Hi Fedora Magazine,

I read that Fedora Magazine is looking for contributors and I would like to 
introduce myself.

I am Israel Pineda. Currently, I am a Ph.D. student of Computer Science. 
Previously I got my master and my bachelor degrees in the same field. Between 
my bachelor and my master degree, I went to industry to work as a software 
developer for almost five years also getting some experience with system 
administration.

I have been working with Linux for around 10 years, around five years ago I 
became a full-time Fedora guy and I use it as my main (and only) OS for my 
desktop and laptops. I also have done a thing or two with CentOS and in the 
past I have used other Linux distributions.

Lastly, I've been busy writing scientific papers for conferences and journals. 
I would like to showcase the usage of Fedora as a platform for science; an 
operating system where you can carry out your experiments, your data analysis, 
your publishing, etc. The idea I have right now is to document in an article 
the process of writing a thesis using Fedora. There are many hurdles during the 
thesis writing period and I think that and article in that topic might motivate 
many students and give some light at the end of the tunnel.

Looking forward to your comments.



Greetings, Israel, and welcome to the Magazine team! We are glad to see 
you here, and it sounds like you have a notable background working in 
Linux systems and Fedora. That's awesome!


I actually recently attended a talk about open science and how Linux and 
open source software fits into what's going on in the scientific 
community. I think having some articles showing the capabilities of 
Fedora in a scientific context are *awesome* ideas. There is actually a 
Scientific Lab that might be a good idea to write about along with some 
of the tools it features, if that sounds like something that might be 
interesting to you.


https://labs.fedoraproject.org/en/scientific/

Alternatively, if there are tools you are using that are available in 
Fedora for scientific use that you'd like to write about, I think any of 
those would be awesome. Writing a thesis with Fedora sounds like an idea 
that might attract a lot of clicks from other students for sure. ;)


Your next steps for getting started should be to look at writing a pitch 
for the Magazine. You can find links to the general "checklist" for 
writing for the Magazine as well as some info about writing a pitch 
below. This info should be helpful and useful for you to get started.

If you have any questions about the process, please feel free to ask on 
the mailing list or visit our IRC meetings on Thursdays in 
#fedora-meeting on IRC at 21:00 UTC. Once again, welcome aboard, and 
looking forward to seeing anything you come up with!

Hi there,

I just read that Fedora Magazine is looking for contributors and I would like 
to take up this opportunity to introduce myself.

I am Abhishek Prakash, a software developer with over 5 years of experience. I 
use Linux as my main desktop at home. I mainly use Ubuntu but I keep on trying 
new distros. I have used Fedora as well, so don't think of me as an outsider :)

If you want to assess my writing skills, you can read my articles at my blog 
It's FOSS (http://itsfoss.com/).

As a desktop user, I'll mainly focus on desktop related articles, how-to, tips 
and list articles.

I look forward to join the team.



Hello, Abhishek, and welcome aboard to the Magazine team! We're glad to 
have you here. If I'm thinking of the right website, I think you have a 
pretty popular site on your hands too already. Awesome to see another 
FOSS writer join forces. :)


As Sylvia mentioned in her reply, the best way to start is coming up 
with a topic you're interested and passionate in. A good "checklist" for 
getting started with writing for the Magazine can be found here.


https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-an-article-for-the-fedora-magazine/

Your next step should be to log into the Magazine with your FAS account, 
and then you will be able to begin working on a pitch. A pitch is 
basically the quick summary about your idea and how you want to break up 
the article. You can see more info about writing a pitch here.


https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-a-new-pitch/

Hope you find this info useful. Feel free to hop into the Magazine and 
get started writing a pitch whenever you have a chance. We're open to 
hearing any ideas you might have or seeing what you come up with! If you 
have any questions, feel free to ask or stop by our Magazine meeting 
(weekly on Thursdays, 21:00 UTC).


Once again, welcome aboard to the team!

Welcome aboard, Matthew! I think Remy has it mostly covered, but now 
that you've logged into the Magazine, you should check out writing a 
pitch for any article ideas you might have.


For understanding what a pitch is and how to write one, check out this page.

https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-a-new-pitch/

If you have any questions, always feel free to ask, we want to help you 
be successful here! Again, welcome, and looking forward to seeing

Matthew,

Welcome and thanks for answering the call :)

Quoting Ryan Lerch's advice for new contributors to the Magazine below:

"""
First up (if you haven't already), you can log into the Magazine
wordpress instance with your FAS account:
http://fedoramagazine.org/logging-into-fedora-magazine-with-fas/

Once you have done that for the first time, let us know for FAS
username here on this list, and one of the editors can grant you
permission to create new posts.

Once we have gotten that access sorted, feel free to jump in to the
wordpress instance, and create a new "pitch". A pitch is typically
just a few sentences of what you think your proposed post will cover.
All of the posts in the magazine start with a pitch, just to be sure
that we don't waste time writing up a full article that might not be a
good fit for the magazine.

Also, feel free to jump into #fedora-mktg on Freenode anytime and ask
questions, there should be people around to answer!
"""

We look forward to getting to know you, and helping you help us tell
stories :)

Hi Sumantro!

Somehow, this email was lost in my inbox and I'm only just now seeing 
it. Super sorry for the late response, but I think we can get you 
bootstrapped and familiar with how the Magazine works. I'm going to 
include the Marketing mailing list in my reply so the rest of the team 
can know that you are interested in writing too.


Firstly, when getting started with writing for the Magazine, you should 
check out this great intro post about how to write for the Magazine.


https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-an-article-for-the-fedora-magazine/

This page has a lot of details and pointers for getting started you may 
find useful. Something that page mentions is writing a pitch for your 
article. A pitch is the first step for writing for the Magazine, and 
it's how the rest of the editing team can get the gist of what you're 
writing about. A link explaining how to write the pitch is below.


https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-a-new-pitch/

Hopefully this should be enough to get you started. Seems like we 
probably missed the test day, but for any future articles you want to 
write about, we'd be happy to see anything you come up with! If you have 
questions, please let us know. If you need help resolving your mailing 
list issues, you can reply directly to me in an email - otherwise, try 
to use the public mailing list.


Sorry again for the late response, and welcome!

 Replying to [comment:4 alick]:
 > Hi, sorry for jumping in without following up the previous discussions.
 >

 No worries, thanks for adding feedback to the discussion here in the
 ticket.

 > About the drafts, for the Affliates page, I think it'll be good to add
 more WIIFM points. For example, to show support for Fedora and FOSS in
 general, to make their contributions officially recognized, to learn from
 experiences from peer organizations, etc.
 >

 I think this is a good idea as well. Is having special mentions and
 acknowledgements at something like Flock (and possibly regional FUDCons,
 where relevant) useful? That might be one avenue to pursue too. I think
 tying it into a network of support and recognition for contributions is a
 good idea as well.

 > About the badge, I'm not sure how the badge awarding process will work
 (for groups)? Maybe it will be awarded to the current coordinators from
 each group? It seems good since it encourages them to join FAS if they
 have not. But we need to consider the "handover" from old coordinators to
 new ones.
 >

 For badges, we could create a FAS group that would be able to handle this.
 I suppose the question is where a "company" or "organization" FAS is the
 recommended approach or if we want contributors associated with the entity
 (e.g. school system administrators in a Fedora school) to receive the
 badge based on their own affiliation as well.

 > About the information to include, I'd suggest to add an (optional) image
 as a showcase/proof. One image is worth a thousand words!
 >
 > I prefer the approval process is lightweight. Say a wiki page for
 submissions, and a few dedicated moderators review them and move the
 information to an "official" wiki page. The latter page is thus not be
 edited by others.
 >

 I'm thinking a dedicated "portal" for this might even be a good idea,
 either on getfedora.org (which may not be the appropriate place) or
 something like affiliates.fedoraproject.org. This would require syncing up
 with the Websites team and we should avoid doing that until farther along
 in this proposal. But long-term, I'm thinking that's best.

 > Finally, I kinda doubt "Affliates" the most right word in such
 context... Is there a better way to say "Non-individual" users?
 >

 See some of my above comments about alternate names. I'm particular to
 "Friends of Fedora".

 Replying to [comment:5 mailga]:
 > IMHO there's the risk of having a nonsense wiki structure is real.
 That's a project we could consider as Ambassador task before a Mktg task.
 >
 > Please consider that mktg cannot keep contacts with the several
 components of affiliates; affiliates must be "mentored" (not the right
 word, maybe) first by ambassador an then having a preferential channel
 with marketing.

 affiliates.

 This is where part of our discussion in the meeting led to. Here's some of
 the ideas from the meeting.

 = Ideas for affiliate program =

 * Having this as a shared responsibility between Marketing and Ambassadors
 might be a good idea.
 * A potential affiliate could get in touch with an Ambassador (or vice
 versa) and the Ambassador can come to Marketing with the affiliate
 request.
 * An individual in Marketing / Ambassadors can "sponsor" a request based
 on previous relationships (example used in meeting is jflory7 with
 Rochester Institute of Technology in NYS (as a student), or similar type
 of idea).

 > Also, can we consider to have a website such like
 www.fedoraaffiliates.fp.o (or similar), or do we manage them in hubs? Do
 we consider to create a FAS group "affiliates" if doesn't exists yet?
 >

 Alternatively to the above suggestion, Hubs may be the ideal place to
 integrate this with.

Comment (by mailga):

 Please take care to create the page starting from the link in the [main
 wikipage https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing#Release_deliverables]
 that leads [here https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F24_screenshots_library].

 The process is very simply, I installed the release and the spin in
 several VM and took the screenshot.
 I only paid attention to have screenshots in the same resolution.
 Last time the desktop background changed a bit between the beta and the
 final in LXDE or XFCE spin (if I recall correctly), so it make sense wait
 until we are sure that the release will happen.

 = Phenomenon =

 It's about that time of year! Fedora 24 is just around the corner. For
 Fedora 23, the idea came up of having a different kind of release
 announcement, adding more "human" parts of the magic happening for each
 release into the announcement. mattdm expressed interest in this then, but
 due to the time crunch, we didn't have as much time to work on it as we
 liked.

 = Background Analysis =

 We need to see how many hands we have available for this task, what kind
 of angles we want to approach, and whether we want to do one or two
 versions of the announcement (and if two, where the two types end up
 going).

 = Implementation Recommendation =

 This will be a good topic for the meeting to decide how we want to shape
 this release announcement. We will discuss it in today's meeting and then
 also wait for feedback from others who are unable to attend.

 '''Discussed in [https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-
 meeting-1/2016-05-18/marketing.2016-05-18-20.55.html 2016-05-18 meeting].

 In the [https://fedorapeople.org/groups/schedule/f-24/f-24-marketing-
 tasks.html upcoming marketing tasks] for Fedora 24, it lists taking
 screenshots for the next release as an objective.

 = Background Analysis =

 This was completed for
 [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/F23_Screenshots Fedora 23].
 Important questions to ask:

 * What screenshots are needed?
 * Who needs the screenshots?
 * Where will they be used?

 = Implementation Recommendation =

 If needed, we can have someone run the F24 Beta to take screenshots.
 cprofitt volunteered to do this earlier if needed.

 mailga, since you led this task for Fedora 23, could you explain the
 process and what needs to be done for F24 (e.g. do we only need
 screenshots of new things or all the DEs)?

 I think this idea is fantastic, but I'm a little concerned about the
 name "affiliate".  That word is often used to represent a financial
 relationship between a company and another person or company who helps
 the first company get more sales in exchange for a percentage of the
 sale.  Since there's no financial relationship here, might it make
sense
 to look for a different name to describe the relationship?

 Thanks for filing this ticket, mailga. I would be glad to accept this
 nomination. This ticket will be added to tonight's meeting agenda. If
 possible, it will be great if you can attend to give some background about
 FOSCo to any other Marketing members.

 In order to have a FOSCo proposal for The Council before the deadline
 (July 1st), the actual FAMSCo asked for a Marketing coordinator for one of
 the seats in the new body.

 At the moment FAmSCo is evaluating how FOSCo have to be structured and the
 real interest of the groups to be included.

 Summarizing the state of the things, cwickert sent a mail in the
 Ambassador ML with all the links of interest. You can find it
 
[https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/ambassad...@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/5O6VMGJZXNUE2V52ITZ5K6NSQQ5N6262/
 here].

 Jflory7 is a good choice for coordination, I'm supporting his nomination.

 For any other nomination or question, please reply in this ticket. For
 proposals about FOSCo transition, reply to the Christoph post in the
 ambassadors or in the council-discuss ML.

Comment (by jflory7):

 Hi all,

 On the Marketing list, Jared Smith (jsmith) also shared Alick's concern
 about the name. I proposed a few other alternatives, and I'm going to copy
 my email to the list here to keep it all in an easily referable place. We
 can also cover this in today's Marketing meeting.

 I think the name is a valid concern. An alternative that immediately comes
 to mind is "Friends of Fedora", but I'm not sure if that's too cliché or
 if it's been used in the past. It might also make sense to do this to tie
 it into our Four Foundations too.

 Some other alternative names could be...

 * Partners (maybe the same problem)
 * #FedoraLive (or something similar, insinuating Fedora being "live" in
 the field)
 * #WeAreFedora (taking from #WeAreRedHat a little, empowering people /
 organizations using Fedora)

 Just a few ideas. Let me know if any of these sound better!

Hi José! Sorry for the late response, I just noticed your email never 
got a reply. We'd love to have you write for us! If you haven't seen 
this page yet, please refer to it for the steps you need to write for 
the Magazine.


https://fedoramagazine.org/writing-an-article-for-the-fedora-magazine/

If you have already logged in once to the Magazine, we just need to know 
your Fedora Account System username to look up your account, and then we 
can grant you privileges. After that, you can get started with writing a 
pitch for review by the rest of the Magazine team.


Looking forward to seeing anything you come up with! If you have more 
questions, please let us know and we will be happy to help you get started.
