanlerch> #agreed #agreed #agreed #yolo
21:57:33 <ridgemat> Does anyone know if there's a way to get a list of new applications that will be in the f24 repos that weren't in f23? Might make a good article to cover some new available software
21:57:34 <jflory7> We can keep it open for something last minute, if needed
21:57:52 <decause> #yolo
21:57:54 <MarkDude> ridgemat: +1
21:58:00 <decause> +1
21:58:12 <MarkDude> +1 to #yolo also
21:58:14 <jflory7> #agreed Friday, 2016-04-29, GSoC + HDYF: Gabriele Trombini; Monday, 2016-05-02, (nothing scheduled - open for publishing if an article is ready); Wednesday, 2016-05-04, HDYF: John Dulaney; Friday, 2016-05-06, Call for Contributors: Fedora Magazine
21:58:24 <ryanlerch> ridgemat: not 100%sure
21:58:29 * ridgemat also #loo
21:58:45 <ryanlerch> you could do a diff between packages, but that will show everything, not just apps
21:58:47 <decause> ridgemat: probably some kind of bodhi query?
21:59:19 <ridgemat> Yeah, I haven't used the repo tools / bodhi etc. much so I'm unsure
21:59:33 <ryanlerch> i was thinking of starting a series that covers gnome-shell extenstions
21:59:39 <ridgemat> Who would be a good person/team/channel to ask?
21:59:56 <ryanlerch> not an ordered series
21:59:59 <MarkDude> ridgemat: maybe Fedora-admin folks could help with parsing it?
22:00:17 <MarkDude> Or at least point in correct direction
22:00:22 <ridgemat> MarkDude: Sounds good, thanks. I'll dig around for an answer :)
22:01:27 <ryanlerch> okies! we done with offical proceedings?
22:01:27 <MarkDude> +1
22:01:56 <jflory7> ryanlerch: I think so. Going to have a preview of GSoC in about another 90 seconds :P
22:02:00 <ryanlerch> #endmeeting #yolo
