  * LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14921&preview=1&_ppp=155d837a41
    (jflory7, 21:06:33)
  * Determined the wallpaper article is still an advanced concept to
    follow up on last week's introduction - going to abstract out one
    more concept before getting the Wallpaper Inkscape article to the
    publishing schedule  (jflory7, 21:12:19)
  * ACTION: ryanlerch Write an introduction to Fill and Stroke in
    Inkscape for Friday, 2016 Oct. 28  (jflory7, 21:12:42)

https://fedoramagazine.org/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft&post_type=post
    (jflory7, 21:14:42)
  * === "C99 feature support in GCC on Fedora Linux" ===  (jflory7,
    21:15:45)
  * LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14646&preview=1&_ppp=2397efa84a
    (jflory7, 21:15:49)
  * stickster reached out to a Fedora GCC maintainer for feedback,
    passed along those comments and feedback to the original author -
    have not yet received a response back, but if no word back by next
    week, this article can be moved to holding pen if we are unable to
    finish it  (jflory7, 21:16:44)
  * === "What is Fedora Hubs?" ===  (jflory7, 21:17:13)
  * LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14310&preview=1&_ppp=94f452606e
    (jflory7, 21:17:17)
  * jflory7 reached out to devyani7 on this article a while back and she
    has made some progress on writing it, but will follow up to see if
    we can set a target date for this one  (jflory7, 21:17:47)
  * === "Starting with Python in Fedora" ===  (jflory7, 21:18:00)
  * LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14577&preview=1&_ppp=fa7cd0a3cf
    (jflory7, 21:18:05)
  * ACTION: jflory7 Reach out to devyani7 about setting a target date
    for Fedora Hubs intro article  (jflory7, 21:18:51)
  * IDEA: Current article structure is a little confusing since it's a
    lot of abstract content - might be good idea to restructure article
    from a blank slate and cherry pick pieces from original  (jflory7,
    21:24:44)
  * IDEA: Writing a "Hello world!" program as first task in this article
    (jflory7, 21:24:53)
  * IDEA: Introducing Python in Fedora => Finding a development
    environment (installing libraries and IDEs from repos, etc.) =>
    Popular tools and Python tricks (pip in virtualenv, etc.) => Where
    to get help / learn more about Python in Fedora  (jflory7, 21:25:29)
  * ACTION: x3mboy Based on feedback from meeting, try rewriting the
    "Starting with Python in Fedora" from a blank slate, cherry-picking
    content from original article and adding in new pieces, aim for
    checking in at next week's meeting  (jflory7, 21:27:32)
  * ACTION: jflory7 File a featured image ticket for "Starting with
    Python in Fedora" in the fedoramagazine-images repo  (jflory7,
    21:28:14)

  * LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14475&preview=1&_ppp=4f214a5a7c
    (jflory7, 21:29:23)
  * IDEA: Pictures would help improve this article!  (jflory7, 21:32:34)
  * IDEA: Screenshots of terminal output can be converted to plaintext
    in the article post - screenshots of the final product would be
    helpful or other examples of projects  (jflory7, 21:33:31)
  * ACTION: stickster Reach out to sumantrom with editing advice /
    comments / feedback on the Web VR article and how to refine it
    further into a polished piece for the Magazine  (jflory7, 21:34:51)
  * Otherwise, if unable to make progress by end of next week, move this
    article to holding pen  (jflory7, 21:35:13)
  * === Security Tip articles ===  (jflory7, 21:37:25)

    out to Sylvia with feedback about how to make improved versions of
    these  (jflory7, 21:46:22)

    privacy in Firefox", explaining add-ons like Ghostery and Privacy
    Badger  (jflory7, 21:46:37)

  * === "Building Fedora Rawhide qcow2 images" ===  (jflory7, 21:48:56)
  * LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=15006&preview=1&_ppp=f73733af10
    (jflory7, 21:49:01)
  * Solid technical article that explains the "how" well  (jflory7,
    21:50:35)
  * IDEA: More introduction to kickstarts, Rawhide, qcow2, etc. would be
    helpful to set the article up  (jflory7, 21:50:55)

    you're using this for or what you would do with it after setting it
    up  (jflory7, 21:51:28)

* Articles for coming week(s)  (jflory7, 21:59:02)

    thing to cover!  (jflory7, 21:59:04)
  * IDEA: Fedora 25 Server edition has an SELinux Troubleshooter module
    built in! Wow! This would be super cool to cover too!  (jflory7,
    21:59:24)
  * Whoa, Cockpit now also supports 2FA authentication? How cool is
    that? A short-and-sweet Magazine article would be double-cool!
    (jflory7, 21:59:54)
  * IDEA: There's even the all-platform Fedora Media Writer for making
    your Fedora USBs at any time from any operating system! That's so
    amazing, I bet the Magazine team would love to have an article on
    the Fedora Media Writer!  (jflory7, 22:00:44)
