Highlights; 1 - Fedora 14 Default Wallpaper Concept We picked Kyle Baker's proposal as the default wallpaper for Fedora 14. (more at: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2010-July/002772.html 2 - Fedora Branding Fonts We decided to try out Comfortaa as a titling font, and Droid sans for body text tentatively. Both Muffin (Fedora-fr community magazine) and the newest Design team bounty (Fedora presentation template) will be our testbed for us to decide how we like these fonts. We could potentially change the Fedora logotype to the FLOSS titling font we choose, but that will need to involve Red Hat approval as the trademark is owned by Red Hat. Just something to consider. 3 - Trac tickets This was a very productive trac week. Nicu completed https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/141 with a great blog post on hackergotchi design: Good Hackergotchis for Everyone http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/2010/07/good-hackergotchis-for-everyone.html Jef completed https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/55 with a great blog post & wiki page on hackergotchi banners: Introducing Hackergotchi Ribbons http://jefsblog.wordpress.com/2010/07/04/introducing-hackergotchi-ribbons/ Hackergotchi Ribbons Wiki Page https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Hackergotchi_ribbons For next week, Pierros will be focusing on ticket #138 and ticket #139 for identifying missing hackergotchis and hackergotchis needing improvement. Also, Jef will take on ticket https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/142 with Nicu's (cc'ed) help. 4 - Marketing team design team member interviews The marketing team will start off design team member interviews with Luya. Luya's interview will focus on the Fedora-fr Muffin magazine project, show some screenshots of the design, maybe have a highlight on Scribus. The next victi^W willing volunteers :) up (not in any order) are: - Interview with Nicu Buculei on how he got started with Open Clip Art and also highlighting openclipart.org as a tool for designers (maybe have a sidebar on OCAL/Inkcape integration feature?), maybe explaining public domain and SVGs? - Interview with Tatica Leandro on her Gimp podcasts and how they are used in SA high schools, and maybe do a highlight on using Gimp as a tool. - Interview Jef van Schendel on how he got started with the design team via Design Team bounty, maybe highlight open office as a tool since he used that for his bounty? - Martin Sourada / Nicu Buculei / Pierros Papadeas - interview on their presentation of the Fedora design team process at Libre Graphics Meeting 2010, maybe with a highlight on LGM and what it's about and its history? - Máirín Duffy could talk about how she uses Inkscape to create UI mockups and show some off for the article. 5 - Other Mel will ask Matt Jadud, a design professor, on what types of activities he'd like his students to work on when they help out the Fedora design team starting in the fall. Based on that, we'll suggest things they can get involved with. Michael Beckwidth put together a draft Join page for the design team and we'll discuss his mockup next meeting: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_Design_Team Jef will be putting together some Fedora Summer Coding hackergotchi ribbons.
