    Hello folks! I’m coming to you live from a very wet and windy Ireland. April showers is certainly a thing, but this kind of rain is even giving the typical Irish weather a run for its money! 😀 I hope you all have had a good (and drier) week so far and enjoy your weekend, and if you would like some weekend reading, weekend bug fixing, or even a weekend proposal writing session, read on for the links and information you need to do just that 🙂

    Flock to Fedora

    The call for papers for our annual contributor conference, Flock to Fedora, is now open until April 21st. Check out the cfp page for details on the tracks and themes of this years conference, plus information on travel subsidies and how to contact event staff if you need help.

    Fedora Linux 40

    Important Dates

    • Currently in Final Freeze
    • Thursday, April 11th @ 1700 UTC – Fedora Linux 40 Go/No-Go Meeting
    • Tuesday, April 16th – Current Release Target Date (this will depend on the outcome of the Go/No-Go meeting)

    Help Wanted

    There are a number of blocker bugs open against F40 at the moment, both proposed and accepted. If you could spare some time to visit the blocker bugs app and reproduce some of the bugs to validate if they are blocking bugs or not, and/or even propose a fix for a bug listed, that would be hugely appreciated. A summary of the current F40 bugs can be found on this email with links to each too.

    Fedora Linux 41

    Change proposals are welcome for F41, and even F42 (and F43 if you’re that prepared!). The first deadline is 19th June if your change requires any infrastructure changes, and 26th June if it is a system-wide change. Self-contained changes may be submitted until 16th July. Those dates might seem far off, but please do have your changes in Rawhide as early as possible as this impacts a lot of the build and release folks (QA, rel-eng, etc) so getting the work proposed, approved and into development as early as possible is strongly recommended. Below is a list of changes proposed, awaiting FESCo decision and already accepted for F41.

    Hi folks, welcome to the weekly from your Fedora operations architect. This is an exciting week in the project as our Fedora Linux 40 Beta goes live tomorrow! Have a read on for more information.

    Fedora Linux 40

    Beta is GO!

    Tomorrow, March 26th, our Fedora Linux 40 Beta will release, and I cannot thank our wonderful community enough for all the hard work they have been putting in the last few months to create it. When it lands, testing how the release behaves and filing bugs and posting fixes would be hugely appreciated as our Beta is what we will polish and refine for our official final release in a few weeks. You can learn how to and where to file a bug on our docs page.

    Reminder: Final Freeze is due to start in one week – 2nd April 2024. Please try to prioritize F40 Beta testing and fixes this week in order to get any fixes submitted and applied before we enter the freeze period. This really helps our QA and release engineering teams on the far side of the freeze build and test our final release candidate compose(s) in good time to find any pesky bugs.

    Save the Dates!

    Flock to Fedora is returning this year from August 7th – 10th in Rochester, New York, USA and the call for proposals has officially opened!
