Whats a 'happy turkey day'
david
American holiday celebrating the Pilgrims good fortunes. Traditional
main course is a turkey. Lots of food, lots of eating, lots of
football, lots of good times. Also, traditional start of holiday season
with lots of travel.
Looks like a lot of Fedora folks were active today with FC5T1
installing, testing, bug reporting, etc. It's 1:11 AM Friday here and
am still at it trying to find all of the bugs.
Have a happy Down Under.
