Fedora 9

Fedora users are waiting for the offensive on May 13th. It is on that day that the final release of the ninth version of this wonderful distribution is scheduled. Honestly, I did not like the beta. It was very unstable, although when I put the beta of the eighth version, I immediately liked it and I used it until the update to release came out.
Fedora 9 Preview Release was released on April 17th. 22 numbers are expected to be Release Candidate 1. Finally, May 13, 2008 - Fedora 9 final release.
Innovations:
- Inclusion in the KDE 4 distribution;
Use PackageKit as an alternative package management shell;
- Using RandR 1.2 (X Resize and Rotate Extension) capabilities in the Fedora configuration GUI to configure output device parameters without restarting the X server;
- Improving NetworkManager, for example, working with mobile devices via BlueTooth, supporting more than one device, setting up a system-wide configuration via PolicyKit;
- Reorganization of the principles of volume control to use PulseAudio;
- Create a LiveCD with a selection of astronomical software;
- GNOME 2.22 and the integration of the revised GDM (GNOME Display Manager);
- Presto - binary “delta” updates, in which only changed binary data is included in the package.
- Increased performance and reduced memory consumption in RPM and Yum;
- Replacing teTeX with TeXLive;
- Wevisor - web-interface for the LiveCD layout;
