=== kdebindings -> PyKDE4 split ===


=== Fedora Websites in need of development help ===
[[RexDieter|Rex Dieter]] announces on fedora-devel-announce[1],


[[MaxSpevack|Max Spevack]] writes on fedora-devel-announce[1],
"kdebindings currently includes bindings for many languages, including python, ruby, etc, and currently bundled all together into a single monolithic package. The KDE SIG will be working to split these out (where it makes sense). The first one is python, which has been split into it's own PyKDE4 package (should land in the next rawhide iteration)."


"The Fedora Websites team is actively looking for some development help on our build scripts -- this is the code that takes templates and turns it into HTML.
This split will propogate back to F-9 when kde-4.1 is released (late July-ish)


It's critical for people who want to create local mockups of new designs, and also for pushing our web code into test environments and ultimately into production."

=== Fedora 7 End of Life ===
 
[[BillNottingham|Bill Nottingham]] announces on fedora-devel-announce[1],
 
"This is a reminder that F7 goes [[LifeCycle/EOL|EOL]] on 2008-06-13. If you have any critical updates lingering in testing, you may want to have them moved final before then."
