Fedora 16 (Verne) is available for download and update.
On FTP , images for downloading a new release of the most experimental of all Linux distributions have already appeared.
For the Russians, the release of the remix will probably be more interesting - Russian Fedora Remix.
The next release is the 16th serial number and the name of the famous writer Jules Verne . In addition to changing the logo, users of the “Russian remix” are available out of the box proprietary codecs, Abobe Flash, video card drivers, WiMAX drivers for Yota modems, and much more.
Major new release:
1. Kickstart scripts that will automate the installation or upgrade of already outdated versions to the current one (after all, who has not forgotten that the release support period is only one year?)
2. LibreOffice is available on disk images instead of OO.org (in the original F16 there is neither the one nor the other), which was made possible by the introduction of xz packet compression.
3. In the installation script, you can choose the target environment GNOME, KDE4, Xfce, Lxde, which will allow you to install only the minimally necessary packages at once, without the need to select the required manually.
4. Render fonts compiled with Ubuntu patches and proprietary sub-pixel compression (not in the original F16)
and much more.
And for those who do not like such an innovative (yes, the fashionable word is now :) approach, the Russian Remix development team announces the RussianEnterpriseLinux project based on the SL6.1 distribution (unfortunately CentOS, which was originally planned for the donor role, has recently been updated too slow and stuck on version 6.0) and targeted specifically at workstations, not server platforms. Improvements are the same as in RFRemix, but we wish the new undertaking success, and the developers do not stop there!
