Hi crew, So you probably heard that Fedora 15 is out. Woo! And that means one thing: I'll be asking everyone endlessly for MOAR FEATURES IN FEDORA 16. Feature submission deadline, per my currently still-slightly-drafty F16 schedule page at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/16/Schedule is July 12. Feature freeze is July 26, which is when your feature should be more or less testable, and significantly complete. If you are wondering what constitutes a "feature", this wiki page is a good place to start. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Policy If you are planning on doing packaging of any sort of cloud-related project, I would recommend starting to work on it *now*, including getting your Feature moving through the Feature process. Now, I hear that the person who usually runs the Cloud SIG meetings also happens to be the Fedora Feature Wrangler as part of her $dayjob, and that she might be a good person to ask if you have questions. (That's me, in case you're wondering.) If you're not sure if what you have should be a feature, my simple answer is that if it's new to Fedora, then, probably. :) Also: If you're planning on doing any packaging of your favorite project, please pipe up here! I'm sure everyone would love to hear about what the plans are for F16. We've got plenty of people willing to help out with reviews and packaging right now, so by all means, seize the opportunity. (Hint: CloudFS, Aeolus, CloudStack, and Eucalyptus folks, I'm looking at you. Even if it's for F17. Do tell your plans. Please. :D) If you've already got a feature in progress and a feature page to match, please list it on the wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG#Cloud_Features_in_Fedora_16 Note that we already have one in the pipeline, Sheepdog. (Thanks to ke4qqq and sdake for working on this!) -Robyn _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud
