Comment (by pfrields):
I had some thoughts on the categories. I like the majority of the
suggestions, but I also believe Ryan as editor in chief will need to make
the final call. Here's my proposal with slight changes:
* capture CTA posts into Contributor Community
* subsume HDYF into Interviews (although the series can keep its name in
titles, just like other series)
* eliminate comedy posts -- we can't judge how it will come off with all
audiences, and we don't have enough articles for monotony to be an issue,
so this is a solution in search of a problem
== Proposed Categories, rev. 3 ==
* '''5 Things in Fedora This Week''' (no change)
* '''(Fedora) Contributor Community'''
* Articles about "the happenings" across the Fedora Project that are of
interest to the entire Fedora user community (wider audience than
CommBlog?)
* Example: ''We're making Fedora more modular''
* Articles relating to "calls of action" or other types of post about
specific topics from deep inside Fedora
* Example: ''Fedora Marketing is not a spectator sport''
* '''Events'''
* Anything pertaining to events or real world happenings with Fedora
(good place for Ambassadors to be engaged too…)
* '''Hot off the press! / New in Fedora'''
* Either name, depending on how serious we want to keep things. :)
* For breaking news about major changes or updates about changes that
directly impact users
* '''Interviews'''
* Distinctly different from How do you Fedora
* Can contain any type of interview
* Example: ''Creating laser light shows with Fedora''
* Includes '''How do you Fedora'''
* requires renaming existing category, can be done in the SQL trivially
if not in the WP UI
* '''Using software'''
* Slug: /software
* For how-tos / guides / walkthroughs of using software in Fedora
* '''Using hardware'''
* Slug: /hardware
* For how-tos / guides / walkthroughs of using software with Fedora
