We want to generate interest in Project Hummingbird amongst the Fedora Community during Red Hat Summit. This article covers the background on Project Hummingbird and how community members can get involved.
Hummingbird is not really FOSS is it? If not, maybe https://opensource.net/ would be a better venue and/or it could be promoted on Fedoraâs social media channels (Facebook, etc.).
Project Hummingbird is completely open source and based on Fedora. Weâre working with the Fedora council to introduce this into the Fedora ecosystem.
Following up on this; the article is uploaded and awaiting review. Note that Iâd like to be in touch about the timing of the article being published.
It looks like the cover image needs to be scaled to 1890x800. Also, we usually overlay the title text on the cover image to be sure the title is displayed prominently in various feed readers.
You can request a specific date for publication, if you have a preference?
In the Fedora ecosystem, we usually donât append âLinuxâ to all the titles. Is âFedora Hummingbird Linuxâ the official name of the project? I would have expected that to be âFedora Hummingbirdâ. âFedora Linuxâ is used to refer to all of the Fedora Editions/Spins/Labs/Containers collectively.
Members of the Fedora community contributed the bootable containers work that underpins Fedora Hummingbird Linux, and today, those members are continuing this work as part of Hummingbird.
That might be a little bit of a run-on sentence. I would suggest:
Members of the Fedora community contributed the bootable containers work that underpins Fedora Hummingbird Linux. Now those members are continuing the work as part of Hummingbird.
I donât think it is great, but Iâm not sure if itâs possible to do much better with that image. Maybe if you moved the blue background to a separate layer, then lightened all the birds, then you would have a consistently light background on which a black text would stand out?
Also, Iâm still not sure about âFedora Hummingbird Linuxâ. I saw that it was just referred to as âFedora Hummingbirdâ in one place in the text. I think we should use just âFedora Hummingbirdâ everywhere consistently, including in the title. Also, where possible, we should spell out the abbreviations (i.e. OS â operating system).
