I'm hoping to corner rbergeron later for her assistance. 13:19:19 The User Guide should be coming soon as well. 13:20:28 Yep, need a week or two to get to know everything but basically yes it is on it's way 13:20:52 fnadge: for which guide? 13:20:59 i also hope that the release set for fedora docs can be changed soon so that it references f16 13:21:08 in transifex, i mean 13:21:14 Sparks: the user guide 13:21:28 i'm currently discussing that with glezos 13:21:35 (see the mailing list) 13:21:45 fnadge: We did some work on the UG at the FAD yesterday. 13:21:53 fnadge: You might check with zoglesby 13:22:02 * zoglesby is here now... 13:22:03 Sparks: great 13:22:13 will have a look later today 13:22:30 zoglesby: You awake yet? 13:22:43 any news wrt Installation Guide, anyone working on it? 13:22:49 Sparks: no, after lots of delays I got in at about 1AM 13:22:54 :/ 13:23:11 I ended up sleeping half of yesterday after I got home. 13:23:24 pkovar1: I'm not sure. How much has changed? 13:23:39 suehle: Ya... I'm not awake yet... 13:24:13 i have no idea, actually. i hope we can have the f16 branch with current content soon 13:24:59 as this guide has rather high l10N priority 13:25:00 pkovar1: I mean... how much of the installation process has changed. I'm guessing we need to update some screen shots and call it good 13:25:16 pkovar1, i am willing to be a proof reader once it gets pushed to draft 13:25:25 +1 13:25:40 Sparks: i guess 13:25:46 sl 13:25:48 s 13:25:55 * Sparks really doesn't know and is speculating 13:25:59 sorry :-) i mean i think so 13:26:12 pkovar1, i deal with new users daily that well be pointed to those docs from #fedora 13:26:48 fwiw, the last commit in ig is: 2011-05-24 Ruediger Landmannupdate for F15 13:27:44 Okay, let's move on. Much of this discussion belongs on the list in front of more people so we can get answers. 13:27:57 #topic FAD @ OLF 13:28:05 #link http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_@_OLF_2011 13:28:15 Stick a fork in this one... it's done! 13:28:22 I will post a report todasy 13:28:27 or today 13:28:33 I'd prefer it todasy 13:28:39 zoglesby: great, thanks :-) 13:29:12 We got a lot accomplished and it wasn't all during the specified Sunday FAD. I believe the FAD started in my room on Friday and went until. 13:30:22 We didn't have the turnout from the external participants, though 13:30:56 i see a lot of interesting work done at http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=docs/documentation-guide.git;a=summary 13:31:02 thank you guys! 13:31:23 #topic FUDcon Blacksburg 13:31:24 any plans on further improving it? 13:31:33 #link http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Blacksburg_2012 13:31:39 pkovar1: There's always plans! 13:31:52 yep, sure :-) 13:32:11 i'll add some content wrt transifex and translations 13:32:31 pkovar1: Yeah, I started to do that. 13:32:46 Sparks: awesome, thanks 13:32:47 pkovar1: I was thinking about either grabbing the text from the wiki or referencing the wiki 13:32:52 Okay.. 13:33:04 So FUDCon Blacksburg is coming up at the end of January 13:33:33 We are planning on doing an Intro to Docs class and a DocBookXML/Publican class 13:33:40 We need you! 13:33:59 So if you can make it please plan to do so. If you can help out please say so on the list. 13:34:06 Questions? 13:34:23 Jarek got a great presentation on Docbook/Publican 13:34:45 fnadge: Yes, I'm hoping he'll recycle that for us. 13:35:13 Am sure he will be glad to help 13:35:24 Yes, I've already recruited him 13:35:32 he and John (jjmcd) 13:35:37 :) 13:35:51 Okay, anything else on FUDCon Blacksburg? 13:36:42 hotel rooms are open for reservation 13:36:47 Huh, but I won't be attending FUDCon Blacksburg. 13:37:00 I am going to give a presentation in Milan though, with jjmcd. 13:37:08 jhradilek: Awesome! 13:37:40 Which reminds me that I still need to finish the slides. O:-) 13:37:46 heh 13:37:57 okay, moving on 13:38:04 #topic Docs QA 13:38:29 zoglesby will be sending a message to the list later regarding the discussion at the FAD we had about QA. 13:38:44 Sparks: yes 13:39:03 and I will start working on the wiki 13:39:18 I believe we got much of the whats and whys out of the way... 13:39:28 so it should be *easier* to implement 13:39:39 zoglesby: Want to say something about this? 13:39:51 Its great 13:40:35 Sorry, I have two points to tlak about First, about FUDCon Milan 13:40:48 no, its going to work much like the packaging process, in that you need to submit a patch to BZ and get it QA'ed before you push to git 13:40:57 fnadge: Hold on and I'll give you the floor 13:41:08 okay 13:42:17 zoglesby: Okay, we'll be waiting for that email. 13:42:22 Anyone have any questions on this topic? 13:42:46 any method of enforcing this? or finding the manpower? 13:43:19 bcotton: Yes... Meet Sven. He'll be coming to your house for enforcement purposes 13:43:41 :-) 13:43:46 bcotton: we also have some automation plans 13:43:50 Sparks, witha cricket bat or without ? 13:44:02 ;-p 13:44:08 LinuxCode: Sven doesn't need a cricket bat but might use one just for fun. 13:44:18 tehehe 13:44:32 okay good. i guess i'm just concerned about setting up a process that we won't reasonably be able to hold ourselves to and what kind of problems it might cause 13:45:04 (not that i have a solution) 13:45:08 bcotton: Right. If people aren't stepping up to be QAers then we'll need to help each other. 13:45:26 I'll write this and you can review it while I'm reviewing what you wrote. 13:45:46 bcotton: it is the same as package reviews 13:45:54 ah yes, the extortion model :-D 13:46:09 zoglesby: i'll have to get involved in packaging so i know how that process works 13:46:59 bcotton, take ya pick 13:47:02 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist 13:48:36 Okay, we need to move on... 13:48:48 #topic FUDCon Milan 13:48:52 sorry for jumping in earlier. I talked to Francesco, the main organizer of FUDCon, but he could not give me any details yet about the hackfest. Basically, the schedule will be ready when we hit the conference. 13:48:54 fnadge: Go 13:49:13 So far I had only one person getting in touch with me. 13:49:27 Who is actually planning to go to FUDCon? 13:51:03 Right, not all at the same time:) 13:51:35 we'll be there. and jsmith too, i believe 13:51:42 who else? 13:52:45 Perhaps sending a note to the Docs list would be good. 13:53:16 Right, will try another one 13:53:47 Okay, with just a few minutes left I'll open the floor up. 13:53:54 #topic Open floor discussion 13:54:02 Anyone have anything? Questions? Comments? 13:55:20 it'd be great if guide owners could send an email to the trans list once their guides are branched 13:55:43 i think that was not happening for f15 13:56:11 and we should improve the communication between our teams 13:56:15 I'd like to point out that many guides add-to their guides and there aren't large changes (exception being the Release Notes) so if translators want to continue to translate their efforts will likely not be in vain. 13:57:42 Okay, anything else before we close? 13:58:06 nothing else, thanks :-) 13:58:16 zoglesby: Do I need to branch and build and publish Burning ISOs for F16 today? 13:58:36 Sparks: its already brached 13:58:48 zoglesby: Do I need to build and publish Burning ISOs for F16 today? 13:58:53 if you want to publish it and have the time that would be fine 13:59:04 I'll put it on my list for today 13:59:08 thanks! 13:59:31 Anyone have anything else? 13:59:34 I am playing catch up at work today so I will send the FAD notes tonight 13:59:54 Awesome 13:59:58 if I don't fall asleep when I walk in the door at my house that is :) 14:00:10 Okay, thanks everyone for joining us today. 14:00:12 #endmeeting
