=== First Look at Fedora 15 Alpha With Gnome Shell (thisweekinlinux.com) ===
=== The 5 most popular Linux distributions ===


[[User:Sundaram|Rahul Sundaram]] forwarded<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2011-March/013742.html</ref> an initial look at Fedora 15 Alpha's Gnome 3 Shell experience:
"...Fedora clearly has its fans. And, if you work on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) development, it's a really wise idea to keep a copy of Fedora on hand so you can see RHEL's future."


"After using this for a day or two at work, watching some of the upgrades that have happened, and showing it to coworkers, I have to say, I’m very pleased so far! Gnome 3 / Gnome Shell is really shaping up to be very useful, and the performance has significantly improved from the last time I used it."

[[User:wonderer|Henrik Heigl]] forwarded<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2011-March/013730.html</ref> an article from the German Pro-Linux.de blog on Fedora 15 Alpha:
"The clock is starting to tick down on the Fedora Linux release with the feature freeze now in place. As such, now is as good a time as any to take a look at some of the new features that are likely to land when Fedora 18 goes live at the end of the year."

"Fedora 15 "Lovelock" Alpha ist eine Vorschau auf die offizielle Version, die bereits alle geplanten Features von Fedora 15 enthält, aber noch nicht notwendigerweise in der endgültigen Form, und nur zum Testen eingesetzt werden sollte. Nach der Korrektur der meisten Fehler der Alphaversion soll am 12. April eine Betaversion veröffentlicht werden, die vom Code her vollständig sein soll.
=== Fedora 18 schedule slips by a week ===


Die Alphaversion kommt mit einer Vorschau auf GNOME 3 sowie den neuesten Versionen von KDE und Xfce. Das neue Init-System systemd wird standardmäßig eingesetzt. Systemd dient auch zur Sitzungsverwaltung. LibreOffice ersetzt OpenOffice.org. Für Unternehmen wurde das Buchhaltungs- und Inventarsystem Tryton hinzugenommen. Das neue Werkzeug BoxGrinder soll es leicht machen, virtuelle Maschinen für Plattformen wie KVM, Xen und Amazon EC2 aus einfachen Definitionsdateien zu erzeugen."  
"At a go/no-go meeting of the Fedora QA Team, the developers decided to postpone the release of the first Fedora 18 alpha by a week. The team unanimously voted to not go forward with the release because of the relatively large number of blocker bugs that are still unresolved."
