F9 and bridged networking
by Gerry Reno
Is there some new-fangled way to get bridged networking working with F9?
I put my bridge in /etc/network/interfaces and restart networking and no
bridge.

if auto, lo
iface lo

auto br0

iface eth0

maintainer groups
by Colin Walters
Hi,
I'd like to see more explicit support in Fedora for maintainership
"groups". For example, I would love if I could have some of my random
dependency Java packages be owned by something like
"java-maint(a)fedoraproject.org". We already have some existing teams
(gecko-maint, etc.)
How do the current groups work? What's the process for creating new ones?

Fedora Package Status of May 3, 2008
by Christian Iseli
Hi folks,
Yikes, 3 months have gone by already since the last time I ran this...
Anyway, right before the release, here is the status...
tibbs, to get a better view of non-sponsors with many reviews, I have
increased the Top listings to 50. I thought this was simplest to
implement. If you have other ideas, I'll gladly try them out :)
Cheers,
Christian

Fedora Robotics SIG
by Tim Niemueller
Hi Fedora users.
Responding to Paul's blog entry that we use Fedora on our robots for
autonomous robot soccer games and service robotics provoked some echoes.
After making it more public what we do on Planet Fedora Jeff Spaleta
asked me to start a Robotics SIG - so we do now!
I ask everybody who is interested in robotics to join the effort and
bring robotics related software into Fedora and make it fit to power
robots, to provide educational tools for robotics starters and to make
it a good distro to develop for robots in general.
I have setup a wiki page at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Robotics.
Please visit and add yourself if you are interested. I have tentatively
scheduled an IRC meeting for next Wednesday, May 7th at 15:00 UTC on IRC
(see wiki page). Let us know if you want to participate but the time
just happens not to be when you are awake so that we can agree on a time
where we max the number of participants. If there are enough people
interested we can think about creating a fedora-robotics-list.
My personal interest in this is mobile robotics and embodied artificial
intelligence. I think Jeff noted some specific interest in the
educational sector of robotics. Robotics is a wide field so we need more
people involved, maybe even with other specific interest in particluar
sub-domains of the field.
The plan is to start identifying interesting software projects that
would be worth packaging (and license compatible, always a problem in
this field), targeting some robotics-related problems (hardware support
comes to my mind) and try to find solutions.
Join now, robotics is a lot of fund and many robots can be built with a
small budget already.
Regards from Aachen,
Tim

Localisation needs to be improved
by Rodd Clarkson
Right, time for this conversation again.
I've installed f9-preview and for the most part I'm thrilled.
But yet again I get to go through the hell of telling applications,
printer set ups and the likes that I'm in Australia and I want to use
A4, etc.
In my case, this all stems from having to us US english because as a
coder, most programming languages are based around US english (center,
not centre, for example) and there's enough noise on the screen without
underlines because I spelt something 'wrong'
Regardless, there has to be plenty of people who live somewhere, but use
a different language or the likes for some reason.
Strangely, I get to go through this all because I picked a language and
stated that I lived somewhere in the installer and the installer chooses
to assume all sorts of things about where I live from the language I
choose to use, rather than the location I live in.
Strangely, I no loner need an xorg.conf file for X, but the installer
can't seem to get something as simple as this right.
I know that I can make changes to some file, and that manually I can
make it work by doing this, but I shouldn't have to. THIS SHOULD JUST
WORK!
This should be a priority for f10.
R.

Monodevelop
by Paul F. Johnson
Hi,
I'm trying to find out why the texteditor from monodevelop has vanished
and have tried plenty of things, none of which seem to be working.
If you have a working copy of monodevelop, could you email me and tell
me the version number and which Fedora your using (8, 9, rawhide etc)
and the platform (x86, ppc, x86_64)?
I really need to get this working so I can import it into F9 when F9
becomes open again.

Removing hdf5 from ppc64

The hdf5 1.8.0 does not build on ppc64 (or it builds, but it fails its
tests). I've put in an ExcludeArch: ppc64 for now and filed a bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=445423
I really don't have any more time to work on this at the moment. If you
do and you care about this, all help is appreciated.
Packages (directly) affected:
gdal
LabPlot
octave
paraview
R-hdf5
Downstream:
