[[KevinFenzi|Kevin Fenzi]] announced[4] the new FESCo issue-tracking tool.  "In the past, interested parties could bring matters to the attention of FESCo in several ways: Mailing the chair, following up to the schedule posting on the devel list asking for a new topic to be added, or attending meetings on irc and bringing up the topic at the end of the meeting in the Open Discussion phase.

Martin Sourada announced[0] the availability of the premiere issue of "Echo Monthly News[1]." Said Martin, "Since it's our first release it is not perfect and therefore we will appreciate any feedback, suggestions for improvement, etc. at the fedora-art-list and #fedora-art at irc.freenode.net."

Fedora 10 Beta Freeze Coming Soon

Jesse Keating discussed[2] the Fedora 10 Beta schedule. "The new freeze date is Sept. 9, which is in 7 days. This is a friendly reminder that the freeze is coming up, and coming up quickly. I realize that rawhide has been less than great lately, and we're working quite hard to fix the issues."

Fedora 8 and 9 Updates Status

Jesse Keating wrote[3] about the status of updates on Fedora 8 and Fedora 9. "We have done a successful compose of all the existing and as of yesterday pending updates for Fedora 8 and Fedora 9, all signed with our new keys. These updates will soon hit mirrors in a new set of directory locations. What we don't have quite yet is the updated fedora-release package in the old updates location that will get you the new keys and the new repo locations. The last mile testing of this update requires that new updates be live on the mirrors."

FESCo Issue Tracking

Kevin Fenzi announced[4] the new FESCo issue-tracking tool. "In the past, interested parties could bring matters to the attention of FESCo in several ways: Mailing the chair, following up to the schedule posting on the devel list asking for a new topic to be added, or attending meetings on irc and bringing up the topic at the end of the meeting in the Open Discussion phase.

While these methods work well for issues that simply need a bit of discussion and a decision, longer term issues that should be tracked and discussed further sometimes are forgotten."
