Scholarships for open source contributors
,----[ Quote ]
| The Fedora Scholarship program, sponsored
| by Red Hat, recognizes one high school
| senior per year for contributions to the
| Fedora Project and free software/content
| in general. With a selection process that
| looks at the student's contributions to
| Fedora and other free software projects
| and uses members of the Fedora community
| as references, it's a little different
| from most scholarships you might be used
| to seeing. In addition to $2,000 USD for
| each of 4 years of an undergraduate
| education in any field of the recipient's
| choice, the scholarship includes 4 years
| of annual all-expenses-paid trips to the
| nearest FUDCon, the Fedora community's
| main gathering of contributors, which
| happens once per year in different parts
| of the world.

Going Paranoid on Fedora 13
,----[ Quote ]
| A Paranoid, or 5-star, security rating is
| the highest physical security rating that
| you can achieve on your computer. It
| entails enabling a set of OS-dependent and
| OS-independent features.
|
| But why would anyone want to achieve such
| a high physical security rating on Fedora
| or any other distribution? Strict control
| of who can access your data if your
| computer falls into the wrong hands,
| thatâs why. The point is, if your computer
| is stolen, or seized by agents of the
| state, you do not want to make it easy for
| them to access your data. In fact, you
| want to make it impossible for them to
| access your data.

Riding the Rocket: A CEOâs Look at Fedora 13 âGoddardâ
,----[ Quote ]
| I also like the more polished desktop look
| and feel. Menus are simpler and more
| consistent thanks to the work of the Fedora
| Desktop team. The Fedora Design team has also
| been hard at work in making the icons in the
| default installation match a single look and
| feel. Iâm looking forward to trying out other
| desktop features in Fedora 13 including its
| solutions for scanning, microblogging and
| photo management. (Heading on vacation soon,
| and plan to take a lot of pics!) Iâm able to
| rely on Fedora to just work out of the box
| more than ever before.

| The installation was quick and painless, and
| the subsequent reboot was extremely fast and
| clean -- from POST screen to login screen
| within 10 seconds.
