+[[user:kishan|Kishan Goyal]] posted on his experience on day 2 at FudCon Pune<ref>http://kishangoyal.co.cc/post/12549697509/fudcon-pune-11-day-2</ref>.
-Starting us off this week is a blast from the past: [[JesusRodriguez|Jesus Rodriguez]] running<ref>http://zeusville.wordpress.com/2010/12/01/os2-warp-4-in-virtualbox/</ref> OS/2 Warp 4 (in VirtualBox).
+[[user:jsimon|Joerg Simon]] posted pictures<ref>http://kitall.blogspot.com/2011/11/fudcon-pune-2011-travel-und-event.html</ref> of the event.
-As part of the process to review Anaconda's user experience, [[MairinDuffy|Máirín Duffy]] noted<ref>http://mairin.wordpress.com/2010/12/02/reinitializing-will-cause-all-data-to-be-lost/</ref> that the "REINITIALIZING WILL CAUSE ALL DATA TO BE LOST!" dialog is both unnecessarily scary and complicated. And this week in Anaconda (#7), [[User:Clumens|Chris Lumens]] also discussed<ref>http://www.bangmoney.org/serendipity/index.php?/archives/161-This-Week-in-Anaconda-7.html</ref> the storage component, specifically how it is tested and using hard disks with different sector sizes.
+[[user:izhar|Izhar Firdaus]] wrote about his experience<ref>http://blog.kagesenshi.org/2011/11/fudcon-pune-2011.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+ShadowLogs%2FFedora+%28%3A%3A+Shadow+Logs%3A%3A+Fedora%29#!/2011/11/fudcon-pune-2011.html</ref> at FudCon, as well as some thoughts on the atmosphere of the event.
-While on the topic of disks, [[User:Sundaram|Rahul Sundaram]] outlined<ref>http://fedoranext.wordpress.com/2010/12/06/buttering-up-fedora-15/</ref> where btrfs is going (hint: one day you will likely see it as the default filesystem in Fedora). And the days of naming ethernet interfaces <tt>ethX</tt> may be coming to an end<ref>http://fedoranext.wordpress.com/2010/12/07/a-lesson-in-persistency/</ref>. "Starting in Fedora 15, Ethernet ports on servers will have a new naming scheme corresponding to physical locations, rather than ethX."
+[[user:suchakra|Suchakra]] also blogged on Fudcon Pune<ref>http://suchakra.wordpress.com/2011/11/10/fudcon%e2%86%94funcon-pune-2011/</ref>.
-[[User:Rjones|Richard W.M. Jones]] explained<ref>http://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/12/02/tip-uploading-and-downloading/</ref> how you can use libguestfs, guestfish and its toolset to easily move files between host and guest systems.
+[[user:kushal|Kushal Das]] posted photos<ref>http://kushaldas.in/2011/11/10/photoset-from-fudcon-pune-2011/</ref> of the event to his blog.
+===Fedora Community===
-[[User:Adamwill|Adam Williamson]] reported<ref>http://www.happyassassin.net/2010/12/03/unity-on-fedora-possibly/</ref> that you may soon be able to install Unity on Fedora. "Why? Well, a few reasons. Mainly, Unity’s an interesting project. I want to look at it and compare it to GNOME Shell and I think quite a few others do too, so it seems nice to package it so you can run both on Fedora..." Adam followed-up<ref>http://www.happyassassin.net/2010/12/08/unity-hardware-failures-and-f15-qa/</ref> with some more technical details.
+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.
-[[BryanClark|Bryan Clark]] mentioned<ref>http://clarkbw.net/blog/2010/12/08/thunderbird-conversations/</ref> that there is now an experimental Thunderbird extension that can display conversations in a similar way to Gmail.
+[[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>.
-[[User:Jcm|Jon Masters]] suggested<ref>http://www.jonmasters.org/blog/2010/12/15/opinion-fedora-needs-an-architect/</ref> that perhaps the Fedora Project needs a Technical Architect. "FESCo should appoint a person as their technical representative who speaks for overall system architecture concerns. The person in this role should actively seek out compatibility or integration problems but should also be a “go to” person for concerns that arise in the interests of distribution cohesion."
+===General===
-The Fedora Board had its 13 December meeting and posted<ref>http://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/board/?p=3</ref> the minutes on their new blog site.
+[[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.
