Re: [Ambassadors] Fedora marketing needs you!

all,

I do not think that smolt statistics have the absolute truth to consider
when determining the language usage... I do know that there are a lot of
people (including me) that do not use their mother tongue for the OS
interface... and choose English.

I'm developing in English and after that translate into other languages
including my native...

I do agree that there needs to be a pilot phase for this... but I think in
very short time you should extend this using any person that volunteers...

Taking in consideration the economic background for this period we should be
pushing more and more press releases into as much languages as we can... and
also hit traditional media: TV, radio, newspapers... probably most of them
will be discarded but any rise in articles about Fedora is welcomed...

So all in all... when you're including Romanian... please count on me !

 Hello dear Fedora Ambassadors,

 During the last couple of weeks, the Fedora Marketing [1] group has done
 some serious internal reorganization, most of which you probably don't
 care about very much right now ;)

 One important thing to notice is the apparition of something called the
 News Distribution Network [2]. This is where we need you, the
 Ambassadors!

 The News Distribution Network is a joint effort between the marketing
 group and the ambassador group to effectively push Fedora news to the
 media. As you can see on [2], we are currently searching 2-3 people for
 each of the following languages:

 * English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi and Italian

 Your role will be to help us spread news. If you read the whole page
 [2], it should be pretty clear what we expect from you :)

 If you are interested, feel free to contact me so we can discuss your
 candidature during the next IRC marketing meeting next Tuesday.

 Have a nice day

Red Hat's Plymouth Sees New Work

2009-03-06 Thread Rahul Sundaram

Hi

http://www.osnews.com/story/21090/Red_Hat_s_Plymouth_Sees_New_Work

Plymouth is a freedesktop.org project to create a flicker free 
graphical bootup system designed and developed by Red Hat and included 
in Fedora 10. Red Hat has been working on Xorg drivers and within the 
Linux kernel to improve and enhance the kernel mode support needed for 
Plymouth. Fedora 10 included support for many ATI cards and this is 
being developed further in Fedora 11 to cover Intel and Nvidia cards as 
well. Plymouth supports a flexible and powerful plug-in system which can 
be used to create Plymouth themes. Fedora includes several of them 
including a simple progress bar and the solar plugin. Now additional 
work is being done to improve many things and this will land up in 
Fedora 11 as well.

 This. Do this. :)

The Dutch are getting together and see how they can improve the Fedora 
community in the Netherlands March 7th.
