========================================================================
Quick Summary
========================================================================
1) Profile / Interviews: Yeah, let's reboot this!
2) Better for Magazine, not CommBlog
3) Questions: Good, add Fedora usage questions too (user experience)
4) Plan: Add new questions, begin polling contributors for new articles?

Please let me know what your thoughts are.

Thanks,

Hi Charles!

we have done something very similar to this in the past with the How do
you Fedora? series:

https://fedoramagazine.org/maria-leandro-how-do-you-fedora/

I think this is a good discussion to have - Ryan and I talked earlier this month about rebooting the series as well.

Firstly, I mentioned a while ago somewhere that I wasn't sure if this would be most appropriate for the Magazine or maybe the Community Blog (being like a community hub). However, I personally came to the conclusion that I think these articles targeted towards interviewing Fedora contributors isn't exclusively in the interest of the contributor community, and I think even regular users who aren't involved as contributors will enjoy a series about seeing how some Fedora "regulars" use the distro, and maybe learn a few tips and tricks about customizing their environment or getting involved with the Project. So, yes, I think Magazine is most appropriate for these!

Secondly, I definitely think popping some drafts up there is a good idea. I'm all for continuing this under the "How do you Fedora?" namesake since we still have that as a category in the Magazine. In terms of the proposed questions, I like them, but I also think it's a good idea to include some targeted questions towards how contributors use Fedora too - even before I was involved, I remember reading these articles and finding it interesting how the "experts" were using Fedora. I think adding some of those questions into the mix of Project-focused questions is a good idea.

Any other thoughts on this?
