Greetings Feature People,
If all goes as planned the Beta (previously known as "Final Development") Freeze will start this coming Tuesday, September 29, 2009.
Beta Freeze, defined here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Beta_Freeze_Policy means that all features and their associated feature pages must be at 100% completion by this date. The following features are currently not 100% complete and need to be by Tuesday, September 29, 2009. In many cases it appears they are just 1% away :-)

We understand that software is never 100% complete, however given the wide audience that refers to the feature pages it doesn't make sense to advertise something that isn't present.
Please make one last update to your feature page to make it reflect everything that is complete for Fedora 12. Incomplete functionality should be removed or clearly labeled as scheduled for a future release so that what is advertised for being in Fedora 12 is 100% present and complete.
I will raise feature pages not at 100% at FESCo's meeting on October 2, 2009. Hopefully my job will be easy and there there won't be any :-)
Thanks, John
