Announcements

In this section, we cover announcements from the Fedora Project^[1] ^[2] ^[3].

Contributing Writer: Max Spevack

Fedora 11 (Leonidas)

This week's Fedora 11 announcements come with apologies to William Butler Yeats^[1].

Somewhere in the build systems of Fedora,
A shape with lion body and the name of a Greek king,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the impatient downloaders.
The schedule slips again^[2]; but now I know
That 6 months of stony sleep
Were vexed to release by Jesse Keating,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards June 9th to be born?

Fedora Board

The Fedora Board's next public IRC meeting will be held on Thursday June 4th, at 1700 UTC^[1].
