We've added the key information and download link to the keys page and to the fedora.gpg. The verify page will require a bit more rewording. Perhaps it's best to leave that until the F11 release? Then we can make changes that will reflect the new check sum file name and the use of sha256sum, and note that older releases used SHA1SUM and the sha1sum program. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To err is human; to blame it on somebody else is even more human. -- John Nadeau -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Once it does, your counter will automatically switch. There's no reason the counter couldn't start earlier, but that would be up to someone to create the banner in association with the Art team, and get it into the website repo. -- Paul W.

It is early, for the last releases we had it running in the last month or so, when we had quite sure the release date will not have a major delay. AFAIK, Paolo Leoni from the Art Team, who did the graphics for F10, expressed the interest to make them for F11 too. The artwork used in the Beta release (Greek landscape with temple) is going to be replaced with something completely different, so once we are settled on the wallpaper graphic, the counter can be made to fit it. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ From stickster at gmail.com Thu Apr 2 15:01:49 2009 From: stickster at gmail.com (Paul W.

Initially I've planned to make and propose the countdown banner to the community around April 20th, in order to wait that theming process is mostly completed. If you want that the countdown banner is available before this date, I'll work on it soon as possible. I've read on fedora planet about a F11 countdown banner, but I've noticed that it don't respect resolution requirements (200 x 100) for the home page. If the author can read this mailing list, please correct the resolution if you want to propose the banner to the community. 2009/4/2 Paul W.

It'd be easy enough to add a small box, as on the get-fedora-all page, that says "After downloading an ISO, verify it" with a link to the verify page. The one issue that would remain is that the filenames have changed since the previous releases and I'm not sure that it's best to change the verify text to reflect that just yet. If we did, it would be confusing to folks looking to verify their download of the stable F10 release. If we wait until F11 is the stable release, I think it may be acceptable to let folks downloading an older release figure out that the filenames need changing, I think.

Actually, I just searched around the docs site a bit, and maybe we should add a link to http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/f10/en_US/sn-which-arch.html. This has both the model names and types. It still might be a bit intimidating to many people though, since it attempts to list every single possible case (I still find "Intel-compatible PC" to be a bit easier to understand). If users aren't sure which of i386 or x86_64 to choose, should we make it clearer that i386 will work if they're not sure?

This reminded me about another problem related to the i386/x86_64/ppc download confusion: Release confusion. We have also been finding a lot of users downloading the Fedora 11 Beta by accident, not realizing that it is not a production release. I think this may be because it appears first on the "See all torrents" and "See all custom spins" without a warning... Either way, I think we can solve both problems at once by organizing the download options and presenting a few more (more than just i386, at least) them on the main download page. I've attached a mockup I made that combines the "Get Fedora" and "Show me all downloads in one page" pages.

We should promote the x86_64 as the default choice with a visible link "For older PCs and Netbooks click *here*" (More information)". In F11 effort was made to change the default x86 arch from i386 to i586 to gain extra performance, but benchmarks that I have done back than have clearly showed that you gain much more from moving moving to x86_64. Not only that you have access to more registers MMX, SSE and SSE2 can be used unconditionally. Besides this x86_64 allows the use of more memory and memory prices are dropping significantly lately. (Desktops running 12GB of RAM is nothing impossible or overly expensive now). Please don't let this end up in ix86 vs x86_64 flamewar. Yes they are cases where x86 is the better choice (when memory and diskspace are limited, but that exactly is covered by "older hardware and netbooks") So please consider changing the default to x86_64.

My guess is Paolo went for something more generic as the wallpaper is still under development and we don't have a rule to use the same graphic, is the same metaphor (only for "Solar" we had exactly the same image).

The current choices do not always indicate future direction. The question is what do we want to push towards? It isn't clear to me that x86_64 has clear cut advantages over x86 for regular desktop users. I rather get FESCo to answer that.

Not exactly what I had in my head (in fact I was not sure what to do) but is not bad, is more "flashy" than the initial one. And as long as we don't abuse lens flares (i.e. not use them on *every* graphic), it should be OK. > https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/2/24/Deepsky-fedora11-countdown-banner_1c.png > https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/9/9a/Deepsky-fedora11-countdown-banner_1c.svg -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ From hibernater at sohu.com Wed Apr 8 09:54:27 2009 From: hibernater at sohu.com (hibernater at sohu.com) Date: Wed, 08 Apr 2009 09:54:27 GMT Subject: How to download documents?

If they want it, they know it. Most user don't know what they want they just want to install Fedora. It's our job to let them download the version that utilizes there hardware better (and on most modern systems that is x86_64). There is no reason to not use x86_64 on a system that supports it.

The more frequent media attention for pre-releases is likely to drive more general audiences to the pre-release download pages, and we should be prepared for that interaction. Currently the "get-prerelease" page is pretty much the equivalent of the old "get-fedora" page, only with the pre-release warning at the top. The redesign of the "get-fedora" page, on the other hand, is fairly successful, although I still feel like it's a little busy. That notwithstanding, what does the Websites team feel we could do with the "get-prerelease" page? Could/should we have it better match the way the "get-fedora" page currently works? -- Paul W.

Actually very little was done in the website besides the joomla infrastructure. Fedora is currently the only major distro without a updated and "living" website. There are active community websites for Debian, openSUSE and Ubuntu, AFAIK. I'm just started using Fedora recently but I'm a Linux user for about 4 years. I'm also an active GNOME translator. I think contributing with the website could be one of my ways to give back to Fedora. So, who could I contact about this? Is anyone still in charge of the website that I can propose my collaboration?

I just uploaded them, and the countdown banner should start showing up tomorrow. By the way, would it be possible to make an updated version of the 1 day banner? Right now, it says "1 days," and where it should be "1 day." The same might be true for the Italian one. I'm about to send the an email to fedora-trans-list about getting more translations for the countdown. Any idea who I can refer translators to if they need help work the graphics work and who they should send their translated SVGs to in order to be generated?

This is the proper place: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Meetings/Matrix I have updated it, and entered my info. I am not sure how to use the wiki tag above? how de we enter 'i can attend' data? I have searched the internets and our wiki?

Looking at the SVG, Paolo, I think it can be made more friendly for translations (sorry for not checking this earlier), something like putting all the text to be translated outside the canvas and use clones... is not a good idea to have the text to be translated twice, one time as normal text and another time as a halo and everything under a complex structure of groups.
