Public Money: Public Code
by Natale Vinto
Hello,
my name is Natale, and I write you here in order to ask you if Fedora
could be formally interested to join and sign the campaign "Public
Money Public Code" launched by FSFE [1], which aim is to promote and
support by the law the binomial between publicly funded software and
Free & Open Source software. [2]
Together with other supporting organisations [3], the FSFE is spreading this
concept through an open letter [4] to be signed by worldwide citizens,
addressed to their respective countries legislators.
At the moment, I don't see Fedora in that list [3], while there are
also distro like Debian and OpenSuse.
Do you think this initiative could be interesting also for Fedora and
Fedora People?
Operating systems are at the base of software development, joining
those folks for this particular aspect looks nice :)
What do you think about?
Thanks
Cheers,
Natale

[Fedocal] Reminder meeting : Council (Open Floor)
by mattdm@fedoraproject.org
Dear all,
You are kindly invited to the meeting:
Council (Open Floor) on 2017-10-25 from 09:00:00 to 10:00:00 US/Eastern
At fedora-meeting(a)irc.freenode.net
The meeting will be about:
The Fedora Council will hold our regular Open Floor meeting at 9:00am
US/Eastern in #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net. All are welcome!
To convert to your local time, run:
TZ=US/Eastern date -d '9am tomorrow'
Open Floor meetings happen every other week. They do not have a
preset agenda. Instead, we spend the first few minutes of the
meeting deciding what topics will be discussed. If
attendees — Council members and otherwise — have several topics
of general interest, the primary meeting chair (usually the FPL
or FCAIC) will put them in order, and after a certain amount of
time discussing the first, ask if it's time to move on.

Resigning from Fedora Council (F26 cycle)
by Justin W. Flory
Hello all,
After deep consideration, I am resigning from my Fedora Council position
early at the end of the Fedora 26 release cycle, opening a new Council
seat for a half-term in the next election.
I published a blog post that explains why I made this decision and what
happens in the next election.
https://blog.justinwflory.com/2017/10/resigning-fedora-council/
It was humbling to be elected to represent the community. I appreciate
the community's trust to elect me into this position and hope that I
have been able to fulfill that commitment despite resigning early.
Thanks everyone.
