| herlo | themayor: yes, I'll be here in and out... | 22:04 |
| themayor | alright lets get started | 22:06 |
| themayor | hey rislam | 22:06 |
| moixs | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_F11_schedule | 22:06 |
| themayor | yup | 22:06 |
| themayor | im just gonna brief you guys on what ive been working on | 22:06 |
| themayor | working on the press kit | 22:06 |
| themayor | i have content | 22:06 |
| themayor | and a little bit of styling, but mo needs to take a look at it | 22:07 |
| themayor | i was supposed to meet her on monday in boston, but i didnt go because of some personal issues that came up | 22:07 |
| themayor | im meeting her next monday | 22:07 |
| moixs | ok | 22:07 |
| moixs | Did you get my press kits already? | 22:07 |
| themayor | i would like to have press kit finished, or at least the first real good beta by next week | 22:07 |
| themayor | ah yes | 22:07 |
| themayor | moixs: i did, they are awesome!!! | 22:07 |
| * herlo loves them too... | 22:08 | |
| themayor | i had my mom help me translate the text and i used portions of it in the larger thing | 22:08 |
| moixs | Cool :) | 22:08 |
| moixs | If you are finished with yours, I'd like to talk about them, there is a small problem | 22:08 |
| moixs | Last week I was waiting on the SVG exported versions of these kits | 22:09 |
| moixs | (they are in an Adobe CS4 InDesign format) | 22:09 |
| themayor | ok and? | 22:09 |
| moixs | So I finally received the SVG exports Sunday | 22:09 |
| moixs | and they are completely useless | 22:10 |
| moixs | The export breaks everything | 22:10 |
| moixs | So we have a couple of options now | 22:10 |
| moixs | 1) We ask someone from the Art team to redo them in Scribus | 22:10 |
| |<-- mizmo_ has left freenode (Read error: 113 (No route to host)) | 22:11 | |
| moixs | 2) We use InDesign for the F11 release, I just have to paste your text in them | 22:11 |
| moixs | I don't really see another alternative right now... | 22:11 |
| |<-- tibbs has left freenode ("Konversation terminated!") | 22:12 | |
| moixs | Any other suggestions? | 22:12 |
| themayor | we can put in a request to thew art team and see what they say first | 22:13 |
| moixs | My inDesign trial period expires in around 15 days, so we still have time, but it clearly sucks | 22:13 |
| themayor | if they say now, we can go ahead with indesign or something, right? | 22:13 |
| moixs | Can't you directly talk to Mo? | 22:13 |
| moixs | yes | 22:13 |
| themayor | i can but she will tell me put in a request to the art team | 22:13 |
| moixs | It's a matter of time, it's beginning to be short :) | 22:13 |
| themayor | yes | 22:14 |
| moixs | Oh, can you do that then? I'm not subscribed to their ML | 22:14 |
| themayor | ah you dont have to be, just send them an email to art@fp.o i think | 22:14 |
| moixs | I can provide the InDesign templates, one of them can maybe do something with them | 22:14 |
| moixs | Ok, I'll contact them tomorrow | 22:15 |
| moixs | Next point is the slogan...any news on that? | 22:15 |
| themayor | okay so slogan is not accepting any more submissions, paul needs to pick one | 22:16 |
| moixs | Is he aware of this task? :D | 22:16 |
| themayor | yeah, he was away all week last week | 22:16 |
| themayor | just got back, and they are in a meeting now i think | 22:16 |
| themayor | him, max and etc | 22:16 |
| moixs | Ok, so everything is fine | 22:17 |
| rislam | send Paul a reminder pls | 22:17 |
| moixs | ok, I'll do it tomorrow too | 22:18 |
| themayor | moixs: its alright i can send it | 22:18 |
| moixs | good | 22:18 |
| moixs | If nobody else is there, we are pretty much done with the tasks from the list | 22:18 |
| themayor | otherwise, i am also going to be recording alot of audio for podcasts when i am in westford | 22:19 |
| moixs | Ah yes, this is great. | 22:19 |
| -->| Sonar_Guy (n=Who@fedora/sonarguy) has joined #fedora-meeting | 22:20 | |
| themayor | yup im going to try and take care of alot of that type of related stuff next week | 22:20 |
| themayor | coming meeting next week we should have alot of progress | 22:20 |
| moixs | As I understand, we should have the Preview Release by next week so we can advance on various fronts. | 22:21 |
| themayor | also, the pre-preview release meeting is this week | 22:21 |
