Re: Shotwell article

[Sylvia Sánchez]

I read the article. It should be signed by you, Justin, not me.
Nothing survived from what I wrote.
Besides that, looks fine.



Cheers,
Sylvia.

Hi Sylvia,

Nice, this will make a great article for next week! I'm looking back at
the meeting minutes now, and I'm seeing that we forgot to actually come
up with a firm schedule other than the GPG article on Monday. I think
this might be good to ship on Wednesday morning if we can get a banner
for it on Monday or Tuesday.

I just finished making a pass of edits. I made a few minor changes to
formatting with the inclusion of headers and adding information about
installing Shotwell for users who might not have it.

I also swapped out the screenshots with new ones because they had a lot
of your desktop background and customizations in the picture. It's cool
to see all that can be done with Fedora, but it might also be confusing
for readers who are using the default desktop when they see that the
screenshots look different from what they see.

It's now saved in "pending review" status and content should be ready to
go for next week!

Shotwell article

[Sylvia Sánchez]

Hi all!
According to myself, this article only needs a banner and it's ready
to go.  But I'd like to hear your thoughts.  So here is the link to
preview:

Thanks and cheers,
Sylvia

Perfect! I'm finishing the banner. I'll send an email once I've got it done.

Sounds great, just fire back at the list once you're done and we'll 
begin getting it ready for publishing. :)

I'm doing so and I find Gthumb and Gwenview as good alternatives. Photos is
unusable. F-Spot isn't available in Fedora (any reasons…?).
So I'll write a bit about their features and differences with Shotwell and
between them.
Then a couple of screenshots and it's done.

Okay, thanks for the clarification. Seeing as how Charles has a lot 
going on right now, that would be awesome if you could work on this 
article too. I'm not as familiar with these programs so it would be 
fantastic if you did some research on good alternatives. :)

I started adding text to the article. I think between Sunday and Monday it
will be ready.

OK. Then I'm installing some programmes today and let's see what I find.
Flory: I said about Digikam exactly the opposite. I said Digikam is
way more complicated and featured than Shotwell. They aren't
exchangeable.

If you're OK, I can research on possible Shotwell substitutes and
finish the article with that information.
Anyway, I must do that investigation, I'm a Shotwell fan so I need to
find a good substitute ASAP.

While I would like to put the effort in on finishing the article I want
to work on the GPG series and HDYF more. With the fact I just took on
mentoring a robotics team my time is also a bit short right now.

[Magazine] Discussion about Shotwell article

[Justin W. Flory]

Hello all,

In the last ten minutes of the Magazine meeting today, we discussed the 
status of the Shotwell article currently sitting in the Drafts category. 
I think the last time we left off with it, its purpose and future were a 
bit unclear. Now, we know some things to be true.



1) Shotwell is definitely leaving Fedora in the near future as it 
is no longer being maintained.


2) Its future replacement, GNOME Photos, is not ready and likely 
will not be ready even for Fedora 24 (mentioning it now isn't worth it).


3) This article would be better focused on writing and introducing 
some alternative software to Shotwell.



With all of these things in mind, it would be nice to convert this 
article to an introduction in one of the alternative programs available 
in Fedora. Sylvia (lailah / Kohane) pointed out one being Digikam, and 
someone else mentioned Gthumb as a possibility.


Since this was originally Charles's article, we were hoping he could 
clarify about what he wants to write about or if this is an article he 
still wants to follow through with. @Charles, if you are no longer 
interested in writing this, we can set it up and leave it the Holding 
Pen as a possible article that someone could write in the future either 
when they have free time or maybe as low-hanging fruit for someone 
interested in writing about Fedora software.


Looking forward to seeing what we decide to do with this one!
