add security related packages categorization to comps?
by Till Maas
Hiyas,
the Security spin[0] categorizes several security related packages in
categories like "Wireless" or "Forensics". It would be useful to have this
information also in comps, so one can easier search for e.g. Forensics
software available in Fedora.
Is it ok if I just add such groups to comps with the specified packages or are
there any objections? Btw. is it possible to have a Security group which
contains all the subgroups?
Regards
Till

Make Fedora 11 use vx800 chipset correctly
by Kristaps Viesalgs
Hi!
Here is my problem: I am trying to Fedora LIVE USB boot properly X on
vx800 chipset/Chrome9 integrated GPU on VED8900 netbook (VIA OpenBook
reference design). Default driver \"openchrome\" because of
unsupported vx800 can\'t do that. Only some snv version of this driver
can boot X correctly. But it is only one part of prolem: using boot
option video=vesafb vga=791, mouse cursor goes invisible. Is there any
brutal option how to properly boot X with vesa driver, install Fedora,
then make openchrome svn installation? Is Fedora planning to make for
VIA graphic chipset autoconfiguration utility? It would be very very
useful.
Kinds,
Kristaps

One (more) week slip of Fedora 11 Release
by Jesse Keating
A late discovered and just potentially fixed anaconda storage bug[1] has
necessitated another week slip of our schedule. The change is important
but invasive enough to require re-validating our storage tests. We were
already late in producing the Release Candidate and there is not enough
time to produce another one and validate it in time for next Tuesday's
release date. Therefor we have decided to enact another week long slip
of the release. This gives us time to create a second release candidate
and fully validate it and hand it off to the mirrors in plenty of time
to sync up for the new release date of June 9th. As much as we regret
slipping, we also wish to avoid easily trigger-able bugs in our release,
particularly in software that cannot be fixed with a 0-day update.
At this time we would only accept tag requests for critical issues.

What questions would you like to ask the Fedora Board or FESCo Candidates?
by Thorsten Leemhuis
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Several seats of the Fedora Board and FESCo are up for election soon(¹).
Right now we are in the nomination period, which will be followed by a
"Candidate Questionnaire." That means we give candidates a list of
questions to answer by mail before the Town Hall meetings on IRC happen.
Candidates may choose to answer (or not) those questions as they see
fit. Voters can use the answers to get an impression of what the
candidate think or plan to do while serving for the Board or FESCo.
That should help to get a interesting discussion running during the IRC
Town Hall meetings. Furthermore, those people that can't or don't want
to participate in the IRC meetings can use the answers to make a more
informed vote.
Hence we need to prepare a few good questions that we can send to the
candidates once the nomination period ends. And that's where I need
*your help*: If you have one or more questions you'd like to send to the
candidates simply go and add them to:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections/Questionnaire
It just takes a minute or two, so best to do it right now -- otherwise
you might get distracted and forget about it. ;-)
I'll take care of the remaining work to review, sort, and clean up the
questions(²), and send them to the candidates after the nomination
period ends. Hence, I need them by around the 27th of May. I'll later
collect the answers from the candidates and put them up for pubic
consumption to give people enough time to read them before the town hall
meetings start.
So go to the wiki and add at least one hard question! The answer will
help Fedora contributors to chose whom to vote for!
Thanks in advance. CU
knurd
(¹) If you haven't read about it yet see
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections for details.
(²) If you want to get involved or review the question before I send
them please drop me a line and I'll get that arranged
