Insight milestone and next steps
by Paul W. Frields 30 Jun '10

30 Jun '10

A lot of people have been asking, both among the Marketing team and elsewhere, about how to move forward with Insight. Unfortunately, we've missed the June 15th milestone that was to serve as our trigger for reconsidering our game plan: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/logistics/2010-April/000519.html Our plan is divided roughly into development, then staging, then production -- the way most infrastructure projects happen in Fedora. However, we still have pieces of the codebase that are changing during what is supposed to be our staging period. We've had an instance up for development for some time without our participants building the skills needed to understand and administer the instance. Without active participation from Fedora community members, this system can't be sustained regardless of platform. Participants in Fedora are frustrated because our tools and skills are not moving us forward at the rate needed to sustain this project. There are other parts of Fedora considering separate content needs on different platforms, like mailing list wrappers using Drupal. We need to take a more holistic view that includes those project-wide challenges as well, where we collaborate with the Fedora people working on them, not just our own team from Marketing. And we need to consider whether we have enough docs, tutorials, examples, and other resources to help us contribute effectively to Insight. In Fedora we talk about "fail faster" as a worthy goal -- to understand when we're doing the wrong thing, stop doing that, and then move on to something more productive. Our problem right now is that we are not recognizing that failure and regrouping. And moreover, we don't have a clear system owner for the future, which is why I'm writing this email. Given the unique and specific workflow in Fedora, it's worthwhile for us to look at some alternatives, and compare and contrast them with what we're doing now. Based on the above, I'm hereby proposing that we temporarily halt staging and development on the Zikula instance so we can address some of these concerns. -- Paul W.

Insight meeting this week
by Paul W. Frields 28 Jun '10

28 Jun '10

I'll be tied up during our normal Insight meeting time this week, because I'll be at the Red Hat Summit. Can we look over the meeting notes to see where we stand with "stuff to do," and whether we're making appropriate progress? http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-mktg/2010-06-17/fedora-mktg.2010-06… Thanks especially to Smooge who had a hard week last week, and still managed to find time to help us with Zikula. Smooge, is there something the rest of us could be doing to make that work easier? Should we be raising specific issues on the infrastructure list, or do you feel like your being our point of contact is sufficient already? -- Paul W.

Pascal Calarco had repeatedly tested FWN content for us on Insight. Pascal, there's no reason to think anything's changed radically, but are you prepared to get the most recent copy of FWN up on Insight if we have it available in the next week or so? -- Paul W.

Insight now has EZComments 2.0.0
by Paul W. Frields 09 Jun '10

09 Jun '10

I have upgraded EZComments on the Zikula instance on publictest6 to 2.0.0. I have packages available in ~pfrields (noarch and SRPM) so they can be added to the infrastructure repo. Should I file infrastructure tickets to get those packages added to the repos? -- Paul W.
