proposal for new "FOSCo" group to mirror FESCo
by Matthew Miller
I posted individual messages to a number of other mailing lists, but
this one I'm just cross-posting to the three lists for the product
working groups. We've floated a proposal to have a new "Fedora Outreach
Steering Committee", which would replace FAmSCo — so no net new
governance groups added, following Mitr's ban on such things :).
The idea is to help coordinate marketing, support, and evangelism like
we do the engineering side of things. I'm posting this on _these_
lists, because I think that if we do go this route, we should have
FOSCo WG liaisons just like the FESCo liaison.

Branding concerns about workstation
by Máirín Duffy
Hi folks,
Christian and I talked about some of the points brought up in this
thread this morning and we agreed that a good way forward would be to
come up with:
(1) A written policy on how we brand Fedora, and also
(2) A documented process that can be followed when there's a request to
change that policy.
I'm going to go back through this thread (and some of the other related
ones that have popped up over time, this seems to come up cyclically
lately) and talk to some of the stakeholders involved (including Matthew
from the Fedora POV, one of the RHEL product managers from the RHEL POV
since our branding ability affects RHEL, Jakub who is one of the GNOME
shell designers) to list out all of the goals / needs we have and
various possibilities to address them that won't compromise the design
but also achieve the goals we have (if that's possible :) Let's be
optimistic and assume it is.)
I am going to reach out to some of our Red Hat corporate branding folks
too since a lot of them have deep experience on this sort of problem
space not just from RH's perspective but from their work at other
companies and see if I can't find someone to advise us from that sort of
third-person / objective POV as well - maybe they might have some good
insight or solution we haven't considered.
I have a few other things to tie up today but I will have a rough draft
at a problem statement written up this week and will start some other
documentation too (e.g. going through the thread and pulling out
potential suggested solutions, etc.) I will keep this list posted and
keep things open so anybody can have the opportunity to suggest ideas /
provide feedback / etc.

[Fwd: [Test-Announce] Fedora 21 Beta Release Candidate 1 (RC1) Available Now!]
by Adam Williamson
It'd be great if folks could help out with the Beta RC1 testing. The
cloud images seem to be busted but everything else is available for
testing, and Dennis will look into the Cloud issues tomorrow. In the
meantime if people can help get the ARM and Workstation/KDE tests run
it'd be a big help.
You can use my silly relval tool -
https://www.happyassassin.net/wikitcms/ - as an alternative to editing
the wiki pages to report results, if you like. Set up the repo, install
relval, and run 'relval report-results --username=(fasname)'. You might
find it a bit easier/more efficient than editing the pages.

workstation marketing - hardware
by Máirín Duffy
Hi,
Quick question from the website dept. here -
We are thinking about having a nice high-quality photo of a laptop to
show the workstation desktop screenshot on for the website.
Do we have any preferences as to what model laptop we might want to
feature? If we did this, would we have to blur out / debrand the system?
Does anyone have thoughts on this kind of thing?
Thanks,

systemd-networkd and network management plans
by Rahul Sundaram
Hi
For a long time, NetworkManager handled only wifi and simpler connection
needs and although it now has support for bridging, bonding etc, it seems
not integrated with GNOME very much.
Meanwhile, systemd-networkd handles a lot more of that but doesn't handle
wifi (yet?) and I am not sure what the plans are between NM and
systemd-networkd to avoid code duplication.
Do we still ship the older network scripts in Fedora workstation? What are
the plans to integrate systemd-networkd if any? What is the future of NM?

Meeting topics for tomorrow?
by Josh Boyer
Hi All,
I've been a bit busy the past week and haven't had a chance to track
down issues for the Workstation WG meeting tomorrow. Aside from
filling the vacant seat, what topics would people like to discuss?
