FUDCon F11 Boston -- News Update!
=================================
* All of our location information is confirmed -- we will be holding
the conference as predicted, at MIT in the Sloan Building. There
will be plentiful space for hackfests and BarCamp sessions over the
course of the weekend.
* FUDPub will be held at Flat Top Johnny's on Saturday night (January
10) from 6:00-10:00pm.
* The wiki remains open for registration. Please remember to note
your shirt size, whether you prefer vegetarian fare for lunch on
Saturday, and any other important information (in the "Comments"
section).
* The hotel group rate is good until DECEMBER 19. After that, it will
be up to the hotel to decide whether or not to extend their offer of
$99/night. So sign up now!
And here's some further news to sweeten the pot -- the One Laptop Per
Child and SugarLabs communities will be joining us for FUDCon, to
address areas of common interest like packaging and building for these
unique projects, and to talk to Fedora community members about getting
involved. This should make FUDCon a very exciting event and I look
forward to seeing everyone there who can make it!

F11 Naming: Sulphur -> Cambridge -> <NewName>?
by Josh Boyer
Hi All,
It's that time of year again. Time to start the naming process
for the next Fedora release.
To recap on the rules:
1) <NewName> must have some link to Cambridge
More specifically, the link should be
Cambridge is a <blank> and
<NewName> is a <blank>
Where <blank> is the same for both
2) The link between <NewName> and Cambridge cannot be the same as
between Sulphur and Cambridge. That link was "both are cities".
We're doing the name collection differently this year than in
the past. Contributors wishing to make a suggestion are asked to
go to the F11 naming wiki page, and add an entry to the suggestion
table found there:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Name_suggestions_for_Fedora_11
The naming submissions are open starting now until Dec 8. The
rest of the schedule is outlined on the wiki page.
So, put on your thinking caps and come up with some really good
suggestions!
Happy naming.
