Purpose

It's been a while since the Fedora Docs Project has met face-to-face and worked on projects together. There are many new faces and lots of questions. Now might be a good time to meet and work on our goals before Fedora 21.

Goals

• Make sure everyone is comfortable with using Publican 3.x and the new build system for publishing.
• Work on updating any old information in our guides and making sure the recent onslaught of new features haven't been missed.
• Work on training materials for new contributors.

The Plan

Because it's expensive to fly people over the ocean we'll have two FADs simultaneously linked by video and data feeds. The two sites will be Brno, CZ and Raleigh, NC.

Raleigh

Meeting Space

I'm currently working on obtaining meeting space and other logistical pieces. --Sparks (talk) 16:59, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
