---- Announcing the release of Fedora 15 (Lovelock) ----
Jared K. Smith announced[1],
"Let the celebrations begin! Fedora 15 is officially here!
Fedora is a leading edge, free and open source operating system that continues
to deliver innovative features to many users, with a new release about every
six months. We bring to you the latest and greatest release of Fedora ever,
Fedora 15! Join us and share the joy of Free software and the community with
friends and family. We have several major new features with special focus on
desktops, developers, virtualization, security and system administration.
---- What's new in Fedora 15 (Lovelock)? ----
----- For desktop users -----
A universe of new features for end users:
* GNOME 3 desktop environment -- GNOME 3 is the next generation of
GNOME with a brand new user interface. It provides a completely new and modern
desktop that has been designed for today's users and technologies. Fedora 15 is
the first major distribution to include GNOME 3 by default. GNOME 3 is being
developed with extensive upstream participation from Red Hat developers and
Fedora volunteers, and GNOME 3 is tightly integrated in Fedora 15. GNOME Shell,
the new user interface of GNOME 3, is polished, robust and extensible, and
several GNOME Shell extensions and the GNOME tweak tool are available in the
Fedora software repository. Thanks to the Fedora desktop team developers and
community volunteers.
* Btrfs filesystem -- Btrfs, the next generation filesystem is being
developed with upstream participation of Red Hat developers, Oracle and many
others. Btrfs is now available as a menu item in the installer (only for
non-live images. live images support just Ext4) and does not require passing a
special option to the installer as in the previous releases. Btrfs availability
has moved up a notch as a incremental step towards the goal of Btrfs as the
default filesystem in the next release of Fedora. The btrfsck program for
performing filesystem checks is under active development upstream with
participation from Fedora but the one included in this release is still limited
and hence users are highly recommended to maintain backups when using this
filesystem (backups are a good idea anyway!). Thanks to Josef Bacik, Red Hat
Btrfs developer, for his upstream participation and integration of this feature
in Fedora including a yum plugin (yum-plugin-fs-snapshot) that enables users to
rollback updates if necessary, taking advantage of Btrfs snapshots.
* Indic typing booster -- Indic typing booster is a predictive input
method for the ibus platform. It suggests complete words based on partial
input, and users can simply select a word from the suggestion list and improve
their typing speed and accuracy. Thanks to the development led by Pravin
Satpute and Naveen Kumar, Red Hat I18N team engineers in Pune, India.
* Better crash reporting -- ABRT, a crash reporting tool in Fedora,
can now perform a part of crash processing remotely, on a Fedora Project
server. Remote coredump retracing avoids users having to download a large
amount of debug information and leads to better quality reports. The retrace
server can generate good backtraces with a much higher success rate than local
retracing.
* Redesigned SELinux troubleshooter -- SELinux troubleshooter is a
graphical tool that watches and analyses log files and automatically provides
solutions to common issues. In this release, this tool has been redesigned to
be simpler but provide more solutions at the same time. Thanks to Dan Walsh,
SELinux developer at Red Hat, for leading the development of this functionality.
* Higher compression in live images -- Live images in this release
use XZ compression instead of gzip as in older releases, making them smaller
(about 10%) to download or providing more space for applications to be made
available by default. Thanks to Bruno Wolff III, Fedora community volunteer,
for integrating this functionality in Fedora Live CD tools. Thanks to Phillip
Lougher for his work on squashfs and Lasse Collin for getting XZ squashfs
support in the upstream Linux kernel.
* Better power management -- Fedora 15 includes a redesigned and
better version of powertop and newer versions of tuned and pm-utils for better
power management. The tuned package contains a daemon that tunes system
settings dynamically to balance between power consumption and performance. It
also performs various kernel tunings according to selected profile. The new
version of tuned brings several bug fixes, improvements and profiles updates
for better efficiency. Thanks to Jaroslav Škarvada, Red Hat developer, for
integrating the newer powertop and pm-utils, as well as performing power
measurement and benchmarking. Thanks to Jan Včelák, Red Hat developer, for
developing tuned and integrating the newer version in this release.
* LibreOffice productivity suite -- LibreOffice is a community-driven
and developed free and open source personal productivity suite which is a
project of the not-for-profit organization, The Document Foundation. It is a
fork of OpenOffice.org with a diverse community of contributors including
developers from Red Hat, Novell and many volunteers. OpenOffice.org has been
replaced with LibreOffice in this release. Thanks to Caolán McNamara from Red
Hat for his upstream participation and for maintaining LibreOffice in Fedora.
* Firefox 4 web browser -- A new major version of this popular browser
from the Mozilla non-profit foundation is part of this release. Firefox 4
features JavaScript execution speeds up to six times faster than the previous
version, new capabilities such as Firefox Sync, native support for the patent
unencumbered WebM multimedia format, HTML5 technologies and a completely
revised user interface. Thanks to Christopher Aillon from Red Hat and others
for integrating Firefox 4 in this release.
* KDE plasma workspaces 4.6 and Xfce 4.8 desktop environments --
Fedora 15 includes new major versions of these alternative desktop
environments. Fedora also provides dedicated KDE Plasma Workspaces and Xfce
installable live images that include these desktop environments by default.
Thanks to Red Hat developers and other Fedora community volunteers, part of KDE
and Xfce special interest groups.
* Sugar .92 learning platform -- Sugar is a desktop environment
originally designed for the OLPC project which has now evolved into a learning
platform developed by the non-profit Sugar Labs foundation. This version
provides major usability improvements for the first login screen and the
control panel, as well as new features such as support for 3G networks. Thanks
to Peter Robinson and Sebastian Dziallas, Fedora community volunteers, for
leading the integration of this environment.
----- For developers -----
For developers there are all sorts of additional goodies:
* Robotics Suite -- Fedora 15 now includes the Robotics Suite, a
collection of packages that provides a usable out-of-the-box robotics
development and simulation environment. This ever-growing suite features
up-to-date robotics frameworks, simulation environments, utility libraries, and
device support, and consolidates them into an easy-to-install package group.
Refer to https://rmattes.blogspot.com/2011/05/fedora-15-robotics-suite.html for
more details. Thanks to Tim Niemueller and Rich Mattes, Fedora community
volunteers for their participation.
* GCC 4.6 -- GCC 4.6 is the system default compiler in Fedora 15 and
all the relevant packages have been rebuilt in Fedora 15 using it. Developers
can realize compiled code improvements and use the newly added features, such
as improved C++0x support, support for the Go language, REAL*16 support in
Fortran and many other improvements. Thanks to Jakub Jelinek from Red Hat for
upstream participation and leading the integration in Fedora.
* GDB 7.3 -- This new GDB release 7.3 together with Archer and Fedora
extensions improves the debugging experience on Fedora by making the debugger
more powerful. The majority of these features were written by Red Hat
engineers, thus benefiting all gdb users. New features for the Fedora 15
release include support for breakpoints at SystemTap markers (probes), support
for using labels in the program's source, OpenCL language debugging support,
thread debugging of core dumps and Python scripting improvements. Numerous
important packages within Fedora are pre-built with SystemTap static markers,
and these can now be used as the target for breakpoints in gdb. Thanks to Jan
Kratochvil and other GDB developers from Red Hat for their upstream
participation and integration of this functionality.
* Programming language updates -- Python 3.2: The system Python 3
stack has been upgraded to 3.2 (the system Python 2 stack remains at 2.7),
bringing in hundreds of fixes and tweaks; for a list of changes refer to
https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.2.html. OCaml 3.12: OCaml 3.12 is a
major revision of the OCaml programming language, the camlp4 macro language,
libraries, and CDuce for XML processing. Rails 3.0.5: Rails 3 is a large update
to the Ruby on Rails web framework. It brings many new features such as a
polished routing API, new activemailer and activerecord APIs, and many more new
enhancements. Thanks to Dave Malcolm, Richard W.M. Jones and Mo Morsi, Red Hat
developers leading the integration of the respective features in this release.
* Maven 3 -- Maven 3.0 offers better stability and performance
compared to previous versions and a lot of work under the hood to simplify
writing Maven plugins and further improve performance by building projects in
parallel. Refer to https://maven.apache.org/docs/3.0/release-notes.html for
more information. Fedora still provides maven2 package to support backward
compatibility where needed. Thanks to Red Hat developer, Stanislav Ochotnický
for the work in this feature.
----- For system administrators -----
And don't think we forgot the system administrators:
* systemd system and session manager -- systemd is a system and
session manager for Linux, compatible with SysV and LSB init scripts. systemd
provides aggressive parallelization capabilities, uses socket and D-Bus
activation for starting services, offers on-demand starting of daemons, keeps
track of processes using Linux cgroups, supports snapshotting and restoring of
the system state, maintains mount and automount points and implements a
powerful transactional dependency-based service control logic. It can work as a
drop-in replacement for sysvinit. A related change is /var/run and /var/lock
are mounted from tmpfs and results in a simpler, more faster and robust boot-up
scheme and aligns to the default configuration of several other distributions.
Thanks to Lennart Poettering, Rahul Sundaram. Michal Schmidt, Bill Nottingham
and others from Red Hat for leading development and integration of systemd as
the default init system in this release and many Fedora community volunteers
for their extensive testing and feedback.
* Dynamic firewall -- Dynamic firewall makes it possible to change
firewall settings without the need to restart the firewall and makes persistent
connections possible. This is for example very useful for services, that need
to add additional firewall rules including virtualization (libvirtd) and
VPN(openvpn). With the static firewall model these rules are lost if the
firewall gets modified or restarted. The firewall daemon (firewalld) holds the
current configuration internally and is able to modify the firewall without the
need to recreate the complete firewall configuration; it is also able to
restore the configuration in a service restart and reload case. Another use
case for the dynamic firewall mode is printer discovery. For this the discovery
program will be started locally that sends out a broadcast message. It will
most likely get an answer from an unknown address (the new printer). This
answer will be filtered by the firewall, because the answer is not related to
the broadcast and the port of the program that was sending out the message is
dynamic and therefore a fixed rule can not be created for this. It also has a
D-BUS interface to allow clients or services to request firewall changes.
firewall-cmd (part of firewalld package) is a very simple yet powerful user
space alternative to the iptables command: for instance, firewall-cmd --enable
--service=samba --timeout=10 opens the appropriate ports for Samba for only ten
seconds. Since the current implementation is a proof of concept, in this
release, it is available in the Fedora software repository but not installed by
default. The plan is to make it the default firewall solution in the next
release. Thanks to Thomas Woerner from Red Hat for developing this feature.
* BoxGrinder appliance creator -- BoxGrinder is a set of free and
open source tools used for building appliances (images/virtual machines) for
various platforms (KVM, Xen, VMware, EC2). BoxGrinder creates appliances from
simple plain text appliance definition files. Thanks to Marek Goldmann and
others from Red Hat for upstream participation and bringing this feature into
Fedora.
* Spice integration in Virt Manager -- With Fedora 15, virt-manager
has been updated to support Spice, the complete open source solution for
interaction with virtualized desktops. It is now possible to create a virtual
machine with Spice support without touching the command line, easily taking
advantage of all the Spice enhancements directly from virt-manager. Spice
provides better performance and additional functionality (such as copy/paste
between guest and host) compared to using VNC. Thanks to the spice-gtk library,
a new client can be developed in Python or C, or with gobject-introspection
bindings. Thanks to Marc-André Lureau, Red Hat developer, for leading
development of this feature.
* Consistent network device naming -- Servers often have multiple
Ethernet ports, either embedded on the motherboard, or on add-in PCI cards.
Linux has traditionally named these ports ethX, but there has been no
correlation of the ethX names to the chassis labels - the ethX names are
non-deterministic. Starting in Fedora 15, Ethernet ports will have a new naming
scheme corresponding to physical locations, rather than ethX. By changing the
naming convention, system administrators will no longer have to guess at the
ethX to physical port mapping, or invoke workarounds on each system to rename
them into some "sane" order. This feature is enabled on all physical systems
that expose network port naming information in SMBIOS 2.6 or later. Thanks to
Jordan Hargrave, Matt Domsch and several other engineers from Dell for their
long term upstream participation and collaboration with Fedora in integration
of this feature.
* Setuid removal -- Fedora 15 removes setuid in several applications
and instead specifically assigns the capabilities required by each application
to improve security by reducing the impact of any potential vulnerabilities in
these applications. Thanks to Daniel Walsh from Red Hat for leading the
integration of this feature.
* Improved support for encrypted home directory -- Fedora 15 brings
in improved support for eCryptfs, a stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux.
Starting from Fedora 15, authconfig can be used to automatically mount a
private encrypted part of the home directory when a user logs in. Thanks to
Paolo Bonzini from Red Hat for integration of this feature.
* RPM 4.9.0 package manager -- RPM 4.9.0 brings a number of immediate
benefits to Fedora including the pluggable dependency generator, built-in
filtering of generated dependencies, additional package ordering hinting
mechanism, performance improvements and many bugfixes. More details at
https://rpm.org/wiki/Releases/4.9.0, Thanks to Panu Matilainen from Red Hat and
other RPM developers for their participation and help in integration of this
feature in this release.
* Tryton ERP system -- Tryton is a three-tier general-purpose
application platform and basis for an ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)
system. Currently, the main modules available for Tryton cover accounting,
invoicing, sale management, purchase management, analytic accounting and
inventory management Thanks to Dan Horák, Fedora community volunteer for
integration of this feature.

---- Cooperative Bug Isolation for Fedora 15 ----
Ben Liblit announced[1]:
"The Cooperative Bug Isolation Project (CBI) is now available for Fedora 14.
CBI[2] is an ongoing research effort to find and fix bugs in the real world. We
distribute specially modified versions of popular open source software
packages. These special versions monitor their own behavior while they run, and
report back how they work (or how they fail to work) in the hands of real users
like you. Even if you've never written a line of code in your life, you can
help make things better for everyone simply by using our special bug-hunting
packages.
We currently offer instrumented versions of Evolution, The GIMP, GNOME Panel,
Gnumeric, Liferea, Nautilus, Pidgin, Rhythmbox, and SPIM. Download at[3]. Or
just download and install [4] to automatically configure your system to use the
CBI repository.
It's that easy! Tell your friends! Tell your neighbors! The more of you there
are, the more bugs we can find.
We still offer CBI packages for earlier releases as well, going all the way
back to Fedora 1. When and if you decide to upgrade to Fedora 15, we'll be
ready for you. Until then, your participation remains valuable even on older
distributions.
Dr. Ben, the CBI guy"

--- Fedora Events ---
The purpose of event is to build a global Fedora events calendar, and to
identify responsible Ambassadors for each event. The event page is laid out by
quarter and by region. Please maintain the layout, as it is crucial for budget
planning. Events can be added to this page whether or not they have an
Ambassador owner. Events without an owner are not eligible for funding, but
being listed allows any Ambassador to take ownership of the event and make it
eligible for funding. In plain words, Fedora events are the exclusive and
source of marketing, learning and meeting all the fellow community people
around you. So, please mark your agenda with the following events to consider
attending or volunteering near you!
---- Upcoming Events (March - May 2011) ----

--- First look: Fedora 15 arrives with GNOME 3.0 and systemd (ArsTechnica) ---
Kara Schiltz forwarded[1] an ArsTechnica article on the release of Fedora 15:
"The community of open source software developers behind the Fedora Linux
distribution announced this week the release of version 15. The update brings
an overhauled desktop user interface and a number of noteworthy architectural
improvements under the hood.
Fedora is a community-driven Linux distribution that is sponsored by Red Hat.
It is released twice a year on a six-month development cycle and typically
ships with the latest cutting-edge Linux software. Fedora is known for riding
ahead of the curve and is often the first Linux distro to introduce major new
features. It also serves as an incubation space for emerging Red Hat
technologies, particularly in areas like virtualization. It lacks the usability
and robustness of some other distros, but its unique technical advantages and
high commitment to open source ideology are appealing to system administrators,
software developers, and software freedom advocates.
The most significant user-facing change in Fedora 15 is the inclusion of GNOME
3.0, a major update of the open source GNOME desktop environment. It brings a
completely new desktop shell to Fedora that helps to modernize the user
experience. The new shell is built with the Clutter toolkit and requires
hardware-accelerated rendering in order to operate. Fedora fortunately does a
pretty good job of handling it with open source drivers on many hardware
configurations."

--- Fedora 15: More than just a pretty interface (The Register UK) ---
Kara Schiltz forwarded[1] a posting on the release of Fedora 15:
"The Red Hat-backed Fedora Project has released the latest version of its
Linux-based operating system, Fedora 15, into the wild.
Despite the similarities of the two leading Linux-based PC operating systems,
Fedora has long played second fiddle to Ubuntu in the minds of many Linux fans.
Now - for the first time - there are actually major differences between the two
distros.
For most users, the debate between the two can be distilled down to GNOME 3
versus Unity. But as always, Fedora remains quite a bit different under the
surface, as well.
With the Unity Shell making waves - and not always good ones - in the Ubuntu
community, Fedora 15 offers something of a refuge for those frustrated with the
Unity Shell.
Unfortunately GNOME 3, Fedora's new default desktop, while in much better shape
than Ubuntu's Unity, is still very different than any version of GNOME you've
used before."

--- How GNOME 3 is besting Ubuntu Unity (Techrepublic.com) ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] an article on Gnome 3 compared to Unity:
"Takeaway: Jack Wallen was jonsing for GNOME 3 and discovered the best route to
this new desktop was Fedora 15 beta. Can you image how surprised Jack was to
find out that GNOME 3 blows away Ubuntu Unity? Read on to find out more."
Conclusion: "I'd like to drop some props to the Fedora 15 team, as they're
doing an absolutely incredible job with this bleeding-edge Linux distribution.
Fedora 15 and GNOME 3 is a serious win-win from my perspective. Give it a go,
and you might find that you agree!"

--- Fedora 15 Released; Comes With Gnome 3 ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] another posting on Fedora 15 and Gnome 3:
"The best features of Fedora 15, which will attract a lot of users is Gnome 3
shell. Fedora 15 will give users a distro which will allow then to explore
Gnome 3 with the stability that Fedora 15 offers.
Fedora 15 is also introducing Btrfs as a menu item in the installer (only for
non-live images. live images support just Ext4) and does not require passing a
special option to the installer as in the previous releases. Btrfs availability
has moved up a notch as a incremental step towards the goal of Btrfs as the
default filesystem in the next release of Fedora."

--- Fedora 15's five best features (ZDNet.com) ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] an article about Fedora 15's top five features;
Rahul writes:
This list doesn't cover major features like systemd and talks about Fedora not
including Chrome ignoring the fact that Chrome is a proprietary browser.
Chromium is not included for other reasons and quick a search in the wiki
documents that. However the list of five is interesting

--- Test Days ---
The Fedora 15 Test Day track is now finished, and the Fedora 16 Test Day track
has not yet started. If you would like to propose a main track Test Day for the
Fedora 16 cycle, please contact the QA team via email or IRC, or file a ticket
in QA Trac[1].

--- Fedora 15 validation and preparation ---
This was a quiet week after the declaration that Fedora 15 was gold on Tuesday,
so the group worked on updating the Fedora 15 common bugs page[1] and tried to
help with getting the Sugar desktop into a releasable state[2], and made sure
0-day updates for the release were being properly tested. James Laska worked
on[3] and announced[4]providing a validation framework for the newly-introduced
multi-desktop DVD live image[5], and along with Andre Robatino and Christoph
Wickert, performed the required testing.

--- Release criteria revisions ---
Adam Williamson proposed some more release criteria changes. First up was
logging[1]. James Laska suggested a refinement[2], and Adam posted a revised
proposal[3], which was met with general approval. Later, Adam announced that he
had created the criteria pages for Fedora 16[4], and including the new logging
criterion, along with some other criteria which had previously been agreed upon
but not added to the Fedora 15 criteria. He also re-started the discussion of
how to refer to desktops that are considered able to block the release as
compared to those that are not, and suggested the term 'release-blocking
desktops'. Jóhann Gu?mundsson re-raised the question of which desktops should
be considered to block the release[5], and Adam maintained that this was a
question that was beyond the authority of the QA group to decide[6]. Finally,
Adam also proposed a criterion regarding security issues[7] for discussion by
the QA group along with the security and development groups.

--- Housekeeping tasks ---
Adam Williamson noted that there are several tasks nominally under the
Bugzappers group's remit that had not been happening recently[1], and suggested
running a meeting to ensure they would be looked after. Robyn Bergeron replied
that several of the tasks were really her responsibility as program manager[2],
but agreed that it would be a good idea to improve the scheduling and planning
of these tasks to make it less likely they would not be completed in future.

--- QA approval of release candidates ---
Adam Williamson reported[1] that he had updated the Go/No-Go meeting wiki
page[2] to define the parameters for QA's approval or otherwise of release
candidate builds, to make it clear that QA's decision in this regard is
entirely determined by concrete criteria (whether all necessary validation
tests have been completed and no unaddressed accepted release blocker bugs
remain), so that there is no subjectivity to the decision and it can be
reported to the Go/No-Go meeting by any member of the QA group (or simply
inferred by anyone present at the meeting, whether a member of the QA team or
not). Jóhann Gu?mundsson questioned whether the Go/No-Go meeting was even
necessary, given the improved procedures[3]. Adam agreed that this was a
reasonable question[4], but suggested it might be a good idea to preserve the
meeting as a 'human in the loop' safeguard against particularly strange and
unforeseeable circumstances.

Following quickly on the heels of last week's 1.0 RC1, Matej Cepl announced the
release of version 1.0 of his Firefox extension to aid in bug triage,
bugzilla-triage-scripts[1]. He asked all Bugzappers with Firefox 4 to update to
it and report back on how it worked.

--- AutoQA ---
The AutoQA team updated their progress as usual at the weekly QA meeting of
2011-05-23[1]. Kamil Paral reported that the team had been working on the
proposed 'pretty' plaintext logs, with two proposals: one[2] and two[3]. Tim
Flink had been working on the proposed 'spam reduction' code, making AutoQA
output less overwhelming for developers, and would be pushing it soon. Josef
Skladanka had been working on a wiki page giving an overview of the ResultsDB
project[4].
