[Session Proposal] Rust on Fedora
by Sumantro Mukherjee
Hey
I would like to share some knowledge on Rust. It's a programming language which is blazing fast and powers the new Firefox Quantum.
This session will start with what rust is, setting up rust and then writing a small application.
We do have a rust SIG in Fedora and we would love to see more Fedorans coming forward to test rust and cargo(package manager for rust)
experience in Fedora Ecosystem.
Thoughts?
Thanks

Sessions and plan for the F29 release cycle
by Ankur Sinha
Hello everyone,
Here's a quick update on our classroom session plans for the Fedora 29
release cycle.
Release cycle based schedule
-----------------------------
We've recently moved to a release cycle based classroom schedule. The
idea is to do our sessions between a two releases, so that:
- we can work on release critical activities as needed before the
release.
- we do not clash with the release marketing just after a release is
made.
- we can fill up the relative silent period between two releases.
- we can try to organise sessions that focus on new features that each
release brings!
This wiki page describes the schedule in more detail:

Fedora 29 cycle
---------------
So based on this, we've chosen 8 sessions for the Fedora 29 cycle:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroom/F29
A Pagure ticket acts as our tracker:
https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/issue/94
and there are individual tickets for each session that are mentioned
there.
- Silverblue
- L10N 101
- IRC 101
- Selinux
- Podman and/or containers 101
- LaTeX 101
- VIM 102
- Creating Fedora badges.
We need more hands!
-------------------
For each of these sessions, we need people that can help us organise
them:
- instructors
- magazine post writers
- bluejeans link (https://pagure.io/fedora-join/Fedora-Join/issue/83)
- survey (optional)
We also need someone who will generally check on the preparation for
each session, e-mail the instructors, remind everyone of their duties,
and so on.
Please help us out if you have spare cycles. These tasks are not
technical at all. :)
I will also post on the community blog. I have also sent this to the join
mailing list, but please reply to the classroom mailing list with any
comments.
