Fedora 9 Release Planning Begins

Posted by Michael Larabel on November 09, 2007

While you may have just upgraded to Fedora 8 (Werewolf) planning is already underway for the Fedora 9 release. As Jesse Keating pointed out in a fedora-announce-list message, planning has begun one day after the release of Fedora 8 and there are already 800 new package builds planned. Some of the packages that will most likely appear in Fedora 9 include GNOME 2.22 and X.Org 7.4. In traditional fashion, this next Fedora release should arrive in May of 2008 -- meaning that it will run head-to-head with Ubuntu 8.04 LTS "Hardy Heron". Share your hopes for Fedora 9 in the Phoronix Forums.
