I wrote a little program to make the calendars 14:18:50 <randomuser> #info remember to work on RNs as you have time, and encourage others to do so 14:19:10 <randomuser> #action randomuser to update RNs schedule on wiki 14:19:33 <randomuser> thanks for bringing that one up, Sparks 14:19:46 <randomuser> anything else on the topic? 14:20:27 * jreznik is reading... 14:22:08 * jreznik prefers having schedules on one place - it's easier to manage changes 14:22:17 <randomuser> I agree, really 14:22:50 <randomuser> jreznik, I'll try and keep an eye of for when you start publishing taskjuggler schedules - should have a template worked out by then 14:22:51 <jreznik> zoglesby: I think we're almost set - there was that discussion for server product but I expect this week/next week we can have clear schedule ready 14:23:19 <zoglesby> jreznik: perfect! 14:24:21 <jreznik> btw. tj is already published http://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-21/ but not linked on the wiki, I can update it (kinda happy it's not as visible for now) 14:24:42 <randomuser> yeah, good idea thre 14:25:46 <jreznik> btw once we're on this topic - how confident are you with .next release notes to be done according to the current no earlier schedule? 14:26:23 <randomuser> 80% 14:27:04 <randomuser> 100% confident we'll be able to publish something on schedule, 80% confident that what we publish will be adequately comprehensive 14:27:12 <zoglesby> randomuser: I think we are doing good, we are ahead of the schedule as of now 14:27:19 <jreznik> good 14:27:24 <zoglesby> randomuser: ah, yeah I agree with that 14:28:17 <randomuser> The idea of devel & qa helping out is starting to catch on, though 14:29:04 <randomuser> let's talk about publishing 14:29:13 <randomuser> #topic Publican and Publishing 14:30:01 <randomuser> There was a CVE fix applied to libxml2 because it would accept external includes even when it wasn't supposed to 14:30:18 <randomuser> and for one reason or another, that broke publican 14:30:51 <Sparks> randomuser: I always enjoy a good program that uses a vulnerability to support functionality. 14:31:08 <randomuser> It works with the newer version of libxml2 in F20, but not the current in el6, so I've filed a ticket to ask releng to let us tag libxml2 into el6-docs 14:31:48 <randomuser> Sparks, http://xkcd.com/1172/ 14:32:27 <Capesteve> Hello, lnovice sends apologies, she cannot connect to freenode at the moment 14:32:50 <randomuser> I'm honestly not sure if the CVE has been addressed in the version I tested, but if we can't trust the people we've given commit and publishing access to, we have bigger problems 14:33:32 <randomuser> Capesteve, welcome, and thanks for relaying 14:33:58 <randomuser> rkratky, any news on improving the site presentation? 14:34:31 <Sparks> randomuser: +1 14:34:48 <rkratky> randomuser, i haven't had that much time this past week, but i've been doing at least a little bit. 14:35:08 <randomuser> great, thank you 14:35:17 <Sparks> randomuser: trust the people we've given commit access to??? Because we vet them so well? I mean, come on, I've got commit access. 14:35:24 <randomuser> heh 14:35:33 <Sparks> randomuser: And jsmith 14:35:35 <rkratky> however, when i was mucking around with the old code, i got so frustrated that i don't really understand those bits of JS that seem to crop up everywhere that i just scratched it. 14:35:43 <randomuser> Sparks, why aren't any of your commits signed? 14:36:08 <rkratky> so, i made a fresh start start this weekend: rkratky.fedorapeople.org/docsweb/ 14:36:13 <randomuser> rkratky, yeah, it's confusing for me too 14:36:13 <zoglesby> randomuser: because I can't sign them when I push as him 14:36:17 <Sparks> randomuser: You don't want to know. 14:36:21 * jsmith has nothing new to add... 14:36:49 <rkratky> it's just a start, but i think we could go from there (yruseva promised to pretty it up) 14:36:51 <randomuser> rkratky, that's a good looking mockup 14:37:06 <Sparks> jsmith: I love how your comments are totally valid when just waking up mid-meeting. "Wha?!? Umm... yeah, sounds good to me." 14:37:40 <rkratky> and, i was thinking... do we really need all that old JS logic? it seem overly complicated, untidy, and most of all unmaintainable. 14:37:43 <Sparks> zoglesby: Did I not provide you a copy of my keys? I'll get them to you. 14:37:57 <jsmith> Sparks: and I love how you drop my name into a conversation, just to see if I'm paying attention. (Now get off my lawn!) 14:37:58 <Sparks> rkratky: Are you speaking of Publican? 14:38:06 <randomuser> rkratky, we'd have to investigate where it needs to be ripped out of 14:38:11 <Sparks> jsmith: Go back to sleep. 14:38:14 <rkratky> instead, we could just fire up wordpress or drupal and use s/t that updates itself 14:38:20 <jsmith> Sparks: I've been up since 3:30am 14:38:30 <randomuser> the brand, the homepage, the upstream publican web_style.... 14:38:30 <Sparks> jsmith: Exactly 14:38:35 <zoglesby> rkratky: the issue is that publican generates all of that code 14:38:40 <Capesteve> sorry, s/lnovice/novich/ {not a Freudian slip} 14:38:42 <randomuser> jsmith, why would you do that to yourself! 14:38:47 <rkratky> Sparks, no, publican is fine, just web end of things 14:39:09 <randomuser> rkratky, publican creates the web end of things. We've done exactly zero html coding. 14:39:23 <rkratky> zoglesby, publican generates the JS? 14:39:38 <Sparks> rkratky: Yes. And it used to be much more horrid. 14:39:47 <zoglesby> rkratky: yep 14:39:50 <Sparks> rkratky: Like, poke your eyes out horrid. 14:40:01 <zoglesby> rkratky: the new version may be more sane, but I would not count on it 14:40:05 <randomuser> rkratky, if you wanted to create a completely different frontend, I'd look at generating something from the sqlite db 14:40:13 <jjmcd> Isn't that the definition of JS? 14:40:18 <Sparks> jjmcd: +1 14:40:30 <Sparks> jjmcd: At least we've scripted it now. ;) 14:40:35 <jjmcd> ;) 14:40:43 <randomuser> the one bit of js there that I think is essential is the language redirect 14:40:50 <Sparks> "Here, go make this awful thing for me. I'll be back in a while." 14:40:50 <randomuser> or that functionality, at least 14:41:21 <randomuser> Sparks, tag, i have to take a phone call 14:41:27 <rkratky> well, to tell the truth, after two days of poking around the current setup, i wasn't able to get it to look like anything i wanted 14:41:37 <Sparks> randomuser: I wonder if we couldn't do something similar in Drupal. 14:42:11 <zoglesby> Sparks: Are we getting in to the time machine again, we did this in 2008ish 14:42:15 <Sparks> Okay, anything else for Publican and Publishing? 14:42:24 <randomuser> I'm sure it's possible. And I think the structure could be parsed out of the sqlite fairly cleanly 14:42:29 <Sparks> zoglesby: Don't make me comment on that. 14:42:42 <Sparks> randomuser: I've got the conn 14:43:09 <Sparks> Okay, moving on... 14:43:12 <Sparks> #topic Fedora.next Product Updates 14:43:25 <Sparks> zoglesby: What say you WRT .next Server? 14:43:28 <zoglesby> I have nothing new on products this week 14:43:37 <zoglesby> oh, docker 14:43:44 * zoglesby is done now 14:43:47 <randomuser> Sparks has the conn, aye 14:44:08 <Sparks> zoglesby: Did you... did you really just use the D word? 14:44:26 <Sparks> randomuser: .next Workstation? 14:44:49 <randomuser> I'll probably mail the list again and ask them for some requirements 14:44:53 <Sparks> Okay 14:45:03 <Sparks> jsmith: .next Cloudy things? 14:45:04 <randomuser> taking some inspiration from adamw 14:46:12 <Sparks> jsmith: ? 14:46:30 <jsmith> Nothing new from the Cloudy side of town 14:46:34 <Sparks> Okay 14:46:38 <jsmith> I'll bring it up in their weekly meeting again this week 14:46:46 <Sparks> Awesome 14:46:51 <Sparks> #topic Guide Status 14:47:09 <Sparks> Anyone have anything WRT a guide, article, or book they are hacking on? 14:47:27 * jsmith hopes to find time to hack on the Documentation Guide a bit more this week 14:48:53 <Sparks> jsmith: Yeah, we really need to put more into that guide and get it out soon. 14:49:20 <Sparks> jsmith: Feel free to poke me with ideas if you run out of cycles (like I have any to spare but...) 14:49:29 <Sparks> Anyone else? 14:49:33 <randomuser> ! 14:49:50 <Sparks> randomuser: Yes, you boy on the front row with your hand raised. 14:50:34 <randomuser> proposal: assemble a list of wiki pages we'd rather have in the documentation guide, commit it to the documentation guide repo, mark WIP/Complete, edit content out of wiki when done 14:50:58 <randomuser> also, haha 14:52:16 <randomuser> EOF 14:52:37 <Sparks> randomuser: Yes. Perhaps even just add them to a category (something like [[Category:Move to Documentation Guide]] to make it easier for people to find when they have some spare time to tinker. 14:52:47 <jjmcd> What is the status of that wiki -> docbook thingie? 14:52:55 <Sparks> jjmcd: Which one? 14:53:05 <Sparks> jjmcd: The one we were working on with ianweller? 14:53:07 <jjmcd> Ian's weird thing 14:53:08 <jjmcd> yeah 14:53:18 <zoglesby> long dead? 14:53:22 <jjmcd> Last I used it it was working again 14:53:28 <jjmcd> But that was a while back 14:53:30 <Sparks> jjmcd: Probably DOA. Perhaps we should try to kickstart it again. 14:53:50 <Sparks> jjmcd: Oh, I've never known it to actually work. 14:53:59 <Sparks> jjmcd: Perhaps I've been asleep at the wheel, again. 14:54:02 <jjmcd> I've used it quite a bit 14:54:08 <jjmcd> It can be quite a time saver 14:54:34 <Sparks> jjmcd: Can you send something to the list about it? 14:54:57 <jjmcd> mw_render 14:55:04 <Sparks> Okay, moving on as we are running short on time. 14:55:10 <Sparks> #topic Open floor discussion (5 minutes) 14:55:20 <Sparks> Anyone going to SouthEast LinuxFest? 14:55:34 <zoglesby> oh, oh, me me! 14:56:03 <Sparks> I'm hoping we'll see a few folks from the Fedora camp there. 14:56:19 * jsmith is *not* going :-( 14:56:35 <Sparks> jsmith: Boo 14:56:59 <jsmith> Sparks: I know -- but real life sometimes conflicts with things I'd like to do 14:57:23 <jjmcd> RL can be a real pain 14:57:24 <Sparks> jsmith: Bah, real life is so overratted 14:57:33 <Sparks> overrated even. 14:57:35 <jsmith> C'est la vie 14:58:14 <Sparks> Anyone have anything else? 14:59:10 <Sparks> If not I wish you all a good day! 14:59:22 <Sparks> #endmeeting - -- Eric - -------------------------------------------------- Eric "Sparks" Christensen Fedora Project sparks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - sparks@xxxxxxxxxx 097C 82C3 52DF C64A 50C2 E3A3 8076 ABDE 024B B3D1 - -------------------------------------------------- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQGcBAEBCgAGBQJTnwb3AAoJEB/kgVGp2CYvGqsL/iOoXfJ4rlUGfzNclAuFBQFB zj6CL5QnLapeIHtRwvduMyxiRqiLiqN5IrROS5cFcvGuouoasoOf49/FZREuv9AG 2UAOaTHh0ssz/T5qN0FsN0oj84Ba3xJsIu978faZrsqk1rfJoCykhJ4iqo4IZfDI 3ovg+cAQc0XdamIoSuYIekYCY1jHoXoX/7qo4L1K9rMNP9pvIl/1l0debabwuGAr NzH/KAm9UtninAFS7im6/bqhwYp1sksBA16f7qyQlz11RNFYnVcKaAM0o+WfQ8k2 jJ4JDWIKrI5QbS+l3OqCYIXWCqYD7XjpHicZqexya5FoZC9P2MqdCZ34C9NqxOlJ 2+qsqGVuyUmdkv0lg6EHmrmnZt5USzt3lsVTQ3ifZLaAVLwQHsXN84qlrZ4z/2VM R4u2IB6t+5j4KNA+QGyEH/19zu8WooCwM4cd8A5U4ko23I3YOBlB0EV/uR7984ly BZ/rdT3pr3OA1pznpZxE6edNZZv3HUzRJheeOTLt+A== =Jaey -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- docs mailing list docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/docs
