Hi Rosaline!
<@roseline:matrix.org>
11:39:00
Hey, eveyone!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:39:19
It may just be the three of us today, which is fine :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:39:27
Since we are 10 minutes past already, let's just get straight into it.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:39:34
!topic Pending article review
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:39:39
!info What We Do: Review the pending queue of Community Blog articles and assign pending posts to an editor.

<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:40:43
I see two articles pending.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>

<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:41:05
The first one still needs a featured image. The second one already has one.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:41:14
Both articles need an editor.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:41:49
If I could take a guess of mutual interest, Roseline Bassey might have context for the Mentored Projects post and Aoife Moloney might have context for the CPE Quarterly newsletter.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:41:55
Do either of you have capacity to edit an article for next week?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:42:05
(It could be this week but I don't know what your schedules are like.)
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:42:12
Im actually tight on time this week with the Beta release hopefully on tuesday
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:42:21
Oh darn.
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:42:23
I can def give a little support
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:42:26
I could take the CPE Quarterly post
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:42:30
It should be a light lift
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:42:31
but I dont think I can take any extra this week :(
<@roseline:matrix.org>
11:42:32
yep, i can handle it
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:42:44
Aoife Moloney: No problem, I understand :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:43:01
Roseline Bassey: OK, great! Then we can divide and conquer this week 😎
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:43:23
!action @roseline-bassey Review, edit, and schedule Fedora Mentored Projects overview post - https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-mentored-projects-council-hackfest/127312
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:43:43
!action @jflory7 Review, edit, and schedule CPE Quarterly post from Zlopez - https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/review-publish-cpe-quarterly-update-q2/126805
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:44:16
Oh, there is a third article too.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:44:18
!link https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/review-publish-announcing-webhook-to-fedora-messaging/130441
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:44:20
I missed that.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:44:31
We may not have editor capacity to edit it this week
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:44:35
We may have to hold until next week
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:45:03
if you want to keep the cpe one till next week I can do that one then
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:45:22
I think that one will be easy, it has been ready for review since July 🙈
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:45:29
The Webhook one is more recent
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:45:31
hahaha fair :D
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:45:43
I would take it but I am waist-deep in trying to get Flock reimbursements cleared out… still :(
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:02
Fortunately, I think there is progress
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:46:04
it will just need to wait then! :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:08
Yep.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:14
OK, let's build the schedule with these two articles we have.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:22
!topic Schedule planning
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:29
!info Review all the articles discussed previously. Determine the publishing schedule. Editors should either +1 or -1 the proposed schedule to ratify it.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:34
!link https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/upcoming-community-blog-commblog-posts/10890
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:38
Here is what I am thinking.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:46:57
CPE post this Thursday. Mentored Projects next Tuesday. Hopefully Webhooks next Thursday.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:47:00
WDYT?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:47:16
That gives some extra time for the featured image with the Mentored Projects post.
<@roseline:matrix.org>
11:47:27
+1
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:47:33
+1
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:47:45
mentored will clash with potential beta announcement, is that ok?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:47:50
Oh darn.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:48:01
No, anything competing with the beta announcement will get lost.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:48:03
Monday?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:48:14
I usually avoid Mondays as publishing dates but given the circumstances, I think it is fine
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:48:33
monday is a good option
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:48:44
Roseline Bassey: Good for you too?
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:48:50
the go/no-go is thurs so if its a no go then it will still get visibility
<@roseline:matrix.org>
11:48:54
Absolutely
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:49:21
Good to know. We can be flexible depending on the verdict on this Thursday.
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:49:34
yep
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:49:38
Tuesday is generally a better day for viewership and news, it is partly why we do Fedora releases on Tuesdays
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:49:44
OK, let me write this schedule and then we move on
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:02
!agreed CommBlog schedule, 10-19 September: Thu 12 Sep, CPE Quarterly Update Q2; Mon 16 Sep OR Tue 17 Sep, Fedora Mentored Projects - Council Hackfest; Thu 19 Sep, Announcing Webhook To Fedora Messaging
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:08
OK. It is ratified :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:15
!topic Author Q&A
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:19
!info If an article author is present, this is a chance for them to ask questions to the editors about their post.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:27
Do we have any authors around who have questions about their articles?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:41
Zlopez, ffmancera, Akashdeep Dhar, Aurélien B?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:46
If not, we can move forward…
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:51:53
Just want to leave time for any author questions, if there are any :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:52:27
However, I think it might just be the three of us for today, so we can always revisit later in #commops:fedoraproject.org or #marketing:fedoraproject.org.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:52:35
!topic Administravia
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:52:37
ack
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:52:39
!info Administrative decisions to content, organization, and strategy. This is not about articles but about structure and organization of the CommBlog itself.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:52:49
!link https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=pending&post_type=post
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:53:04
We have quite a few posts pending review, but they have not been asked for review yet.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:53:16
Aoife Moloney: Do you remember the status on Steve's Fedora Badges article?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:53:28
!link https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/?p=13547&preview=1&_ppp=f88602b836
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:53:32
ooh I do not
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:53:42
i think it got lost in 'opinions' on a call
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:53:47
Mine more so :p
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:53:57
Might be worth a ping to Steve to see whether it needs more love or if we want to get it into the editing queue
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:54:14
ack, i can take that action
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:54:25
I see Zlopez also has a "How to rebase to Fedora Silverblue 40 Beta" article in there, and it will probably get a lot of hits
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:54:27
Although…
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:54:33
It kinda feels like a Fedora Magazine article more?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:54:42
Thank you! 🙏
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:55:06
+1 to move it to an article
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:55:10
!action @amoloney Follow up with @smilner about status of "State and Future of Fedora Badges" CommBlog post
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:55:33
I'll drop a ping to Zlopez in channel about moving the Silverblue article to the Magazine. I think it would fit the audience well there and also perform better on the Magazine.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:55:59
It would be worth going through more pending articles and drafts, and either clearing out the old or finishing out what is pending. But we only have a few minutes left for today.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:56:07
I think this might be all the administravia that we can cover for now.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:56:18
Anything general about CommBlog administration or structure that you two want to discuss?
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:56:34
no I think you covered it!
<@amoloney:fedora.im>
11:56:53
id like to work through that backlog but I know I wont get to it for a few weeks
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:56:55
Nice 🎉
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:56:59
Anything from you Roseline Bassey?
<@roseline:matrix.org>
11:57:14
nope
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:57:17
It's okay, it will likely take me September to work through my Flock backlog of stuff 😅
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:57:23
!topic Open floor
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:57:27
!info Topics and all other business that did not fit in elsewhere in the meeting agenda.
<@Zlopez:matrix.org>
11:57:46
@jflory7:fedora.im I usually do the Silverblue beta article on commblog and the final release on magazine
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:57:47
We made it to the end 🙌
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:57:55
This was a productive time :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:57:58
Zlopez: Oh, hmmm
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:58:24
Zlopez: I guess I could see that, although I still think the Magazine is the more appropriate audience. However, I think for the beta, it is fine either way.
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:58:30
Mostly I am wondering about the timeline
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:58:41
When is this article expected to be ready? Or when is the ideal publishing date?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:58:48
We may need to factor it into the schedule next week accordingly
<@Zlopez:matrix.org>
11:59:43
I usually do it just around the next Fedora 40 release
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:59:54
The beta release you mean, right?
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
11:59:57
So next Tuesday, possibly?
<@Zlopez:matrix.org>
12:00:00
Yes
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:06
Got it
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:15
Let's make sure we follow-up on it in the editor roundtable next week
<@Zlopez:matrix.org>
12:00:18
It's that close already
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:20
We can rush it out on Tuesday if needed
<@Zlopez:matrix.org>
12:00:21
The time flies
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:26
:D
<@Zlopez:matrix.org>
12:00:46
I will add it to my TODO list and prepare it this week
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:49
!info @zlopez to work on the F41 Silverblue Beta rebase article, for possible publication on Tue 17 Sep if the Beta ships next week
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:55
Zlopez: Thank you!
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:00:59
And with that…
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:01:01
We are at time :)
<@jflory7:fedora.im>
12:01:06
Thanks folks for a lively roundtable!
