[[JohnPoelstra|John Poelstra]] is collecting[1] feedback about the Fedora 10 feature process, which will be reviewed and discussed before the Fedora 11 process begins.  "I would like to collect your constructive criticism and ideas for making the process better."  A wiki page[2] has been created for this purpose.
[[PaulWFrields|Paul Frields]] reminded[1] the community about the upcoming Fedora Board meeting on IRC.  The meeting will be on 2008-11-19 (Tuesday) at 19:00 UTC.

"Join #fedora-board-meeting to see the Board's conversation. This channel is read-only for non-Board members. Join #fedora-board-public to discuss topics and post questions.  This channel is read/write for everyone.

The moderator will direct questions from the #fedora-board-public channel to the Board members at #fedora-board-meeting. This should limit confusion and ensure our logs are useful to everyone."


=== Fedora 10 Preview Release ===
[1] http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2008-November/msg00010.html


[[JesseKeating|Jesse Keating]] announced[3] that the Preview Release of F10 (Cambridge) is available.  "The Fedora Project is proud to announce the availability[4] of the Fedora 10 Preview Release. The Fedora 10 Preview Release is our last pre-release offering before we let everyone taste the goods for real."
=== Upcoming Bugzilla Activities ===

[[JonStanley|Jon Stanley]] wrote[2] about some upcoming Bugzilla changes, that will coincide with Fedora 10's release.  There are two things people should be aware of.  First, "we will be rebasing all rawhide bugs to F10. This will result in regular bugs reported against rawhide during the Fedora 10 development cycle being changed to version '10' instead of their current assignment, 'rawhide'."  Also, "all bugs for EOL releases (at this point, Fedora 8) will get a
comment on or about GA of Fedora 10, explaining that one month of maintenance remains, and to either move the bug to a later version if still applicable, or they will be automatically closed in one month with a resolution of WONTFIX."
