14:12:20 <smccann_> i think i'm out of git kindergarten finally 14:12:36 <smccann_> https://fedorapeople.org/cgit/mccann2 if anyone wants to peek to see for sure :-) 14:12:46 <kvanwess> still getting started, will contact my mentor later 14:12:57 <jsilhan_> I am here 14:13:38 * randomuser glances at the cgit 14:13:52 <pkovar> jsilhan_: welcome :) 14:14:47 <randomuser> looks like you're getting the hang of it, smccann_, nice 14:14:59 * bexelbie is 80^% back 14:15:14 <smccann_> randomuser - huzzah! ok have to run to a meeting.. thanks! 14:16:29 <randomuser> kvanwess, glad to see you're still interested! 14:16:43 <randomuser> #topic Release Notes 14:17:15 <randomuser> https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-22/f-22-docs-tasks.html 14:18:20 <randomuser> so, at this point the schedule has us frozen in the wiki, mostly complete in git, and all translation in 14:18:34 <randomuser> we have maybe 15% coverage in the wiki 14:19:33 <randomuser> mattdm was nice enough to give us a plug in his weekly magazine post, so imo we should leave the wiki open for another week to see if it gains any content 14:21:02 * randomuser ponders 14:21:23 <pbokoc> beta is in two weeks?! 14:21:43 <randomuser> yup 14:22:01 <pbokoc> well... whoops 14:22:09 <pbokoc> time to write some release notes, I think 14:22:18 <randomuser> I guess I should send some sort of mail to the list 14:22:58 <randomuser> we'll end up covering just the Changeset, probably 14:23:29 <pbokoc> yeah, I guess that's gonna have to do for beta... do you have a BZ search for all changes for f22 handy? 14:23:32 <randomuser> #info beta release is in two weeks, release notes need help 14:24:31 <pbokoc> well, at least the changeset seems smaller than for f21... 14:24:54 <randomuser> anecdotally, it would be great if most developers were on the same medication as the i18n folks, who thoroughly own their beat for every release 14:25:36 <randomuser> #info look for changes without release notes owner at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/22/ChangeSet 14:26:19 <randomuser> nice, it was updated today, even 14:26:22 <randomuser> jreznik++ 14:26:22 <zodbot> randomuser: You have already given 1 karma to jreznik 14:26:43 <pbokoc> jreznik++ 14:26:50 * pbokoc to the rescue! 14:26:56 <randomuser> #action randomuser to remind everyone about release notes 14:27:01 <randomuser> pbokoc++ 14:27:01 <zodbot> randomuser: You have already given 1 karma to pbokoc 14:27:08 <pbokoc> :D 14:27:25 * jreznik is finalizing the list for wed fesco meeting :) 14:27:37 <pkovar> jreznik++ 14:27:49 <pkovar> i like this karma thingy 14:27:49 <jreznik> docs_team++++++ 14:27:54 <pkovar> very useful 14:28:03 <randomuser> I'm going to skip publishing; no significant news here 14:28:15 <randomuser> #topic Fedora.next updates 14:28:44 <randomuser> the agenda has some stale stuff here 14:29:30 <randomuser> on the beats page, we have no confirmed writers for workgroup beats 14:29:46 <randomuser> actually, nvm, FranciscoD|Uni is taking workstation 14:30:03 <randomuser> so we need cloud and server 14:30:29 * FranciscoD|Uni peeps 14:30:32 * FranciscoD|Uni nods 14:31:00 <randomuser> ...and bcotton is taking cloud, but in the other section :{ 14:31:46 <randomuser> so, server.. I can do that 14:32:30 <grundblom> well nevermind I have to leave now, 14:32:35 <grundblom> sorry and thanks! 14:32:37 <randomuser> unless there are volunteers? 14:32:55 <randomuser> later, grundblom, glad you could make some 14:32:58 <pbokoc> doubt it :) 14:33:32 <randomuser> the break in monologue is nice, anyway :P 14:33:40 <randomuser> #action randomuser to write Fedora Server beat 14:33:54 <randomuser> #topic Guide Status 14:34:20 <randomuser> Capesteve is winning 14:34:30 <Capesteve> :) 14:34:41 <pbokoc> fyi, here's a bug list of all accepted changes for f22: http://red.ht/1BWivVf 14:35:01 <FranciscoD> randomuser: i think there were people ready to work on the cloud flyer - they may be interested in taking the beats? Worth a mail to mktg, do you think? 14:35:28 <FranciscoD> s/cloud/server 14:35:39 <randomuser> FranciscoD, yeah, that's a good idea. I'll remind them about the wiki. 14:36:35 <randomuser> how about other guides, any news? 14:37:09 <randomuser> I would say that we should pick a handful and hackfest one weekly until release day, but we have sooo much for RNs still 14:38:09 <pkovar> I'd say we should organize a hackfest some time soon ;) 14:38:17 <pkovar> or a FAD, if you like 14:38:52 <randomuser> yeah, I think we should 14:38:57 <randomuser> wher eis that schedule 14:39:46 <randomuser> would the same scheme work out, a bicontinental FAD? 14:40:51 <randomuser> perhaps we should discuss out of meeting and see if the idea can get critical mass 14:41:16 <pkovar> randomuser: +1 14:41:55 <randomuser> you're all welcome to raid the beer fridge in my garage at any time, maybe we don't need all this formal planning :) 14:42:47 <randomuser> #action randomuser to touch base with marketing about RNs 14:43:48 <randomuser> so, other guides, hmm 14:44:20 <randomuser> hopefully we can help grundblom and smccann_afk get the virt quickstart guide in working order for release, that's coming along well 14:44:29 <Capesteve> I think OpenSSH Guide is incomplete and marked as Fedora 13, I think it should be moved to the "Old Guides" wiki page 14:44:36 <randomuser> the accessibility guide is getting traction 14:45:05 <randomuser> Capesteve, worksforme, will you do it? 14:45:13 <Capesteve> OK 14:45:17 <randomuser> Capesteve, and maybe the freeipa guide while you're at it? 14:45:28 <Capesteve> and the Wireless Guide 14:46:18 <randomuser> yeah, use your judgment and clean it up, if you would 14:46:51 <randomuser> as long as there's a link from the main table , we're good 14:47:35 <randomuser> pkovar, how is the packager's guide coming? 14:47:43 <randomuser> any plans? 14:48:10 <pkovar> randomuser: i am currently focusing on SCL docs 14:48:30 <randomuser> cool, there's need for that 14:48:57 <pkovar> randomuser: the question whether people are fine with wiki pages for packagers or whether we want a stand-alone guide is still open 14:49:09 * randomuser nods 14:49:47 <randomuser> people are accustomed to using the wiki for this info, but imo if the page was cleared and linked to a guide, they would use that too 14:50:10 <pkovar> randomuser: agreed 14:50:36 <randomuser> since these pages are not generally edited by just anyone, it'd require buy-in from those that do edit it 14:50:52 <randomuser> ...not news to you, I'm sure 14:50:53 <pkovar> and then you have packaging guidelines 14:51:08 <pkovar> which are maintained by the FPC 14:52:24 <randomuser> pkovar, anything I can do to help ? 14:52:36 <pkovar> (so the packager's guide would really be a HOWTO doc) 14:52:40 <randomuser> have all the stakeholders been contacted and weighed in? 14:53:09 <pkovar> randomuser: they were, like a year ago 14:53:23 <randomuser> I guess I was picturing the guidelines being moved into that guide; they're an integral part of my packaging reference material 14:53:25 <pkovar> they seemed to agree on a new HOWTO/guide being a good idea 14:53:35 <randomuser> ok 14:54:36 <pkovar> randomuser: it just needs someone who has time to get the job done now :) 14:54:54 <randomuser> ha, I don't know anyone like that :) 14:55:04 <randomuser> #topic Open Floor 14:55:07 <pkovar> randomuser: that's what i am talking about :) 14:55:41 <randomuser> last week there was a semi-impromptu meeting about improving the new contributor experience across the project, andd lnovich attended to represent us 14:56:14 <randomuser> from what I gather, it was very productive, and I *think* there are plans for a FAD in westford about it sometime soon 14:57:04 <randomuser> (it might work out to have our own FAD be +/- that event, and maybe gain some participation and coordination on facilities, etc) 14:57:08 <bexelbie> +1 14:58:03 <randomuser> so that's my tentative plan for a docs fad, get more info about the join fad and float the idea with mattdm and mizmo 14:58:42 <randomuser> also, there is a fedora Join SIG, centered around helping new contributors get started and familiar with how the community works 14:59:12 <randomuser> the recent efforts aren't coming from within the join SIG but it bears mentioning 15:00:44 <kvanwess> randomuser could you tell me some more about that outside the meeting? 15:01:02 <randomuser> kvanwess, certainly 15:01:10 <randomuser> because our time is up! 15:01:13 <randomuser> #endmeeting
