In Ambassador news, an event report for the Cerea Fair contributed by several people from Italy that drew 20,000, including blog postings and photos. In news from the Design team, details on preparation for Fedora 13 Alpha, with upcoming decisions this week on Fedora 13 wallpaper, and coverage of some ideas for Fedora 13 overall designs.
