13:00:25 * stickster waits to see who surfaces on release week :-)
13:03:09 <stickster> Hmm, could be a lonely meeting :-(
13:04:59 * cverna waves
13:05:15 <stickster> Hi cverna!
13:05:43 <cverna> stickster: you are not alone :)
13:06:00 * stickster goes ahead and maps out some info
13:06:11 <stickster> #topic Release day and last week's stats
13:06:25 <stickster> #info F27 GA release day -- over 43K pageviews in one day, best ever!
13:06:43 <stickster> #info old ryanlerch article on FreeOTP also hit Hacker News and contributed
13:06:53 <cverna> \o/
13:07:10 <stickster> #info today is already almost 20K pageviews as well, 2x the normal daily
13:07:41 <cverna> Do we have stats per page ? or only global ?
13:07:51 <stickster> #info last week: over 62K pageviews, totally respectable too
13:07:58 <stickster> We have stats per page and per day
13:08:19 <stickster> We run on WordPress, so this is all via the standard "site stats" counters
13:08:19 <cverna> cool
13:09:09 * cverna is not very familiar with WordPress
13:09:43 <stickster> Very cool and mature FOSS!
13:10:51 <stickster> #topic Upcoming release articles
13:11:05 <stickster> #info F27 Atomic multiarch is supposed to publish tomorrow
13:11:28 <stickster> #info F27 Atomic roundup article to publish next week, date TBD (shortly)
13:12:53 <stickster> #topic Pending Review
13:13:01 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=pending&post_type=post
13:13:17 <stickster> Yes! We have a HDYF from Charles
13:14:09 <stickster> Seeing as how we have four articles this week thus far, and because ryanlerch won't have me around next week to help, I would propose Friday off, then publish this next week
13:14:27 <stickster> #agreed HDYF is pre-approved, just needs editing
13:14:49 <stickster> #action stickster edit HDYF to help out Ryan in advance
13:15:05 <stickster> #topic Drafts for review
13:15:11 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=post
13:15:33 <cverna> how many articles per weeks to you try to have ?
13:16:06 <stickster> #info --- openbox ---
13:16:21 <stickster> cverna: we try to publish 3 articles a week minimum... Monday, Wednesday, Friday, usually at 8 UTC
13:17:36 <cverna> ok
13:18:33 <stickster> #info Author overwrote all the previous editing work and will need to fix before this can be finished and published
13:18:49 <stickster> #action stickster email author/list for fixes
13:19:50 <stickster> #info --- markdown doc ---
13:19:53 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=19402&action=edit
13:20:31 <stickster> this one wasn't pitched or approved yet, and the topic doesn't look very relevant to Fedora specifically, more like a general blog topic
13:22:09 <stickster> #action stickster email author/list to suggest moving this to a personal blog for the Planet
13:23:58 <stickster> #topic Pitches for review
13:24:14 <stickster> #info --- Redis on Fedora ---
13:24:18 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=19363&preview=true
13:24:29 <stickster> #info Pitch approved
13:24:36 <stickster> #action stickster email author to write draft
13:26:09 <stickster> #info --- argbash ---
13:26:25 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=19340&preview=true
13:27:03 <stickster> This looks like a great article since the package is now in Fedora too
13:27:24 <stickster> #info Pitch approved
13:27:31 <stickster> #action stickster email author/list to write draft
13:31:43 <stickster> #info --- DIY digital jukebox ---
13:31:46 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=19277&preview=true
13:32:19 <stickster> #info This was already approved, suggest breaking into two articles since the first piece (realtime audio) is useful on its own, and could be linked from other articles later
13:34:06 <stickster> cverna: sorry you showed up for the most boring Magazine meeting ever :-D
13:34:36 <stickster> #topic Schedule for next week
13:34:59 <cverna> stickster: still I learned a few things :)

13:38:05 <stickster> Well, that's it from here
13:38:12 <stickster> #topic All other business - Open floor
13:38:20 <stickster> cverna: anything you want to know about Magazine I could answer?
13:38:32 <cverna> I ll try to get another ansible container pitch
13:38:51 <cverna> maybe for the last week of Nov
13:39:42 <cverna> I think there is a list of pre-approved pitch ? Is it in Wordpress ?
13:40:10 <stickster> cverna: Indeed -- there is a "Starter Pitches" category of posts, where an author can pick one and just set it to "Draft" and write the article
13:40:24 <stickster> Each of those is already a pre-approved topic
13:40:35 <stickster> we try to add them from time to time, to keep it full of ideas
13:41:12 <cverna> Cool, I ll have a look at it then.
13:41:38 <cverna> I think that all on my side
13:41:58 <stickster> OK. Thanks for coming cverna!
