Hi, Phill.

Congratulations on the job done, the page looks great.

I just want to ask you something, in the section Who are you?
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities#Who_are_you.3F people are
encouraged to register themselves and their testmachines.
Thing is, how can that be done? Both WhoWeAre
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/WhoWeAre and Hardware
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Hardware are non editable since they
are Immutable Pages.

Cheers,
David Pires

Hi,

just so as you don't think we sit around and do nothing about the
wiki area while you all play with auto testing etc :P  In the last
couple of weeks a fair few man hours have been spent on an edit of
of the activities page[1].

It is now live, please pass comments to this email thread (reply
to all) and it can be tweaked. The major change is that the page
that had become frankentsiens monster as it grew ever larger (and
totally against wiki guidlines) has now a structure and all the
areas it refers to are bite-size chunks of information.

Please check that the sub pages which are of your own interest are
fully up to date, as from now on... you will be responsible for
keeping them updated :D QA is now too big to have one person
oversee the entire wiki area and this is the start of making it so
that people can volunteer to look after various pages.

Joking aside, there has been a lot of hours put into the new look.
I've even gone so far as to have a human read them and make some
edits [sharp intake of breath]. I hope you like the new area and
look forward to your comments.

Regards.

Phill.

Indeed :)
When it comes to Wiki Editing, Phill is one of the best. I call him Sensei
for a reason :)



 As always anytime you see some confusing or broken bits of information on
 the wiki bring it up, or hop in and fix it :-)


+1
Let's work as a team and help each other :)
It is true my Testing Activities for the last two years were all about
Lubuntu (99%) but that is no longer valid. I'm up to testing other flavors
too this cycle :)
Also, I will do my best to help as much as I can with Wiki Editing :)


 It represents our collective knowledge as a group and requires all of us
 to keep sorted and updated.


I second that. Well said.


Thank you, Phill for the great work and thanks everyone for making this
community better and better :)

Re: Activities page

2013-07-20 Thread Phill Whiteside
Hi Istimsak,

the tutorial / classroom session have prominence at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities#How_can_I_learn_how_to_test.3F I've
also updated the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities/Classroom area
that it points to. Adding on a link to the hackfest area is a small task,
if you're familiar with wiki editing, go ahead and add a mention and the
link. If not, please reply and I'll go do it. As Nicholas mentioned, being
able to minor wiki edits is a great tool to have.

If there are people who do not have those skills, then I'm also happy to
schedule up a classroom session on the basics needed to set up your own
'home' wiki page.

Regards,

Phill.

 It is possible to add hackfest and QA classroom logs on this page for
 bookkeeping? These events are all part of QA activities.

Hi,

well what can I say?

Sorry if you get this more than once... but as the key phrase is:


   - Unfortunately the attackers have gotten every user's local username,
   password, and email address from the Ubuntu Forums database.

I have sent it to all the mailing lists I know of, please do pass it on to
others.

Regards,

Phill.
