Who was editing this one? 21:08:27 <jflory7> I originally edited it. 21:08:34 <x3mboy> I think this one is going to get a lot of attention too 21:08:42 <jflory7> I could follow up and get it wrapped up and out. 21:09:00 <jflory7> Featured image is already done. A technical reviewer might be nice here, though. 21:09:20 <stickster> jflory7: you had an article coming tomorrow IIRC... don't want to pile too much on you 21:09:39 <stickster> but I think the consistency of editing is probably a good thing 21:09:51 <jflory7> This one should be an easy edit for me to follow up on over the weekend. 21:10:04 <stickster> linuxmodder: so you have been offering tech review for stuff... here's one you could contribute to before the fact 21:10:48 <stickster> #nick linuxmodder 21:11:00 <stickster> #action jflory7 to seek out linuxmodder and see if he'll tech-review this one 21:11:03 * jflory7 nods 21:11:05 <jflory7> Can do. 21:11:13 <stickster> But yeah, this could go out next week for sure 21:11:26 <stickster> It's a neat "how to" type project article 21:11:42 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Apply last bit of polish to "Smart light" article based on in-line feedback comments in article for early next week 21:11:47 <stickster> sumantro is a QA guy so I'd hope he's good at writing out steps like this :-) 21:11:55 <x3mboy> The image link is broken 21:12:10 <jflory7> x3mboy: Which one? 21:12:17 <x3mboy> Unsplash 21:12:29 <x3mboy> Image courtesy of Ondrej Supitar – originally posted to Unsplash here. 21:12:36 <jflory7> x3mboy: Oh, huh, nice catch 21:12:49 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Find the current home / link for the featured image credit 21:12:52 <jflory7> #undo 21:12:52 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: ACTION by jflory7 at 21:12:49 : jflory7 Find the current home / link for the featured image credit 21:12:56 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Find the current home / link for the featured image credit in "Smart light" article 21:13:01 <x3mboy> The user page (Ondrej Supitar) and the suposed images (here) 21:13:19 <jflory7> x3mboy: Ohh... the user might have deleted their account. Hmmmm... 21:13:31 <jflory7> Not sure what the best action there might be... 21:13:36 <stickster> Deleted his image... but that's none of my business *drinks from cup* 21:13:52 <x3mboy> LOL 21:14:09 <stickster> jflory7: assuming it was up at some point, it's offered under Unsplash license and later removal doesn't change the licensing terms. OK to publish still. 21:14:31 <jflory7> Sounds good. 21:15:13 <x3mboy> jflory7, maybe you can check: https://stocksnap.io/author/913 or https://www.flickr.com/photos/drewthephoto/ 21:15:23 <x3mboy> I think is the same person 21:15:56 <jflory7> x3mboy: Looks like it - I'll dig into it more there. Thanks! x3mboy++ 21:16:32 <stickster> #info --- PostgreSQL quick start --- 21:16:36 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14346&preview=1&_ppp=17352bec57 21:16:49 <stickster> I think this is supposed to be going out tomorrow 21:17:10 * jflory7 nods 21:17:14 <jflory7> I vaguely remember that too. 21:17:18 <stickster> jflory7: I can whip you up a quick image if we truncate this meeting... Ryan won't be around tonight/tomorrow AFAIK 21:17:22 <jflory7> Did I volunteer for this one? 21:17:32 <jflory7> stickster: Yeah, if you could do an image, I can do the editing on this one later tonight. 21:17:36 <stickster> jflory7: nope 21:17:41 <stickster> downey: This one was yours :-) 21:17:47 <jflory7> Ahh, that's right 21:18:20 <stickster> It's not been edited AFAICT... still see Czechisms throughout 21:18:28 * jflory7 nods 21:18:35 <jflory7> If downey is unavailable, I can get this one tonight. 21:19:15 <stickster> jflory7: You're a dynamo 21:19:38 * stickster will take some too, promise, just can't do them until next week 21:20:03 <jflory7> No problem. I'll happily take tomorrow and early next week if you take the later tail of next week :) 21:20:07 <stickster> #action jflory7 will edit PostgreSQL quick start tonight for publication tomorrow 21:20:10 <stickster> jflory7: can do 21:20:28 <stickster> So it seems like we have tomorrow handled, and *maybe* one article next week (Arduino) 21:20:32 <jflory7> I'll be doing heavy traveling for the next two weekends, so my time to edit after this weekend will be a little bit shortened 21:20:50 <jflory7> stickster: Sounds right to me. 21:21:04 <stickster> #info --- PostgreSQL 9.5 overview --- 21:21:13 <stickster> #info stickster contacted hhorak, no word back yet on this 21:21:30 * jflory7 also makes a mental note that the Ansible one is probably one to cover later tonight since it's been pending review for a long time 21:21:32 <stickster> #action stickster ping hhorak again and if no answer next week, this goes to holding pen 21:21:49 <jflory7> This sounds good to me. Thanks for following up on this one. 21:21:49 <stickster> #info --- Ansible/Vagrant --- 21:21:55 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14222&preview=1&_ppp=08194bbe31 21:21:55 <x3mboy> Does this one come after the quick start? 21:22:14 <stickster> x3mboy: it could, yes -- they're not in series, but complementary 21:22:16 <jflory7> x3mboy: I think the idea was the overview would come after, yeah. 21:22:19 <jflory7> stickster++ 21:22:28 <stickster> This article looks fantastic 21:22:40 <jflory7> If I remember, ryanlerch did some poking into this one already 21:22:58 <x3mboy> jflory7, https://www.flickr.com/photos/drewthephoto/19482889032/ here is the picture 21:23:14 <x3mboy> It's all right reserved 21:23:17 <x3mboy> :S 21:23:19 <jflory7> stickster: I think it might be a safe bet to action this one to ryanlerch if it's all sound and ready to publish. 21:24:07 <stickster> x3mboy: I'll leave this up to jflory7 to decide, but if you publish under a free license (like on Unsplash), withdraw, and republish, it doesn't negate the previous license if someone retrieved it under those terms. 21:24:16 <jflory7> ^ 21:24:23 <jflory7> If I have the time, I will try to find a different image 21:24:29 <stickster> jflory7 is of course the EIC so he gets to make that call :-) 21:24:38 <stickster> I'm just advising from the licensing standpoint :-) 21:24:46 <jflory7> But if not, I'll stick with this one. But I'll at least make an attempt to find an alternative option 21:25:32 <stickster> #action stickster Edit the Ansible/Vagrant article on Monday afternoon, and create an image, for a potential publication Tuesday or Wednesday 21:26:00 <jflory7> stickster: It looks like this one has an image already. 21:26:20 <stickster> WOOHOO! less work for me 21:26:29 <stickster> \o/ 21:26:34 <jflory7> stickster: Maybe ping ryanlerch to see his thoughts on it - I do remember him commenting on this one somewhere 21:26:43 <jflory7> Not sure if it was already a WIP or otherwise. 21:26:50 <x3mboy> I need to learn how to make featured images. There is a lot of good photos related to lightbulbs on flickr with the right license 21:26:56 * stickster doesn't understand why we have to advertise Ubuntu in this article :-\ 21:27:23 <stickster> I'll see if I can adapt it, there are certainly Fedora boxes available out there 21:27:29 <x3mboy> stickster, already discussed. It's an ubuntu VM inside fedora 21:27:30 * jflory7 thinks this was actually an article once published on omgubuntu 21:27:33 <stickster> or CentOS 21:27:46 <x3mboy> Fedora Host, i meant 21:28:20 <stickster> understood. But it could just as easily be something in our family on interior, like CentOS 21:28:34 <x3mboy> If images are changed, the whole article need to be edited 21:28:50 <stickster> x3mboy: I have to edit anyway, I'm willing to take that on :-) 21:29:40 <stickster> 98% of the text stays the same, it's just a few commands, and a couple screenshots 21:30:14 * jflory7 nods 21:30:15 <x3mboy> If you take the shot, np for me ;-) 21:30:20 <x3mboy> shoot* 21:31:30 <stickster> #info --- New Firefox 48 features --- 21:31:31 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14316&preview=1&_ppp=164682a1af 21:31:46 <stickster> #info this is actually going to be updated by the author -- v49 is being built and pushed soon 21:32:00 <x3mboy> I have no more space left on my HDD to VM :'( 21:32:00 <stickster> #action stickster continue working with stransky to get this done and ready 21:32:13 <jflory7> :thumbsup: 21:32:25 <stickster> #info --- WebVR --- 21:32:31 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14475&preview=1&_ppp=f5f5c8b606 21:32:43 <stickster> This needs editing for sure 21:33:00 <stickster> I'll take this on to be done late next week 21:33:19 <jflory7> Yep - it might be helpful to ask sumantrom to upload the images to the Magazine directly 21:33:33 <stickster> Oh are these hosted? 21:33:37 <jflory7> If I recall, he usually embeds them from his blog and sometimes the resolution is spotty. 21:33:54 <stickster> #action stickster edit WebVR article for potential publication Monday 2016-09-19 21:33:57 <jflory7> By their size, I guessed they were - but I haven't looked yet. 21:34:59 <stickster> They look good this time 21:35:02 <stickster> I'll resize when I edit 21:35:06 <jflory7> Oh, then never mind! 21:35:16 <stickster> np! :-) 21:35:28 <stickster> Now I hear that cprofitt also has a new HDYF coming soon 21:35:42 <stickster> Should we cross fingers he has that for us in time for next week? 21:35:45 <jflory7> I hear the same rumor. :) 21:35:47 <x3mboy> Resolution is 1024x768. Looks ok for me 21:36:03 <stickster> I usually edit for him, and have no problems doing that again... it's always quick because Charles provides solid text to start 21:36:12 <jflory7> stickster: If past precedent is any indicator, I think it's a fair assumption. I can also ask him when I see him next week. :) 21:36:18 <stickster> coolio 21:36:29 <stickster> So let me do this: 21:38:38 <stickster> Proposed schedule: Fri 2016-09-09 (tomorrow): PostgreSQL quick start, jflory7; Mon/Tue 2016-09-12/13: Arduino smart light, jflory7; Wed 2016-09-14: Ansible/Vagrant, stickster; Fri 2016-09-16: HDYF (TBA), stickster; EXTRA: possible Firefox v49 article somewhere in there if it's ready 21:38:40 * jflory7 thinks after this, we can probably check out the FUDCon article and then revisit the rest later on 21:38:44 <stickster> ^ sound right? 21:38:56 <jflory7> stickster: The FUDCon one might be better to get out the door sooner than later. 21:39:19 <jflory7> stickster: Scrolling through it now, it looks like we should ship it at any time as well - but I haven't read it for content yet 21:39:20 <stickster> agreed, we can push that ASAP, and if we're talking about tomorrow, would be OK for everything else to slide to the right if 21:39:46 <jflory7> Maybe want to do a bump everything to the right? FUDCon tomorrow, everything else to follow sequence after? 21:39:53 <stickster> yeah 21:40:00 <stickster> OK, one more time: 21:40:43 <stickster> Proposed schedule: Fri 2016-09-09 (tomorrow): FUDCon, jflory7; Mon 2016-09-12: PostgreSQL quick start, jflory7; Wed 2016-09-14: Arduino smart light, jflory7; Fri 2016-09-16: Ansible/Vagrant, stickster; Mon 2016-09-19: HDYF (TBA), stickster; EXTRA: possible Firefox v49 article somewhere in there if it's ready 21:41:00 <jflory7> :100: 21:41:04 <jflory7> Sounds good to me! 21:41:14 <stickster> #agreed Publishing schedule upcoming: Fri 2016-09-09 (tomorrow): FUDCon, jflory7; Mon 2016-09-12: PostgreSQL quick start, jflory7; Wed 2016-09-14: Arduino smart light, jflory7; Fri 2016-09-16: Ansible/Vagrant, stickster; Mon 2016-09-19: HDYF (TBA), stickster; EXTRA: possible Firefox v49 article somewhere in there if it's ready 21:41:23 <x3mboy> +1 21:41:26 <stickster> jflory7: OK, where should we take things next? 21:41:31 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Review and edit FUDCon article for publishing tomorrow morning 21:41:39 <stickster> right on 21:41:51 <stickster> I guess all the other actions will be off date but doing them early won't hurt :-) 21:41:52 <jflory7> stickster: I think everything else we have pending, we can review next meeting. 21:41:56 <stickster> agreed 21:42:03 <stickster> #topic FUDCon article 21:42:06 <stickster> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14442&preview=1&_ppp=eef273cc9f 21:42:47 <stickster> jflory7: I have about 20-30 minutes left. If we end the meeting early, I could edit this quickly so you aren't overburdened 21:43:01 <jflory7> Oh, if you could do the FUDCon article, that would be great :) 21:43:03 <stickster> but I'm happy to leave it in your hands if you like, just want the offer out there :-) 21:43:07 <stickster> DONE! 21:43:10 <jflory7> \o/ 21:43:25 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Undo previous action! 21:43:35 <stickster> lol 21:43:44 <stickster> #action stickster (change of plans) edit the FUDCon article and schedule on behalf of illustrious leader and EIC jflory7 21:43:54 <x3mboy> FUDCon Latam will be sooner that ASEAN 21:43:56 <stickster> #topic Open floor 21:43:58 <jflory7> stickster++ 21:44:08 <stickster> x3mboy: true but we don't have an article for LATAM 21:44:13 <stickster> maybe this will prompt someone to send us one :-) 21:44:19 * jflory7 does a very quick scroll through his inbox for anything to maybe cover last minute 21:44:30 * stickster starts editing, hands jflory7 the gavel 21:45:08 * jflory7 doesn't see anything to mention now 21:45:20 <jflory7> If nothing else, we can just gavel on out :) 21:45:30 <jflory7> Going once... 21:45:34 <x3mboy> Nothing from me 21:45:40 <jflory7> Going twice... 21:45:45 <jflory7> Going thrice... 21:46:02 <jflory7> And we're outta here!
