themes. Virtualization includes updates of dom0 support in the upstream
kernel, and a RFC on including greater detail in domain events. Finally,

--- Public Fedora Board Meeting on IRC ---
Paul Frields reminded[1] the community about the upcoming Fedora Board
meeting on IRC. The meeting will be on 2008-11-19 (Tuesday) at 19:00 UTC.
"Join #fedora-board-meeting to see the Board's conversation. This
channel is read-only for non-Board members. Join #fedora-board-public to
discuss topics and post questions. This channel is read/write for everyone.
The moderator will direct questions from the #fedora-board-public
channel to the Board members at #fedora-board-meeting. This should limit
confusion and ensure our logs are useful to everyone."

--- Upcoming Bugzilla Activities ---
Jon Stanley wrote[2] about some upcoming Bugzilla changes, that will
coincide with Fedora 10's release. There are two things of which people
should be aware: First, "we will be rebasing all rawhide bugs to F10.
This will result in regular bugs reported against rawhide during the
Fedora 10 development cycle being changed to version '10' instead of
their current assignment, 'rawhide'."; Second, "all bugs for EOL
releases (at this point, Fedora 8) will get a comment on or about GA of
Fedora 10, explaining that one month of maintenance remains, and to
either move the bug to a later version if still applicable, or they will
be automatically closed in one month with a resolution of WONTFIX."
See the link below[2] for the complete announcement.
