I always forget.. 15:20:54 FranciscoD, I think this is a lot :D 15:20:56 I'm working now with the Fedora Magazine 101 15:21:07 #action everyone - find more instructors willing to take sessions 15:21:26 skamath: yeh, but it'll be easier if we can have more talks lined up as we go along - for continuity 15:21:29 x3mboy++ 15:21:30 FranciscoD: Karma for x3mboy changed to 27 (for the f25 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:21:36 It's still a little weird format for me, via IRC.

To record the classes I mean 15:27:42 Should we* 15:27:45 if amita and sumatro need / want help on the git 101 let me know I have some additional sources that helped a local class recently' 15:28:10 FranciscoD, Is there a classroom IRC? 15:28:17 linuxmodder: id' info that 15:28:26 there's a #fedora-classroom already 15:28:29 I must be in there 15:28:31 if amita and sumatro need / want help on the git 101 let me know I have some additional sources that helped a local class recently' 15:28:45 #info if amita and sumatro need / want help on the git 101 let me know I have some additional sources that helped a local class recently' 15:28:50 yep, I'm there :D 15:29:09 x3mboy: it should already be set up with zodbot etc. It's what we used before 15:29:20 I am now as weel that channel missed my znc cutover :( 15:29:26 FranciscoD, Ok 15:29:28 but I'll double check anyway 15:29:38 EOF for me in this topic 15:29:41 #action FranciscoD check if #fedora-classroom is ready 15:29:47 Amita++ sumantrom++ for Git 101 15:29:47 skamath: Karma for amsharma changed to 10 (for the f25 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:29:50 skamath: Karma for sumantrom changed to 3 (for the f25 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:30:16 ok, anything else, or should I move on to the next topic? 15:30:23 kk4ewt, would you down to do a respins /remix classroom with me 15:30:34 nffm 15:31:09 #topic Fedora classroom v2 15:31:19 So, there's a lot to do here, and we must start somewhere 15:31:42 FranciscoD, seems zodbot IS NOT in -classroom after all 15:31:51 The idea is to move on to better teaching platforms - moodle and so on for example 15:32:01 linuxmodder: gah - I'll request infra to fix it 15:32:17 so, yea, IRC is a good platform, but not the best for quite a few sessions, such as design 15:32:47 jitsi and bluejeans are available too 15:33:10 * linuxmodder can't remember if telegram does videochat 15:33:11 So, classroom v2 will be a community supported system/process/what have you that will teach various things - an upgrade to the IRC ones basically 15:33:21 linuxmodder: yea, those are two candidates 15:33:39 Telegram doesn't have video. Just short video messages for now 15:33:52 so, for the next two weeks, I thought we could each pick a platform, set it up, run it, test it, and write a report? 15:33:55 how does that sound? 15:34:08 I've made some suggestions in the ticket 22 15:34:11 ++ 15:34:41 https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/issue/22#comment-439963 15:34:44 #info https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/issue/22#comment-439963 -> platform suggestions from x3mboy 15:35:08 x3mboy: are these all video conferencing platforms, or more? 15:35:14 FranciscoD, Jitsi is a good option 15:35:23 #link jitsi.org 15:35:29 Video Conferencing all of them 15:35:48 Ok 15:35:58 So, can each of us take up one and test it out and write a report? 15:36:04 Things we're looking for: 15:36:32 #info 1. how many people can a video conference hold? 15:36:53 #info 2. what other features does it have? screen sharing, for example? 15:37:12 #info 3. Free or paid? We'd prefer something free of cost 15:37:28 #info 4. FOSS or not - we'd prefer FOSS 15:37:37 #action skamath write a report about Jitsi and post it on Classroom v2 ticket 15:37:51 skamath++ 15:37:51 x3mboy: Karma for skamath changed to 9 (for the f25 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:37:58 #info 5. what is the set up? Can we have a server on fedora-infrastructure? 15:38:15 #info 6. How does one login - open id (so that fas can be used) 15:38:28 #info 7. can the sessions be recorded? 15:38:48 I'm just throwing everything I can think of here - any other requirements, anyone? 15:39:39 how participants can interact 15:39:44 I think this will pretty much work out 15:39:59 #info 8. how will participants interact amongst themselves and with the instructor 15:40:02 alciregi++ 15:40:02 FranciscoD: Karma for alciregi changed to 3 (for the f25 release cycle): https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any 15:40:20 FranciscoD, admin mode will be a +1 15:40:34 #info 9. Is there an admin mode? 15:41:08 I think the best way of going about it is to blog about whatever platform you pick on your blog (which I assume will show up on the planet) 15:41:18 #info 10 can it setup /allow for meeting alerts like a rss feed or similar 15:41:34 maybe a title like "$platform review for use in Fedora Classroom sessions"? 15:41:48 that also gets fedora classrooms a bit of marketing ;) 15:41:58 linuxmodder++ 15:42:03 FranciscoD++ Smart :D 15:42:30 That sounds good. We should pick one on the ticket, so we don't do the work twice 15:42:56 #action everyone - please post your reports on your blogs (and so the planet) with a heading "$platform review for use in Fedora classroom sessions" and drop links on to ticket #22 15:43:02 x3mboy: ++ 15:43:05 skamath: took one already 15:43:25 Do we have a redhatter here with access to bluejeans? 15:43:28 Amita: ^ :P 15:43:46 x3mboy: which one are you taking up? 15:44:03 FranciscoD, Ekiga 15:44:10 #action x3mboy review ekiga 15:44:24 who wants Bigblue button, or open meeting? 15:44:40 I can do either - they're both foss 15:44:59 come on - one more volunteer needed ;) 15:45:33 #action review open meeting 15:45:42 bah 15:45:50 #action FranciscoD review open meeting 15:46:01 so we've got big blue button left - which looks very cool tbh 15:46:05 I can review BBB too 15:46:23 x3mboy: sure? won't be too much work, will it? 15:46:42 Probably is too much, but we need to do all the test, so.. 15:46:59 I'll assign it to you for the moment - I'm sure we'll find more people looking to help out 15:47:01 #action linuxmodder- to review BBB 15:47:07 ah, there you are XD 15:47:10 linuxmodder++ 15:47:11 thanks linuxmodder :D 15:47:13 linuxmodder++ 15:47:47 #info 11 - deployment can be done in various ways - openshift, fedorainfracloud (will require it to be packaged up I think) 15:48:08 waht would require it packaged ? 15:48:13 right, let's leave it here for the moment - not a good idea to assign ourselves too much 15:48:21 or you mean just that you could dnf install foo.rpm FranciscoD 15:48:34 linuxmodder: usually when something is deployed on fedora infrastructure, it needs to be packaged and reviewed to be part of the repos 15:48:40 linuxmodder: yeh - ideally, yes 15:49:05 but I'm not sure if it's compulsory - we'll talk to infra after we've reviewed various things 15:49:27 ok, on to open floor 15:49:30 #topic open floor 15:49:36 it would in order to be repo option unless it fell into copr or rpmfusion 15:50:06 yea, but we'll see - depends on what the requirements are etc 15:50:13 Did you jump the topic #5? 15:50:24 Mentoring 15:50:51 we only have ten more minutes - we could have an initial discussion maybe? 15:51:01 No, it was just me asking 15:51:05 Np 15:51:15 There is nothing more to add for me, so 15:51:16 #info skip mentoring this week - already enough work on our hands 15:51:17 :) 15:51:29 Thanks for chairing FranciscoD 15:51:32 FranciscoD++ 15:51:46 I don't have much either - please remember that f26 releases in a few weeks - hop on to it now and test it out! 15:52:02 also, some talk about mp3 no longer being patented - check the devel list for details 15:52:03 I would like to line up with you to the vim class.
