Evening all, We've been talking for a while about setting up a news.fedoraproject.org site, for a number of different uses. Thanks to the hard work of Frank Chiulli we now have a test install of Lyceum on publictest 1 for our use :) Before moving forward with this, we need to deal with a number of issues: 1) What do we actually want to use the site for? My thoughts are that we use it for Fedora Weekly News, along with other marketing stuff such as interviews and announcements - similar to what press.redhat.com is. 2) Depending on the above, do we want to use Lyceum or Wordpress? Infra would like us to have whatever solution we use packaged and yumable on Fedora; Wordpress is already in while Lyceum needs packaging. As I understand it Lyceum allows us to have multiple blogs and is what's used by Red Hat Magazine. Wordpress only allows for the one blog, but would also allow multiple authors/editors on a single blog (I think). 3) Experiment and play - find a work flow that's right for us! We may need some test material for this, such as an example FWN release or a mock announcement. 4) We need a theme. I've started on one, and whatever we create for Wordpress should also work on Lyceum, though we've had some problems with this! If you're interested to see what I've got so far, test.questionsplease.org will let you :) I can make this available for people to use as a base. All I've done is create a simple Wordpress template that uses the ids and classes from fedora.css, and point at that for the style sheet. I'll upload this to my fedorapeople space soon... Anyone is welcome to sign up and we can start adding people in different roles to the Fedora News blog I created in Lyceum, but the URL for the install is on another box...Rahul, Frank, can you help me out here? I think that's all for now. Does anybody have any thoughts or ideas about this? Ah, and finally, could we keep all replies to the marketing list, if people think that's appropriate? Better to do everything once than 5 times! Best wishes, and sorry for all the stuff I've probably forgotten!
