Announcing Fedora 23

Fedora Project is pleased to announce the immediate release of Fedora 23, the latest incarnation of our community-built Linux-based operating system.

A year ago, we had our first release to feature three different editions — Fedora Server, Fedora Cloud, and Fedora Workstation — each custom-fit for your needs in these different areas. Now, we're pleased to bring you the latest versions of each of these.

Fedora Cloud

Needs details from Cloud WG

Fedora Server

Fedora Workstation

If you're a laptop or home user, hobbyist, enthusiast, student, or a software developer, Fedora Workstation is perfect for you. Fedora Workstation includes the newest release of the GNOME desktop, which makes your everyday computing simple, polished, and pleasant. Experience the sleek interface and powerful tools for yourself -- download Fedora Workstation now!


Spins, Labs, and ARM

Other changes of note

Every software written in Python shipped by default on Fedora Workstation DVD and Fedora Cloud images is now running on Python3. Fedora Workstation doesn't even include Python2 in the default installation (it is still possible to install Python2 through dnf). Note that /usr/bin/python binary remains unchanged and still points to Python2.
