[news 28]

Welcome to Fedora Weekly News Issue 153 for the week ending November

23rd, 2008.

 

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN/Issue153

 

Fedora 10 is released[0] tomorrow and we hope you can find time during

the install to read-up on what's going on in our rapidly moving Fedora

Project. We include a discussion in Developments of the need for "More

and Wider Testing". Translation shares that "Release Announcements in

Local Languages" are now possible, Artwork brings an important "Fonts

Survey" to your attention and also looks at the "Echo Perspective" icon

variants. SecurityAdvisories lists the essential updates. Virtualization

gets you up to speed with an overview of all the new features of "Fedora

10 Virtualization". This is just a sampling of this week's essential

reading for those who wish to stay abreast of where our distribution is

going and why. Enjoy Fedora 10!
