Fedora Board
John Poelstra[1] has been appointed to the Fedora Board, for a two-release term. Paul Frields[2] wrote[3], "Many of our contributors know John from his work in many capacities around the Project, from work with the Fedora Bug Zappers, maintaining our release schedule, and facilitating meetings for many of our community teams. He will bring a unique perspective and experience to our team."
FUDCons and FADs
This section previews upcoming Fedora Users & Developers Conferences, as well as upcoming Fedora Activity Days.
Fedora Activity Day: Development Cycle
In North America, Jesse Keating announced[1] an upcoming Fedora Activity Day[2] "for maintainers, QA, and release engineering folks to meet and discuss ongoing issues with the Fedora Development Cycle and to create a proposal on how to fix many of the issues. Note, this is not an event to decide on a solution, it is an event to decide on a proposal, which will then be shared with the whole community for more input and work."
