Hi folks,

I finished up my freeorion package and it's now pending karma in Bodhi. I wrote a "FreeOrion is coming to Fedora" article that I thought could be a cool way to tie back to the article last month about compiling and installing FreeOrion manually. Now that freeorion has an official package, I tried to angle this article with "how you can help contribute". I explain Bodhi briefly, and provide links to the packages.

I wrote an initial draft, but I think it needs some rework. I feel like it could be structured as:

1) Introduction - remember the other FreeOrion article? Well now freeorion is coming to Fedora, but... 2) It needs your help! Install with updates-testing and try out the game. Provide feedback on Bodhi. 3) What is Bodhi? Why does a staging/testing service exist? (maybe expose a bit of the "behind-the-curtain" about what purpose Bodhi serves to Fedora?)

Hey Link, thanks for helping work on this! I think this one might have missed the last editorial board meeting (couldn't find a mention of it in the logs). Since it's been some time since you sent this, I think it be in the stable repos proper now. After this week, I can spend some time to get it ready and add it to the publishing schedule (but I won't be able to do anything until next week).

Sorry it's taken so long for you to get a response here.

I revamped the article to the point where I *think* it's good for editing. I also revoked the freeorion updates in Bodhi since I fixed an upstream issue with license files. I'll be submitting a new build to Bodhi, so we can actually synchronize the publishing of the article with the releasing of the updates to testing. So whenever the stars align, we can publish both. My guess is after the holidays though, since schedules and vacations make coordination crazy.
