Rock-solid Fedora 10 brings salvation to Ubuntu weary
,----[ Quote ]
| Once installed, we booted into GNOME where, as always, Fedora opts for a more
| minimal package collection than most other distros. We prefer it this way
| since a fresh Ubuntu install generally requires about 20 minutes of package
| deleting before we feel at home. With Fedora's approach you can simply head
| to the RPMs and install what you'd like.

Fedora 10 debuts with nips, tucks
,----[ Quote ]
| One more thing of note. A year ago, the Fedora Project made it easier for
| people to join the project and participate, moving from a largely Red
| Hat-controlled body of around 1,900 people to what has become a 17,000-strong
| body of contributors to the Fedora cause.

Fedora 10 (Cambridge) coming soon - and a release party to boot!
,----[ Quote ]
| And I am already running Fedora 10. It’s stable, powerful and most of all,
| built from free software! Also, I’m in charge of creating the Media for
| North America this release. We’ve already pre-purchased x86 live media and
| plan to produce similar amounts of x86_64 live CDs as well as both x86 and
| x86_64 install DVDs. It’s exciting because they should be to my house by
| early to mid-December! Distribution plans are commencing as well, so keep
| your ear to the ground.

Red Hat Fedora Claims It's the Leader in Linux

| Red Hat's Fedora community Linux distribution has now tallied its user base,
| and it's a number that on the surface would make it the largest installed
| base of any Linux distribution, with at least 9.5 million users and possibly
| as many as 10.5 million.

Fedora 11 Release Schedule, Along With Five Features
,----[ Quote ]
| Fedora 10 isn't even being released until next week, but five features have
| already been approved for Fedora 11 and a release schedule has been put in
| motion. FESCo, or the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee, convened
| yesterday and approved the Fedora 11 release schedule (though it's likely to

| features.
|
| The five features that are marked to be introduced in Fedora 11 include
| DeviceKit integration, improved volume controls, Windows cross-compiler
| support, Presto plug-in integration, and simple support for setting up a

Upcoming Fedora 10 Release Has Style and Substance
,----[ Quote ]
| These are good times for Linux users. Ubuntu's 8.10 release recently went
| live, Fedora's 10 release is coming up in mere weeks, and openSUSE will
| finalize its 11.1 offering in December. Even if none of these distributions
| are your first choice for daily use, they are popular and are frequently
| worth checking out on liveCD, even if you plan to continue using your current
| distribution.

Fedora 10 Prepares For Development Freeze
,----[ Quote ]
| The release date for Fedora 10 (codenamed Cambridge) is less than one month
| away and as a result this Red Hat distribution will go into a development
| freeze beginning Tuesday. The Fedora 10 Beta occurred in late September, but
| over the course of the past month there have been three snapshot releases. In
| the third and final snapshot that was released this past week there are new
| improvements to this popular Linux distribution along with a new desktop
| background and better integrated version of Plymouth to greet its users. We
| have also recorded a new video showing the enhanced start-up process via
| kernel-based mode-setting.

Omega 10 Desktop Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| The Red Hat community engineer behind the Fedora Games and Fedora Xfce media
| spins, Rahul Sundaram, had announced the release of Omega 10 Beta this past
| weekend. Omega is a desktop/mobile Linux distribution that is based upon
| Fedora but includes packages from the Livna RPM repository. The Omega 10 Beta
| release is roughly equivalent to the Fedora 10 Beta to be released tomorrow,
| but integrates multimedia support not found in Fedora along with delivering
| other added functionality.
