====Fedora 13 Feature Submission Deadline :: January 26th====
===FEDORA DEVELOPMENT NEWS===
 
Jesse Keating announced,<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2010-January/000552.html</ref> ""It's that time of the release cycle again, to purge the orphans before we get to feature freeze.  Any unblocked orphans will be purged by the feature freeze.  A list of unblocked orphans and the broken deps they would cause is at the end of this email.
 
Taking ownership of an orphan on the devel collection will prevent them from being blocked.  Remember, it is OK to let software die.  Don't view this as a list of things that somebody should pick up if they have the spare time.  Things should only be revived if there are actual users in need of the software.
 
The list of orphan's are: <ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel-announce/2010-January/000552.html</ref>
