14:18:52 <randomuser> #info randomuser is behind on writing the ansible definition for the docs backend 14:19:32 <randomuser> # at the last meeting, the docs backend was functional but had some branding issues 14:19:39 <randomuser> #info at the last meeting, the docs backend was functional but had some branding issues 14:19:45 * randomuser gulps coffee 14:20:18 <randomuser> Sparks, any news on the promised tools for self-service package adds? 14:21:31 <Sparks> randomuser: No news. 14:21:48 <randomuser> k 14:22:14 <randomuser> looks like no notable progress this week on publishing, let us move on 14:22:45 <randomuser> hm.. next on the agenda is Product updates; i don't think we have any 14:23:02 <randomuser> #topic Guide Status 14:23:20 <randomuser> #info randomuser has started writing 'recipes' for the Cookbook 14:23:55 <randomuser> #info there is a badges ticket opened for contributing to the cookbook 14:24:31 <randomuser> #link https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-badges/ticket/259 14:25:25 <randomuser> #info Cookbook contributions are 'low hanging fruit' for new contributors, so please participate as a submitter or reviewer or both 14:26:02 <randomuser> that's all I have to report for Guide work this week - who else has been working on a Guide? 14:26:25 <ciupicri> stupid question: where's the cookbook right now? 14:28:01 <mpduty> randomuser: are you the recipes on the wiki 14:28:19 <ciupicri> and as a reminder for the the SEO thing, searching "Fedora Cookbook" with Google doesn't show any meaningful results 14:29:31 <randomuser> ciupicri, just in git right now 14:29:50 <randomuser> i wanted to have some content in there before publishing 14:30:16 <ciupicri> https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/docs/fedora-cookbook.git right? 14:30:27 <randomuser> that's the one 14:31:16 <randomuser> if you browse through the tree, you'll see there's also an examples folder with a template for recipes 14:31:25 <ciupicri> ok 14:33:44 <mpduty> ok, can I push my work? 14:41:28 <randomuser> i'm struggling with some lag here, not ignoring the meeting 14:41:54 <randomuser> mpduty, if you mean 'push' as in 'git push', no, that won't work 14:41:57 <randomuser> but you can share patches 14:42:46 <mpduty> but I failed to clone, it says please make sure you have the correct access rights 14:43:22 <randomuser> you might be able to use the http URI 14:43:43 <randomuser> if you're trying to use the ssh one and failing 14:44:17 * randomuser makes a note to see if the docs repos can be +r for docs and +rw for docs-writers 14:44:49 <randomuser> mpduty, try https://git.fedorahosted.org/git/docs/fedora-cookbook.git 14:45:13 <mpduty> yes, alright 14:45:27 <randomuser> let's talk bugs 14:45:36 <randomuser> #topic Outstanding BZ Tickets 14:45:42 <randomuser> #link http://tinyurl.com/lbrq84 14:46:38 <randomuser> pbokoc, there's a new one against the install guide asking for directions on setting up a 'rescue environment' chroot using a live image - do you think it works there, or better somewhere else? 14:47:11 <randomuser> i'm already covering the area in the multiboot-guide, whenever it gets to the point of publishing 14:47:25 <pbokoc> randomuser, it works there better than anywhere else, I think. 14:47:42 <pbokoc> in fact, we have that documented in the RHEL7 version 14:47:49 <randomuser> cool 14:48:23 <pbokoc> there's a "Basic System Recovery" chapter in the back that talks about this, and points people to the sysadmin guide for other rescue modes (single user mode, etc.) 14:48:46 * sclark arrives rather late 14:49:33 <pbokoc> so when the RHEL7 guide is finished I'll start working on making a new, better Fedora install guide based on the RHEL7 one, which will fix that bug too 14:50:12 <randomuser> it seems like we have a few things pending rhel7 work - around when is that planned for release? 14:50:43 <pbokoc> I think that's secret, unfortunately :/ 14:51:22 <randomuser> mostly wondering if it will land before/after f21 release, which is also unstated 14:51:35 <randomuser> BUT! I won't push the issue, NDA is NDA 14:51:52 <pbokoc> yeah, but looking at the F21 timeline, RHEL7 should be out before that with enough time to get the books ready for Fedora 14:52:17 <pbokoc> (plus I bet F21 will probably end up being pushed back even more :)) 14:52:22 <randomuser> heh 14:52:55 <randomuser> has anyone else spotted a bug we should discuss? 14:54:22 <randomuser> #topic Open Floor Discussion 14:55:22 <randomuser> was there an Office Hours yesterday? 14:56:13 <randomuser> doesn't look like it 14:56:39 * pbokoc shrugs 14:56:47 <randomuser> #info next docs office hours is 17APR 1800UTC 14:56:55 <Sparks> randomuser: When are all the office hours? 14:57:24 <randomuser> Sparks, early thursday afternoon, early sunday morning 14:57:32 <randomuser> for our hemisphere, anyway 14:58:14 <sclark> sparks, times for Office Hours are in Fedocal under Events 14:59:19 <randomuser> okay, I need to go on to the next meeting 14:59:34 <randomuser> thanks for coming everyone, refreshments in #fedora-docs after 14:59:54 <randomuser> (specifically, pbokoc's refreshing wit - no snacks) 15:00:00 <randomuser> #endmeeting
