Hi all, I've been thinking about the core part in Fedora that was removed some time ago (some 7-8 releases ago) but still hangs around here and there. One place in particular is in package names. Fedora 14 for example have fc14 suffix, why not change this to f14? best regards Jonas -- marketing mailing list marketing@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing
