Hi Sascha, mates, -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [opensuse-marketing] Weekly News Proofreadingsession for Issue 206 From: Sascha Manns <Sascha.Manns@open-slx.de> To: helios_reds@gmx.net, news@opensuse.org, opensuse-marketing@opensuse.org Date: Sat Dec 17 2011 21:21:11 GMT+0900 (JST)
As you know we're trying to make the profreading session more open. So everyone can read it and share his thoughts,
This week, what concerns me are followings: =Announcements= 1. I'd suggest you to put 'openSUSE Board Election 2011 results' on the top of this corner, because it's the hottest topic of this week. ;-) 2. The article 'FOSDEM12 Cross-Distribution Devroom: (Last) Call for Participation' http://news.opensuse.org/2011/12/16/fosdem12-cross-distribution-devroom-last... can/should be included in this corner. =New/Updated Applications @ openSUSE= * Plasma Active Two Released Is this really an '@ openSUSE' article? As far as I can see, it's a release announcement from *upstream* and there's no pointer to openSUSE repository for Plasma Active in this article. So, I think 'On the Web/Announcements' may be the better place, and, 'site name/authors name' should be added like; KDE.NEWS/Carl Symons: Plasma Active Two Released ... That's all I could find for this issue. Have a nice weekend!

Why is draft there? Once upon a time it was in openSUSE wiki, so editing was possible in place for anyone with Novell account. Right now, one has to: 1) read, 2) copy-paste to email that will goof up line length, so back copy to original will mean manual work to fix lines. 3) edit 4) send email
What is to do?
It could be better to have source in some Etherpad or public or semi-public Google document: * it has history (timeline) so one can revert unwanted changes, * it allows concurent exiting (unlike wiki), * each editor is marked with color, so attribution is kind of easy -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+owner@opensuse.org

Before that we made a more little Proofreading Session with news@o.o. But after we're sending to marketing too, and the Markting List doesn't accept attachements, i placed the Draft there.

Right now, one has to: 1) read, 2) copy-paste to email that will goof up line length, so back copy to original will mean manual work to fix lines. 3) edit 4) send email Adding new things after the Proofreading Mail is very easy. Just place your Idea/Proposal there: https://osweeklynews.publishwith.me/1
If you want to read the code just do a: svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/osweeklynews/code/trunk osweeklynews-code If you want to be a regular editor, just create a Sourceforge User and mail the Username to us. Then you can use a customized svn checkout with write access.

It could be better to have source in some Etherpad or public or semi-public Google document: * it has history (timeline) so one can revert unwanted changes, Through using SVN we already have a history with revert Function.
* each editor is marked with color, so attribution is kind of easy I'm using Oxygen-XML Editor, other using Serna or other XML Editors. So it is very easy to contribute. A big plus for using Docbook is that we can create multiple Outputformats (like HTML, PDF and EBook) with just one Source.
Have a nice Weekend... Sascha -- Sincerly yours Sascha Manns Community &Support Agent open-slx GmbH http://www.open-slx.de (Business) http://saigkill.homelinux.net (Private) This mail is written with Balsam Professional 12.1
