Hi All,
Apologies for the delayed weekly mail, I enjoyed a lovely four-day
weekend with my family over Easter which was important and didn't get
around to sending this email.
The upside is you get two emails from me this week instead :)

IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS.Check out our teams
