Some kind contributors recently cleaned up the Presentations page on
the wiki:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Presentations

Perhaps either an additional section there or a pointer to a similarly
organized page would work?

True. 

Many teachers are fedora contributors and have fedorapeople.org space
to put such things in, but of course thats only there as long as they
are active contributors. 

Perhaps we can look as setting aside some web space for this somewhere,
or using the wiki...

I was talking about instructors who had slides or the like on their own
websites, not the Fedora Classroom page. Often there aren't any, but it
might be worth thinking about how to capture them on Fedora infrastructure
somewhere. But then you need to worry about licensing and such.

Yes. All previous classes were archived on the wiki, you can see them
on the main Classroom page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroom

Newer classes are using the irc meetbot function, and can be found at: 
http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-classroom/
This site is backed up and should be available for a long long long
time. ;)

The classes get recorded and there are usually links to any external
materials in the logs. Though those aren't typically archived in Fedora
infrastructure as far as I have seen. So they may not be available
permanently.

for more details. We have some great looking classes lined up this time!

Also, we are always looking for teachers and suggestions for topics for
new classes. See the above wiki page to add a suggestion or just reply
to this email or mailing list thread. 

Hope to see a bunch of you there!

Fedora Classroom talk: Using the Windows cross-compiler

2009-03-04 Thread Richard W.M. Jones
  Date:   Sunday, 8th March 2009
  Time:   18:15 UTC [1]
  Location:   Virtual -- #fedora-classroom on irc.freenode.net
  Details:https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroom#The_Current_Timeline
  Background: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Windows_cross_compiler
  IRC help:   https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/IRCHowTo

A talk and interactive session, "Using the Windows cross-compiler":

  - API basics: POSIX, libc, Win32, gtk, Qt, etc.

  - Cross-compiler basics

  - Practical demonstration:
  setting up the cross-compiler in Fedora
  compiling a small Gtk program
  testing it in Wine
  building a Windows installer

  - Future directions (Win64, Mac OS X ?)

  - How to get involved

If you have root access to a Fedora 10 or rawhide install (i386 or
x86-64 only) you can follow along with the practical part.

Rich.

Fedora Classroom: KDE4 for KDE3 users

2008-12-04 Thread Rex Dieter
I'll be helping to lead an irc classroom session titled "KDE4 for KDE3
users" this coming Saturday, Dec 6 at 14:45 UTC.  Be there or be square.

That's just a tentative title for the session, we'll likely be open to
discuss all things KDE4. Topics off the top of my head right now will
include:

* KDE4 for KDE3 users: Help answer anything of the form:  "In KDE3, I used
to do XXX, how does KDE4 do XXX?"
* An overview of KDE pillars: phonon, plasma, oxygen, solid, etc...
* The future of KDE4.  The future's so bright, gotta wear shades
* Are the cubs finally gonna make the world series?
* I want ponies, where are the ponies?

Announcing Fedora Classroom Sessions

2008-11-03 Thread Kevin Fenzi
I thought I would post here for those that haven't seen the
announcement about classroom sessions yet: 

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2008-November/msg2.html

(and do consider taking a few minutes now to subscribe to
fedora-announce). 

A few things to add to the announcement: 

We will be logging these classroom IRC sessions and putting them up on
the fedoraproject.org wiki. So, if you are unable to attend you can
take a look at the logs at your leasure. 

We will be holding another set of classes in december, which will be
stagged so that folks in other timezones will have a better chance to
attend. See the wiki page for more details. 

Hope to see lots of folks there!
