Put me down for Friday. I'll see what my calendar looks like tomorrow 00:16:04 <ke4qqq> +1 the scope is just a bit large at the moment and I don't think any of us have spent the time looking at all ~20 tickts/packages. 00:16:11 <ianweller> stickster: who are you again? 00:16:11 <ianweller> ;) 00:16:26 <stickster> The guy who capitalizes stuff 00:16:32 <ianweller> everything but your nick 00:16:47 <ianweller> moving on! 00:16:49 <ianweller> :) 00:17:12 <Sparks> Okay... anything else on the Zikula stuff? 00:17:22 <stickster> So ACTION - ianweller, stickster, Sparks(?), ke4qqq(?) to look at status with a magnifying glass on Friday 00:17:54 <Sparks> #ACTION ianweller stickster Sparks ke4qqq to look at status on Zikula on Friday to make sure everything is getting done. 00:18:24 * ianweller isn't sure if it takes CAPITALIZED commands 00:18:31 <Sparks> #action ianweller stickster Sparks ke4qqq to look at status on Zikula on Friday to make sure everything is getting done. 00:18:39 <Sparks> #lights #camera 00:18:40 <stickster> We'll soon find out ;-) 00:19:00 <jjmcd> C programmers - sheesh 00:19:06 <Sparks> Okay...

I'm not sure that User Guide is an appropriate name. 00:42:30 <danielsmw> If we go this new route per rudi's suggestions and my thoughts. 00:42:39 <ianweller> Do Stuff Guide 00:42:41 <danielsmw> Because it would be more like a mixture of an FAQ and a cookbook 00:42:54 <danielsmw> Like a Fedora Desktop Cookbook 00:42:55 <danielsmw> or something 00:42:59 <Sparks> cool 00:42:59 <ianweller> ooh i like that. 00:43:04 <ianweller> very much like that. 00:43:08 <danielsmw> thanks ianweller :) 00:43:19 <danielsmw> One other poll question 00:43:27 <danielsmw> The audience for this document.... 00:43:57 <danielsmw> I was thinking about this: is it for the previously computerless new user? or is it for someone who probably new what they were doing in windows and wants to get involved in linux now? 00:44:10 <ianweller> both. 00:44:17 <danielsmw> ianweller: that's what i was afraid of 00:44:19 <rudi> I agree, both 00:44:24 <ianweller> danielsmw: i know it's scary 00:44:34 <danielsmw> Okay, that's still fine. 00:44:44 <rudi> Buuut, don't overestimate the degree to which "they knew what they were doing in Windows" 00:44:54 <danielsmw> lol 00:45:05 <danielsmw> I'm not sure how much one can know what they're doing in windows, 00:45:07 <danielsmw> but i get what you mean. 00:45:07 <rudi> I didn't mean that in an entirely cynical way 00:45:21 <danielsmw> Right 00:45:22 <danielsmw> But I mean 00:45:38 <danielsmw> I don't need to explain mouse usage or how to insert a CD. 00:45:39 <rudi> More that 90% of people spend 90% of their time at their home/small business computers doing the same small number of tasks 00:45:56 <rudi> There's an element of self-selection here... 00:45:56 <Sparks> packaging? 00:46:26 <danielsmw> Oh, and as for contributing upstream 00:46:31 <rudi> I think those things are at an even more basic level than we can really cater to 00:46:32 <danielsmw> per rudi's email's suggestion 00:46:39 <danielsmw> I think that will be more doable in the new format as well. 00:46:44 <danielsmw> As would be pulling from downstream. 00:46:50 <danielsmw> So that could help a lot with the rewriting process. 00:47:26 * rudi emphasises that wherever we can reuse existing text, we need to make an effort to do so, to ease the load on l10n 00:47:36 <danielsmw> rudi: understood 00:47:47 <danielsmw> And with that, the brevity drought I tend to bring on is at an end. 00:48:46 <Sparks> Cool 00:49:04 <Sparks> Anyone have anything for the User Guide/Fedora Desktop Cookbook? 00:49:27 * rudi really dislikes the "Cookbook" title, but will take it to the mailing list 00:50:06 <Sparks> noted 00:50:15 <Sparks> Okay... I have a request for the Security Guide 00:50:50 <Sparks> So I finally got it approved and submitted the SRPM but it fails to build in koji. 00:51:04 <Sparks> #link http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1474242&name=build.log 00:51:21 <Sparks> Being that this should affect all Publican patches I'm trying to get it figured out. 00:51:25 <Sparks> I just don't understand this one. 00:52:08 <Sparks> So if anyone has any ideas please get with me after the meeting 00:52:18 <Sparks> Anyone have anything else for existing guides? 00:52:59 <Sparks> #topic New Guides 00:53:02 <Sparks> Tsagadai: Go 00:53:31 <Tsagadai> yes 00:54:05 <Tsagadai> I have been writing the Virtualization Guide for some time 00:54:21 <Tsagadai> It's time to send the good stuff upstream 00:55:03 <Sparks> Tsagadai: what format? DocBook? 00:55:09 <Tsagadai> Docbook 00:55:14 <Tsagadai> about 300 pages :) 00:55:20 <rudi> (and already Publicanized) 00:55:30 <Sparks> +1000 00:56:15 <ianweller> +9000 00:56:40 <Sparks> Tsagadai: We can set you up on docs.fp.o if you like 00:56:55 <Tsagadai> that would be great 00:57:41 <Sparks> Tsagadai: Great.
