=== Brainstorming for Goddard ===
=== Goddard Ahead ===


With the release code name for Fedora 13 announced as Goddard, [[User:luya|Luya Tshimbalanga]] started on @design-team a brainstorming<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2009-December/001564.html</ref> about its theming "With some research, theme will be based on these following categories: Rockets (propulsion, spacecraft); Space (based on Goddard Flight Center website); Astrodynamics" and [[User:nicubunu|Nicu Buculei]] followed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2009-December/001565.html</ref> on the rocketry approach "I think rocketry is quite obvious: stars, space flight, rocket schematics. Depending on the direction we will take with the distro in the near future, I think a concept like 'fedora: for your inner rocket scientist' or 'fedora: is not rocket science' would be fit (my *strong* preference would be for the former)."
[[User:luya|Luya Tshimbalanga]] created<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2009-December/001571.html</ref> the wiki page<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F13_Artwork</ref> to hold the development for the Fedora 13 graphics "Feel free to submit with favorite media (sketchs, illustration, photos collage as a long it complies to Fedora licensing guideline)". [[User:nicubunu|Nicu Buculei]] invited<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2009-December/001572.html</ref> everyone to contribute "Now is the time for everyone to start posting sketches and concepts" and [[User:duffy|Máirín Duffy]] proposed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/design-team/2009-December/001573.html</ref> "I was thinking it might be a good idea to hold a hackfest where we could get together and brainstorm some ideas and get inspired."

Goddard Ahead

Luya Tshimbalanga created[1] the wiki page[2] to hold the development for the Fedora 13 graphics "Feel free to submit with favorite media (sketchs, illustration, photos collage as a long it complies to Fedora licensing guideline)". Nicu Buculei invited[3] everyone to contribute "Now is the time for everyone to start posting sketches and concepts" and Máirín Duffy proposed[4] "I was thinking it might be a good idea to hold a hackfest where we could get together and brainstorm some ideas and get inspired."

Improving the Fedora Community Website

Máirín Duffy posted[1] some usability observation from the user interaction with the Fedora Community website during the Toronto FUDCon "there was definitely a lot of confusion shown through the tests - and we weren't really 100% happy with it to start" along with a couple of improvement mockups and asked for feedback "On the FUDbus back home I started trying some of her ideas -on the left, the nav bar could slideback and slide out on demand, and I tried making the right navbar look more 'navigation-y' rather than like it is little ads or something not relevant to the content."
