This is your friendly reminder that we have reached the Final Change
Deadline for Fedora 15.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Change_deadlines
"After the change deadlines for the Final release no more updates are
made to the branched development repository (e.g.
/pub/fedora/linux/development/15).
The only exceptions are accepted blocker and "nice to have" bugs:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_processhttps://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_nth_bug_process
All updates after this time are considered zero day updates of the
release, and are pushed to the updates repository which is available on
the public availability date. For example, the repository for Fedora 15
is /pub/fedora/linux/updates/15."
The next step in the process is to create a final release candidate (RC)
to pass on to QA for testing as soon as possible. However, we have a
handful of bugs left that are blocking the creation of the RC. Delays
in resolving the bugs listed below will prevent the creation of the RC,
and CAN CAUSE A SLIP IN THE SCHEDULE.

Other menu appears in default installation (any .desktop entry
with Category=Settings ends up here (even if there's also Category=System))

This cycle will also see 5 seats for the Fedora Engineering Steering
Committee to be elected. For information on the nominations and
elections:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FESCo_election_policyhttps://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Development/SteeringCommittee/Nominations
Additionally the nomination period also serves as the time for the
community to present questions to be posed of candidates. If you wish
to ask questions to be answered by candidates, you can add them here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F16_elections_questionnaire
Candidates will have the questions posed to them and responses made
available to the community.
Please take time to consider yourself for one of these positions, and
how you want to continue contributing to Fedora.
