-[[MairinDuffy|Máirín Duffy]] found<ref>http://mairin.wordpress.com/2010/06/26/some-geeky-comics/</ref> a bunch of amusing geeky comic strips. But more seriously, Máirín identified<ref>http://mairin.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/first-fedora-design-ninja-identified/</ref> the first "Fedora Design Bounty Ninja". "Jef responded to our first Fedora Design Bi-Weekly Bounty just a couple of hours after it was posted, and he did an amazing job putting together a 6-page layout for the Fedora 13 feature profiles, carefully adhering to all of the Fedora branding guidelines and providing all of his source work!"

-[[User:Ajamison|Andrew Vermilya Jamison]] outled<ref>http://blogs.andyjamison.com/andy/2010/06/26/fedora-13-way-more-then-hype-part-2-general-usability/</ref> a few of the exciting new features of Fedora 13.
+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.
-[[User:Lennart|Lennart Poettering]] suggested<ref>http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/ids.html</ref> a number of sources of data that could be used under Linux to help generate unique identifiers. "When programming software that cooperates with software running on behalf of other users, other sessions or other computers it is often necessary to work with unique identifiers. These can be bound to various hardware and software objects as well as lifetimes. Often, when people look for such an ID to use they pick the wrong one because semantics and lifetime or the IDs are not clear."

-Lennart also wrote<ref>http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/locking.html</ref> a<ref>http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/locking2.html</ref> pair of articles on handling locking under Linux (and the sad state of locking under Linux in general).
-[[LuisVilla|Luis Villa]] dissected<ref>http://tieguy.org/blog/2010/06/28/first-thoughts-on-bilski/</ref> the US Supreme Court Bilski ruling. "I'm afraid that at the end of this brief train ride, my only firm conclusion can be that the real winners here are patent lawyers - this decision creates no new certainties, only uncertainties, which will encourage patenters to spend more money patenting things, and the rest of us to waste time and energy worrying about the problem - time and energy that should have been spent on innovating..."

-The Red Hat Press Office announced<ref>http://press.redhat.com/2010/06/29/introducing-fedora-project-leader-jared-smith/</ref> that [[User:Jsmith|Jared Smith]] will become the new Fedora Project Leader. [[User:Pfrields|Paul W. Frields]] posted<ref>http://marilyn.frields.org:8080/~paul/wordpress/?p=3259</ref> a few words about passing on the baton to Jared.
+[[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.
