[magazine] Article for the Blog about Factory 2.0 - Draft
by Natalie Ardasevova 26 Oct '16

26 Oct '16

Hi guys, I wrote an article based on Ralph Bean's Flock presentation about Factory 2.0. I couldn't find anything about Factory under the Modularity category on the Community blog, so this seemed like a good idea. Here is the draft: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/factory-2-0-mean-modularity/ Please let me know what do you think! :-) Best, Natalie Ardasevova nardasev(a)redhat.com Marketing Communications Specialist

So far everything is running greatly. :) Here is the link for the article: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14976&preview=1&_ppp=7d196cdeda This is my first ever article for the Fedora Magazine, so it's possible that there are some mistakes in which case please let me know. Hope you are all well! Kind regards, Nemanja

by Paul W. Frields 25 Oct '16

25 Oct '16

I'll be driving on Thursday evening EDT and can't chair the meeting then. I emailed Justin to ask him to chair in my absence, but I realized this should probably be noted on the list. Sorry for missing it this week! -- Paul W.

[magazine] Self introduction and pitch: Fedora in our computer lab
by Nemanja Milosevic 23 Oct '16

23 Oct '16

Hello all, My name is Nemanja and I am a Fedora Ambassador and contributor from Serbia. My wiki page is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Nmilosev I recently became a teaching assistant on my faculty and naturally pushed that we replace the existing Ubuntu with Windows VMs with Fedora. All in all, I was successful and we are now using Fedora exclusively in our computer lab. :) I talked with Justin (jflory7) over the IRC a couple of weeks ago (while still planning) and I was told that this is something that could go into the Fedora Magazine. Following the instructions on writing an article I wrote a pitch here: https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14976&preview=true&preview_id=14976 Also the picture album is here: http://imgur.com/a/EbQnE The main reason I'm wanting this to be published in the first place is to further raise awareness about using Fedora in education (especially for CS classes, where you almost always want the latest Dev tools). Also if published, the article could be easily shared on the University social media which would help promote Fedora locally even further. :) Please advise on what are the next steps on publishing the article. :) Kind regards, Nemanja

[magazine] Inkscape article series
by Ryan Lerch 19 Oct '16

19 Oct '16

Hi all, When looking into the current two inkscape posts, both are really awesome and useful, but not super-suitable for a first article in a series. SO i wrote up a quick post that does a brief intro into Inkscape, with a few examples, then instructs how to install Inkscape on Fedora, then does a super-quick intro tutorial covering how to create and move shapes. https://fedoramagazine.org/?p=14997&preview=1&_ppp=65b1b0c8f3 I'm thinking this one could go out on the slot on Friday, wouldsomeone be able to cast a quick eye over it? cheers, ryanlerch
