"Dear package maintainers
David Malcolm


This is kind reminder.
====Fedora 14 Beta Change Deadline Reached 2010-09-14==== 
It was software translation deadline on 2010-09-07, and many languages translation have been updated or completed 100%. Please make sure latest translation are picked up for rebuilding packages. It is expected to rebuild all translated packages between 2010-09-07 and 2010-09-14.
John Poelstra
This ensures that all translation work will be included in Beta and GA releases.

"It's that time again!  The Fedora 14 Release Candidate is scheduled for creation one week from this Thursday on 2010-09-16.  That task cannot be completed if we have open blocker bugs (listed below).  The sooner we address these bugs the greater the likelihood we have of having time to fix last minute bugs closer to the RC and ship the Fedora 14 Beta one time.
 
If you are the owner of any of the bugs listed below, your prompt attention and feedback with your assessment and plans in the bugzilla comments would be most helpful.

"When: Friday, 2010-09-10 @ 16:00 UTC (12 PM EDT) Where: #fedora-bugzappers on irc.freenode.net
 
Without these bugs fixed we can't compose the Fedora 14 Beta Release Candidate on 2010-09-16.
 
We'll be discussing these bugs to determine if they meet the criteria, should stay on the list, and are getting the attention they need:

If you are the owner of any of these bugs, kindly update the comments with your feedback as to whether you believe it is a blocker and what your plans for fixing the bug are.
 
Do you have an issue you believe should be fixed before the Fedora 14 Beta ships?  Please consider the following criteria when escalating an issue: <ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_14_Beta_Release_Criteria</ref>

"The Fedora 14 Beta RC compose is scheduled for tomorrow.
 
ALL open bugs on Fedora 14 Blocker list (http://bit.ly/cZKo9K) MUST BE FIXED TODAY or we risk delaying the release.  In other words we are very

FUDCon LATAM 2011 bids

Paul W. Frields[1] on Fri Sep 17 17:53:31 UTC 2010 announced[2],

"The bid period for the next Fedora Users and Developers Conference (FUDCon) in the LATAM region is open, and will remain open for a few more weeks. The bid process for FUDCon is outlined here: [3]

Two bids have already been received for FUDCon at this point, and the process will continue soon with an award, a budget, and an open and transparent planning process: [4] [5]

Bids will continue to be accepted until *September 30, 2010*. Bids must be published on the Fedora wiki, and a URL for the bid sent to the fudcon-planning list: [6]

The majority budget holder, the Community Architecture team, will consult with the bid teams and regional Ambassador leadership, work with the Fedora Project Leader to decide on a location and date, and make an announcement of the next LATAM region FUDCon soon afterward. Decisions for a FUDCon location are made on the basis of many factors, including costs, quality and quantity of bid information provided, facilities available, bid team commitment, and the desire to move FUDCon around a given region where practical.

Once the venue and dates are decided, planning for the LATAM region FUDCon event is expected to happen on the general fudcon-planning list. Planning will include regular, weekly meetings and use of a publicly visible ticket queue. This transparency helps the Fedora community participate; community members can help organizers plan and execute the work that goes into the FUDCon event. That participation can produce a higher quality event that meets or exceeds attendee expectations.

FUDCon is held several times each year around the globe as part of Fedora's premier events strategy. You can read more about Fedora events here: [7]

Please remove 'announce-list' from any replies to this message, since they'll be removed from its moderation queue. Thank you!"
