I thought it might be a good idea to catch the moment before the release of Fedora 7 to give a quick update on where we stand with respect to Fedora 8 features. I have also updated those feature pages with pointers to review bugs, etc, but here is a summary: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBigboard Havoc and his team have been really busy, and there will be bigboard packages for people to play with when rawhide reopens. An online-desktop package which provides further integration is currently under review. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureCodecBuddy The codeina package is currently under review and should land in rawhide shortly. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBluetooth Bastian has started to work on this; support for ObexFTP in gnome-vfs should land in rawhide tomorrow; and Bluetooth printer support is currently being integrated upstream. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeaturePulseaudio Not much visible progress yet, but we have begun to make pulseaudio work nicely with fast-user-switching. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeaturePolicyKit David has it all worked out in his head :-) Code should start to appear in the next few weeks... http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureBetterStartup We have started to prototype this, but there is not much to see yet, since we need modesetting in the kernel for this. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureNetworkManager http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureDriverBuddy Nothing new here yet. All in all, quite a few new things to expect in rawhide soon, together with Gnome 2.19...
