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."
