Fedora 23 for POWER is here!

Recommended Posts

Fedora 23 for POWER released

============================

 

It's (approximately) Halloween, so you know what that means — new

Fedora! The Fedora 23 release is here, and it's better than ever

before. We're pleased to bring you the latest incarnations of the two

main Fedora editions on POWER — Fedora Cloud, and Fedora Server,

each built with love by the Fedora community to custom-fit your

needs in different areas.

 

If that's all you need to hear, download from

https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/23/

or if you already use Fedora, follow the simple upgrade steps at

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading.

 

Otherwise, read on for details.

 

 

Fedora Server

------------

 

Fedora Server makes service management simple with RoleKit, a

programmatic interface for quick deployment, and Cockpit, a remote web

GUI. Now in Fedora Server 23, you can manage Kubernetes clusters from

the Cockpit Admin Console, or launch a FreeIPA domain controller from a

kickstart file. Get Fedora Server this morning and have an identity

management solution in place by lunchtime.

Fedora Cloud

------------

 

Build scale-out computing with Fedora Cloud. The Fedora Cloud Base

image provides a minimal OS platform which can be downloaded for use in

OpenStack.

Updated Components

------------------

 

As with every Fedora release, almost every component has a new version,

with improvements across the board.

 

Fedora 23 also has important under-the-hood security improvements, with

increased hardening for all compiled software and with insecure SSL3

and RC4 protocols disabled. We've also updated all of the software

installed by default in Fedora Cloud Base Image and to use

Python version 3, and the Mono .NET compatible framework is now

at version 4.

 

Perhaps most importantly, Unicode 8.0 support now enables the crucial

U1F32D character.

Contributing

------------

 

We hope you're as excited as we are about Fedora 23 and look forward to

exploring it yourself. Don't forget — Fedora never stands still as

we're always working towards a new and better release by sharing our

work with the world. Want to be part of the fun? It's easy to get

involved. There are many ways to contribute to Fedora, even if it's

just bug reporting. You can also help translate software and content,

test and give feedback on software updates, write and edit

documentation, design and do artwork, help with all sorts of

promotional activities, and package free software for use by millions

of Fedora users worldwide.
