Dear all, When visiting Distrowatch.com, I found the following information about Fedora http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20061127 Far-reaching changes affecting the Fedora distribution are looming on the horizon. Discussed by the project's core developers during the recently concluded Fedora Summit, a number of new ideas are currently being submitted for approval by Red Hat. If they are accepted, the "Core" and "Extras" parts of Fedora will merge into what is tentatively called Fedora "Complete", with two separate products, named "Fedora Desktop" and "Fedora Server", emerging from the huge software list. Extending the current support period of about 9 months to around 13 months is another important proposal that will please many Fedora users. Those who enjoy remastering the distribution for their own purposes will be excited to learn about "pungi" and "pilgrim", two tools that will allow building custom distributions and live CDs/DVDs. Pilgrim is also expected to help with delivering an official Fedora live CD/DVD. There is a lot more - please visit the Proposed Changes to the Release Process and Live CD Roadmap pages on FedoraProject.org for more details about these and other changes affecting the popular distribution. Is there any way for the community to have some input on these issues? Is there also another way to find out that these changes are being proposed? Many community members are uninformed and object to some changes when they are made, but since they had no voice they could not do anything about it. Some of these changes like "Fedora Total" seem very logical. We'll still have to wait and see what happens.
