Hi Rich,

As of RC2, the update is pushed and Robotics Spin is being built. It would be nice if you can try it to see if it has any apparent problems:

Awesome. I gave it a try with qemu-kvm, it boots and runs fine, minus the gnome-shell experience. I couldn't find the "install to hard drive" icon anywhere in fallback mode, is there a separate package that needs to be installed for that?

A few things:
- I was looking over the kickstart, it looks like there's some utilities like telnet and minicom that were removed in the .ks we based the robotics .ks off of, but would probably be pretty helpful to roboticists. I know I use gtkterm and minicom a lot to talk to sensors, and I can see telnet being helpful. I will add these back; any other suggestions?

- Fawkes currently has some broken deps, so it's commented out of the ks for now. Once f16 is released, we can add it back.

- Should we try to get a page on spins.fedoraproject.org before the release next week? We already have some artwork from the design team, and the Robotics Suite page on the wiki is probably a good starting point for the spins page content. I think we need to make a ticket at [1] with the artwork and content to get that done.
