The list

If the task has more than one action that cannot be listed here, make a new wiki page for it and link to it from this list.

Task Assignee(s) Due Date Status
Braindump thoughts on what needs to be improved to the wiki, as specific as possible. This should take 15-25 min at most. markg85 2009-06-12 Done. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Brainstorms
Take 15 minutes, trying to remember as much of the conversation you and spevack had about how other distros do it (better or worse or differently compared to fedora), and writing that down on the wiki (it doesn't need to be coherent or even good, but it should exist so we have something to work with) markg85 2009-06-12 Done. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Brainstorms
Gather a collection of pointers to as many design drafts and conversations about website stuff as possible, and link them all to the websites team wiki page, so we start getting a sense of who's talking where mchua 2009-06-12 Done. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Brainstorms
Try out F11 from a new Fedora user's perspective. Generate commentary on that experience and the supporting website materials accessed during that process. mchua, markg85, anyone else who wants to join 2009-06-19 Just started.
Usability research jonrob Open-ended Needs a status update, should check in. Old status: usability testing and discussion at FUDCon Brno; summarize Boston + Brno results and then act on them; screencasts of people doing usability testing would be nice (quaid)
CMS solution for Fedora Project websites quaid ? waiting on docs moving to zikula before it is considered for fp.o
Fedora Community mizmo 2009-06-10 Deploying June 10!
Fixing MediaWiki redirect to use a 302 and leave a redirection notice on the target page so the original page can be returned to. ianweller Not set Researching with MW, considering a patch to submit upstream if we get our method correct. Infrastructure ticket
Infrastructure site map ricky Not set Need to get a list of websites/lists they run. Ricky is aware of this task (2009-06-11).
Infrastructure release process ricky Not set we have a system that works pretty cleanly for this now, so this is hopefully ready.
spins.fedoraproject.org ? ? Some vague list of things that would be nice ot have for this site, but nobody willing to do the work for it. List, with old assignees: Kanarip to look for help with wireframe mockups for the site; he set a deadline of 13 Oct to get back with wireframes; mizmo plans to use the templates for MyFedora in some way; working on putting up a basic build server in the publictest space (ricky, kanarip, mmcgrath). This is in reference to Websites/Spins.
get-fedora ricky ? Done (but as this is an ongoing project, a new task should be created for the next milestone.) This is part of the 'act on them' from the usability testing task above.

We are building around [1]. Work will be posted to our test git repository, [2] which is pushed to our test web site every 10 minutes, [3]. ( Target date allows 2 weeks for string translation prior to F10 launch ).

CSS kitchen sink mizmo None After My Fedora chrome is done, align current stylesheets in a layered model, then document how it all interacts as "The Way of Things". Was waiting on f-comm to be released, but that happens June 10.
Common look and feel CraigThomas Review weekly Next up on the hit list is docs.fedoraproject.org - progress is being followed on list - we should also wait to see if we need a redesign before hitting this much.
Wiki Content Sponsorship - Plugin KarstenWade (quaid) Review weekly Look for a plugin to automate page sponsorship management in MW. We actually don't know if this is still needed (2009-06-10) or if docs has found a workaround. Karsten, status?
Licenses JonathanRoberts Review next week Speak with TomCallaway about current status and Board's recommendation
Group join interstitial pages in FAS ricky ASAP People need to see/read a page that tells them what to do before requesting various FAS group accesses. One early action is to remove the redundant Apply for a new Group link. Ricky working on getting this into FAS.
Page Requests anybody ASAP Page requests at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/PageRequests

Old Stuff?

We are scared of being stale, so we move anything that isn't being actively worked on from above to this list. It is not yet a dead list; think of it more as batter's box, where a task waits for its chance at being attended to. Another analogy is the side-burner; it's not put entirely on the back of the stove and turned off, it is more set on the side burners and turned to simmer.
