Well, we've been working on it for a long time and even with a last minute core technology change FAS2 is ready for testing and almost ready for deployment. What is FAS2 you ask? Its the second iteration of the Fedora Accounts System. It's based off of TurboGears and has so many standards and future expandability I won't even go into that here. What I will say is that we'd like everyone to come test it before we deploy it in the next week or two. The test site is at: https://publictest10.fedoraproject.org/accounts/ This system is completely separate from the current running system so feel free to come in, setup a test account, or 2 or 10, and groups. If you'd like admin or sponsor access to a group just stop by #fedora-admin and ask for it and someone will set you up. What are features to look forward to in FAS2? * Online help system * Translations (the systems there but without translations currently) * JSON Interface * More comprehensive client for shell access * Easier to sign the CLA * OpenID interface (work in progress) * Much less developer-centeric interface To get your own local install going just run: yum install git-core git clone git://git.fedorahosted.org/git/fedora-infrastructure.git/ cd fedora-infrastructure.git/fas vi README If you have any bugs to report please send them to: https://fedorahosted.org/fas2/ We're also taking feature requests though they will likely not make it into the initial deployment.
