The following Fedora Project 12-18 Month objectives have been completed. We might still care about these things, but they're not the current focus. For that, see Objectives/

Fedora Modularization (Prototype Phase)

Summary: Deliver a functional implementation of modular Fedora

Objective Lead: Langdon White

Timeframe: Prototype should be available around F25 release, with demos at conferences in early 2017.

Details: Objectives/Fedora Modularization, Prototype Phase



Fedora Modularization (Requirements Phase)

Summary: Requirements-gathering from stakeholders for "Rings" aspect of Fedora.next

Objective Lead: Langdon White

Timeframe: F23 release - Flock; replaced in early 2016 with Objectives/Fedora_Modularization,_Prototype_Phase

Details: Objectives/Fedora Modularization, Requirements Phase

Fedora Editions, Phase 2

Summary: Take the initial Server/Workstation/Cloud split from Fedora 21 from an experiment into solid production. Increase autonomy from FESCo and improve targeted outreach.

Objective Lead: Stephen Gallagher

Timeframe: F22 and F23 releases, ending shortly after Flock 2015.

Details: Objectives/Fedora Editions, Phase 2

Result: Seems very successful. Very positive reviews of Fedora OS in general, and we're starting to see Fedora Server reviewed (while in the prior years Fedora was only positioned in the media as a desktop OS). Working groups are active and building and attracting community contributors. And, we've shipped some different configurations in the different editions, with room for more change in the future as needed.


University Involvement Initiative

Summary: Increase Fedora's exposure in university environments, particularly engineering universities.

Objective Lead: Remy DeCausemaker

Timeframe: 2015-2016 academic year

Details: Objectives/University_Involvement_Initiative

Result: Effort died out; could be restarted but needs new focus.
