A work for You [Was: [Ambassadors] Re: Fedora-ambassadors-list Digest, Vol 44, Issue 10]
by susmit shannigrahi 15 Apr '09

Hi Aveek, Before you post anything else, or we talk about your suggestions, I would like to give you a work. Let's see if you can complete that. If you google with "mailing list etiquettes", you will find that every mailing list has it's own guidelines for mailing lists. (Like not to reply digests when replying.) Unfortunately, we have none on our wiki. So, the work is: Can you please create a wiki page which will describe the mailing list etiquettes for Fedora? We want to make this a reference for future. This may not much different from the LUG guidelines. But please don't copy blindly. PS: I was going to give you a link to Shakthi's pdf, but considering it will lessen the amount of research done by you, I shall refrain from that. ;) Thanks. -- Regards, Susmit. ============================================= ssh 0x86DD170A http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/user:susmit =============================================

In the link: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F11_Talking_Points given by Max, there is a mention for Moksha which is a web based platform to create widgetised web apps. So how is a switch to Fedora 11 going to help users with Moksha? Please throw some light on this aspect. cheers, Debjit Fedora India Ambassador, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Dkd903

HELP needed
by hagr182 13 Apr '09

Well Ive havent got any Fedora related emails for quite some time now, I think it is because I have been inactive for the last 2 months, tough I wasnt (Switched my major and recently got home from religious/humanitarian missions). So I kindly request to be "activated again" as now I will be back on track helping the project. Also next week im giving a class on guess what?? Well the IT deparment wants me to give a class about how to install linux and teach my fellow students how to use any distribution I like, so I chose Fedora, the presentation is due on next saturday, any advice on what I should focus the class on?? Thanks, Hector. P.D: Its good to be back working with such a great community

F11 Release Events
by Francesco Ugolini 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Hi, once again I'm here talking about Release Events. - Why are they so important? Simply, they introduce, in a human-friendly way, Fedora to the world. They give the possibility to have a first look of what was done in the previous 6 months and have people ready to give community the first support for installation and explanation of all/most of the features. - What can we do? Like the past releases, we have to create something really special to cheer the new release: a worldwide initiative, marked for its distinctive signs, that mix both the knowledge and party sides. - Can I hold a Release Event? What I have to do? Sure. Just add your event in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents. According to the release schedule, we encourage to have such events in the first 2/3 weeks after the release (May 26th, to stay sure, add a week). During the next weeks I'll let you know about the other aspects connected with this initiative (swags, meetings etc.). My regards and the best wishes Francesco Ugolini

There are a few suggestions: 1. Contacting national dailies like Times of India, Telegraph, The Hindu, etc. & giving out press releases & information on GNU/Linux. 2.Mass marketing the regional language support for small businesses & home use like Microsoft does. Giving out advertisements is a must. 3.Having tutorial DVD distributions for budding coders & bug trackers on the lines of the Sun starter packs. Thanks, Aveek

Tapping in touch pads
by Satyajit Ranjeev 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Hi all, I'm not very sure to which list I must post this to but I do hope some one in this list can help me. I was testing fedora 11 beta and they have disabled the tap option in the touchpad of my laptop. This was a major concern in fedora 9 and many of the users were annoyed and some even turned away from fedora. In 10 it was enabled by default, but 11 it is disabled. The wiki says if the touchpad has physical buttons the tapping is disabled. Dont you think it should be up to the user to decide this. Im not sure where to voice this opinion. Thanks, Satyajit Ranjeev

NA Media Production for F11
by David Nalley 12 Apr '09

12 Apr '09

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am copying John Poelstra as this is perhaps something that should be added to the schedule. We are about 6 weeks away from F11 release. From what I recall from F10, artwork delay was a big factor in the delay of media and we had set some timelines on when we needed to get the artwork taken care of, to the printer, etc. So lets start that discussion here. Clint: Since you are also the liaison with Art, is the media and sleeve artwork ready. If not what's the date it will be? Is there anything the rest of us can do to push all of this along? Thanks Sorry for tying up the global list with a regional discussion.
