Tip of the hat: Fedora 12 a strong update
A new version of the Fedora Linux distribution was released today.  
Fedora 12, codenamed Constantine, is now available for download.
By Ryan Paul

Red Hat announced today the official release of Fedora 12, the latest 
version of the popular open source Linux distribution. This release 
brings some impressive new features and a lot of much-needed bugfixes. 
It's a strong update that puts the distro on the right track forward and 
addresses the serious installation problems that we encountered when we 
tested Fedora 11.

Fedora 12, codenamed Constantine, brings improved power management, 
performance optimizations, new virtualization enhancements, and a lot of 
other great stuff. A lot of the improvements will boost Fedora's 
suitability for netbooks. A new Moblin spin is available that allows 
users to easily test Moblin's specialized user interface on top of 
Fedora 12.

should not they write "Fedora project announced" rather than "Red Hat
announced" ??? !!!
ars should not make such mistake. We should contact them and request
amendment.

I'd imagine they probably got the word from the Red Hat press release
off the newswire... so technically, it's not incorrect.

The announcement doesn't say Red Hat releases Fedora. It says Fedora
Project releases Fedora. We should send corrections.
