Welcome Adel, Suggest you check out #fedora-docs on the IRC and talk with everyone about getting started, and were you want to help out. Most of the team leads can usually be found there. Hi, which server do you use in general? -Kirk -- http://ilovefedora.blogspot.com/ -- PhD candidate in Computer Science Address BP 108, Bureau de poste Tunis republique 1001 Tunis Tunisia tel: +216 97 246 706 fax: +216 71 391 166

introduction
by Adel ESSAFI 28 Mar '09

28 Mar '09

Hi list, I introduce my self. I am Adel ESSAFI a PHD candidate in computer science and assistant teacher in ESSTT (high school). I was working with redhat and fedora since 2000. I have recently discovered symfony (a framework of PHP) whose developpers always tell that the success of symfony is FIRST due to the rich documentation! When I browse the web for some documentation about fedora (or some software), I feel the lack of documentation of fedora. This may effectively be a serious handicape for fedora users and especially beginners. I want to contribute as most as possible in technical redaction (quicckstart, help, ....) I have writen some article (in frech) for linux+ magazine and I try to publish some post on my blog (below). I hope that I can help on fedora project Regards Adel http://ilovefedora.blogspot.com/ -- PhD candidate in Computer Science Address BP 108, Bureau de poste Tunis republique 1001 Tunis Tunisia tel: +216 97 246 706 fax: +216 71 391 166

Publican Issues
by Eric Christensen 27 Mar '09

27 Mar '09

I've been discussing Publican problems since December of 2008. Many have been discussing it longer. At tonight's (today's) Docs Project meeting we will discuss Publican and how to go forward. Right now I can see five options for moving forward: 1. Use Publican for a guide but munge through to an RPM that Fedora will consume; use jjmcd's script or a new .spec file 2. Fork Publican and remove the variable that puts the version # in the name 3. Get the Packaging Committee to amend the rules 4. Use Publican for HTML + PDF and fedora-doc-utils for RPM 5. Use f-doc-utils exclusively Be thinking about this for tonight's meeting. Thanks, Eric

Tomorrow's Docs Meeting
by Eric Christensen 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

For tomorrow's meeting I'd like to use Gobby[1] and the Talk[2] server to complete the Beta Announcement as there seems to be some differing of opinions on what needs to be included. Does anyone have any problems with using either of these resources for tomorrow's meeting? Eric [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Gobby [2] http://talk.fedoraproject.org

Install Guide
by David Nalley 24 Mar '09

24 Mar '09

I pushed up the first PDF of what will be the F11 Install Guide in case you wish to peruse, critique, edit, or contribute. To give you an idea of our timeline we hope to have a usable (but not necessarily edited) Install Guide by the beta so that QA can use the Install Guide in the installation testing. A number of notable things make this worth checking out. * The transition to publican has been made * Significant content has been pulled from the RHEL IG thanks to the content being licensed under a free license (previously under OPL with a NC clause, and thus didn't meet Fedora's standard of freedom) and Rudi doing tons of work. * The current install guide is 172 pages, that's a significant addition to previous install guides. http://ke4qqq.fedorapeople.org/Installation_Guide.pdf I will try and keep this updated regularly as we inch closer to the beta, and eventually to release.
