Fedora Weekly News Issue 137
=============================


Welcome to Fedora Weekly News Issue 137 for the week ending August 2, 2008.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN/Issue137

Fedora Weekly News keeps you updated with the latest issues, events and
activities in the Fedora community.

We are pleased to present a new beat on Virtualization issues and
developments brought to you by beat writer Dale Bewley. In Developments
we report on "How Maintainers Can Help Reduce XULRunner Breakage". In
Announcements we reveal the Fedora 10 codename. In Artwork we examine
"The Blue Color of Fedora". In Security Advisories, another new beat
authored by David Nalley we run through the week's important updates. We
are also saddened to announce the departure of Thomas Chung from the
editorial chair, but heartened to be working as a new editorial team
consisting of Pascal Calarco, Oisin Feeley and Huzaifa Sidhpurwala.

Josh Boyer informed us[0] that "Cambridge" was the winning name in the
Fedora 10 naming election. Jeremy Katz wrote[1] on his blog that
"Cambridge" was the original Red Hat Linux 10 codename, which was the
release that eventually became Fedora Core 1.
