=== Keeping the History Alive ===
=== Font survey ===


A few years ago, when the Fedora "Infinity Bubble" logo was created, it was accompanied by an insightful set of slides, describing the process which led to its creation. As the original page hosting the slides closed some months ago this particular piece of history was lost. Lost, that is, until now when [[MairinDuffy|Máirín Duffy]] posted[1] on @fedora-art the results of her recovery work "I took some time to grab what I could from archive.org and reconstruct it here: [2]"
[[NicolasMailhot|Nicolas Mailhot]] wrote[1] to @fedora-fonts about a survey[2] "asking our users to participate in the online font surveys out there on Fedora 10 release". He heels this is important as "this way we may limit the number of web sites that only work with Arial or Times New Roman, and make more web designers aware of the fonts actually available on free systems."

=== Feedback on the Fedora 10 themes ===
 
With the final release for Fedora 10 closing, more and more previews are published on the web and in most of them the artwork is praised. This week [[JaymeAyres|Jayme Ayres]] linked[1] to yet another such praising review "I was giving a look at the blog Rodrigo Menezes [2] and saw on the analysis done by 10 Fedora dual blog JupiterBroadcasting [3] (who particularly did not know), said some puerility on Fedora, but praised highly the work of Artwork and then I'd like to share with you. Congratulations to all!"

Font survey

Nicolas Mailhot wrote[1] to @fedora-fonts about a survey[2] "asking our users to participate in the online font surveys out there on Fedora 10 release". He heels this is important as "this way we may limit the number of web sites that only work with Arial or Times New Roman, and make more web designers aware of the fonts actually available on free systems."
