 The SVG's don't contain any content for me, so I don't know what's already
 mentioned :(

 General resources to link to: https://developer.fedoraproject.org/

 MicroPython and the BBC micro:bit may be worth mentioning, but I'm not
 entirely clear on the current status of those. I've requested more info
 regarding MicroPython at
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1113915#c16

 Details on working with the micro:bit are covered in

The recommendation here in this ticket was not "go to meetings" it was
to "do stuff."

Though not always fast or easy, meetings are a necessary part of doing
distributed decentralized work in open and public ways.

I don't think everyone on this list, or elsewhere Fedora, feels the
same way about meetings as you do MarkDude. We must not diminish the
time and effort that contributors put into making meetings happen,
which almost always have public agendas that are open to contributions
and suggestions, should you feel they are not maximally productive.

I would point to the Fedora Design team's re-worked meeting protocol
as a model for keeping meetings focused, task oriented, and
ticket-driven (described by mizmo here):

I think that funding and budgetary requests--though an important
issue--are somewhat out of scope for this thread.

If you would like to comment on budget impact and reciprocity, please
see my most recent requests to the Ambassadors--whom the Fedora
Council and Ambassador Steering Committee have empowered to spend (and
report) their own regional budgets as they see fit.

I'm still waiting on either reports, proposals, or delegation
selections from each region, which are necessary for us to continue
budget planning and allocation for FY17:

Thank you jbishop for taking the initiative on this ticket to help
bring more light to the places where Fedora is having a positive
impact outside of our community. This is an important role that
members of the CommOps team serve in the project, and can potentially
make a big difference :)

/me loves this idea. It's one of the things that drew me to Fedora.
Unfortunately, it falls apart at times when it come to the reality of
FUNDING. We should add parenthetically; go to more meetings, and have your
soul die a bit as you do so.

This is a totally normal thing to wonder about, and I have an answer for you:

Just Do It.
Do the things.

Your are implicitly powered, as a member of the Fedora community, to
dive in an contribute. You don't need my permission, or the marketing
team's, or anyone else's. Most of us would rather celebrate progress
than have you block on process. In the event that you do make a
mistake, the wiki is revision controlled, and we can revert it if we
need to, or migrate your work to a different place.


> The one question that I had was where I should put my work. Does it go

Think of the wiki as the "whiteboard" or "working document," and the
Trac as the place where we track the task at hand. There can be
information sharing and flow between them, but generally, Trac is the
place where we update everyone with links and progress, and the wiki
is where we collaboratively edit the content.

Hope This Helps,

Thanks Sylvia,

Maybe we could do a mashup of the vagrant logo + an image that
represents sshfs.

google image search for sshfs at: [1] 

Example mashup at [2]

Could we get someone to make an image for us? Would it be possible to
publish this post today?

Thanks,
Dusty

The article is good from technical side, simple and but still explains

Hi Dusty!

I'm taking a look. But I know very little of Vagrant so someone else
should take a look as well.
From what I see, your article is quite good and complete.  It needs an

Hi Justin,

Thanks for getting back to me yet. The big thing I was wondering about
was what was already done, since I saw a few names already attached to
the ticket. I was also concerned about stepping on toes due to going
ahead and doing stuff without checking in first.

The one question that I had was where I should put my work. Does it go
on the TRAC, or the wiiki?

Thanks!
