| I18n Test Day 2009-10-29 |
|
Oct 29, 2009 - 12:28 AM - by AdamW
|
|
Tomorrow (for me, anyway, probably today for most) - 2009-10-29 - sees the final Test Day of the Fedora 12 cycle, on i18n (internationalization). This is a key topic for many Fedora users, covering the rendering of text in non-Roman alphabets, and input methods for those languages that require them. The test day page is all set up and ready with test cases, and you can test using any Fedora 12 - the Beta live image, an installed Beta, or the nightly live images. Testing is under way right now in #fedora-test-day on Freenode IRC, and will continue throughout 2009-10-29 whenever that is in your time zone! Please come... [Read More]

| Quick reminder: Nightly Rawhide Live CD's |
|
Oct 26, 2009 - 4:40 PM - by RahulSundaram

Hi,
Nightly composes of all the Fedora Spins are available from http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/ There are many ways to get started with the latest development release including grabbing the latest boot.iso file and doing a network installation but the nightly composes are quite helpful. If you had trouble with any of the Alpha or Beta release installations, this would be a quick way to get involved.
More details at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releas...alling_Rawhide Your participation is very valuable as we get close to the Fedora 12 Release.

| F12 Power Management Test Day tomorrow (2009-10-22) |
|
Oct 21, 2009 - 11:30 PM - by AdamW

It's that time again: despite the ongoing excitement of the Fedora 12 Beta release, the Test Day schedule rolls along implacably, crushing the weak and puny beneath its pitiless wheels. Wait, that's not right. It's a happy, careful Test Day schedule of love. It would never crush anyone, let alone the weak and puny. Phew.
Tomorrow's Test Day (2009-10-22) is on power management. Specifically, it's to test that some new power management tuning features in Fedora 12 are working correctly. These are great additions to Fedora 12 as they should improve battery life on laptops and netbooks.
The bad news is this Test Day requires either an installed copy of Rawhide - aka Fedora 12 Beta -... [Read More]
