Re: Fwd: [NEW Spins websites] Functional spins

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm a fan of the following applications: 

Ardour
qtractor
Hydrogen
synthv1
MuseScore
TuxGuitar
Guitarix
SooperLooper
Calf Plugins

I feel like this gives a wide breath of all the things that are in Ardour and qtractor for our DAWs, Hydrogen for drums, a synth, (I like alsa modular synth over synthv1, but the latter has a better icon and I think that matters for this use), MuseScore for notation (I think users coming from Sibelius or Finale will be more comfortable with MuseScore over Fresobaldi and might help attract new users.) TuxGuitar for helping you learn new instruments, Guitarix and SooperLooper for live performance,  and Calf Plugins for Production. 

9 programs to match the others that have turned theirs in, and conform to the layout. 


Brendan, I'm not sure if you want me to forward this to Robert Mayr, or if you're looking for more discussion.

Hi all,
we are now very close to F22 and we still have no features for your
spins, except design and scientific who replied immediately (thank you!).
I think the websites should in some way interest you, in my eyes they
are the connection between end users and Spin SIGs.
I'm not worried about the description or the content we already have on
the old spins.fpo website. I'd like to know from you which features are
characteristic for your spin, you should also provide the SVG icon and a
small text description. If this is not possible, please give us urgently
a list of the features, as shown in:
http://labs.stg.fedoraproject.org/it/design-suite/
http://labs.stg.fedoraproject.org/it/scientific/

You can reply to this email and I can look for the rest if you are not
interested in providing icons or text.
Sorry for speaking so frankly, but I really don't understand why only
few SIGs are responsive here. We need to code the pages within this week
to give l10n teams the chance to translate the websites in time.

I hope to hear soon from you.
Thank you.
Robert

     Dear Spin owners,
     probably you heard it already but after getfedora.org
     <http://getfedora.org> for F21, the websites team is redesigning
     spins.fedoraproject.org <http://spins.fedoraproject.org> and we
     decided to split the content there in desktop spins and functional
     spins.
     The Spins you own actually will go under a complete new website,
     labs.fedoraproject.org.[1] We are already working on it and I made
     an example for the Design Suite to show you how it will look like. [2]
     All Spins will have their own space and therefore I'm asking you to
     help us with the content. I should be able to write all the rest,
     but as you can see we want to promote the most important features of
     every single Spin, in order to give end-users an overview of what
     they get when installing your spin.
     It would be very helpful if you could reply with a list of features
     and some short description of them, maybe also with an SVG of the
     icon if it's spin related. Otherwise I can try to find one somewhere
     else.

     We don't have much time left until F22 final release and labs.fpo
     will not be the only new website. Be so kind and try to get back to
     me ASAP, we need to code the pages and give translators some time to
     work on it.

     For any question o doubt feel free to contact me.
     Thank you.
