That's missleading 18:48:02 I mean, server in docs. :-) 18:49:11 yeah, i tend to agree it's probably better to remove old repos than leave them around. i guess there's potentially some value in leaving them for a bit so 18:50:09 Yes, those we used until recently. But some are already unused for several years now. 18:50:20 darknao: is it worth making a list of the repos we'd want to migrate and putting them in the thread (or maybe in issues) so we can figure out which ones need to wait until after the release, which we can do sooner, etc? 18:50:21 agree. there is some very old repo around here, like this one https://pagure.io/docs-fp-o 18:51:07 Ben Cotton (he/him): sorry for interrupting, I wanted to know what do we do after our final applications are submitted i.e. after 22nd? do we continue to make contributions? 18:51:26 bcotton: yes, that will be very helpful 18:51:27 Anushka Jain: you can, yes 18:52:09 AnushkaJain[m]: I would very much appreciate 18:52:34 bcotton: Okk! Thanks, I thought we cannot make changes after we submit the application 18:53:01 Anushka Jain: check the outreachy docs. if you have more questions, let's address them after the meeting 18:53:17 pboy: Thanks:) 18:53:29 okay, i'll create docs-fp-o issues for each of the repos so we can track them. and then docs-fp-o can be the last to go :-) 18:53:49 #action bcotton to create docs-fp-o issues for repos to migrate to GitLab 18:54:00 anything else on gitlab for now? 18:55:03 #topic Content plan Proof of Concept 18:55:03 #link https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/a-proof-of-concept-poc-plan-for-new-content-proposal/37941 18:55:10 pboy, the floor is yours 18:55:33 Thanks. 18:55:51 I've made my ideas available at one of my domains. It was the easiest was for me (allthough I don't like it that way) 18:56:06 http://commtalk.org/fedora/rawhide/user-doc-home/ 18:56:27 There is no public link to it, otherwise. 18:57:04 I hope it makes as clear, what my ideas are. And how to implement it. 18:58:43 i like it at first glance. i need to look around a little more 18:59:00 Of course. 18:59:17 is the source available? the "edit this page" link didn't work on the one i tried 18:59:26 But before I spend more time I would like to get feedback 19:00:12 bcotton: no, doesn't work We must get it into our site, somehow. I need darknao for that 19:00:27 okay 19:00:34 (And darknao must be able to spend the time) 19:01:04 should not be a problem, we can use the staging environment for that 19:01:22 that's one thing i'd like to look at, so we know what it will look like on the back end 19:02:21 It will look a bit different. My local repo is not up-to-date with the latest ui. 19:03:38 Maybe we'll leave it there for a few days and hope for feedback. 19:03:46 And in parallel we're working on bringing it to Fedora backend. 19:04:01 sounds good 19:04:02 And enable me to update it on our backend. 19:04:48 what i'm mostly interested in is how the different pieces are laid out so we can reduce duplicate content between places where, e.g. Workstation and Server are the same 19:05:13 Workstation and server are not the same. 19:05:32 different install procedure, differen file system and partiioning, etc 19:06:03 okay, fine 19:06:16 but Workstation and Silverblue will have some overlap 19:06:24 The idea is: to provide the editions the opportunity, to link to or to link in from the anaconda reference. 19:06:44 Workstation is file based, Silverblue image based (no anaconda at all) 19:06:56 that's not the point 19:07:04 fine, Workstation and KDE Plasma 19:07:10 or things that aren't the install guide 19:07:26 e.g. dnf works the same on all of the non-ostree variants 19:07:46 yes, the idea is to have a comon docu for comon topics. 19:08:08 e.g. wayland is for workstation, silverblue, etc 19:08:21 or network manager, all variants use it. 19:08:49 The new box could be "Fedora Tools" 19:09:23 And we should provide _partials, so you can link to the text or use the _partials 19:09:34 right 19:09:48 And we just need to update the _partials and anything is uptodate. 19:10:30 We have it already that way with anaconda graphical 19:11:16 great! 19:12:11 anything else on this topic? 19:13:49 #topic Backlog grooming 19:13:49 #link https://pagure.io/fedora-docs/quick-docs/issues?status=Open&order_key=last_updated&order=asc 19:14:14 i thought we'd take a look at the quick-docs issues this time, since we did docs-fp-o the last few times we did this 19:14:31 OK 19:14:33 ok for me 19:14:49 #11 seems like we can close it as it doesn't really apply 19:15:14 yeah, I don't understand it. 19:15:31 Maybe it's old day, beta area. 19:15:56 Do we have stg for quick docs? 19:16:32 i don't think so, there is only one branch in this repo 19:16:59 they're published on stg, i think, just from the same branch as prod 19:17:15 But the addres https://docs.stg.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/ works 19:17:25 (which is another topic. it'd be nice to have a stg for tooling changes and a stg for content changes, but that's a matter for another time) 19:18:11 And for quick doc we need a kind of "editor in chief" (I don't now the english term für Lector) 19:18:37 agreed, that would be helpful 19:18:47 someone who oversees the content and looks for outdated and/or wrong content 19:18:57 nobody "owns" it now, so i think a lot of stuff goes un-addressed 19:19:13 not good 19:19:32 who has commit permission? 19:19:44 if we were having Flock this year, i'd want to a hackfest where we all sit in the same room and just tackle a bunch of these small issues 19:20:22 pboy https://pagure.io/group/fedora-docs and https://pagure.io/group/quick-docs-committers 19:21:08 OK. we should select one as responsible. :-) 19:21:28 I think of bcotton ? :-) 19:21:55 never heard of him 19:22:31 Ona first look many of them are not active anymore? 19:22:33 i can take it for now. i probably won't keep it long-term, but we can at least make some progress 19:23:23 Yes, can't do everything. The day has 24 hours, it's hard to make longer 19:23:28 okay, i need to run. pboy or darknao , do you want to take the last few minutes? 19:24:04 we can switch to open floor for the last 10 minutes 19:24:17 +1 19:24:23 #topic Open floor 19:24:29 okay, don't volunteer me for anything else while i'm gone :-) 19:24:44 sure :p 19:26:19 darknao: Do you know, do I have permission to comment on the tickets? I think so? 19:26:28 in quick doc 19:26:44 anyone can comment on tickets 19:26:53 OK. 19:27:30 and what about creating and assigning tags? 19:28:03 only repository admins can create tags I think, since it's in the settings area 19:28:19 OK. 19:28:20 Hi!! I'd like some help on this- https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/classification-of-all-the-content-on-the-docs-website-contribute-if-you-can/38398/6 19:28:55 I've a look on it. go on 19:29:08 and for assigning tags, just look if you have the edit button showing on the right of "metadata" 19:29:17 if you do, then you can assign tags 19:29:42 AnushkaJain[m]: Other than what pboy has already helped with! I want to know if there's a simpler way of classifying them 19:29:50 Oh yes, the edit button works fo me 19:31:02 AnushkaJain[m]: I think, the problem is to determine a useful category system. 19:31:26 That's true 19:31:28 ok we are out of time, but we can continue on the regular channel 19:31:36 And the details of the use case: what should be the usage 19:31:59 Thanks everyone! 19:32:00 I'm stuck there, but I want to optimize and make sense of all the organic content on the docs 19:32:02 AnushkaJain[m]: Hey, I am working on a similar issue, even I am trying to classification. Do you want to collaborate? Maybe we can help each other out? 19:32:08 #endmeeting
