Fedora 11 Podcast Series #3 - General Overview of F11 with Tom 'Spot' 
Callaway


Continuing on in our series of Fedora 11 podcasts, we present an
interview of the series with Tom 'Spot' Callaway.  In case you don't
know Spot, he's been making Fedora happen since before Fedora was
called Fedora.  Spot is a Red Hat Engineer, the Fedora Engineering
Manager, and of course an active and knowledgeable community member.
With keen insights and an eagle-eye view of the Fedora release
process, the community, and our history and roadmap, you can be sure
that any chat with Spot is worth your while.

In the interview, Spot covers much ground, with everything from
features in the upcoming release such as 20 Second Startup
[http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/20SecondStartup] and Kernel
Mode Setting
[https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/KernelModesetting] to the
future Fedora artists movement.  Spot also talks about the importance
and benefit of Fedora's upstream oriented developer process, the
recent enhancements to Fedora's QA process, and the addition of
members to the Fedora QA team.  Finally Spot takes a nostalgic trip
down Memory Lane, with a discussion of the long history behind Fedora,
what he thinks Fedora as a community has to offer contributors, and
why Fedora is the very best place to be.
