Hey all,

So - we've had a piece from roshi sitting in "pending" for more than two
weeks. If we're going to institute some kind of system where pieces have
to be approved / scheduled, we should communicate with the authors and
ensure these things are being scheduled / dealt with in a timely manner.

* Nothing that's not embargoed should sit longer than a few days,
especially when we have a dearth of content.

* If a piece needs editing, then we need to communicate that to the author.

* If a piece is somehow unsuitable, we need to let the author know.

While we have some discussions/plans for a "community focused"
blog/publication off in the future, it's not here now. We aren't exactly
flooded with content either - there's no good reason not to publish
these things on Fedora Magazine for now.

Best,

The workflow i proposed a few weeks back is primarily designed to mitigate a lot of this -- having a pitch layer will help prevent articles being written that don't fit into the scope of the Magazine.

Also, the edit flow plugin that is now enabled allows communication between the author and editors to communicate.
