Development Release: Fedora 8 Test 2 |
 |
Jesse Keating has announced the second test release of Fedora 8: "This is the second test release of the Fedora 8 release, which is scheduled for November 8, 2007." Both the release announcement and the release notes are sketchy about the changes in this release, but we know that it does include the latest release candidate of GNOME 2.20, a release candidate of kernel 2.6.23, a new system logging daemon called Rsyslog, and PulseAudio - an advanced sound server which is compatible with nearly all existing Linux sound systems and allows for hot-switching audio outputs. If you are interested in helping to beta test this release, please download the installation DVD and live CD images from these mirrors sites or get them via BitTorrent: Fedora-8-Test-2-i386.iso (2,885MB), Fedora-8-Test-2-x86_64.iso (3,427MB).

| About Fedora |
| The Fedora Project is an openly-developed project designed by Red Hat, open for general participation, led by a meritocracy, following a set of project objectives. The goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to build a complete, general purpose operating system exclusively from open source software. Development will be done in a public forum. The project will produce time-based releases of Fedora about 2-3 times a year, with a public release schedule. The Red Hat engineering team will continue to participate in building Fedora and will invite and encourage more outside participation than in past releases. By using this more open process, we hope to provide an operating system more in line with the ideals of free software and more appealing to the open source community. |
