Hi team, I've been spending some time this week working on our collaboration tools to see if we can't make it a lot easier to work together on designs. As mentioned earlier, we have a test imageboard up at http://publictest04.fedoraproject.org/artboard which is I think a good place to put work up to get feedback on, and to help other folks with their work by providing comments on it. I spent some time yesterday and trying to set up Sparkleshare with our fedorahosted repo. In the past, this did not work because fedorahosted was running a version of git that was too old to work with Sparkleshare. But our git was updated recently, so it now works. With Alex Hudson and Hylke's help we have new packages of Sparkleshare available for Fedora 13, Fedora 14, and Fedora 15 - based on my quick survey it seems like this will accommodate everyone that responded. I'm in the process of copying all of our shared files from fedorapeople.org/groups/designteam over into the Sparkleshare repo. Once that's finished, I think it would make sense to remove the files from our groups directory, and find another use for it. I will reply to this message once all of our files are available in the Sparkleshare repo. If you'd like to try out Sparkleshare yourself then, I've put together a HOWTO on it. Please let me know if you run into any trouble with the instructions - they *should* work on F13+ but I haven't tested it on all the different versions: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_connect_to_the_design_team_sparkleshare If you are asking yourself, 'what is Sparkleshare? huh?' the short answer is that it is a free and open source alternative to Dropbox that makes it so you'll have a special folder on your computer, and anything you copy to that folder, everyone on the design team who has it set up will be able to see. This should make it easier for us to share our work, especially source files since they are a pain to upload and we sometimes forget. Now we won't have to remember - as long as you keep them in the design team folder, we'll all have access. Also, could I ask a big favor? If you have design-team related files in your fedorapeople.org directory, would you mind copying them over to the Sparkleshare design team folder? That way we'll all have easier access. Let me know what you think.
