<@rwright:fedora.im>

Was anyone able to run through this? It would be good to know if anyone did it successfully, or tried but got stuck.
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:18:29
I had a read of it but didn't actually get to run through it. seems sensible though 👍️
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:18:55
(although I still think we should use quarto for ease of collaboration, but that's just me 😛)
<@bt0dotninja:fedora.im>
14:19:06
I tried it; it's good maybe I can push some examples for data extraction
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:19:21
Robert Wright (he/him): Thinking about the repos you are setting it up, it could be a potentially awesome session to present at the F40 Release Party. Just introducing people to the tools and getting more people exposed to these initial setup tasks
<@rwright:fedora.im>
14:19:25
I'm looking at getting a quatro pipeline up... :D Step by step!
<@nhanlon:beeper.com>
14:19:40

<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:19:45
if i can help, hit me up. i've been moving my things around to make some more time for fedora data 🙂

<@rwright:fedora.im>
14:20:14

<@rwright:fedora.im>
14:22:06
Let's connect today on this
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:22:19
!info Some people completed the initial setup. Some people looked through it and it made sense to them. Likely need more visibility on these tasks. Might be a possible collaboration with Marketing Team to craft a message to invite people to jump into the Fedora data river!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:22:26
Sounds good to me :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:22:31
This was the only action from last time.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:22:42

<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:24:35
OK! So, I have some updates on where the F40 Release Party is at. Then, I am looking for leaders and helpers on different focus areas of the event!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:24:41
So, a quick update first.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:25:31
!info The F40 Release Party is scheduled for Friday, 24 May and Saturday, 25 May. This is one of the biggest virtual events we run during the year to highlight new changes in Fedora during the last release and to celebrate the efforts of our global community to keep the Fedora wheel turning.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:26:02
!info There are four areas where we are organizing volunteers and helpers: Content & Promotion, Design, Speaker Management, and Event Production.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:26:35
!info Aoife Moloney volunteered to drive Speaker Management. Justin is leading on Event Production. Content & Promotion and Design still need leads. All areas need helpers.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:27:08
There are some placeholder GitLab issues for each of these four areas too.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:27:34
But, this is the general view of where things are. It is later than I wanted it to be, but still better than what we have done in some previous parties.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:27:44
This is the first time it is being opened up to volunteers in this way, though!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:28:02
So, I will leave it here to see if folks have any questions? Comments? Ideas? Or do you want to know more about leading or volunteering with the event?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:28:06
The floor is open!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:28:27
Brainstorming on hot topics for sessions is also good :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:28:38
Doubly so if you know the person we could ask for a hot topic.
<@nhanlon:beeper.com>
14:29:42
I can't commit to owning any particular area, but I will help out as I can!
<@vazsingh:matrix.org>
14:29:58

neil gave a cookie to jflory7. They now have 353 cookies, 4 of which were obtained in the Fedora 40 release cycle
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:30:34
likewise, i'm reserving what time i have to dive into data with Robert, but if there's anything specific you think I can help with, I'm only a poke away 🙂
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:31:08
Any particular area you are interested in helping, of the four areas?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:31:42
Since we have some data folks here, it would be cool to have a little showcase of the community social analytics work. Or, what is possible, what can be done, and how to get hands-on yourself.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:32:06
It would probably make more sense to have one joint session than multiple similar but slightly different sessions
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:32:32
i will cede to Robert if he wants to do that, since he's the lead, but I can cover a virtual session if not (probably, need to check my calendar 😛)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:32:43
Robert Wright (he/him), WDYT?
<@rwright:fedora.im>
14:32:47
I can do something but I will open it up to others!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:33:11
Would y'all want to collab on a presentation?
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:33:37
I can grab content and promotion and then work with contributors from Outreachy to make it happen. I also have some potential speakers to close the deal on. Can work with Aoife to pass the speakers over to her coordination based on the process that works for her.
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:33:43
sure, why not. we can taalk about it before the next meeting I guess?
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:33:48
What would the content part entail?
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:33:51
(re data) sure, why not. we can taalk about it before the next meeting I guess?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:33:56
That would be super helpful!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:34:00
Great question.
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:34:03
Sorry I think I butt in lol
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:34:32
Nah, go with the flow :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:35:19
I would imagine 1-2 Community Blog posts between now and May 24th. Maybe helping out with the Wiki page schedule. Working with the Marketing Team on social media coverage and promoting sessions in advance of the party. Promoting (or scheduling) things during the party.
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
14:35:23
If you need help with event production, happy to support 🙂 Since I'm doing that also for FWD 😅
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:36:03
Since we are about three weeks out, there is probably not a _ton_ that we can do, but I see it more like the writing and the sharing. Bloggin' it, as the Fedora Badges series goes 😀
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:36:28
Thanks Jona! Yeah, we can collab on this because we both have a lot to learn with Hopin going away.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:36:35
Oh yeah. Did I mention we are not going to use Hopin this time?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:36:47
Going to try out something new :) And, FOSS.
<@bt0dotninja:fedora.im>
14:37:01
Ohhh
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:37:24
I can commit to content and promotion leading up the event, but during the event I may only be able to cover social media. Prob won't be able to do event stuff in Hopin.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:37:39
Gwmngilfen, Robert Wright (he/him): Could I action both of you to collab in the next two weeks on planning out a 25 minute session, and update us in the next meeting? Because the next meeting will be super close to the event, it will be good to have more than a draft by the next meeting if possible.
<@nature365:matrix.org>
14:37:46
👌
<@rwright:fedora.im>
14:37:49
OK
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:37:55
sounds good
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:37:56
It doesn't have to be a deep-dive on data science, but I would love something with a strong call-to-action that encourages people to get involved.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:38:44
!info Joseph Gayoso volunteers to be the lead for Content & Promotion, and work with Outreachy applicants and other Marketing Team members on the prep leading up to the party.

I can comment more on this, since it is actually a pretty big deal.
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:41:30

!info For the first time since we started running global, virtual release parties, we are NOT returning to Hopin. Partly by desire and partly by necessity, we are switching our event production platform. The most-likely contender is a Matrix room with a YouTube widget embedded with a live-stream of the video content. Presenters would connect most likely on BigBlueButton, Jitsi Meet, or Google Meet. Live-streaming details TBD!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:42:14
The acquisition really was the death of Hopin 😞
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:42:41
Well, it is a slow death. The papercuts just keep getting more and more with Hopin.
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:42:49
i have done similar setups for Ansible, if you need any help (though I'm sure you have it in hand)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:42:53
So, even though we do have access to it, it seems unwise to continue relying on it
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:42:56
Why did Hopin die? Not that I'm mad to see us use Matrix lol
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:43:04
And the #creativefreedom:fedora.im folks did an awesome job of proving what is possible too.
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:43:11
I also saw an announcement from Element about a partnership with BBB, quite interesting
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:43:12
On Matrix, for virtual events?
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:43:27
Right, that's how we did a lot of the Ansible events during the pandemic
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:44:05
RingCentral acquired Hopin. The random bugs and browser-specific behaviors are getting worse. Also, functionality is getting ripped out of Hopin and moved to other RingCentral products. I think the goal of the acquisition was to incorporate Hopin tech to other RingCentral things, then put Hopin to rest. Or that is my hypothesis.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:44:11
How did you handle A/V?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:44:24
Speaking of this: #event-f40-party:fedoraproject.org
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:44:31
Speakers in a private Jitsi room streaming direct to YT, YT widget in the room
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:44:46
Nice, that is how #creativefreedom:fedora.im did it too
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:45:09
it works, and it works for almost any platform, with some caveats
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:45:33
Jitsi has YT built in, but in theory the moderator can OBS any meeting tool and send it to the stream 🙂
<@meedarhh:matrix.org>
14:45:40
🚀
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:45:46
Any lessons learned or pitfalls to avoid?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:46:26
(we will give F40 party another 4-5 minutes, then switch to open floor so folks have a chance to bring up anything that did not already come up)
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:47:14
nothing major. obvious things like having a couple of moderators, decent connection etc. Get the URL of the widget for Matrix users not on Element. THat's all I think
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:48:05
!idea Ansible wisdom from Matrix virtual events: Have multiple moderators. Test connectivity on the A/V platform of choice. Make sure a URL to the stream is available outside of the Matrix widget for people outside of Matrix.
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
14:48:36
happy to talk more on the topic offline with whoever is setting it up, but lets continue with the agenda for now 😉
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:48:45
Cool.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:48:56
So, let me recap, and then let's switch to Open Floor for the last ~10 minutes
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:49:59
!halp Volunteers (both leaders and helpers) are needed for multiple areas of the F40 Release Party. The best way to get hands-on is to comment on the individual GitLab issues for each area and work with the assigned lead to meet the objectives.

^^ Watch these issues for more details, or say hi if you are interested in getting hands-on with something 🙂 We definitely can use the help!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:50:55
!topic Open floor
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:51:20
Alright! The floor is open. This part of our meeting agenda is for anyone to ask anything or bring something up that did not come up earlier in the meeting.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:51:31
Anyone have something to share?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:51:38
Brian Clemens: We could chat a bit more about your event.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:53:17
Any support or help you are looking for?
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:53:48
Sounds good. I didn't have much in mind. Just a generic "stop by and talk about the cool stuff" type of table. I don't really need a much of a budget but Fedora handouts would be good if they're available
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:54:18
What is the timeline for the event? How close?
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:54:29
July 27th
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:54:31
Maybe I could get some stickers and swag out there if there is enough time.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:54:56
That should be enough. I've never shipped to Japan though. But I can't imagine it taking two months to get something out there.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:55:01
My swag warehouse is in California.
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:55:25
Ack, yeah it normally takes about a month if shipped via the cheapest available option
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:55:28
I don't know if I have a _handout_ ready, but that would be a useful thing to have.
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:56:18
Well, a month factors in the production delays from where I normally buy swag from, which probably isn't an issue here lol
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:56:50
Brian Clemens: Let's chat in DM about getting you some Fedora swag out there. There is supposed to be a ticketed process for this, but the process is not working right now, so it is easier to go through me directly for now. (Eventually, I hope this is something we can open up for community members to help out with later this year!)
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:57:00
Ah yeah I guess by handouts I mean stickers / swag / whatever. A printed handout would have to be translated, but I could arrange that
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:57:37
!action @jflory7 Brian Clemens Chat about getting a Fedora swag shipment out to Japan for https://www.ospn.jp/
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:57:48
Good point on l10n
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:58:08
Alrighty… I am not hearing anything from anyone else.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:58:11
Open floor, going once…
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:58:25
Going twice…
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:58:29
I have a thing
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
14:58:38
Joseph Gayoso: Floor is yours, go!
<@joseph:fedora.im>
14:58:57
What information do we need to put together to get an announcement post for the release party out?
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
14:59:50
I imagine it's important to get something with just the dates and times out ASAP, and a subsequent post with more details can come later
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
15:00:09
Just so that people can get it on their calendars
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:00:11
^^ that
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:00:19
Basically a save-the-date post right now is most important
<@joseph:fedora.im>
15:00:35
What are the times?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:01:03
I copied the same times from last year. It's proooobably safe to use these again. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Linux_40_Release_Party_Schedule#Schedule
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:01:07
I can't think of a good reason _not_ to
<@joseph:fedora.im>
15:01:44
Ok, sounds good. I can draft that.
<@brian:tiuxo.com>
15:02:07
Heh, might be good to see if the social analytics folks can find center mass for interacting-with-fedora-socials times. Probably works out to be more or less the same
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:02:16
Thanks a million 🙏 🙏 Happy to collab on it, plus we have a growing team of editorial support for the CommBlog
<@joseph:fedora.im>
15:03:06
Actually since this is used focused should it go on the magazine?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:03:14
An old historical tip I learned back in the day is that Tuesdays 08:00 UTC is a magic time
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:03:22
Wait, yes! Not CommBlog, Magazine
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:03:24
You are right
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:03:47
Folks, we have to yield the meeting channel and I have to run another meeting, so I have to end things here. We can keep the conversation going in #commops:fedoraproject.org :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:03:53
I will follow up on Discussion with a meeting recap of today.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:03:58
Thanks everyone for your participation!
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
15:04:02
one sec
<@gwmngilfen:ansible.im>
15:04:03
I will leave it up to Justin W. Flory (he/him) to determine if this should go in the minutes, but I'll shamelessly self-promote everywhere that I am running in the Matrix Foundation elections - if you happen to be a voting member, I'd love your support 😛 - see https://matrix.org/governing-board/elections/2024/#individual-nominees for my pitch, or just chat with me at some point.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
15:04:04
See ya next time 😀
