Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

The Fedora Project has released the first test release of Fedora 8. Here the full announcement:

Fedora 8 Test one has been loosed upon the world today. Included in this release is a "Fedora" installable 'choose your own adventure' style set of isos and trees for i386, x86_64, and ppc(64). Also included are Live images of both the Fedora Desktop and the Fedora KDE desktop. These are available for both i686 and x86_64 (x86_64 is DVD size only). Remember these can be used on USB media via the livecd-iso-to-disk utility available in the livecd-tools package.

Fedora Core 5 Retirement

Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Fedora Core 5 has been discontinued:

As of Monday, July 2nd 2007, Fedora Core 5 has gone into retirement. No further updates will be issued for FC5 or FE5 as we refocus our developer attention to development of F8 and maintenance of our most recent stable Fedora 7.

The Fedora Project now runs on a N+2 + 1 month support schedule. This means the supported lifetime of FC5 was scheduled to end one month after the release of F7. FC5 was supported from March 20th 2006 through July 2nd 2007, or a good ~15.5 months.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/8/Schedule
By the current Fedora 8 development schedule, the supported lifetime of FC6 is to continue to a minimum of early December 2007.

Fedora Core 5 EOL on 2007-06-29

Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

From the fedora mailinglist:

As many of you are aware, our policy on the lifecycles of Fedora releases is:

"Fedora X will be maintained until about one month after Fedora X+2"

Fedora 7 was released on May 31st. Fedora Core 5 will reach its End of Life on Friday June 29th.

This was previously mentioned on fedora-announce-list on May 3rd, but is worth repeating.

Thank you,
Max

ATrpms for Fedora 7

Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

ATrpms is officially launching Fedora 7 support for i386, x86_64 and ppc.

http://ATrpms.net/dist/f7/

o The packages will be available at `date -d "Thu May 31 14:00 UTC"', which is Fedora's release. I usually wait for the official release announcement of Fedora to announce ATrpms' support, but due to LinuxTag activities I'll be afk for about 24h.

Fedora 7 (Moonshine)

Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Fedora 7 has been released:

Howdy, cousins! Welcome to our little Fedora hollow, where we've brewed up some mighty, mighty Fedora 7 Moonshine for your enjoyment. Here, I'll help you pour that ... and some for me ... *cough, cough* Smoooooth ... sure does taste good. It's been sitting here in the jug for almost a whole month now! Go ahead and help yourself to some more:

Fedora Project Web gets a face lift

Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

The Fedora Project website has gotten a face lift:

http://fedoraproject.org/

Prior to today that site went straight to the wiki, which is largely developer content with good (but somewhat hard to find) docs. Now we're expanding on fedoraproject.org and adding some more user-centric content like that found at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/

The websites team has been hard at work at this for a while and we're all excited to release it today.

Help get the word out and digg:

Fedora 7 -- what, when, and why

Fedora Linux 9404 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

With the Red Hat Summit kicking off, I'd like to take a few minutes to discuss some of the recent happenings in the Fedora Project, particularly around Fedora 7. This email is being sent both to public Fedora mailing lists, and to Red Hat mailing lists, so that folks in both the external and internal Fedora communities can have a chance to read it, and people can all sort of consistently spread the same message about Fedora.

FEDORA 7

The next version of Fedora will be released on May 24th. It will be called "Fedora 7" -- not "Fedora Core 7". It's the most ambitious release of Fedora that we've undertaken, and I hope that when we look back at Fedora 7 one or two years down the road, the decisions that we made for this release will have proven to be as impactful as anything we've done in the Fedora space since the start of the Fedora Project.
