 Request to change https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css to
 the following:
 
 =
 .messagebox.wikicleanup {
   background-image: url(/w/uploads/7/72/Wiki-cleanup-background.png);
   background-repeat: repeat;
 }
 =
 
 Reason: to allow for [[Template:Wiki cleanup]] (a new admonition to
 replace using {{admon/note}} in {{move}}, {{delete}}, etc) to stand out
 from other admonitions as not being alerting to the user, but rather to
 wiki gardeners.
 
 The reason this can't be done right in the template is because MediaWiki
 is very, very careful about external images (even though this one is
 technically internal).
 
 Effect on remainder of wiki/website/world: Little to none. An error
 should have no effect on the rest of the style of the wiki, except for
 user styles. I do not believe there to be an error in the above.
 
 Why I'm asking: I have to wield my sysop powers on the wiki to do this,
 and I just wanted to make sure it was cool (especially since we're in a
 change freeze). Why I'm asking now: I'll forget later.

static F10 Alpha relnotes page

2008-08-04 Thread Karsten 'quaid' Wade
Do we want to turn this page static for the Alpha release?

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/10/Alpha/ReleaseNotes

I put out the last call for changes and am making a few myself.  Is
there a good target for calling to static for now?

We'll want to make sure we can edit it.  Perhaps as part of making it
static we can tell people to post changes to the talk page, then we'll
do irregular updates of the static content?

Thanks - Karsten

I responded to the user directly, and turned that in to this:

This early after the migration, we gain from using each of these QA
sessions as publicity about how to Do The Right Thing.

I didn't realize this discussion was cross-posted, I already sent my
agreement to this idea to the other thread.  Having a group 'gsoc_2008'
or 'summercoders_2008' could help more than just this problem.  As was
said elsewhere, these _are_ Fedora contributors, but they don't all fit
directly in to an existing group, or their contributions are being
filtered outside of the group.

 Why not just gsoc?  I don't understand what we gain from the _2008?

Gain, not sure.  Lose, the ability to differentiate between groups.

A main purpose of GSoC is to get more coders into more projects.

For this reason, all students who stick around Fedora should be in other
groups.  Their continued presence in last year's group should *not* be
construed as an ongoing contributor effort.  By the end of this Summer,
the group is essentially defunct.  If that is the only group someone is
in, and six months later ... it's still the only group, then they aren't
contributing to any coding projects.  If they move on to Ambassadors,
then they are in another group, are contributing, etc.

Does that make sense?

For a similar reason, I recommend a generic name.  Maybe all interns and
summer coders could be in the group.  That way we can include the
Finnish Summer Code effort into this, and any RHT interns that aren't
part of another group (yet.)

OpenID and CLA

2008-05-26 Thread Karsten 'quaid' Wade
Just doing some thinking ...

If we want to move our OpenID acceptance outside of Fedora's OpenID
server, we'll have a blocker with the CLA.  AIUI, we need someone to
knowingly accept the CLA and have that tied to a Real Name and email
address in our database.  Right?

However, OpenID could be a good way to get permissions to Talk: pages.
That is a great way to get feedback from drive-bys, the kind of people
who might take advantage of an OpenID to make a minor change on a
page.  

Content in Talk: could be treated procedurally as we do bug reports.
Maybe we can have a WikiLicense type of thing (FedoraProject:Copyrights
link enough?) for that?  Either way, Talk: could be a discussion area,
cf. mailing lists and bugzilla, that may produce content.  If someone
gives specific wording and we want to use it, and now or later modify
it, redistribute it, etc., it needs to be under the CLA and site
license.  This is comparable to receiving a patch via bugzilla where the
contributor should include licensing text.

 actually I was thinking of just having different .planet files:

 a simple type of group.

+1 ... I like the whole thing, this is a nice level of self-service.
