Kadischi Weekly Report : 16 January 2005
Written by Chitlesh Goorah on 2006-01-15
This is the first Kadischi Weekly Report. After one week, when Thijs Hulshof called for developers to work with the Kadischi Project, some contributors popped in.
Contributors
- Mikael Jacobsson (Swedish translation)
- Luya Tshimbalanga (French translation)
- JasperHartline (Kadischi research and testing)
- and I, Chitlesh Goorah (wiki maintainer and documentation.)
Objective
Our objective is to give life to the Kadischi Project and finally get a maintainer to push the gears to 100%. With the participation of Patrick Barnes, we have established some kind of hierarchy in the www.fedoraproject.org wiki.
Hierarchy in the Wiki
- WIKI/Kadischi
- Download
- news
- Screenshots
- LiveCD
- BugReporting
- Development
- Meetings
- Contributors
- Schedule
- Documentation
- FAQ
- Translations
- French
- Swedish
Patrick Barnes pointed out that WIKI/DerivedDistributions/LiveCDs isn't really related to Kadischi, and should be left as it is.
Progress
- Jan, 10 2006
- Anyone would like commit access to kadischi CVS, and has a patch that they're already trying to get in, e-mail Elliot Lee and we'll work on getting commit access for more of the contributors.
- Jan, 11 2006
- A category "CategoryKadischi" was created in the WIKI. J.Hartline currently have two patches that will patch clean against anaconda-10.91.0 (anaconda.patch and flags.py.patch).
- Jan, 12 2006
- Greg DeKoenigsberg said that the Kadischi Project isn't mature enough to be part of the Official Fedora Projects such Extras, Marketing... If a strong lead wants to step up and can:
- Run the meeting;
- Maintain the wiki;
- Do some coding;
- Jan, 13 2006
- J.Hartline have submitted these to Jeremy Klatz. Meanwhile, I (Chitlesh Goorah) am maintaining the WIKI/Kadischi. The idea is to have a particular graphical layout for Kadischi Project in the WIKI. We have a good looking .spec file that builds kadischi from CVS. As time progresses, someone will definitely be interested in this Kadischi and a Fedora Core Official LiveCD. Elliot Lee answered J.Hartline's long awaited answer "Kadischi is just a random word I made up for Darko that included the string 'disc'." Luya Tshimbalanga helped for translating Kadischi wiki pages to French.
- Jan, 14 2006
- J.Hartline and Chitlesh Goorah worked on the Kadishi/FAQ. MikaelJacobsson helped for translating Kadischi/Documentation to swedish.
Conclusion
The Kadischi Contributors are looking forward to a
- OOo Impress presentation about Kadischi once the WIKI/Kadischi pages. Hence, Fedora Ambassadors can spread the word.
- weekly meetings
- russian translation for the Kadischi Documentation.
The Kadischi Project is still without a permanent maintainer. Meanwhile I, Chitlesh Goorah, am coordinating the project with the help of other contributors.
