(full message at ) 16:05:45 Nothing to worry about for a while on the schedule. 16:06:25 🔹 skip topic 6 16:06:25 #topic 7/ open floor 16:06:53 Maybe I went a little too far?! 🙂 16:07:05 There are only 2 in-progress and I just pinged them both after 16 days. 16:07:32 I'm ready to publish #109 (Btrfs next installment) tomorrow. 16:08:07 I'll ping @hartan about his next article in that series today. 16:08:38 OK. Well, it sounds to me like you have everything well under control. 16:08:52 Our biggest problem is that we need more contributors. 16:09:36 Should we ping some of the latest "ideas" entries line 142 and 129? 16:09:49 Sounds good to me. 16:10:46 I'll do those two. If you have time to review #109 that would be nice but I think is is ready. He does a good job but I'm a novice with Btrfs. 16:11:10 I'm not that familiar with Btrfs myself. 16:11:20 But I'll look it over tonight. 16:11:57 Okay, Chris Murphy had not responded but I don't think we should wait. It's a procedure article so it looked good to me. 16:12:57 Well, I don't think I have much to add. 16:13:36 There was a mention of doing some work on the Fedora Magazine theme in the "Websites 3.0" team a while back. 16:14:34 Mainly I think they want to make the header consistent with the new header that will be used across all the Fedora Project pages starting with the Fedora Linux 38 release. 16:14:55 But FM is pretty much at the bottom of the barrel of their priorities. 16:15:21 They probably won't even start on that until after they get the main sites reworked. 16:15:54 Is this something that will require our participation or will they take that on? 16:16:20 It is a good question. 16:16:50 If it is something you think you could take on, they might be happy to have a few more helping hands. 16:17:19 They are using nuxt 3 and vue frameworks for the new theme. 16:17:36 I'd like to study up on it a bit myself if I can find the time. 16:17:49 :blank stare: 16:18:13 I suspect I won't be of much use since I'd have to figure out what their frame work is all about 16:18:27 I'm pretty much in the same boat. 16:19:20 But like I said, I might try to experiment with it a bit on my own to see if I can figure it out. More just for the fun of it though. I doubt I'd be able to contribute much. 16:19:54 Well, I think that is all the news I can think of that concerns Fedora Magazine. 16:20:43 I guess we need to try and do a "Come write for us" article but that hit the bottom of the list over T-day. Any Ideas of that front? 16:21:04 *on 16:21:41 I can't think of any good promotional gimmicks off-hand. 16:22:20 Marketing did say something about trying to do a writing competition. 16:22:23 Well I'll keep trying to find inspiration but the holidays are soaking up a lot of my time (already) 16:22:53 Oh that would be helpful. 16:23:20 Well, I kind of turned it down because I ddn't want to do the work of judging the entries. 16:23:41 If you want to pursue that though, just jump in on the ticket and say so. 16:23:56 Let me see if I can find the ticket real quick ... 16:24:17 oh,...yeah..... Same reason I never went into management. Don't like to judge other's work. 16:24:31 I think I'll pass. 16:25:29 https://gitlab.com/fedora/marketing/marketing-planning/-/issues/27 16:26:32 Well, if you do come up with any great marketing ideas, you can always create a ticket to discuss them on Marketing's gitlab issue tracker. 16:27:12 Okay. I also didn't go into marketing 😁 16:27:25 but I'll keep poking around for ideas 16:27:31 Thanks. 16:27:46 So do you want to end the meeting early? 16:28:49 Sure. I'm going to schedule #109 when we are done here. But feel free to edit if you find something egregious. (ooh, a big word I found a place to use) 16:29:38 #endmeeting
