From notting at redhat.com Mon Jul 21 14:03:38 2003 From: notting at redhat.com (Bill Nottingham) Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2003 10:03:38 -0400 Subject: Announcing a beta release of Red Hat Linux: Severn Message-ID: <20030721100338.A701@devserv.devel.redhat.com> Thank you gentlemen. This is rumor control. Here are the facts. As some of you know, new Red Hat Linux Beta bits crash landed here at 1000 on the morning watch. There was one survivor. Two dead processes, and a daemon that was hopelessly smashed beyond repair. The survivor is called SEVERN. It's that time again. (Time to floss?) (Time to make a gooky?) No, it's time for a Red Hat Linux Beta, named SEVERN. "I just want to say that I took a vow of stability. That also includes betas. We all took the vow. Now let me say, that I for one, do not appreciate Company policy allowing beta bits to freely intermingle..." "Cheeky bastard, right sir?" "What brother means to say is ... We view the presence of any outside OS, beta, as a violation of the stability, a potential break in the spiritual unity." We are well aware of your feelings in this matter. You will be pleased to know that I have requested a testing team - Hopefully, they will be here inside of a few hours and evaluate it A.S.A.P. As always, betas such as SEVERN are not intended for use on production environments. Use as such could lead to your machines being slaughtered like pigs by the dragon. Or just public laughter. Problems with SEVERN should be reported via bugzilla, at: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/ What's its development status? "It doesn't seem too horrendously in flux. Difficult at this moment to make a specific diagnosis." Among other things, SEVERN has: - a new graphical boot - GCC 3.3 - an updated 2.4.21 kernel - updated Evolution and Mozilla - and more! Will it live? "Yes, I should think so." Look, none of us here is naive. It's in everybody's best interests if this beta doesn't come out into production until the testing team is through with it. And certainly not without the proper qualification and bug reports. Right? So we should all stick to our set routines and not get unduly agitated. Correct? All right. Thank you gentlemen. Speaking of unduly agitated... there's lots of rumors going on about Red Hat Linux. We've been doing it for nearly ten years now, and in that time, there's been various changes. From rpp to RPM, from Red Hat Commercial Linux to Official Red Hat Linux, from 'install' to anaconda. And now, we're making another change. We changed the rules. We said our Linux should be your Linux. Just as most of the software in Red Hat Linux is developed in an open fashion, so should Red Hat Linux itself; driven by those who develop, test, document, and translate. To accomplish this, we're opening up our process. Now this is an evolution, not a revolution. The first steps will be moving much of our development discussions and schedules external, via mailing lists and other means, and including external developers in the process of making technical decisions. More will be done from there. Red Hat Linux will remain as it has been; a freely available general purpose operating system, released on the average every six months. For more information, see: http://rhl.redhat.com/ For discussion of SEVERN, send mail to: rhl-beta-list-request at redhat.com with subscribe in the subject line. You can leave the body empty.

We have code to put a pretty icon under the left nav bar if a PDF exists for the page. There isn't code right now to put an icon for a tarball, and I think it would be better to spend time on the PDF production.

Some things I noticed - the source for the rhl development guide isn't in there, I wanted to add a patch to mention pserver for anonymous access. Is there any possibility that this will be added?

I'll move the Developer's Guide and the Documentation Guide there tomorrow. Moving them and changing the CVS chapter to mention pserver has been on my list of things to do this week. I just haven't gotten to them yet. ;-) Cheers, Tammy On Wed, Jul 23, 2003 at 08:51:06AM +0100, Paul Nasrat wrote: > Now that pserver access is up I've checked out the rhlp-docs project for > a quick peek. > > Some things I noticed - the source for the rhl development guide isn't > in there, I wanted to add a patch to mention pserver for anonymous > access.
