[[MichaelDeHaan|Michael DeHaan]] announced on his blog[1] that Func and Certmaster have both just seen new releases.
[[user:jsimon|Joerg Simon]] posted pictures<ref>http://kitall.blogspot.com/2011/11/fudcon-pune-2011-travel-und-event.html</ref> of the event.


"This showcases significantly improved asynchronous support as well as the future of Funcweb. We should also have multi-overlord delegation for extra-large (read: global) setups implemented pretty soon. More releases short start following at greater frequency."

===Fedora Community===


=== Transifex receives some updates ===
The release of Fedora 16 has been the main topic of the blogroll recently, and it's fair to say that it's being greeted with open arms by many of the users.


Diego Búrigo Zacarão wrote on his blog about two improvements to Transifex.
[[user:jjmartinez|Juanjo Martinez]] blogged on his first impressions of F16, calling it an "impressive release"<ref>http://engbblog.wordpress.com/2011/11/08/welcome-fedora-16/</ref>.


"We have a quite stable version of Transifex using:
===General===
    * SQLAlchemy 0.4.6
    * Genshi 0.5
    * ToscaWidgets 0.9.2
    * TurboGears 1.0.4.4"[1]


Also, i18n support in Transifex has been split into two different potfiles[2]. "All strings related with the source code will be stored in the 'po/view/' directory and strings coming from database, into the 'po/data/'."
[[User:adamwill|Adam Williamson]] posted about <ref>http://www.happyassassin.net/2011/11/10/stupid-fedora-tricks/</ref>starting work on Fedora 17, and experimentation with the new kernel in a virtualized environment.

=== New Fedora business cards ===
 
[[IanWeller|Ian Weller]] has been working on a new design for Fedora business cards[1].
 
"List of changes:
 
    * Added “infinity | freedom | voice” to front
    * Added “fedoraproject.org” to front
    * Removed GPG key fingerprint
    * Moved Fedora logo to top and inverse on blue bar
    * Created blue bars at top and bottom
    * Removed back"

=== Bug Triage meeting ===
 
[[JohnPoelstra|John Poelstra]] wrote on his blog[1]:
 
"Our weekly bug triage meeting hasn't happened for several weeks and we'd like to resume them again.  Some of us were tied up with other things and some people were unable to make the time.  Also after having a few meetings with one or two people it seemed unclear how best to proceed.
 
So... we know there are a lot of people interested in bug triage but past meeting attendance hasn't been  good so we'd like to try and fix that.  At least two or three people sign up for the 'fedorabugs' group every day so there is a disconnect there somewhere we need to fix.  And if you think weekly meetings aren’t the way to go and there is a better way to proceed please put it forward."
