Anything to follow up on with its author? 12:06:17 #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban 12:06:44 So #94 does still need some work 12:07:50 when I did some editing this week, it was good till I got to the example section 12:09:15 #94 was originally scheduled to publish but stickster moved it back to in progress 12:09:20 ? 12:09:33 Which was that one? 12:09:48 butterfly 12:09:49 the butterfly backup 12:09:52 yup 12:09:59 I agree with that move btw 12:10:18 Oh, it was because when I visited it, the author was back in the article working on it. It's definitely not ready to publish when I looked at it yesterday. The English usage in it needs substantial editing 12:10:59 But it may be ready to edit... Does anyone know whether the author is in our Taiga? 12:11:17 Oh, just saw card updates, sorry jakfrost 12:11:25 NP 12:12:08 I'll try to contact them again. I couldn't add them yesterday as a member by email 12:12:34 #185 looks like it could go to review 12:12:55 I wouldn't be surprised if the author just wants to drop the article with us without any accounts or anything. That's a risk we run by having people advertise personal projects this way. 12:13:00 i dunno, the review is "add some text" imo 12:13:21 bcotton:which? 12:13:29 185 is more of a checklist than a magazine article at the moment 12:13:40 yes, I see your point 12:14:01 still IP then 12:14:29 Yeah, the author needs to make it look less like a blog and more like a semi-authoritative article 12:14:48 yeah. note that the author on the card doesn't match the author in the article either 12:15:00 really? 12:15:29 we asked the card author two weeks ago if they were still interested and willing to work on the in-progress draft and they haven't replied 12:16:50 So we asked Kumar or Asghar? 12:16:56 and that draft was last modified on 19 jan 12:17:08 "@Tushar Kumar are you still interested in working with this (perhaps with @jjasghar who has a draft in progress)?" 12:17:59 #234 is still in progress but pretty much as it was last week, low on content 12:18:34 235 seems like it could move forward though 12:18:48 what he said^^ 12:19:32 #237 has no preview yet 12:21:24 * stickster adds a comment to #234 12:22:49 #238 I can't seem to find the authors email 12:24:14 I commented on the card for the author 12:24:41 #topic 3/ Finished articles to review 12:24:41 #info Looking at the 'review' column, let's decide which articles are good to go. Move each either to the 'to edit' (finished) or to the 'in progress' (needs more work) and provide feedback. 12:24:41 #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban 12:25:14 looks like 2 in 1 12:25:22 #232 the web of trust. Is this a two parter 12:25:49 yes it is 12:27:34 #action jakfrost to contact author of #238 and add them as writer to card 12:28:05 #232 (both articles) looks good to edit 12:28:49 asamalik: should we make it two cards or leave it as one? 12:29:43 it might be worth splitting it so we can plan/assign/process them individually, yeah 12:30:54 +1 12:31:36 jakfrost: I can make another card so you can move on 12:31:49 whoops never mind, there it is! 12:32:04 stickster: made it but you can finish please 12:32:36 that is all in review 12:32:40 #topic 4/ Articles to edit 12:32:41 #info Looking at the 'to edit' column, assign an editor and a cover image creator. 12:32:41 #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban 12:33:10 I think the web of trust articles are ready to go for edit 12:34:57 But that is two articles on the same topic in a row, unless we bring #235 forward 12:34:58 I can do images for these; there's a good picture there (licensed OK) 12:35:10 I think waiting a week between to publish makes sense 12:35:11 stickster++ 12:36:46 Do we want to edit #235? the btrfs restore from snapshot 12:37:34 It looks more or less ready to edit 12:37:49 I'm really sorry, I need to disappear because of another meeting 12:38:03 Thanks asamalik, we'll assign you something :-) 12:38:04 that's okay, have a good meting 12:38:08 I can take the editor of the week next week 12:38:19 asamalik++ done 12:38:25 jakfrost: I can edit #235 so it can be published Monday 12:38:48 Sounds good, do you need the image done by someone? 12:38:55 Nah, I can handle it 12:39:31 okay so I think I can move to the next topic 12:39:54 jakfrost: One hint... 12:39:54 #topic 5/ Publishing schedule 12:39:54 #info Looking at the 'queued' and 'to edit' columns, decide the publishing schedule for the next week period. 12:39:54 #info If there is not enough content, we might also need to look at the 'in progress' or even the 'article spec' columns come up with additional content. 12:39:54 #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban 12:40:00 uhoh 12:40:04 Let's #action things like these too, it makes the minutes easier to read 12:40:09 it's OK, no worries going ahead 12:40:16 i'm trigger happy 12:40:30 you could #undo a bunch of times, but....meh 12:40:40 I'm trying to get onto that #action thang 12:40:47 #action stickster do images for web of trust articles (#232/#239) 12:41:00 #action stickster edit/image btrfs snapshot article (#235) 12:41:09 #action bcotton to get jakfrost onto that #action thang 12:41:10 go right ahead 12:41:13 lol 12:41:25 you have done this before?
