So ... I merged some PRs, and we have one newish one that can probably be merged: https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/pull-request/1482
<@james:fedora.im>
16:05:51
Anyone else have anything to discuss?
<@decathorpe:fedora.im>
16:09:02
not yet
<@limb:fedora.im>
16:09:11
no
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:09:19
not really
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:09:47
I suppose the only thing of real note is that there is an FHS project on freedesktop.org and people interested in it are invited to participate in discussions there
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:09:55
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/FHS/fhs-spec
<@james:fedora.im>
16:10:05
One other thing I'd wondered about ... how do we feel about having this meeting every other week? Or maybe the 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month?
<@decathorpe:fedora.im>
16:10:19
hm. that would be fine with me
<@limb:fedora.im>
16:10:22
That sounds reasonable.
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:10:26
tbh, the main blocker to getting things moving is that I don't understand how this docbook stuff works and how to get CI working for it and a website going
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:10:50
biweekly or monthly seem reasonable to me
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:11:02
things don't pile up enough to warrant weekly
<@james:fedora.im>
16:11:52
I think there are a couple of people you can speak to in Fedora.
<@james:fedora.im>
16:12:17
Maybe ryanlerch?
<@james:fedora.im>
16:12:55
I'm pretty sure everyone working with docbook feels that way ;)
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:13:13
if there was a good way to port to sphinx and rst, I'd do that
<@decathorpe:fedora.im>
16:13:31
pandoc -i docbook -o something_not_ancient :)
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:13:45
:D
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:13:49
I'll have to look into it
<@decathorpe:fedora.im>
16:13:59
(not sure if that even is a thing)
<@limb:fedora.im>
16:14:03
Heck, even Markdown.
<@decathorpe:fedora.im>
16:14:08
but knowning pandoc, it probably is
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:14:20
well, I definitely still want the "book publishing features" so md is kind of out
<@limb:fedora.im>
16:14:35
I know, I was kidding. :)
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:14:39
and Fedora's usage of antora has given me a firm dislike of adoc
<@decathorpe:fedora.im>
16:14:41
(mdbook is kind of nice)
<@james:fedora.im>
16:15:12
https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:15:32
doesn't that use openai to do the thing?
<@james:fedora.im>
16:15:33
Ahh, n/m you said md wasn't good enough.
<@carlwgeorge:fedora.im>
16:15:44
sorry got pulled away for a moment, i'm also +1 to meeting every other week
<@james:fedora.im>
16:15:51
I think it's for openai, but doesn't use it.
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:16:00
ah
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:16:12
James: yeah the issue with md is that it doesn't have built-in publishing markup
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:16:23
it's tool specific, which makes things fugly later
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:16:48
only adoc and rst have publishing markup features
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:16:57
well, and latex and docbook xml
<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>
16:17:06
but I'd rather not use either of those
<@james:fedora.im>
16:19:13
Fair enough
<@james:fedora.im>
16:20:41
Out of curiosity ... is that just for creating PDFs, or is the plan to print to actual paper?
<@james:fedora.im>
16:26:55
Okay, I'm going to give ya'll some time back ... and I've changed my calendar to be the 1st/3rd Thu. of the month. I'll try to update fedcal.
