+After thinking about all this, we will stop here work on the installer
+images. Time is too short and discussion is going nowhere for now.

+are already very far from it. I will use screenshots for it and we will
+have to review together this kind of process to make it work for Mageia 3.

+
+Also, about my last comment about the logo in the background. I think I

+clearly brands the image as part of Mageia and doesn't attract too much
+attention to itself, allowing people to view the image unencumbered.
+My question was more about the use of the shadow behind the logo (which
+helps it stand out but not so much that it pokes you in the eye). Is that
+OK as far as not changing the logo is concerned?

Hi folks,
+
+Please look at Max's new backgrounds and vote for one logo:
+

+From: Max Quarterpleen <bogusman222 at gmail.com>

+Subject: [Mageia-artwork] Last round of background discussions
+
+
+Hi everybody.
+We've pretty much all agreed (or at least, everybody who has bothered to
+respond agreed) that we are going to go with the logo in the bottom
+right corner with the more prominent shadow, the drop-shadow.
+Now, some people thought that it still isn't very visible. I personally
+think it looks great, but I am only one person.
+So, I mad two more mockups: a greyscale logo and a white logo. (I tried
+a black logo and it was just awful).
+Grayscale: http://i.imgur.com/5WOFr.jpg
+White: http://i.imgur.com/yVsNd.jpg
+Natural: http://i.imgur.com/1rdLL.jpg
+Please disregard JPEG artifacts, we will distribute the images as PNGs.
+Please respond with your thoughts.
+Again, the final position of the logo will depend on the resolution of
+the image so that it won't interfere with the KDE taskbar.
+Max

Hi Josh
+
+I am replying later than intended.
+
+A newsletter is an ok idea, but I think a free PDF magazine for people 
+to download with a new issue each month, would be a much better idea in 
+the future, when our community is big enough. Something like 
+http://pclosmag.com/ and http://fullcirclemagazine.org ,but aimed at 
+Mageia users and potential Mageia users.
+
+Full Circle Magazine also has a podcast, and having an official podcast 
+for Mageia I think is a great idea. Unfortunately I don't have someone 
+else to do one with at the moment, and I don't want to try and start one 
+on my own. Also my idea for how I would want the podcast to be like, 
+isn't really going to work unless there are enough people who would like 
+to come on as a guest. Ideally I would want most episodes to have a 
+guest. A guest who is a Mageia contributor, or just a user that would 
+like to share their story about why they are using Mageia and what they 
+think of it.
+
+I will be going on three or two podcasts to talk about Mageia 2 :).  
+Possibly more even if other people would like me on theirs.
+
+I assume at the moment with the magazine idea just like with the Mageia 
+podcast idea, currently lacking the helpers. However starting off with a 
+weekly or monthly news letter would probably be much easier at the moment.
+
+With certain Mageia related projects, it really will help to have enough 
+people first that would like to help with the project. Hopefully Mageia 
+2 will bring in a lot of new contributors :).
+
+As for websites, I think that in general the more websites that mention 
+Mageia in a positive way the better for the project :).
+

+
+Because it may be that either:
+
+1.) There wasn't enough access, or interest in that particular
+incarnation of those earlier prototyped concepts, or
+
+2.) We haven't stumbled across the formula with the right zeal and
+appeal that we're all looking for.
+
+Yes I think we may want to take a look at those all but abandoned
+vehicles, but also think that we shouldn't try to force the mold. These
+parts of our infrastructure were launched way back before Before Beta 1
+IIRC, and if their relative failure is a result of #2 above, then we may
+want to keep looking for something that appeals more to ????
+
+For example, our original forums were based on FudForum, software I
+particularly like for some projects, and not for others. They were
+basically buried within a free hosting solution, which wasn't
+acceptable, but no attempts were made to migrate any of the discussions
+to the current forums, and no links were provided when we finally did
+settle on the forumware we are using now.
+
+I would like to avoid beginning to move forward with real and exciting
+content, forced into a software solution that will simply prove once
+more, that it is for whatever reason unsuitable for our purposes. I'm
+not saying that what we already have is unsuitable, just that we need to
+think, and brainstorm, and sandbox without restriction until we all go,
+"Hey that's pretty bitchen! Let's use that".
+
+I don't get the whole "Planet" thing. never did. But really, anything
+ewboontoo leaves a bad taste in my mouth anyway, and we're really trying
+to set ourselves apart from others anyway.
+
+in an earlier post, (and I think this was you Romain, who pointed it
+out), there needs to be some style applied to planet.mageia.org. This is
+going to require the coordination of MarCom w/the web development team
+along with the artwork team in order to accomplish, and there's really
+no point in even pursuing that until Trish is provided with the
+credentials so that she can delegate administration of this resource to
+members of the team here.
+
+It is pretty bland, and ugly, compared to the news and blog sites of
+other distros - even when compared to the minimalist approach used by
+debian GNU/Linux.
+
+Let's get these credentials to Trish, stop this nonsense with the
+infinite transferring of extension to extension, and get on with it.
+
+In the meantime, if we add content to the forward face of Mageia, let's
+make sure we can abandon the software at anytime and fold that content
+into software that in the future we may find more conducive to our needs.
+
+It was a fiasco, because there was no response, little direction, and
+ambiguous command and control related to the administration of this
+so-called *existing* infrastructure. The initiative that Josh and
+Sebastian showed in this was, albeit politely, shot down because we
+currently have an existing, yet perhaps inferior software service in
+place, for some of what we're talking about.
+
+Like Josh indicated, an SQL dump of the MariaDB database and a push from
+whatever RCS he used to deploy his POC beta is simple enough to migrate
+to a VirtualHost container under Mageia.org's HTTPD farm.
+
+heh. We do incorporate *MariaDB* INSTEAD of *MySQL*, don't we? LOL! Or
+are we using EllisonCo software, missing yet another opportunity to set
+ourselves apart from other Linux distros? ;)
+
+Kindest regards,

+
+Trish, I think we really do need to bring this up at the next council
+meeting.
+
+I'm sure that if there was adequate coordination on issues such as this,
+Josh wouldn't have had to self-host, and from what I have been able to
+ascertain he would have preferred to move forward under the magiea.org
+domain anyway.
+
+I'm rather surprised he hasn't thrown his hands up and said, "whatev",
+already.
+
+Hang in there Josh There's something broken in the community's
+communication infrastructure and we may be forging ahead with arbitrary
+technological and production deadlines at the expense of a quality
+*community*.
+
+This is Open Source - there really is no real timeline; simply goals
+that currently push for product releases at the expense of coordinated
+efforts.
+
+Most people here know that I'm a Slacker, having used that distro since
+it's inception, and there's a lesson to be learned there: "The next
+release of Slackware will be released when it's ready", is almost a
+mantra for a reason.
+
+Things mature in their own time. We can set goals and artificial
+deadlines (most deadlines in the world, with the exception of court
+dates, are indeed artificial), but we should be willing and able to
+adjust those dates based upon the *smoothly acheived* deadlines, derived
+from the self-imposed goals we set for such events to occur.
+
+I hope that helps :)

+Quoting myself here, but before I put up any of these on the wiki I need
+some clarification/direction on the matter.
+
+We have a budget. And some of these sites are not free (Nor should we
+expect them to be). Some of the sites have *some* free services, and
+some are actually free.
+
+Each has varying targets.
+
+We spent around $2500.00 on stickers and such, so I can't imagine that
+an allocation of say, ten percent of that would be asking too much to
+earmark for MarCom's budget in this regard.
+
+I need to hear back whether we're going to have this support and that
+there is a potential to release this *neccessary* funding for us.
+
+If we can spend ten times this amount of stickers and t-shirts, then I
+believe it is prudent to allocate the pittance I'm asking for to reach
+millions in the mainstream - not just a few hundred or so at a couple of
+conventions.

+
+Okay Trish has hit the nail on the head with respect to the priorities
+we should be focusing on above. Let's move off the infinite loop of the
+install screens now that it's a dead issue for the time being and take
+up the reigns of the tasks above that Trish has laid out for us :)
+
+wrt 1.) I think perhaps a good way to start is to get from Anne, an
+example of an announcement that she, as our spokesperson, might issue.
+
+We can nip in the butt any possibility that we'll be caught off guard
+again and embarrassed, by taking this proposed sample statement that she
+envisions releasing, fixing it, and then, as her teleprompter returning
+it as the statement we actually ARE going to issue.
+
+2.) This I've addressed above. I want to know what our budget is going
+to be, and zero is not acceptable considering the monies spent on
+schwag, that I pointed out above (Nothing wrong with scwhag, but I don't
+recall that marketing expense ever coming through our team for approval,
+nod, consensus, etc.).
+
+3.) Very good milestone to achieve. How might we "solicit reviews", and
+what are many of the questions we're seeing on the forums that we can
+draw from for this, aside from...
+
+"What sets Mageia apart from other major Linux distros?" That's question
+number one IMO :)
+
+Kindest regards,

+Yes, we are operating in a relative vacuum in that regard. unable to

+
+It was discussed in advance too, in chan on IRC and on this list.

+
+I'm not a member of the artwork team and won't be subscribing to the

+There are five currently agreed upon (or not) sets of copy for the
+installation screens for those who perform graphical installs of Mageia.
+
+Following Ennael's post which seemingly scraps that out of control
+juggernaut (Good call IMO), There's plenty of time to work on this for
+Mageia 2.1, Mageia 3 Beta 1, whatev :)
+
+That having been said, we keep asking ourselves about what sets Mageia
+apart from other distros (IOW, why use Mageia instead of CentOS or
+Fedora, considering that Mageia is 'yet another RPM based distro').
+
+If we all keep asking ourselves this question, and all we get back is
+one little control center app, then that is, operationally, the main
+difference isn't it (Please, flame me on this one, I really want someone
+to take enough offense to this that I hear what makes our distro
+operationally and technologically different enough to compel someone to
+adopt)?
+
+On the non-production level, we have been receiving much feedback.
+Community, Community, Community. Great? Where?
+
+Josh has attempted, along with Sebastian and a few others to address
+this issue and sandbox a few proof of concept ideas. I won't go there in
+this post, but applaud that effort and point to the fact that because
+that effort has support, that we're lacking there with respect to our
+current *community* offerings.
+
+What I would like to suggest, is that in the future, one of the screens
+direct people, post-installation, to their root user's email inbox to
+get more involved, and for further information on post-installation
+matters - you might be tired of hearing this, but we do this with Slackware.
+
+"You're almost finished installing the most spectaculicious of all Linux
+distributions, but take time to check the email for root when your done
+for getting involved with the community" - yeah, a bit loquacious but
+you get the idea....
+
+Once the user is finished installing they have post-installation topics,
+including an email with links to join certain aspects of the community
+(which do not as of yet really exist).
+
+Just thought I'd offer that one up while chewing on a cud of alfalfa :)

+
+Did I get that right?

+Can you do up a graphical flow chart that demonstrates this downstream

+More than anything. I want to understand it :)

+I can't believe that no one caught this misnomer LOL.
+
+Actually, the convention is to have everything lower case, since it's an
+URL.
+
+For example, you can http://twitter.com/mageia or
+http://twitter.com/Mageia or http://twitter.com/mAgEiA ;)
+
+The same goes pretty much for most Social networking and bookmarking

+Finally! Whew!
+
+The signal to noise ratio was up by an order of magnitude, so I chose to

+
+I think most things I'm commenting on are still relevant, otherwise the

+issues eventually answered themselves).
+
+I really tired of having to watch the copy for the install screens

+- - and I drew conclusions from that mess that I've addressed too.
+
+Most existing threads, but couple of new threads here that I'm offering,

+
+Our mail server seems to historically suck pretty bad - sometimes a post
+shows up quickly, and sometimes hours later. I dunno what the other
+folks on the admin team are failing to do and I don't have access to
+troubleshoot it but there is an failing there which can stymie the
+timeliness of responses for collaborative work.

+Maybe I'll track down the person who has direct administration over the

+
+I offered up one, I think, relevant point (along with another

+
+Most of the points we provided copy for are just inventive ways of

+distros have no problems expressing why you should use them, while we
+haven't discovered yet what it is we should be saying.
+
+But when we do, I have confidence that we'll be able to say it with

+
+Maybe we should focus on how we're different from say, debian GNU/Linux
+- - the most completely inclusive (wrt software packages) of all Linux
+distros, and the greatest success story on the power of the community in
+that collaborative regard.
+
+Right now it's hard for me to imagine how we're operationally all that
+different from Redhat.
+
+I offered up a hint in one of my posts by directing attention to
+MariaDB, hint, hint.
+
+Not to say that MariaDB should be the major SQL server in our default

+Yes. Best would be to track it in a bug, with, in it, the list of
+services/capabilities you would like to have (I thought there was a

+
+In the meantime, there's a dropbox folder I believe (Patricia?).

+ - ambiguous C&C, yes;
+

+It's more that they could have had sooner access to it, yes, and that
+we need to know how to handle credential delegations (the moonmoon
+platform doesn't go for multiple user accounts for now). I'd perfectly
+go with the "better apologize than ask for permission" in that area,

+Mageia, or Web services) are not affected.

+
+Well then... ;) I feel your pain :)
+
+I've been a member of the sysadmin team now for oh, I dunno, maybe 15 or
+16 months or so. I haven't bothered to try and offer any of my services
+there in over a year now, however, basically because of what you and Max
+have reported in the last couple of posts.
+
+I became more than interested in MarCom primarily because of you rda. I
+suppose I could dig up the post in my personal archives somewhere but I
+won't so please forgive me for my paraphrasing of your statement.
+
+You said something to the effect of, "Here on the marketing team we will
+have the unenviable opportunity to be overworked, overlooked, not
+acknowledged and contributing much of most. Welcome!" (I told you my
+paraphrase wouldn't do you much justice lol).
+
+I took that as a challenge, and have put forth effort where I could, and
+also when I could. I almost folded a couple of times but decided to just
+lay out instead because there's usually an ebb and flow.
+
+I completely understand the lack of time when we have to work on other
+things for our rice and top ramen LOL. So don't beat yourself up Romain ;)
+
+Basically, what I am is a systems engineer and sysadmin. That's what
+I've been doing since ARPAnet/MILnet days. I'm also a service provider.
+
+To me, three or four days to process a request is bordering on
+negligence. We're seeing three and four months here. It takes litterally
+45 seconds to create a user account, another minute to create a database
+for that person and three or four minutes to create a VirtualHost
+container so they can SSH in, do their work, upload their stuff, and
+dance around in ecstasy.
+
+I had no idea that even Max, being a Team Lead, was having such... Well
+I can't even begin to imagine his frustration - it far exceeds what
+we've been seeing here at MarCom. At least our team itself is pretty good :)
+
+So what I think *might* help alleviate some of the problems here, at
+least wrt prototyping and sandboxing, etc., would be to offer to deploy
+a Mageia box for such purposes.
+
+The only thing that would be left *wanting* is for whomever handles the
+DNS to add an A RR here and there.
+
+I would recommend that All development of the sort that Josh has been
+doing adhere to a standard convention like agile or whatev, although I
+could really care less and people could actually fly by the seat of
+their pants.
+
+What I mean by that is that it is prudent, to have development take
+place on a desktop or home server, and then push everything up with git
+and similar RCS tools to, let's call it a staging box that I launch for
+MarCom.
+
+I would give the root credentials to you and/or Trish, and aside from
+snapshotting it, will take no part in administration of this box. My
+stuff is in a private suite in One Wilshire, all storage is on a SAN
+cluster, and so far I run a 100% Proliant network farm - no commodity boxes.
+
+I've owned my own IP blocks for twenty years that were given to me by
+nic.ddn.mil back in my MILnet days and command my own reverse DNS
+directly at ARIN.
+
+At this time I can deploy a box under ESXi 5 - fully HA fault tolerant
+and clustered. For what we need I figure 512MB RAM and a couple of Xeon
+cores will suffice - I can make adjustments where necessary but for a
+web and database server that should be more than enough unless a bunch
+of people are running Eclipse or Netbeans or something.
+
+No ircd stuff or problematic daemons like that at this time please.
+Anything not mentioned just lemme know and I'll prolly give it a nod as
+long as it isn't something that script kiddies like to roll around in.
+
+If more types of database servers are needed I may need to bump the RAM
+a bit if traffic gets heavy, but it should be fine for MariaDB/MySQL,
+PostgreSQL, and maybe even Sybase or Oracle 9i all at the same time - I
+have noncom free licenses for the latter two if anyone needs to run
+stuff that off the wall.
+
+I would prefer to wait a couple or three weeks and then deploy it under
+Xen, which would completely remove me from the loop, provide you with a
+virtual serial console, and you would be responsible for all
+backups/snapshots yourself.
+
+If the need is urgent I could deploy the machine under VMware, but I
+will have to do the install myself and turn over the root pwd to you.
+
+If we can wait a couple of weeks I can simply provide you with the
+customer portal credentials where you can manage this server, do one
+click backups, destroy/reinstall from various distros (yes Mageia is one
+of them and presumably the one we want to run Mageia related stuff
+under), start/stop the box, etc.
+
+The reason we would need to wait a couple of weeks for the Xen is
+because at the moment, I have no stock. my stuff is in pretty high
+demand and I'm sitting on three new Proliant's that I have to configure
+the iLO for and then take then down to the datacenter and rack them.
+Then I have to enable the stock in inventory.
+
+I will do no firewalling. That's up to you, and you know what the big
+bad world is like out there.
+
+Personally, on all of my own machinery, you can't even FTP - only SCP or
+SFTP, often to obscure port numbers, but it's all just the same thing if
+you use Dreamweaver, Filezilla, Bluefish, whatev. I also usually enable
+X11-Forwarding so a simple 'ssh -Y box.sld.tld' will usually suffice to
+run whichever GUI apps that one really needs on the box.
+
+I would offer to do more, launch a box, harden it, administer security
+and access, etc., but given the cold shoulder I got when I joined the
+sysadmin team almost a year and a half ago I figure they should be
+accountable for something.
+
+If that works out, bear in mind I have unlimited bandwidth, unlimited
+resources once I allocate them, and PB's of SAN storage.
+
+Oh, one other thing. More than anything I was making a suggestion as to
+MariaDB to be the default INSTEAD of MySQL - no one can tell the
+difference anyway, except that the prompt is different and it runs
+circles around MySQL - it's the same thing by the same guy, but I
+suppose that's a matter for the council and packaging team to deliberate
+(Just thought I'd throw that bone out there :) ).
+
+Well, think on that. And if it's something that will benefit the
+community I'm more than happy to provide it. Sorry I can't be much help
+with the actual web design stuff, I wish my CSS and javascript was better.
+
+This would enable people to have sandboxes or prototype/poc stuff
+without burdening the main Mageia server resources (Mine are I'm sure
+more robust anyway). Whoever holds root though, I EXPECT that they will
+be responsible when it comes to DR and security, as well as the creation
+of DBs and VirtualHost containers and non-priv'd user accounts so those
+who need to can sandbox.
+
+I'm sorry I'm not offering more in the way of actually managing the box
+for the community, hardening, and taking on a more active management
+role with it, but I just don't see the responsiveness from other parts
+of the community that I would require to take on that role, let alone
+the responsibility - Max, Josh, you, and others are expressing a lot of
+frustration there and I'm just not willing to put in that much work w/o
+knowing it will actually be utilized.
+
+Lemme know. Or if you have any thoughts on the matter, since this is an
+open ended offer take your time and moll it around with a few other
+(responsible and reactive) folks in the appropriate places before
+getting back to me. On or offlist.
+
+tallship now removes removes his SA hat and puts his MarCom hat back on
+coz it's fun and challenging and outside his comfort zone :)
+
+Kindest regards,
+

+
+ +
Hi all,
+
+Please put this one somewhere where you can check it over the next
+couple of weeks - it's going to be our work-in-progress document until
+release.
+
+PLEASE DO THINGS IN ORDER OF PRIORITY.
+
+Sorry; I know I shouldn't shout; but!
+
+Priority #1:
+
+The release texts. We've got a space ready to go in the Sandbox, please
+let's get on with it. 
+
+Head over to the Sandbox and start writing.
+
+We need to have a first draft ready for the next Council meeting, and
+if I have to write it all by myself over Easted, I won't be a happy
+woman!
+
+Deadline for completion: 23 April.
+
+Priority #2: 
+
+Do some writing for the new-look website - I'll have details about this
+shortly (just waiting for some more from Romain).
+
+Deadline for completion: 23 April.
+
+Both #1 and #2 have to go from us to i18n, so we need to honour the
+deadline.
+
+Priority #3:
+
+Get the planet sorted. Dams has come back to me and Josh and will
+organise the login this week, but I'll keep chasing until it happens.
+
+Priority #4:
+
+Get our press release off to all the sites on our list, *before* the
+release happens... 8-)
+
+Priority #5:
+
+Have a post-mortem, and make sure that this schemozzle doesn't happen
+again next time.
+
+Priority #0:
+
+USE THE SANDBOX. Really. Email the list with an idea, but write it up
+properly (not half-baked) and put it in the sandbox. When we've nailed
+it down, move it to the main page, then we can DO stuff. We've indulged
+in way more wittering than we really need to!
+
+Cheers!

+> 
+> Marcom and Artwork teams (and maybe other teams later) need to have a

+> 
+> To do that, I think a simple solution would be to use WebDAV :
+>  - we setup webdav with ssl, and allow upload from users from artwork

+>  - we setup apache to distribute files from this directory, as

+> 
+> What do you think ?
+> 
+> Other options that I see are :
+>  - using an ftp server instead of webdav to upload the files. However
+>    the connection is not encrypted with ftp.
+>  - using scp/sftp, but this require to have posix accounts for all

[Mageia-marketing] Mageia 2 Web site changes option

+ Romain d'Alverny + rdalverny at gmail.com +
+ Tue Apr 3 17:44:15 CEST 2012 +

+
+ +
Hi there, (please followup the discussion in mageia-marketing, not in
+-artwork or -webteam)
+
+here's a peak at one possible option for Mageia 2 release Web site
+update (not full at once, but for most important pages, and driving
+other pages into that direction too).
+
+The rationale behind this update is articulated as such:
+
+ A) the home page (mageia.org/) is targetted at one-time/first
+time/casual visitors, with a single, main call to action: download
+Mageia. There are others actions, such as: contribute, get older
+version(s), learn more about the product, and the community and the
+project. But there is no other navigation. It's really a poster-like
+page, direct to a main action, with the following main channel for
+visitors:
+
+ - home => action 1: get the software
+ - download => action 1: select your download
+ - while-downloading => actions: how to use, how to contribute, learn
+more about Mageia, what feedback you could provide
+
+Pushing this page calls for updating the Downloads index page design
+as well as the post-download page.
+
+
+ B) a dedicated, community home page is for people coming back again
+and again (contributors, activ users) with three main incoming
+sources:
+   - start.mageia.org (loaded by Mageia browsers)
+   - a mageia.org/coop or another keyword.
+   - home page lower priority action (see bottom nav links "Community")
+
+Here go: news, calendar, teams, docs, and links to the various
+resources/tools on mageia.org in an organized way.
+
+
+ C) for past-home page pages, a new top navigation bar, organizing
+more of the site and making it more accessible from everywhere;
+especially, for easier embedding/deployment/update of it, the navbar
+will be available in different fashion: a dynamic Web service will
+produce the needed HTML/JS for it, and a JS snippet will allow to
+dynamically insert it into all sites (so there's little integration
+work). The top navigation bar exact content is still up to debate, but
+the very top categories should not exceed 5/6 entries at most.
+
+A, B and C are not strongly attached to each other, however they are
+part of the same proposal. There's a missing download page (and
+animation) from A page, but that's a start to go.
+
+A (home page) is http://i.imgur.com/7Vqq6.png . It's a bold move for
+us. It's heavily inspired from a Firefox page which is a nice example
+of a product landing page. From a charter point of view, it reuses the
+white/blue gradient from our original logo and site elements. It may
+benefit from a very light, thin pattern in the blue background, or not
+(not sure). Text copy may need tweaks.
+
+B (community page) is ... still pending, I'm not satisfied with what I
+have so far. We have http://www.mageia.org/contribute/ but I'm not
+sure to change this one right now. Hope to have something to roll out
+for review next week.
+
+C (global nav) is ... pending too. I will roll it out for testing
+later this week. What it needs is to refine its structure; currently
+planned is:
+
+ * Mageia (links to a special map page of the site)
+ * About Us: mageia project info/history & mageia.org organization
+info, what is under http://mageia.org/en/about/ already
+ * Downloads:
+   - Mageia 1 and 2 downloads and features pages,
+   - updates downloads info and mirrors
+   - mirrors
+   - specific software (we used to host a specific mgaonline package for)
+ * Community:
+   - news (blogs, planets, other?), calendar
+   - introduction to contributing
+   - forums, mailing-lists, IRC
+   - wiki, bugzilla, other doc resources
+   - contributors corners
+ * Support: current http://www.mageia.org/en/support/ page redispatched:
+   - users support: community and commercial vendors
+   - (security) updates info
+   - product lifecycle
+   - hardware stuff
+ * Contribute: necessary? as a short link to the contributors guide
+ * About You: not available for now, maybe moved somewhere else, but
+supported by identity and other mageia.org services, would act as a
+portal for every single user, to monitor her own activity/data.
+ * Search (over mageia.org domain)
+
+This new nav answer three concerns:
+ - /platform: allow an easier, consistent deployment of the top nav
+updates through all mageia.org; using here a javascript snippet;
+ - /layout: embed the Mageia logo in the navigation bar, so that it
+too brands the page to the project;
+ - /content: better structure the mageia.org domain into main activities/zones.
+
+I know that some may worry that some links currently in the top nav
+bar won't be available/visible anymore in all mageia.org as a first
+level item. It's a matter of context and of the very details of the
+implementation and the navigation channels.
+
+I don't have a B plan about that at this time, but it's not mandatory
+to change all things either. So it either works, or it doesn't.
+
+
+Note that (for a future/long term question), separating what is about
+the product (Features, Downloads, Support, News) from what is about
+the project/community (About Us, Community, part of Support,
+Contribute) would help a lot (different life cycles for the sites),
+but it needs to have a separate name for each too.
+

Hi Bradley,
+
+> We have a budget. And some of these sites are not free (Nor should we
+> expect them to be). Some of the sites have *some* free services, and
+> some are actually free.
+
+> I need to hear back whether we're going to have this support and that
+> there is a potential to release this *neccessary* funding for us.
+
+If we need a budget, we actually have to put it together before asking
+for it; can you put something together with costs and priorities that
+we can use as a starting point? 
+
+Personally I'd like to concentrate on free content, rather than
+paid-for content, but let's have a look at your proposal and see?
+
+Cheers,

+
+Hi Bradley
+
+I helped with the install screen texts quite a lot, and made sure the 
+graphics designer had made the install screen images with the marketing 
+team text, two different versions in fact. It's ashame that none of that 
+is going to be used in Mageia 2.  Or maybe Anne's using screen shots 
+instead idea can have marketing team text's as part of it?
+
+To give an idea what final installer screen texts would have been or 
+been like after some changes:
+
+1. Mageia is more than just a Linux distribution: it'sa community of 
+users, developers, and advocates from around the world. (18 words)
+
+2. Mageia is international - you can use it and be part of our community 
+in your own language. (17 words)
+
+We need something that explains the repo's, or makes it clear, that 
+loads of applications can be quickly downloaded and installed for 3. (Seb)
+
+3. Mageia has lots of different types of applications ready for  quick 
+easy install - Office, Internet, Development, Education, and more. (19 
+words)
+
+4. Mageia Control Center allows the easy set upofuser accounts, 
+hardware, software, networking, security and more. (17words)
+
+5. Using Mageia meansyou are part of our community - please get 
+involved! www.mageia.org (13 words)
+
+Pretty good aren't they? Shame none of them will be being used in Mageia 
+2 it seems. I guess they can be used in Mageia 3 though instead or 
+something similar.

+Indeed I have had major issues with that before, emails not appearing on

+Yep that's basically it, if first send the message from Identica it can 
+also go to Twitter, and from Twitter some how to Facebook.  If send the 
+message first from Diaspora to Identica, it can then go to Twitter and 
+like I said before from Twitter to Facebook some how.
+
+With Identica got to use ! to send to the group 
+http://identi.ca/group/mageia however Twitter only uses # which would 
+send to a tag on Identica http://identi.ca/tag/mageia and the Identica 
+bridge to Twitter automatically converts ! to # when sending the message 
+to Twitter.
+
+Yes Identica and Diaspora aren't mainstreame social networking sites 
+such as Twitter and Facebook, however Mageia has a presence there, and 
+so they should be taken seriously as well and ideally by the whole 
+Mageia social networking community. Another reason for them to be taken 
+seriously would be that they are open social networking sites unlike 
+Twitter and Facebook. Identica has mainly Linux users using the site it 
+seems, and I think that's the same for Diaspora.
+
+Twitter can't send to Identica directly for example.
+
+Anyway that's a good idea I could do a chart or something like that 
+later on, trying to explain this stuff as well.

+I am still quite new to sending emails to mailing lists really. Took me 
+over a year to join most of the Mageia mailing list's for a few reasons. 
+Then I started sending to them as I started to join teams in December.  
+Some of the Mageia mailing lists are the first mailing lists that I am 
+sending messages to and then a bit later on the LUG as well.
+
+In early January I finally bothered to join the LUG mailing list, which 
+I am glad I have done. Been to the LUG once so far, and that was fun :). 
+Would have been twice, but some travel issues and there wasn't really a 
+proper meeting that time anyway. Gave away most of the Mageia 1 KDE and 
+Gnome CD's from FOSDEM 2012 that I wanted to get rid of last month as 
+well :).
+
+Going to the LUG probably at the end of this month :).
+
+Really when it comes to online communication I prefer much more instant 
+communication such as IRC and instant messaging, however now since 
+Mageia I am starting to become much more of an emails person as well.

+
+Loads of open source projects have planets and here are two more:
+http://planet.gnome.org/ http://planetkde.org/
+
+I guess Planets for opensource/freesoftware projects are fashionable at 
+the moment. I mean something that by many people is expected at the 
+moment for a opensource/freesoftware project to have.
+
+I used to help a lot with Ubuntu in IRC in 2008, 2009, and 2010. I used 
+to chat to loads of different people who were using or trying out Ubuntu 
+in private message as well for example.  Also I have seen new users at 
+the time put this kind of thing on IRC: How they think the Ubuntu 
+community is really good, and that's what made them use Ubuntu.
+
+I don't like the distro itself that much any more for various reasons 
+since 9.04/9.10, however will still try it out at times. Oh I know, and 
+I have seen it for myself a lot, they have a very good community for 
+their distro and it's been like that for many years.
+
+What I think as contributors of a new distribution, we should learn a 
+lot from the other distro's such as Ubuntu when it comes to running a 
+community and providing something for a community.  Do some of the same 
+things like we do at the moment such  as, planets, and forums, and IRC  
+channels and so on.  However we need to also think about doing something 
+different as well communitywise that will attract new users to our 
+distro, rather than the others, and try and do that as well. Well if the 
+long term goal is to try and have Mageia being one of the most used 
+distros.  If we don't do something different that attracts many new 
+users to our community, well why should a new user pick Mageia over many 
+other distro's really?
+
+If we are going to have a rather big user base for Mageia, we need to 
+keep on working on the community making it better and better, not just 
+the distro itself!

+
+Thing is with the control centre, Mandriva obviously also has a version 
+of it as well, but also PC Linux OS, Unity Linux, and I think all the 
+distro's based on Unity Linux.  Unity Linux is more of a distribution 
+builder than a distro or something like that.
+

+I think that distro's collaboration is a rather good thing indeed such 
+as the AppStream project: http://identi.ca/notice/92041870 However 
+Mageia could do with something proper in the distro that makes it unique 
+from all or many other distro's, something much more than the control

+much bigger user base. I remember some of the founders had this idea

[Mageia-marketing] Mageia Lightning Talk

+
+ +
Hi
+
+On the 30th March someone started emailing the LUG mailing list that I 
+am on, about an event for the local IT and business community that will 
+be at one of the universities here.  The idea of the event is so that 
+the Computer Science department can build up a closer connection with 
+the local IT and business community.
+
+It's a event for IT related people such as, developers, web designers, 
+business users, hobbyists, DBAs, and SysAdmins.
+
+The event is a workshop where groups can promote them selves, with side 
+rooms available as well.
+
+There were replies on the mailing list and I replied as well. I told him 
+how I am contributing to Mageia and wanted to build up more interest in 
+the project in the local community and so on.
+
+After sending him my requested phone number and then whilst earlier 
+talking to him on the phone it was suggested that I did a Lightning talk 
+about Mageia.
+
+If I am to do this it will be in front of about 100 people it seems, 
+that are university staff and students and people from the local IT and 
+business community.
+
+I may have not done a talk before in front of such a big audience, but I 
+did do a talk about Tim Berners-Lee, and web standards in front of one 
+of my college classes, in 2005/6. So I am not that worried that it will 
+be in front of a lot of people. In fact I quite like the idea of doing a 
+talk in front of a lot of people :).
+
+I think it would be a very good opportunity and experience for me to go 
+to this event and also whilst there to do a Lightning Talk about Mageia. 
+So if anyone would like to help me prepare for this talk, please do so.
+
+Oliver told me that he has some slides for a talk he did before that he 
+can send me.
+
+At this time I don't know when it will be exactly.  I have time to think 
+about if I am going to do the talk or not, but I'll probably get back to 
+him soon to say that I will do it.

+This is exactly what we need people to do, so it's great you're
+thinking about it!
+
+If you need CDs to hand out, there should still be some after LinuxTag

+
+I pulled this from my inbox in the hopes that you and He can get

[Mageia-marketing] Question about the trademark policy and usage of the Mageia logo

+ Thu Apr 5 13:58:21 CEST 2012 +

+
+ +
Hi,
+
+I'm Teemu Otala from LibreStickers.com (site still under construction).
+LibreStickers.com will be a new webshop where one can purchase reasonable priced Open Source related stickers; *nix like distros, software, databases and programming languages. The selection will depend on the responses/approvals from the trademark/logo owners.
+The idea is to raise the awareness of Open Source software with fashionable small stickers (18x26mm) that developers and users can use to decorate their hardware (mainly laptops).
+The site is commercial, but it is not really about making money; just enough to keep it floating (estimated price for a sticker is around 0.70-1 euros at the moment).
+LibreStickers.com would also contribute 0,10€/sold sticker back to the project.
+
+I would like to request your permission to use Mageia logo and perhaps text Mageia on a single sticker - see attached file for early draft version. 
+The sticker will be the highest possible quality: matt laminated vinyl with quality printing. 
+Could you please respond if this request can be approved even partially, and if so what should be changed in the sticker design.
+The idea is to get these ready for LinuxTag2012 in Berlin, I would like to visit Mageia stand to give out some free stickers to the project members. The actual website should be ready by beginning of June 2012.
+
+Best Regards,
+

+I still have enough of those for the remaining FLOSS events in Germany 
+(LinuxTag, FrOSCon and perhaps the Linuxday in Bregenz (Austria))
+
+But in general I have no objection. And "after the event is before the 
+event", meaning there will be many more events coming in the future :)

+The darker one then (for contrast). Could you see that with him (suggesting)?
+
+As for the formal go, I'd like the point to be raised at the board,
+and to be noticed by council (I'll forward the request) as it's about
+brand management, and there's a financial matter. But we could still

Hi All,
+
+After a lengthy absence, it's time to update the planets again. The 
+guidelines for having your blog added can be found at the following wiki 
+page: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Planets. We want them to be full of 
+those who make Mageia what it is ahead of the 2 launch. This doesn't 
+need to be only developers or major team members, because we *all* are 
+Mageia.
+
+For now, until a more formal process is in place, please just send me 
+your name, and a link to your blog. The blogs should primarily be 
+related to Mageia and/or Free Software and are expected to comply with 
+the Mageia Code of Conduct (http://www.mageia.org/en/about/code-of-conduct/)
+
+Any questions or comments please reply to this message or email me 
+directly. We would also eventually like to come up with a better overall 
+design for the planets, so if you are someone who is web design 
+inclined, please also contact me.
+
+Thanks!

+It seems that the event will be on Saturday 19th May, which does not

+I could try giving away Mageia 1 CD's at the event if more are sent, but 
+I think giving away Mageia 2 will be much better.
+
+I wouldn't mind having stickers sent to give out at the event and LUG.
+
+Also it would be good to have papers with official information about 
+Mageia in English that can be given to people at events and LUG's for

+I think really going by the phone call I had, that he wanted me to do a 
+longer talk. However then I said how I hadn't done this kind of thing 
+before, so the Lightning talk got suggested.
+
+Indeed Lightning talks are short about 15 minutes or so, and so topics 
+have to be quick and to the point, especially if going to leave any time 
+for questions.
+
+A Lightning talk is usually a summary or something like that I think, of 
+a project at an event for example, and as you would probably expect the 
+Lightning talks will be at the end of this event.
+
+Knowing me once I got started and feeling comfortable enough I would 
+probably want more than 15 minutes or so really. I mean I talked about 
+Desktop Linux and so on, with someone for three hours and a bit when I 
+went on a podcast for my first time last year for example. Of course 
+that's different since it was done on the computer.
+
+Also when I did that talk about Tim Berners-Lee and web standards in 
+2005 in front of one of my college classes, it was only meant to be 
+about 10 minutes, but was 20 or so.
+
+It seems that I could do a longer talk or presentation and a lightning talk.
+
+I'll email more about this event soon, once I have found out a bit more. 
+Currently waiting for another email reply from him.
+
+I thought about it earlier, but I would actually want the talk/s I am 
+doing to be recorded, so that I can watch it myself, and show lot's of 
+people, well if I am happy enough with it :). Not told the person 
+organising the event this yet, but something that can be done later on.

+Yes that's the beauty, and the bane of it. If you really want to just

+That's the very same file. The use of having it in svn would be to

+Either that, or we move the page very content in the planet side bar,

[Mageia-marketing] First draft of release texts

+
+ +
Hi all,
+
+I had promised that we'd have a first draft of the release texts ready
+for inspection at this meeting, but: we're not there yet.
+
+For the website, Romain will be updating marcom on the structure this
+week, when we can get to work on that. For the blog post - too easy, we
+can put that together very quickly. The only other one which might take
+a bit of work is the press release, which I'm hoping we can get some
+input from council members as to what people would like to see in the
+release - then it will take shape very quickly.
+
+So, see you at the meeting, if everyone's not stunned with chocolate...
+
+Cheers!

Hi all,
+
+Has anyone done any writing towards these? 
+
+We absolutely must have the first draft ready to show council on Monday
+16th, and the deadline for completion is 23 April, so we need to get
+cracking.
+
+Check on the wiki sandbox to see what's needed, and please say when you
+can be online to collaborate on a piratepad or wherever, sometime over
+the weekend - times in UTC please.
+
+Cheers!

I have looked at the sandbox a few times, but I don't know what is 
+needed exactly for the release texts, as in what is meant to be typed.
+
+A Piratepad is a good idea so we can work on it together. In general 
+evening's UK time are a good time for me, not this evening though for 
+example since going out.
+
+Currently UK is on BST, instead of UTC/GMT so one hour a head of that.

+

Hi
+
+I only get 5 minutes for the Mageia Lightning Talk. So any help would be 
+appreciated for the talk as a whole, from how I will introduce myself, 
+what I will say about Mageia, to how I will end the talk. However I have 
+some ideas for this.
+
+I would like some help making some slides for the talk and I would also 
+appreciate having help in creating a talk description for the event 
+website: http://www.itmegameet.co.uk/
+
+The event won't be like FOSDEM where certain talks get recorded. As a 
+result mine won't be recorded and put online, unless I can get someone 
+from the audience to record it for me. However I can probably get 
+someone from the audience to record it for me on their mobile phone for 
+example, but the quality of the video may not be that good as a result 
+if that.
+
+It also seems that some people from other parts of the UK that I know 
+online who use or know about Mageia may come to the event as well to see 
+my talk.  Some people from my LUG may be at the event as well.
+
+Since the event is a few days after the Mageia 2 release if certain 
+people are coming I plan to book a restaurant as well for the evening 
+and celebrate the Mageia 2 release for example :).
+
+With Ubuntu they have release parties after a new final version has been 
+released: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingCommunity/RunningReleaseParty
+
+There won't be a Mageia side room or stand at the event, but hopefully I 
+can be sent official Mageia 2 CD's that I can take with me in a bag and 
+stickers as well. Also I did contact Oliver about this before.
+
+With official Mageia 2 CD's there wouldn't be much time to make and then 
+send them from abroad so that I have them on Saturday 19th May, since 
+the Tuesday 15th May release.
+
+ From Sebastian

Hi,
+
+Just in case it can help you in your task of promoting Mageia 2, here is a 
+link to get a comparison between Mageia 1 and Mageia 2.
+
+* new packages are in green background
+* updated packages in white background
+
+http://mageia.madb.org/package/comparison/source/1/application/0
+
+This shows source packages. The "show only applications" and "regular 
+packages" led me to some SQL errors I must investigate, so meanwhile I 
+advise to not use them on this page.
+
+The group filter should work fine, for example here is the same page for games 
+only:
+
+http://mageia.madb.org/package/comparison/application/0/group/78%2C20%2C64%2C10%2C30%2C46%2C74%2C1/source/1

+(It's still a demo instance for Mageia App Db, it's not running on Mageia 
+servers yet)
+
+Best regards

+
+ +
Hi there,
+
+just wanted to drop a note that Release Notes needs an
+update for the newly added, really beautiful and partly animated
+Mageia E17 themes, made by Agust, which can be seen at
+https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2061
+I could do a draft, but i'd prefer if that could be done by someone
+who's more used to marketing'ish / advertising writing stuff,
+because i totally suck at that.
+
+An important point is that those themes are for now
+exclusive to Mageia, and created by a Mageia user, who
+recently joined forces with artwork team, IIRC.
+
+
+Kind Regards
+
+
+PS: resent after subscribing to the list

+
+Hi,
+
+Sorry for the slow answer. Thank you very much for excellent feedback.
+
+The official palette would be excellent but as the 'mageia' text uses 
+the whole palette (text and dot on top of letter 'i') it would actually 
+mask part of the text nevertheless what palette variant 
+(http://www.mageia.org/en/charter.html) is used.
+
+Therefore it looks like the official palette is a bit tricky leaving us 
+with four options to choose from:
+1) Leave the bottom background totally off 
+(http://librestickers.com/mageia/mageia2.png)
+2) Add a line and text 'Powered by' that both utilize the official 
+palette (http://librestickers.com/mageia/mageia.png)
+3) Alter the mageia text palette to unofficial
+4) Use just some lighter official palette like color
+
+The sticker size is 18mm wide and 26mm high.
+The sticker background color is Satin White (matte) which is suitable 
+for all options listed above.
+There is also a chance of using brushed aluminium background sticker 
+which is very elegant and works nicely with options 1 and 2.
+One open question is also that should there be a text TM (unregistered 
+trademark) following the logo and/or text (as for example Arch Linux 
+prefers)?
+
+If everything goes as planned these will go for printing by the end of 
+next week and will be ready for distribution by 20th of May... 
+Hopefully.
+
+Regards,
+             Teemu
+
+P.S. Still planning to visit LinuxTag2012 and bring a stack of these to 
+Mageia stand plus there will be the 0,10e/sold sticker (from the coming 
+online shop) to the project (10-14% of the actual selling price)

+1 or 2 look good (right colors, good contrast). 3 is not an option.

+i don't think anything special is required, the necessary guest drivers and 
+xen specific stuff should already be in standard kernel/standard install
+
+i would think an install from iso/network should be easily doable and you 
+won't loose that much time with it...

+
+well, depending on how you usually do this for the VPS offering...
+
+A) you could do a kickstart install depending on parameters
+
+B) or just install once, copy it as a template and whenever needed, you can 
+copy this image and make the necessary password changes.

Hi there,
+
+just wanted to drop a note that Release Notes needs an
+update for the newly added, really beautiful and partly animated
+Mageia E17 themes, made by Agust, which can be seen at
+https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2061
+I could do a draft, but i'd prefer if that could be done by someone
+who's more used to marketing'ish / advertising writing stuff,
+because i totally suck at that.
+
+An important point is that those themes are for now
+exclusive to Mageia, and created by a Mageia user, who
+recently joined forces with artwork team, IIRC.
+
+PS: I'm not subscribed to the list, so please make sure you
+use "Reply to All" function so i'll also get follow-up mails.
