Rawhide, the developer version of Fedora, is moving on to Fedora 10 in preparation of the Fedora 9 release

"In preparation of the Fedora 9 release tomorrow, we've flipped the configuration bit that will allow "rawhide" to be composed from Fedora 10 content tomorrow. This will likely fail in spectacular ways due to all the pent up builds so it should be interesting.

Those of you that have installed rawhide starting from Fedora 9 Preview or later, or have updated yourself to rawhide at any point post Preview, your default yum configuration will have you set for staying on Fedora 9. If you've modified your config files you may not have picked up this change and will want to verify what repos are enabled before you get hit with a lot of Fedora 10 packages.

The updates repos for Fedora 9 are currently empty, but I'm working on an updates push that will populate the updates and updates-testing with some 0-day updates that have been prepared. Theoretically these updates will hit mirrors sometime tonight.

Keep all body parts inside the cart at all times. Buckle up and enjoy the ride!

Tomboy 0.11.0 has been released

"Packagers take note: we've rewritten our printing code to use Gtk.Print, so we've added a mono-cairo dependency and dropped our libgnomeprint* dependencies. Printing is missing a few features right now, but you can expect it will be ready before the final 0.12.0 release (sooner if somebody sends a patch!).

Tomboy is a simple personal note-taking application designed to be unobtrusive and friendly, while supporting inter-note-links similar to a WikiWikiWeb to help you organize your notes and ideas. It can run either as a GNOME panel applet or a notification tray icon."

>> Tomboy 0.11.0 Released

PySwfdec 0.6.6 has been released

"I am pleased to announce version 0.6.6 of the Python bindings for PySwfdec.

The bindings are updated with the new Swfdec API 0.6.6

Blurb:
=====
Swfdec is the library for decoding and rendering Flash animations. It is still in heavy development. The intended audience are developers or people using it for pretested Flash animations (think embedded here). If you use it on unknown content, expect it to have issues and don't be surprised if it crashes. If you encounter such a crash however, make sure to file a bug immediately.

PySwfdec is a wrapper which exposes the Swfdec API to the python world. It is fairly complete; most of the API are covered.

The documentation is a work in progress, needs quite a lot of work in order to cover 100% of the API, anyway help will be greatly appreciated.

Like the GTK+ library, PyGTK and Swfdec itself PySwfdec is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications."
