Fedora Board

Our fearless leader^[1] reminded^[2] the community that the Fedora Board will be "holding its monthly public meeting on Tuesday, 7 April 2009, at 1800 UTC on IRC Freenode."

Join #fedora-board-meeting to see the Board's conversation.

Join #fedora-board-public to discuss topics and post questions. This channel is read/write for everyone.

Paul also mentioned a change in the procedure for the meeting. "We're trying something new (albeit in a minor way) in this meeting. The moderator will still be available to gather input from the #fedora-board-public channel, but will voice people, one at a time, in the queue in the #fedora-board-meeting channel."

Fedora 11

Jesse Keating^[1] announced^[2] that the Beta composes are complete, and that the freeze on Rawhide has been lifted.

Andreas Bierfert^[3] announced^[4] that opensync was being downgraded to 0.22, as discussed on fedora-devel-list. As a result, maintainers will need to rebuild "all packages which depend on opensync in some way."

Qt 4.5.0

Kevin Kofler^[1] informed^[2] the community that, "we are working on providing Qt 4.5.0 as updates for Fedora 9 and 10." There are several important pieces of information that anyone who maintains a Qt-4-based package needs to know. Please read the full announcement.

Max Spevack^[1] reminded^[2] the community about FUDCon Berlin 2009^[3], including registration^[4], lodging^[5], and speaking^[6] opportunities.
