Distributions: No winter break in Linux land
*With Fedora 12 and Ubuntu 9.10 now out the door, developers are already
turning their attention to the spring releases. KDE3 has definitively
gone the way of the dodo as far as openSUSE and Mandriva are concerned.
Google is taking its first steps in the operating system market with
Chrome OS.

Elections are also taking place at Fedora, for the Fedora Board
<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/Elections/Nominations>, Fedora
Engineering Steering Committee (FESCo) and the Fedora Ambassadors
Steering Committee (FAmSCo).
A name for Fedora 13 has now been chosen; the next release, scheduled
for the 27th of April, 2010, will be called Goddard (after scientist
Robert H. Goddard). Traditionally the new name always has a connection
with the old, the link here being rocket science.
