Removal of sendmail from @standard didn't pass. Note: About @standard group might be decided in next release of Fedora. * No Default Syslog - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NoDefaultSyslog discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185329.html Remove rsyslog from @core, move to @standard pending revaluation in future. * Change Packaging Guidelines to discourage requires into /bin and /sbin - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/NoBinDeps discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185632.html FESCo agreed to defer to FPC to figure out the right thing to do here, reevaluate if this needs to be handled as a Change later = Self Contained Changes = * Vagrant - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Vagrant discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185864.html * GNOME 3.10 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Gnome3.10 discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185381.html * DNSSEC support for FreeIPA - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/IPAv3DNSSEC discussed on http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185626.html * Snapshot and Rollback Tool - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Rollback discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185804.html * Transitive Trusts with Active Directory support for FreeIPA - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/IPAv3TransitiveTrusts discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185634.html * OS Installer Support for LVM Thin Provisioning - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/InstallerLVMThinProvisioningSupport discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185803.html FESCo accepts LVM thinp as a Change and asks to treat usability issues as bugs to be worked out, change documentation from N/A to 'please document in install guide' and speak to maintainers of tools like coreutils. * Enlightenment - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Enlightenment discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/186080.html (announced on 2013-07-18 but without complaints) * Apache OpenOffice - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ApacheOpenOffice discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/ Apache OpenOffice Change is accepted under the condition that the conflicts with libreoffice must be worked out. openoffice and libreoffice packagers get to work them out. There is no Fesco mandate that libreoffice must change to accomodate openoffice at this time. alternatives is not the way to resolve the conflicts but environment-modules may be looked at as a similar means to achieve that. mattdm wants this to be perfectly clear: FESCo does not grant automatic exceptions to our processes on any basis. * X2Go - http://fedoraproject.org//wiki/Changes/X2Go discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185644.html * Sugar 0.100 (1.0) - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Sugar-0.100 discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185808.html * SSSD Smart Card Support - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SSSD_Smart_Card_Support discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185977.html * ACPICA Tools Update - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/AcpicaTools discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185802.html * Developer Assistant GUI - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DeveloperAssistantGUI discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185374.html * Role based access control with libvirt - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Virt_ACLs discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185419.html * SSSD CIFS plugin - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/SSSD_CIFS_plugin discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185376.html * FreeIPA OTP UI - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/IPAv3OTPUI discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185657.html * Ryu Network Operating System - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Ryu discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/184930.html * Plasma-nm - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Plasma-nm discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185649.html
