Planning the Fedora Design Suite Spin

Following a FUDCon discuss, Sebastian Dziallas took the initiative[1] with the creation of a Fedora Design Suite Spin "Having had some pretty cool discussion with Diana, Mel and Mo in the hackroo... hospitality suite at FUDCon, I've created and uploaded a first build." Mel Chua continued the effort[2] by creating the wiki space[3] and organizing information, while Nicu Buculei[4] and Martin Sourada[5] tried to define the spin target "I think before significant marketing we should clarify the vision and the target, go beyond the generic 'professional designers'. I bet even us, inside the Design Team, have various expectations from a 'perfect' spin." Sebastian worked on preparing the spin for official submission[6] "I'll try to get everything ready by tomorrow to submit it to the wrangler, so that we can at least mention it at the Spin SIGs meeting already."

Graphic Concepts for Fedora 13

Durin the winter holidays a number of graphic concepts for the Fedora 13 theme were advanced: Máirín Duffy advanced[1] a "Swirly Stars" concept[2], Brian Hurren proposed[3] the "fedora galaxy" design[4], Luya Tshimbalanga came[5] with a "Starlines" study[6] and Samuele Storari sketched[7] a "Goddard rocket" design[8]. The images and their evolution should be found in the dedicated development wiki page[9].
