General

The Fedora Board is having its monthly meeting on Tuesday March 3rd at 1900 UTC on IRC[1].

  • 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 11

The Fedora 11 feature freeze is coming this week[2]. Feature owners should update their feature's status[3] on the wiki before March 3rd, as the feature list will be sent to FESCo on March 6th for review.

Mass rebuilds of all packages are ongoing for Fedora 11[4]. Package maintainers should check[5] to see whether or not they own any packages that still need to be rebuilt.

Finally, we need to ensure that any hard-coded i386 architectures in spec files are fixed, or else the package runs the risk of not being built in the 32bit Rawhide repository[6].

Upcoming Events

March 5-7: Computer Using Educators[1] in Palm Springs, CA.

March 9: Florida Linux Show[2] in Jacksonville, FL.

March 10-12: FOSE[3] in Washington, DC.

March 13-15: Chemnitzer Linux Tage[4] in Chemnitz, Germany.

FUDCon Berlin 2009

FUDCon Berlin[1] will be held from June 26 - 28 in Berlin, Germany.
