Fedora 11

We're getting very close to the Fedora 11 release, and excitement is building.

Jesse Keating^[1] announced^[2] that we are now frozen for Fedora 11. "We've reached the final freeze, as well as mass branched. From this point on, builds from F-11/ will go to dist-f11-updates-candidate and builds from devel/ will go to dist-f12. dist-f11 itself is locked."

John Poelstra^[3] gave a final reminder^[4] to feature owners whose features are not at 100%. "Feature freeze has past and the following feature pages still need updates. Some have not been updated for several months. All need to be at 100% completion and their content set to reflect that."

-Jesse Keating<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JesseKeating</ref> made two announcements regarding Fedora 11.
+We're getting very close to the Fedora 11 release, and excitement is building.
-First<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2009-April/msg00003.html</ref>, the F11-Beta-x86_64-Live-KDE.iso was re-issued on bittorrent as well as to the mirors.  The image was "accidentally composed with 32bit packages instead of 64bit packages".  Furthermore, the Source ISOs were re-issued on torrent only, where "an older set were

-Next<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-announce-list/2009-April/msg00004.html</ref>, Fedora 11 Snapshot 1 was released to the torrent site, and it provides "the first and final snapshot before our final devel freeze".  Jesse reminded everyone that "lots of work has gone into the storage code of Anaconda since the Beta release, please do re-test with these images if you had difficulty installing the Beta".
+John Poelstra<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JohnPoelstra</ref> gave a final reminder<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-announce/2009-April/msg00007.html</ref> to feature owners whose features are not at 100%.  "Feature freeze has past and the following feature pages still need updates.

-'''The final development freeze<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-announce/2009-April/msg00001.html</ref> for Fedora 11 is on Tuesday April 14th.'''  John Poelstra<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JohnPoelstra</ref> reminded the community "that all features and their associated feature pages must be at 100% completion by this date", and he listed the features that do not meet this criteria, which includes several of the more prominent features that are scheduled for the release.  '''If you are trying to get a feature in to Fedora 11, please make sure you have completed all necessary steps.'''
