Final Release
Wed 27-Oct  Tue 02-Nov	Seed/sync mirrors
Tue 02-Nov  Tue 02-Nov	Fedora 14 Final Release (10:00 US Eastern)

With systemd returned to rawhide for further development, F14 should be
quite stable and an uneventful upgrade from F13. It has lots of new
under-the-hood stuff for maintainers and developers. F14 has the new KDE
4.5 desktop, but it's best new user feature may be the SPICE remote
console for virtualized desktops (very cool).

Fedora 15 could be very ambitious. It will have systemd, LibreOffice (or
whatever its new name is), and probably GNOME 2.32. Both F15 and GNOME 3
are due in April 2011. All apps and tools now using the gtk2 toolkit
must be rewritten for gtk3. I'll be pleasantly surprised if F15 includes
GNOME 3.
