There seems to be a whole lot of confusion about the current Fedora release cycle in the community -- for example the german wikipedia-writers have a long discussion about it and nowhere can find a *official* statement [*1] that the nine month cycle for FC5 was only a exception: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diskussion:Fedora_Core#6_Monate It IMHO would be good if we would have a defined long term release cycle just as Gnome has. And IMHO it should be in sync with gnome somehow (just as Ubuntu has, too)[*2]. E.g. The plan for Fedora Core could be: Always release two weeks after a major gnome release (this would be end of March and end of September). Yeah, sometimes it could slip a week or two if that is needed, but the plan for the version after that one should not slip due to this. Just my 2 cents. CU thl [*1] -- yes, there must be a "nearly official" statement somewhere in the archives of fedora-maintainers or fedora-devel -- I tried to find it, but gave up after 10 minutes [*2] -- Gnome releases every 6 month. RHEL releases round about every 18 Months, so a Fedora release every 6 month would probably fit with the goals for Red Hat, too. -- Thorsten Leemhuis <fedora@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
