IMPORTANT - Fedora Project Contributor Agreement Signing Window Is Open
by Tom Callaway
Please take a moment and read this brief email, as it is important.
Fedora is in the process of retiring our old "Individual Contributor
License Agreement" (also known as the ICLA or CLA) and replacing it with
the new Fedora Project Contributor Agreement (FPCA).
All Fedora contributors with accounts in the Fedora Account System
(https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts) who have agreed to the old
CLA *MUST* agree to the new FPCA by June 17, 2011 to continue
contributing to Fedora.
Here is how you do this:
1) Login to the Fedora Account System:
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts
2) Once logged in, click on the "My Account" link in the blue box on the
left side of the window.
3) On the page that loads, you will see a section labeled "Account
Details". Look for the line that says "Contributor Agreement". On that
line, you should see a new section that says:
"New CLA Not Signed - We need contributors to sign the new Contributor
Agreement(Complete it now!)"
Click on "Complete it now!" and follow the prompts.
*****
It is important that Fedora Account holders who have signed the old
Fedora CLA sign the new FPCA. We have allotted a window of one month for
Fedora contributors to agree to the FPCA. This means that after June 17,
2011, any Fedora Contributors who have not agreed to the FPCA will have
their "cla_done" flag set to False. This also means that any groups that
they are in which are dependent upon "cla_done", such as "packager",
"ambassador", and Fedora People access will be removed.
There are a few accounts which are exempt from this, specifically,
accounts which are members of the "cla_dell", "cla_intel", and
"cla_redhat" groups. If you do not know what these groups are, you are
probably not in them. :) Accounts in these groups will not see the "New
CLA Not Signed" line on their "My Account" page, and do not need to take
any action at this time.
Please take a minute and login to FAS to agree to the terms of the FPCA,
to avoid loss of access.
More information about the FPCA, including the final FPCA text, can be
found here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal:Fedora_Project_Contributor_Agreement
If you have any additional questions about the FPCA or the re-signing
process, please feel free to email me directly at legal(a)fedoraproject.org.
Thanks,
Tom Callaway, Fedora Legal

Fedora events system
by Paul W. Frields
Hiemanshu Sharma is planning to work on a Fedora events system as a
participant in GSoC 2011. When Juan (nushio) Rodriguez posted about
this, I pointed out[1] this might be really useful to implement on
Drupal, where the entire free software community -- heck, *thousands*
of users/sites beyond FOSS even -- could take advantage of it.
One of the resources that Peter Borsa pointed out was the "Conference
Organizing Distribution" for Drupal.[2] It looks like they have a lot
of functionality implemented here already, but AIUI/IIRC Hiemanshu has
a good deal of experience with Drupal, and this might be a great place
for him to participate upstream, but yet have Fedora directly benefit
from or showcase the work.
I've invited Juan and Hiemanshu to this list so we can talk about how
we might slot this with Phase 2 work. (I recently blogged about Phase
2 as well.)[3] Our next meeting is Tuesday May 17 at 2000 UTC (4:00pm
US EDT):
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?year=2011&month=5&da...
If that ends up being a bad time for you guys (Hiemanshu especially),
feel free to just reply here on the list so we can discuss. I'm
really happy to see someone working on this and we would love to have
you work with our team!
Some initial thoughts for what we'd want to do to support Hiemanshu:
* Ensure we have all prerequisites for his work packaged
* Get our Features development plan completed and figure out how to
use it to collaborate with each other
* Figure out any dependencies for Hiemanshu and how to schedule them
properly for our Phase 2 work
