<p><br></p><p>The newest release of the Red Hat-sponsored Fedora Linux distribution
 includes a number of technologies that haven't made their way into Red 
Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) yet, including a new version of the 
OpenStack cloud platform, code-named Essex, that the company plans to 
adopt in future editions of its flagship distribution.</p>

<p>Fedora 17, released Monday, also includes the latest version of the Gnome -- version 3.4 -- as the default user interface.</p>

<p>Overall, this release contains <a href="http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/17/html/Release_Notes/" target="_blank">an unusually substantial number</a>
 of new features, programs and improvements, said Robyn Bergeron, Fedora
 project leader. "We have a new release every six months. Sometimes 
there are fewer 
features, but I think this release has the largest number of new 
features we've ever had," she said.</p>
