Most of mine are getting old/threadbare 12:45:28 asamalik: Do we have time for AOB? 12:45:40 SpyTec13: can you please move/create a card for it on the board so we don't forget? https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban 12:45:53 #topic 7/ Open floor 12:45:57 let's see :) 12:46:02 * bcotton has a topic 12:46:22 (can be done asynch if needed) 12:46:25 * asamalik gave the mic to bcotton 12:47:06 so someone on my article this morning suggested a category for the Command Line Quick Tips. How do we feel about that? Would we rather have a tag (even though we don't seem to use those)? It'd be nice to have a quick way for people to find all of those articles, though 12:47:31 tag makes a perfect sense to me, yes 12:47:33 A category sounds like a good idea to me 12:47:35 oops 12:47:37 fight! 12:47:41 tags are kind of arbitrary though 12:48:00 Another idea would be to give them all a "series" 12:48:03 * asamalik just learned that "category" is probably a wordpress term :) 12:48:09 it is :-) 12:48:14 yeah, tags require gardening from time to time. i think they could be useful for us to use, but putting them in a category is a simpler implementation, imo 12:48:23 Right now those are things like "For Sysadmins," "Fedora Project community," "New in Fedora," etc. 12:48:26 ^ categories 12:48:41 tags are arbitrary labels you can stick on an article to help search engines locate it for related terms 12:49:00 ooh series seems like a good idea 12:49:06 asamalik: don't think I have permissions to write to the kanban board. First time using it 12:49:13 But we also have a "series" (I think?) that lets you classify articles that can be grouped together -- and I think we also have a plugin that puts links to other series articles on each article's page 12:49:15 we have a lot of series that seem like they'd be better as tags 12:49:18 SpyTec13: oh! let me fix that for you 12:49:25 ryanlerch: ^ do you know if the series thing still works? 12:49:28 .fasinfo SpyTec13 12:49:29 asamalik: User "SpyTec13" doesn't exist 12:49:39 .fasinfo egustavs 12:49:40 SpyTec13: User: egustavs, Name: Eric Gustavsson, email: egustavs@redhat.com, Creation: 2018-10-26, IRC Nick: SpyTec13, Timezone: Europe/Prague, Locale: en, GPG key ID: None, Status: active 12:49:43 SpyTec13: Approved Groups: cla_done cla_fpca 12:49:44 :-) 12:49:45 thanks! :) 12:50:01 stickster: it should... 12:50:10 SpyTec13: I've added you 12:50:13 we havent used it for a while i dont think 12:50:23 asamalik: thanks :) 12:50:46 SpyTec13: you might have received an email you'd need to confirm.. not sure what Taiga has decided to do this time 12:50:52 it's kind of hard to tell 12:50:59 series looks functional afaict 12:51:16 #idea Use *series* to mark the CLI quick tips so they can be found more easily from each other randomly, as well as on a series page 12:51:47 tags let you do that from a tag page, but they don't create a "you might also like..." style link on a tagged article 12:52:00 sounds good! 12:52:34 how about i dig into this a little more and come back to the mailing list with a proposal? 12:52:36 I'm definitely for a grouping of some sort, both series and category sound good :) 12:52:43 ryanlerch: I can't find the "series" setting in the document settings though 12:52:45 bcotton: that would be great 12:52:51 I wonder if that API changed in Gutenberg 12:53:34 #action bcotton to look into the series plugin and come to the mailing list with a proposal on how to group Command Line Quick Tips (and perhaps a broader plan for how to use series, categories, and tags in harmony) 12:54:43 +1 12:54:49 * stickster raises hand 12:54:50 cool! 12:54:51 anything else for the last 5 mins? :) or do we want to get some time back to get ready for the next meeting we likely all have? :) 12:54:59 * asamalik gives the mic to stickster 12:54:59 asamalik: emails didn't indicate verifying, and I can't find any sort of add card button :( 12:55:07 Probably easier if you'd create the card at this point.. :D 12:55:12 #info stickster will be unavailable for next Magazine meeting -- at a day-long RHEL planning meeting 12:55:34 SpyTec13: heh, that's annoying... sorry for that, I'll create it for you and look into that 12:55:38 * asamalik shakes fist at Taiga 12:56:03 stickster: i'll look into it, pretty sure it is this issue ttps://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/3369 12:56:25 stickster: ack, thanks for the info 12:56:57 I might be at a meeting, too, now thinking about it 12:57:56 ryanlerch, cverna, bcotton: can any of you chair the next meeting? there is a checklist to make it easier :) https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-magazine/editorial-meetings/ 12:58:06 i can 12:58:11 bcotton++ 12:58:17 bcotton++ 12:58:18 #action bcotton to chair next week's meeting 12:58:21 #undo 12:58:21 Removing item from minutes: ACTION by asamalik at 12:58:18 : bcotton to chair next week's meeting 12:58:23 wait lies 12:58:35 i won't be around for next week's meeting , probably :-( 12:59:09 * cverna is not around too 12:59:14 ha, this will be fun! 12:59:22 sounds like there's no meeting next week? 12:59:49 we kind of rely on it for the publishing schedule, so maybe we should figure it out async 13:00:02 and we're over time! 13:00:07 yeah, mailing list it is, i think 13:00:33 #info next week's meeting is canceled, we need to coordinate about the publishing schedule on the list 13:00:41 ok, have to go, thanks all! 13:01:03 thanks 14:01:28 asamalik stickster cverna if any of you are around can you #endmeeting? 14:01:41 #endmeeting
