Fedora SIG Store Meeting 2008-04-02 (Section 1) == Announcements == In this section, we cover announcements from Fedora Project. https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list Contributing Writer: ThomasChung === Rawhide 20080404 Snapshot Released === JesseKeating announces in fedora-announce-list[1], "As part of our development schedule, we are releasing a snapshot of Rawhide in Live form.
