Thanks everyone for another productive week in Fedora design! Highlights: 1 - Fedora 14 Wallpaper Concept =============================== NEED FEEDBACK Well, kick ass, we have an awesome wallpaper concept we agreed on last week! But we've nary heard a peep in feedback on it! Whoops. We didn't blog it to solicit feedback, nor did we reach out in other venues. Eek. To remedy this: - KyleBaker put together a wiki page to collect feedback: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F14_Artwork_Feedback - Mizmo will write a blog post advertising the new theme selection and asking for feedback - Schendje will post to fedoraforum.org and to users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to get feedback - RyanLerch will post to identi.ca and twitter to get feedback TIME IS RUNNING OUT! The Fedora 14 wallpaper's got to be ready-to-go for F14 alpha by July 27. Only a couple of weeks. PLEEEEAAASSSE download the sources (http://fedorapeople.org/~kybaker/F14_wallpaper/) and have a play with it - let's iterate and make it more awesome for alpha! SUPPLEMENTAL WALLPAPER Fabsh is managing the F14 supplemental wallpaper collection. They are due August 19th. The wiki page to collect submissions is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F14_Artwork_Supplemental_Wallpapers_Submissions Fabsh will advertise the supplemental wallpaper collection via blog, twitter/identi.ca, and mailing list starting tomorrow. 2 - New Fedora fonts ==================== We're still testing out Comfortaa and waiting for Johan to change the license. In the meantime, let's identify any missing glyphs in our respective languages to point them out. We talked about Cantarell vs Droid Sans for the body text font. A number of us agreed we like Cantarell better because it's more unique and because Dave used FLOSS to create it. - tomorrow nicubunu will send an email with the codes and info for missing glyphs (ș and ț) - nicubunu identified a bug with unsetting bold using Cantarell in Inkscape. Luya pointed out a workaround - ctrl+shift+T. - nicubunu to contact Dave Crossland re missing ș and ț in Cantarell 3 - fedoraproject.org website redesign ====================================== Mizmo talked a little bit about the fedoraproject.org redesign. The schedule for the work is here: http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-14/f-14-web-tasks.html She also posted a couple of mockups for the project: http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/webdesign/fedoraproject.org/fedoraproject.org.3.png http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/webdesign/fedoracommunity.org/fedoracommunity.org.5.png Schendje expressed interest in helping. Mizmo pointed out two potential paths to helping out: * Content review of existing www.fpo content (just static web pages, no wiki or anything like that) * Brainstorming / soliciting folks to write articles for www.fpo static content. As a result of this discussion: - Schendje will take up the content review task of www.fpo. This will involve going through the static content of www.fedoraproject.org, reviewing it for general correctness / grammatical issues / etc., identifying if there is any useful information missing from the existing content, and soliciting ideas from the community (potentially via blog and mailing list posts) on what other content might be useful) - Ryan Lerch will message the Fedora docs list to see if we have any tutorial content or any folks willing to write tutorial content for the www.fpo static articles - mizmo will add netbooks to the www.fpo test plan - mizmo will do a mockup for a mobile version of www.fpo - mizmo will do a call for proposals for the new www.fpo content 4 - New Join Fedora Design team page ==================================== Michael put together a draft suggestion for improving the design team join page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_Design_Team - mizmo will start a thread on the design team list to get Michael more detailed feedback on the draft. 5 - Tickets =========== - Pierros is still working on tickets 138 & 139 - Schendje finished ticket 144 (yay!) - No new tickets this week (ran over time for the meeting) 6 - Marketing interviews ======================== - Nothing new to report yet. Still open business from last week: =================================== - 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. ====== Full logs/etc: Minutes: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-design/2010-07-13/fedora-design.2010-07-13-19.00.html Minutes (text): http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-design/2010-07-13/fedora-design.2010-07-13-19.00.txt Log: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-design/2010-07-13/fedora-design.2010-07-13-19.00.log.html ~m _______________________________________________ design-team mailing list design-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
