Fedora 14 Preview: What's New in Fedora 14? (Linux.com)
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] a post from Linux.com on the feature set forthcoming in Fedora 14:
"But when you first read the list of features highlighted for Fedora 14, you might think the release is targeting developers. What with new and updated programming languages, simpler and faster debugging, and better developer tools the feature list looks like the only users would be those that actually develop the distribution or applications for the distribution.
Not so. Fedora 14 offers a well-rounded list of new features that should make this release appeal to a wide range. And since it's now in Alpha, we can all take a close look at what's coming. I did just that...and I was very impressed."

Spicy Fedora 14 Adds New Linux Flavor (LinuxPlanet)
Kara Schiltz forwarded[1] an article discussing innovations in Fedora 14 beta:
"The Red Hat sponsored Fedora Linux community distribution is out this week with the first beta of the Fedora 14 release. The new distribution updates key applications and introduces new security and virtualization capabilities as well as support for the latest open source programming languages.
"A lot of the features in Fedora 14 are more under-the-covers type plumbing that needed to be done," Jared Smith, Fedora Project Leader, told /InternetNews.com/. "There are not a lot of new desktop-centric features in this release.
One new feature that desktop users may benefit from is the SPICE virtualization support included in Fedora 14. SPICE, the Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environment, is technology that Red Hat gained as part of its acquisition of Qumranet [2] in 2008."
