Summary
Features
- Stronger Hashes - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/StrongerHashes
Many FESCo members were concerned with breaking preupgrade and yum upgrades from f9->f11. The feature owner was directed to see if this could be avoided and revisit the feature next week.
- Architecture Support - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ArchitectureSupport
FESCo tabled this to revisit this next week. There were questions about OLPC support and LSTP client machines. Discussion to continue on fedora-devel list.
- Crash catcher - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/CrashCatcher
FESCo has approved this feature.
- SystemTap Static Probes - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SystemtapStaticProbes
FESCo has approved this feature.
FESCo has approved this feature.
- vmware-requirements, and other 'crutch-for-proprietary-software' packages
FESCo has decided this is not acceptable content for Fedora.
- FESCo needs to determine whether ovm is acceptable content
FESCo re-iterated that this content is fine for Fedora, but something in Fedora should be able to use it before adding it to the repository. Providing it without a way to use it would be a bad user experience.
Special Session
FESCo will meet in special session next week to review features. Time and date to be determined.
