Townhall Log: [13] [14]
I'd also like to point out the following from Paul Frields' announcement
for the June 2008 Board Election:
"I'd like everyone voting to remember that this isn't a popularity
contest, or a reward system. Think about how you'd like to Board to look
when you vote, the same way you think about how you'd like any
government body to look when you cast votes for their elections. We have
a lot of worthy candidates on this list, and you should pick the ones
that you feel will best represent you in advancing the Fedora Project.
This is one of numerous ways in which our community makes decisions
about the leadership of Fedora. Your vote counts, and I hope you take
advantage of it."
This advice is still valid, not just for the Fedora Board election but
for all three elections.
Thanks also go to John Rose and other volunteers who have helped with
organising and running Town Hall meetings for these elections.”

--- FEDORA DEVELOPMENT ANNOUNCEMENTS ---
---- Fedora 10 final updates cutoff: December 11 ----
Josh Boyer reminded[1] the community on the fedora-devel-announce list
that December 11 would be the final day for any remaining Fedora 10 updates:
"Just a friendly reminder that Dec 11 00:00:00 UTC is the cutoff for F10
updates submission. Ideally these would just be the final stable
updates, as pushes to updates-testing would basically be stuck there
forever.
Please take a few moments to review your pending requests, add any final
stable updates you'd like pushed, and clear out any update requests that
don't make much sense for a soon to be EOL'd distro."

-- Ambassadors --
In this section, we cover Fedora Ambassadors Project[1].
Contributing Writer: Larry Cafiero

--- Fedora 12 release party in Athens, Greece ---
Pierros Papadeas reports that on Saturday, December 12, a Fedora 12
Release party was held in Athens. Many people showed up to learn about
Constantine and Fedora Project in general. A presentation on Fedora
Project and Fedora 12 was given and afterwards some hands-on testing was
done on network sharing, virtualization enhancements, Moblin platform
and other hints on support!
There was even a birthday cake to go along with the swag given out, as
well as Live-USB sticks available.
Pierros says thanks to my fellow organizers -- Anastasis, Thalia and
Pantelis -- and to everyone else who attended.
A report on the event can be found here:

--- Fedora 12 release party in Caracas, Venezuela ---
Maria Leandro reports that about 30 people attended a Fedora 12 Release
Party held in Caracas, Venezuela, on Saturday, December 12.
Guillermo Gomez (gomix) made the official presentation of RPMDEV.
Several Live CDs along with stickers and tattoos were given out prior to
everyone having lunch.
Maria also reports that the event exceeded several goals. First, they
got twice as many people to attend than was expected. Also, some
ambassadors who had been inactive came back into the fold.
Future plans in Caracas include having a Fedora hacklab every two months
to teach people to be productive using Fedora and encourage them to join
the Fedora team.
Special thanks go to Edwind Contreras (Richzendy), who gave an excelent
RPM workshop; to Guillermo Gómez (gomix), who brings awesome ideas; to
Wilmer Jaramillo (k0k), who is "coming to town" again encouraging new
users to be developers like he is; and to Ricardo Fernandez (KOSHrf),
who cheers us up all at every moment.

--- Fedora Ambassadors active in Tunisia ---
Zied Fakhfakh reports that while Tunisian Fedora ambassadors have been
silent for a while, "we are not sleeping."
Zied, Nihed Mbarek and Wael Ammar have started a lobbying strategy
around Fedora in the nation's universities by creating local "Fedora Clubs."
Two clubs have already been formed -- one in ISET Charguia:
http://www.isetch.rnu.tn (a public university); and one in ESPRIT:
http://www.esprit.ens.tn (a private university).
Activities have already taken place at ISET CH, including:
* A private mirror: created by Zied;
* A Fedora 12 release party, where the following was presented:
o What's new in Fedora 12, by Nihed;
o Virtualization, by Imed Chihi, former Red Hat employee;
o How to contribute to Fedora, by Zied;
o Open source software, by our friend Mohamed Nejib Bejar;
o There was a real celebration, with cake, soda, candy;
* Soon we are to migrate computers at the school to Fedora or
CentOS, and
* The group will start as soon as possible translating and
contributing.
--- FAmSCo election now open: Vote ---
Among other elected bodies in the Fedora Project, the Fedora Ambassadors
Steering Committee (FAmSCo) elections are now open for voting. If you
haven't done yet visit https://admin.fedoraproject.org/voting/ to cast
your vote. Voting ends Monday, December 14, at 23:59:59 UTC. Your vote
is important and crucial.
--- Fedora 12 is here ---
With Fedora 12 Constantine now here, this is a reminder that posting an
announcement of your event on Fedora Weekly News can help get the word
out. Contact FWN Ambassador correspondent Larry Cafiero at
lcafiero-AT-fedoraproject-DOT-org with announcements of upcoming events
-- and don't forget to e-mail reports after the events as well.
-- QualityAssurance --
In this section, we cover the activities of the QA team[1].
Contributing Writer: Adam Williamson

--- Test Days ---
There was no Test Day last week, and no Test Day is currently planned
for this week. If you would like to propose a main track Test Day for
the Fedora 13 cycle, please contact the QA team via email or IRC, or
file a ticket in QA Trac[1].

--- Weekly meetings ---
As the QA beat was unfortunately not present for Fedora Weekly News
#205, we will cover two weeks' worth of events below.
A QA group weekly meeting[1] was held on 2009-11-30. No meeting was held
on 2009-12-07 due to many group members being absent at FUDCon or
elsewhere. The full log of the 2009-11-30 meeting is available[2]. Adam
Williamson reported that he had started a development mailing list
conversation regarding the proposed privilege escalation policy[3].
James Laska thanked the group for their feedback on John Poelstra's plan
to improve the release criteria[4], and asked for comments on the
planned next steps. John said he was planning to work in all the
received feedback, send a revised draft of the page to the mailing list
for comment, and do the final touches in a hackfest at the upcoming
FUDCon. Adam Williamson volunteered to write a proposed paragraph to
cover subjective judgment of configuration-dependent problems.
Adam Williamson gave a more detailed update on the privilege escalation
policy topic. He said the development mailing list discussion had
generated some useful points and potential issues that should be dealt
with by any policy, but no clear road forward. With some help from Kevin
Fenzi, a plan was made for Adam to escalate the issue for consideration
by FESco with reference to the previous discussion, and possibly a
proposed policy created with the help of the security team.
James Laska gave an update on the Fedora 12 QA retrospective. He thanked
the group for their feedback, and outlined his plans. He intends to
organize the feedback into topic groups to try and identify trends, and
then discuss what can be improved for the Fedora 13 cycle based on that
feedback.
Will Woods and Kamil Paral reported on the progress of the AutoQA
project. Kamil had written some patches intended to make test
development easier, providing --help and --dry-run parameters for each
watcher. He now plans to document these improvements in the wiki once
they are accepted. He had also worked on integrating rpmguard into
AutoQA. Will had added --local and --dry-run parameters to the test
harness so that tests can be run locally by developers. He had fixed
various watchers to run tests only once when repositories are changed or
builds are run, even if multiple architectures are changed. He was
planning to write some notes on AutoQA for Fedora developrs for use at
the upcoming FUDCon, and help Kamil with rpmguard integration. James
Laska reported that packaging of the israwhidebroken code was now
complete, with help from Toshio Kuratomi.
Adam Williamson proposed that Glögg[5] be adopted as the official QA
team drink. Jesse Keating suggested magic hobo gravy[6] as an
alternative. No clear consensus was reached on the issue.
A Bugzappers group weekly meeting[7] was held on 2009-12-01. No meeting
was held on 2009-12-08 due to many members being absent. The full log of
the 2009-12-01 meeting is available[8]. Richard June noted that updating
the components and triagers page[9] had been left with Edward Kirk, who
was not present to report on it. Adam Williamson encouraged all group
members to make sure they were listed on the page next to the correct
components.
Adam Williamson started a discussion on the topic of anaconda triage. He
explained that the anaconda team could benefit from having a triage
volunteer, as Andy Lindeberg was no longer working on anaconda triage.
This would take a significant amount of time and require knowledge of
anaconda, but the anaconda team was prepared to help train volunteers.
Richard June volunteered to send a mail to the mailing list with details
of the requirements, to ask for volunteers.
Adam Williamson took another look at the triage metrics situation.
No-one had heard from Brennan Ashton lately, but Adam would try to check
in with him at the upcoming FUDCon event. Adam also pointed out the
fairly new statistics system within Bugzilla[10] as a possibility for
the group to explore.
Matej Cepl reported that he had completed the agreed plan to add the
Triaged keyword to all ASSIGNED bugs in Fedora 10 through 12.
The next QA weekly meeting may be held on 2009-11-07 at 1600 UTC in
#fedora-meeting, although several group members are at FUDCon during
that time and may not be able to attend. The next Bugzappers weekly
meeting will be held on 2009-12-08 at 1500 UTC in #fedora-meeting.

--- FUDCon Toronto ---
The QA and BugZappers groups were both well represented at FUDCon
Toronto[1]. James Laska, Will Woods, Adam Williamson, John Poelstra,
Steven M. Parrish, Brennan Ashton (comphappy) all attended, and a brand
new BugZapper - Patrick Ian - was welcomed during the event. Steven,
Will and Adam all gave talks: Steven[2] on effective bug reporting,
Will[3] on AutoQA, and Adam[4] on getting involved with QA and
BugZappers. Several group members also posted write-ups of the event:
John[5], Steven[6], and Adam[7].

--- BugZappers triaged bugs policy change ---
Adam Williamson announced[1] a small modification to the
recently-implemented triaged bug policy change. To make searching
easier, triagers should now add the Triaged keyword to all Fedora 11 and
Fedora 12 bugs when they have been triaged, as well as marking them as
ASSIGNED.

--- Release criteria revision ---
John Poelstra posted a final request[1] for feedback on the proposed new
release criteria[2], noting that the pages would be finalized and made
active at the upcoming FUDCon Toronto. At FUDCon, a group including
John, James Laska, Adam Williamson, Bill Nottingham and Tim Burke
revised the pages including all feedback provided from the list, and
then made further revisions based on feedback by the anaconda and
desktop teams. Adam announced the changes to the list[3]. Some further
changes were then made based on suggestions from A. Mani[4] and others.

Infrastructure team to distribute the tasks in the to-do list for
upgradation to the new version of Transifex as proposed by Diego. He
also called for assistance from the Fedora Documentation, Devel and
Infrastructure teams to assist in the upgrade process.

--- Mentoring of New Members ---
The co-ordinator of the Simplified Chinese team, Yuan Yijun suggested
the introduction of a mentoring process within the Fedora Localization
Process, that would help new translators to be made familiar with the
work flow and allow them to make prolonged contribution within the

--- Improving the Fedora Community Website ---
Máirín Duffy posted[1] some usability observation from the user
interaction with the Fedora Community website during the Toronto FUDCon
"there was definitely a lot of confusion shown through the tests - and
we weren't really 100% happy with it to start" along with a couple of
improvement mockups and asked for feedback "On the FUDbus back home I
started trying some of her ideas -on the left, the nav bar could
slideback and slide out on demand, and I tried making the right navbar
look more 'navigation-y' rather than like it is little ads or something
not relevant to the content."
