Fedora Update Ready For Distribution?
Paul Frields is new to Red Hat, but he's not new to the Fedora Linux community. Frields became the Fedora project leader and a Red Hat employee at the beginning of February. As the new leader takes the helm, Fedora 9 unveils FreeIPA and a plethora of new features.
Previously Frields was a U.S. government employee and a contributor to the Fedora community for more than four years.
Frields takes over at a pivotal time for Fedora as it gears up for its next major release, Fedora 9. A feature freeze is currently set for March 4, and Frields is already ready to chat about where Fedora is heading.
"I'd say we have a more involved feature process now, a deeper commitment to making sure that features that people are interested in are tracked as they move forward," Frields told InternetNews.com.
"At a certain point we know which features will appear in a release -- in this case Fedora 9 -- so we're not scrambling toward the end of a development cycle to add in that one more little bit that, in turn, breaks other bits," he said.
