12:02:18 <rlengland> gregbartholomew: My apologies for dropping the ball on #191 and my thanks for all the corrections.

12:04:01 <gregbartholomew> #topic 1/ Last week's stats
12:06:22 <gregbartholomew> #info Week of April 5th: 59.6K pageviews -- a little down from the previous week
12:06:40 <gregbartholomew> I'm going to have to remember to get that ready ahead of time next time.
12:06:56 <gregbartholomew> #topic 2/ In progress followup
12:06:56 <gregbartholomew> #info Looking at the 'in progress' column, is there something that's been finished? Anything to follow up on with its author?
12:06:56 <gregbartholomew> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
12:07:29 <gregbartholomew> I want to try to move through these a little quicker this week. This column is getting to be a bit long.
12:08:30 <gregbartholomew> The authors for #290 and #283 are very experienced, no need to nudge them.
12:09:15 <gregbartholomew> #263 apears to be coming along fine.
12:09:32 <gregbartholomew> #151 has a note that it will take a while
12:10:14 <gregbartholomew> I think Ben said the the author for #279 was busy last week. I'm going to assume that that is still the case.
12:11:15 <gregbartholomew> #303 is still quite new. It looks like the author has initialized something in wordpress, so we'll leave him to it.
12:12:07 <gregbartholomew> The author on #258 hasn't responded in a while. Does anyone know the story with this one?
12:12:24 <gregbartholomew> I don't see anything in wordpress either.
12:12:44 <rlengland> No info from me
12:13:37 <gregbartholomew> Let's just leave it for now since we have plenty of other content at the moment.
12:14:38 <gregbartholomew> OK, the last three all have notes indicating that they are intentionally waiting for other events.
12:15:00 <gregbartholomew> So that's it for the "In Preview" column. :) Moving along ...
12:15:12 <gregbartholomew> #info Are there any upcoming test days?
12:15:13 <gregbartholomew> #link https://apps.fedoraproject.org/calendar/QA/
12:15:50 <gregbartholomew> I think these were all already handled in a "super" post last week.
12:16:08 <gregbartholomew> #topic 3/ Finished articles to review
12:16:09 <gregbartholomew> #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.
12:16:09 <gregbartholomew> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
12:16:36 <gregbartholomew> Hurray! We have 3 article ready for review this week!
12:17:25 <rlengland> I've done a pass through #306 and it looks pretty good. I'd say move it to edit
12:17:30 <gregbartholomew> Let's "prioritize" the "Prioritized bugs" one since that might be pertinent given that F34 was just released.
12:17:58 <bcotton> it was? :-)
12:18:14 <gregbartholomew> Oh, rather, the beta was.
12:18:14 <rlengland> :-)
12:18:25 <gregbartholomew> I'm running the beta now. :)
12:18:37 <gregbartholomew> So it was "released" for me at least. :)
12:19:12 <gregbartholomew> I've moved it to "To Edit".
12:20:38 <gregbartholomew> Oops, I clicked that "edit" link on #255. That was supposed to be a preview link. I hope I didn't bump the author off something he was working on.
12:21:16 <gregbartholomew> Now wordpress is being slow at generating the preview. :(
12:22:31 <rlengland> Did the author ever resolve the issue with Taiga display?
12:22:44 <rlengland> (for #255)
12:22:44 <gregbartholomew> I don't know.
12:23:04 <gregbartholomew> I guess the Taiga board wouldn't be a good place to ask this time. :)
12:23:32 <gregbartholomew> I'll be sure to check with him on discussion.fp.o. Thanks for the reminder.
12:24:04 <gregbartholomew> At a glance, this one looks to be OK. I'm going to go ahead and move it over to "To Edit".
12:25:25 <gregbartholomew> Looking at #170
12:26:39 <gregbartholomew> It looks pretty good to me.
12:26:47 <gregbartholomew> Does anyone see any problems with this one?
12:27:34 <rlengland> No
12:28:02 <gregbartholomew> OK. I'm going to move it over to the next column.
12:28:23 <gregbartholomew> #topic 4/ Articles to edit
12:28:24 <gregbartholomew> #info Looking at the 'to edit' column, assign an editor and a cover image creator.
12:28:24 <gregbartholomew> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
12:28:39 <rlengland> #305 has a note about waiting for some further changes. Should it be moved back to In Progress ?
12:29:34 <gregbartholomew> Probably. Let's do that to avoid any accidental publishing. :)
12:30:22 <rlengland> I'll work on the image for that in the mean time. He has given us a suggestion
12:30:24 <gregbartholomew> I'm working on #299. I'll finish editing it tonight and get it scheduled for Friday.
12:31:03 <gregbartholomew> Am I correct in thinking that you also have #306 in hand?
12:31:10 <rlengland> Yes
12:31:22 <gregbartholomew> Excellent.
12:31:44 <gregbartholomew> So I've got #255.
12:31:55 <gregbartholomew> Anyone else want #170?
12:32:32 <gregbartholomew> I can take it if not. I just don't really consider myself a Podman expert.
12:32:58 <rlengland> ...that's my hesitancy as well.
12:33:04 <gregbartholomew> OK, I'll take it.
12:33:19 <gregbartholomew> I do have some experience with containers.
12:34:12 <gregbartholomew> Alright then, moving on ...
12:34:20 <gregbartholomew> #topic 5/ Publishing schedule
12:34:20 <gregbartholomew> #info Looking at the 'queued' and 'to edit' columns, decide the publishing schedule for the next week period.
12:34:20 <gregbartholomew> #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.
12:34:20 <gregbartholomew> #link Board: https://teams.fedoraproject.org/project/asamalik-fedora-magazine/kanban
12:34:44 <rlengland> #300 is scheduled for today, I believe
12:35:06 <gregbartholomew> Oh right. Thanks for the reminder.
12:35:26 <bcotton> why didn't it get scheduled then?
12:36:14 <gregbartholomew> rlengland?
12:36:26 <bcotton> oh, it did, but not until 2000 UTC?
12:36:33 <rlengland> Ack!
12:36:43 <rlengland> I must have been asleep
12:37:23 <gregbartholomew> Can you fix that rlengland?
12:37:28 <rlengland> changed the time.  I should appear now, shouldn't it?
12:37:40 <gregbartholomew> I guess so.
12:37:59 <gregbartholomew> I'm not seeing it though.
12:38:07 <rlengland> nor me.
12:38:32 <bcotton> wordpress dashboard still shows it scheduled for 2000 UTC
12:38:51 <bcotton> Scheduled 2021/04/14 at 8:00 pm
12:39:22 <gregbartholomew> Still don't see it.
12:39:32 <gregbartholomew> There it is!
12:39:45 <gregbartholomew> Needed Ctrl+F5. :)
12:40:17 <rlengland> Sheesh.  Maybe I need a 'minder' to check up on me.
12:40:18 <gregbartholomew> So I guess you can move the card to scheduled rlengland.
12:40:23 <rlengland> will do
12:41:00 <gregbartholomew> Practice makes perfect they say. Are you ready to give #306 a try?
12:41:17 <gregbartholomew> Can I schedule it for Monday?
12:41:28 <rlengland> Yes. It should be done by then
12:42:27 <gregbartholomew> Done.
12:43:16 <gregbartholomew> Then it looks like I have #255 and #170 to do for Wednesday and Friday.
12:45:39 <gregbartholomew> #proposed PUBLISHING SCHEDULE: Fri 16 Apr 2021: #299 Optimizing DNF for the fedora-based home lab (image: glb, edit: glb) -- Mon 19 Apr 2021: #306 Fedora’s “Prioritized bugs” process and our approach to fixing bugs in general (image: @rlengland, edit: @rlengland) -- Wed 21 Apr 2021: #170 Tips for building smaller containers with Fedora (image: glb, edit: glb) -- Fri 23 Apr 2021: #255 How to use freenode
12:45:39 <gregbartholomew> with matrix with registration and identification (image: glb, edit: glb)
12:46:12 <gregbartholomew> Hmm the title on the freenode one caused a small glitch.
12:46:19 <rlengland> :-)
12:46:31 <gregbartholomew> I take it that that is a +1?
12:46:37 <rlengland> +1
12:47:03 <rlengland> just being a little flip.
12:47:14 <gregbartholomew> I don't like seeing so many "glb's", but I guess I'll +1 it too this time around. :)
12:47:52 <gregbartholomew> #agreed PUBLISHING SCHEDULE: Fri 16 Apr 2021: #299 Optimizing DNF for the fedora-based home lab (image: glb, edit: glb) -- Mon 19 Apr 2021: #306 Fedora’s “Prioritized bugs” process and our approach to fixing bugs in general (image: @rlengland, edit: @rlengland) -- Wed 21 Apr 2021: #170 Tips for building smaller containers with Fedora (image: glb, edit: glb) -- Fri 23 Apr 2021: #255 How to use freenode with m

12:48:23 <gregbartholomew> I guess the line is just a little too long. It show up as 2 posts on my screen.
12:48:25 <gregbartholomew> Oh well.
12:48:36 <rlengland> Mine too.
12:49:01 <gregbartholomew> #topic 6/ Editor of the Week
12:49:09 <gregbartholomew> Any takers?
12:50:09 <gregbartholomew> This really isn't my best hour personally.
12:50:39 <gregbartholomew> I wonder if we can request that this meeting be moved to a later hour?
12:50:49 <rlengland> nor mine.  It's 05:00 for me.
12:51:59 <rlengland> I don't feel like I have enough inside knowledge about all the moving parts to take on running the meeting, but I'm happy to continue editing
12:52:38 <bcotton> we only have US participants these days, so a later time would be nice
12:52:53 <gregbartholomew> Thanks bcotton.
12:52:59 <bcotton> and rlengland running the meeting is the easiest part. there's a script :-)
12:54:35 <Southern_Gentlem> it has always been said fedora is a meritocracy the people doing the work set the time
12:54:40 <gregbartholomew> I can take it next week regardless of the time, but if I'm going to be a more regular participant, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could find a later hour (or three) for the meeting bcotton.
12:55:09 <bcotton> feel free to propose something yourself :-)
12:55:14 <gregbartholomew> #info glb will be Editor of the Week next week
12:55:25 <Southern_Gentlem> there is a reason why there are more than one meeting channels
12:55:54 <gregbartholomew> OK. I'll see what is available that looks good on the schedule and propose it next week.
12:56:09 <gregbartholomew> #topic 7/ Open floor
12:56:40 <gregbartholomew> Any comments?
12:56:52 <rlengland> Yeah,
12:57:03 <gregbartholomew> BTW, thanks for the encouragement Southern_Gentlem. :)
12:57:38 <gregbartholomew> Make it quick rlengland. We are about out of time.
12:57:40 <rlengland> #296 #295  have been waiting for the author for a while. Should I ping him
12:57:54 <gregbartholomew> Sure.
12:58:09 <rlengland> Then, I'm out. Thanks
12:58:41 <gregbartholomew> That would be helpful in fact. I think "pinging" them when things get stalled is part of the editorial role. :)
12:58:53 <gregbartholomew> OK. Thanks everyone!
