If you'd like company, just holler to the logistics list and we'll see if anyone's free to join in on the fun (if I'm free, I'll certainly be there). >> 3.

(the easy one:) What should these two groups be called? newswriter and newseditor, maybe? 2. What privileges in zikula should each group have, in zikula-speak? (Probably a question for upstream/Simon, in interpreting your requirements.) 3. What needs to happen to get those groups created (with Pascal as the initial owner) and hooked into zikula as described? We'd need to follow a similar process once more for Marketing once we start adding Marketing content, but we're just getting News going for now. >> Thoughts?

This sounds like a good idea - we tried once to restart those meetings, but nobody really picked up on it. If there's a time (on Wednesday night or otherwise) that works for you, I'm happy to hop in and be your minion for this, and we'll see who else we can get to come. ;) When is good? My meeting calendar is relatively open in the EST afternoons, with the exception of Tuesday (which is claimed by Marketing from 2000-2100 UTC/3-4pm EST in winter). --Mel _______________________________________________ news mailing list news@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/news
