Mageia on facebook ?

[nizar07]

I've done a search on facebook, but not find. Is there any official Mageia group on facebook ? , I think is very important to get an info from social network sites.

No Facebook,

Huh? Of course there is a Facebook group! http://www.facebook.com/Mageia
It was one of the first things done last year.
Haven't you seen the F icon on the main Mageia page, or the header of the blog pages?

[isadora]

Missed that as well, so sorry wobo and nizar07, i owe you a pizza sometime.

Maybe these icons should be placed at the forum as well???

thank you, I do not see it. It turns out the F icon at the header pages

Why?

[isadora]

Why not????
People are coming here for information in the first place, and can also find other directions for information towards Mageia that way.

[wobo]

Hmm, I never saw the forums as a place where you go for news and/or general information - this is what all the other pages (main, blog, wiki, whatever...) are for, which show the Facebook icon. You can reach all those informational places via the nav bar on the top of the forums. Forums are places for discussion and support. Oh, also for community building

Yet another F icon and all the others following suite would not bother me (as long as they are small enough), I just could not think of a reason

[isadora]

Hmm alright, maybe a question of tradition in different places.
But many forums in my country have pointers to their social networks, most of them on the forums' frontpage.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

[wobo]

We could place a line of these icons (facebook, g+ and twitter) in the same line as the global nav bar, align=right.

That would be nice. Anyone know when maat will be back?

[wobo]

We will have to insert a line into the overall_header template, right after (or as extension of) the line which displays the nav bar. I'd prefer a common display for all, so may be rda would be the right person to generate the line for all. Then all it needs is an admin to do it in the forum ACP. (I can do it for the German forum).

[Germ]

OK. I'll shoot some PMs.

He posted that on forums-discuss. IIRC he should be available at the beginning of next week.

Quick hello from far away in the mountains...

(thanks Germ)

Seems a good idea to add the possibility to relay about posts on social networks...

Cya all next week

[wobo]

I'll check for a proper code line to insert in overall_header and come back here.
Anybody knows if Romain is away for les vacances as well?

maat, be careful with mountain lions!
