New channel on freenode called #fedora-fad

Gerold Kassube announced[1] the new IRC-Channel #fedora-fad which is opened right now for everybody to attend a FAD (== Fedora Activity Day) online. Gerold mentioned, “I created that channel, because of some people asked (also in the past) about who cann't attend a FAD. The next FAD in EMEA takes place (again and by tradition) in Rheinfelden, Germany on the next weekend [2]. ”

Poel also mentioned, “I will raise feature pages not at 100% at FESCo's meeting on October 2, 2009. Hopefully my job will be easy and there there won't be any.”
