FWN 287: status
by Pascal Calarco
Folks, its been a few weeks since we last had a Fedora Weekly News out the door. What is everyone's capacity to work on a beat for the next issue within the next 2-3 days?
I've completed my two beats, covering security advisories for the past three weeks.
Runa, we have not had a Translation beat in a long time. Could you give us an update on whether you can be active with this beat again?
Many thanks, everyone!

--- Upcoming elections for FAmSCo, FESCo, and the Fedora Board ---
Fedora Project Leader, Jared K. Smith announced[1]:
"One of the things I like most about Fedora is the orderly way in which people are able to move in and out of leadership positions within our community. Each development cycle, we have a set of elections for the steering committees and for the Fedora Board. The next election cycle is nearly upon us, so I'd like to take this opportunity to share the details of the upcoming elections with you.
As quick reminder, the nomination period for this election cycle will open on 25 October 2011, and will close promptly on 5 November 2011 at 23:59:59 UTC. The full elections schedule, along with more details about the elections, can be found at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections
I strongly encourage you to consider running for an open position in one of the elections. This is one way to serve your fellow community members and help move Fedora forward at the same time. Additionally, I'm looking for a few volunteers to help with the coordination of the candidate questionnaires and town hall meetings. If you're willing to help, please let me know.
Fedora Board
This election cycle will fill two elected seats for the Board (seats E1 and E2). Prior to the election I will also announce the first of two appointed seat in this cycle (seats A1 and A2), with the second appointment announcement to follow after the election. For more information on nominations, and the process refer to:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board_nominations
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/Elections
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Board/History
FESCo
This cycle will also see four candidates elected to open seats in the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. For information on the nominations and elections:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FESCo_election_policy
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Development/SteeringCommittee/Nominations
FAmSCo
This election cycle will also see candidates elected to fill all all seven seats on the Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee. For more information, refer to:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAmSCo_election_rules
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAmSCo_elections
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAmSCo_election_2011_nominations
Candidate Questionnaire and Town Hall meetings
Additionally, the nomination period also serves as the time for the community to present questions to be posed to candidates. If you wish to ask questions to be answered by candidates, you can add them[2]. Candidates will have the questions posed to them and responses made available to the community before the voting period begins.
As we get closer to the elections, we will try to schedule several Town Hall Meetings in IRC to help you get to know the candidates better, and to ask them additional questions.
As always, I'm thankful to those who have given their time, talents, and abilities to serve the Fedora community.
-- Jared Smith Fedora Project Leader"

--- Subsidy requests for FUDCon Blacksburg are now OOOOOPEN! ---
Robyn Bergeron announced[1]
"Greetings, FUDCon friends, near and far:
As you are probably aware, the 2012 North American FUDCon will be held in Blacksburg, Virginia, on the campus of Virginia Tech. If you are planning on attending, it's never too early to pre-register, and to start thinking about your travel plans. FUDCon Blacksburg will take place January 13-15, 2012.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Blacksburg_2012
I'm happy to announce that we are officially accepting subsidy requests for travel to Blacksburg. If you are requesting a subsidy, we just have a few steps that we ask you to follow:
1: Register[2] on the FUDCon: Blacksburg wiki page in the pre-registration area. 2: Put an X in the $$$ column. 3: Create a funding request ticket in the FUDCon trac[3]
General information about being sponsored can be found at:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Sponsoring_event_attendees
Requests are processed in a first-come, first-served manner, though generally prioritization is giving to local travel over international travel first. Requests will be reviewed by fellow Fedora community members at FUDCon subsidy request meetings over the next few weeks.
The first subsidy meeting will take place on Wednesday, November 9th. The time and IRC channel will be announced as we approach that day.
As always, participation both in planning as well as subsidy granting is ALWAYS welcome. Please join us on the fudcon-planning mailing list for information about meetings, as well as for general FUDCon updates, and see the "meetings" section of your FUDCon's wiki page for meeting information.

Subject: IMPORTANT: Mandatory password and ssh key change by 2011-11-30
Kevin Fenzi announced[1]:
"All existing users of the Fedora Account System (FAS)[2] are required to change their password and upload a NEW ssh public key before 2011-11-30. Failure to do so may result in your account being marked inactive. Passwords changed and NEW ssh public keys uploaded after 2011-10-10 will meet this requirement.
Backgound and reasoning:
This change event has NOT been triggered by any specific compromise or vulnerability in Fedora Infrastructure. Rather, we believe, due to the large number of high profile sites with security breaches in recent months, that this is a great time for all Fedora contributors and users to review their security settings and move to "best practices" on their machines. Additionally, we are putting in place new rules for passwords to make them harder to guess.
New Password Rules:
Nine or more characters with lower and upper case letters, digits and
punctuation marks.
Ten or more characters with lower and upper case letters and digits.
Twelve or more characters with lower case letters and digits
Twenty or more characters with all lower case letters.
No maximum length.
Some Do's and Don'ts:
NEVER store your ssh private key on a shared or public system.
ALWAYS use a strong passphrase on your ssh key.
If you must store passwords, use an application specifically for this
purpose like revelation, gnome-keyring, seahorse, or keepassx.
Regularly apply your operating system's security related updates.
Only use ssh agent forwarding when needed ( .ssh/config:
"ForwardAgent no")
DO verify ssh host keys via dnssec protected dns. ( .ssh/config:
"VerifyHostKeyDNS yes")
DO consider a seperate ssh key for Fedora Infrastructure.
Work with and use security features like SELinux and iptables.
Review the Community Standard Infrastructure security document (link
below)
Q&A:
Q: My password and ssh private key are fine and secure! Can't I just skip this change?
No. We believe the new guidelines above provide an added measure of security compared to the previous requirements. We want all users of our infrastructure to follow the new guidelines to improve one aspect of security across the systems they share. Awareness is also an aspect of good security. By requiring these changes, we also hope to maintain and improve awareness of the process for changing passwords and keys.
Q: Can I just change my password and re-upload my same ssh public key? Or upload a bogus ssh public key and then re-upload my old one?
A: No. We've installed safeguards to ensure that your new ssh public key is different from your old one. Additionally, some of our contributors may have had accounts on compromised high profile Linux sites recently, and we want to make sure no ssh private keys or passwords used in Fedora Infrastructure were obtained via those incidents.
Q: This is a hassle. How often is this going to happen?
A: The last mass password change in Fedora was more than 3 years ago. Absent a triggering event, these mass changes will be infrequent.
Q: The new password length requirements/rules are too strict. How will I remember passwords that are that long?
A: You can employ a password storage application (see above), or use a method like diceware (see below), or construct a memorable sentence or phrase.
Q: How do I generate a new ssh key? How do I use it for just Fedora hosts?
A: See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cryptography and use a ~/.ssh/config file to match fedoraproject.org hosts for that key.
Q: I never uploaded a ssh key to the Fedora Account System, nor am I in a group that needs one, do I still have to upload a new one?
A: No. If you don't have a ssh public key uploaded or desire to do so, you can just change your password.

--- Announcing the release of Fedora 16 Beta!! ---
Dennis Gilmore announced[1]:
"Mark your calendars, and get ready to go exploring: The release of Fedora 16, codenamed "Verne," is scheduled for release in early November. Fedora is the leading edge, free and open source operating system that continues to bring everyone fresh, innovative features with each release, delighting users worldwide every six months.
We are proud to announce the availability of the Beta release of Fedora 16.
Come see why we love Fedora so much. We are betting you will, too. Download it now:
http://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease?anF16b
---- What is the Beta Release? ----
The Beta release is the last important milestone of Fedora 16. Only critical bug fixes will be pushed as updates leading to the general release of Fedora 16 in early November. We invite you to join us in making Fedora 16 a solid release by downloading, testing, and providing your valuable feedback.
Of course, this is a beta release, meaning that some problems may still be lurking. A list of the problems we already know about is found at the Common F16 bugs page, seen here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F16_bugs
---- Features ----
This release of Fedora includes a variety of features both over and under the hood that show off the power and flexibility of the advancing state of free software. Examples include:
---- System Boot. Fedora 16 introduces GRUB2, the long-awaited next-generation boot-loader for Linux. GRUB2 automatically recognizes other operating systems, supports LVM2 and LUKS partitions, and is more customizable than the previous version. In this release, only x86 systems with a BIOS uses GRUB2 by default. Work is ongoing for making GRUB2 the default for other architectures and systems.
---- Services Management. Fedora 15 introduced the Systemd services management program. This release features better integration of Systemd via conversion to native systemd services from legacy init scripts in many software components -- for desktop users, this means faster boot times; for system administrators it means more powerful management of services.
---- Desktop Updates. The two major desktop environments have been updated to the latest releases: KDE Software Compilation 4.7 and GNOME 3.1 development release.
---- SELinux Enhancements. SELinux policy package now includes a
pre-built policy that will only rebuild policy if any customizations have been made. A sample test run shows 4 times speedup on installing the package from 48 Seconds to 12 Seconds and max memory usage from 38M to 6M. In addition to that, SELinux file name transition allows better policy management. For instance, policy writers can take advantage of this and write a policy rule that states, if a SELinux unconfined process creates a file named resolv.conf in a directory labelled etc_t, the file should get labeled appropriately. This results is less chances of mislabeled files. Also, from this release onwards, selinuxfs is mounted at /sys/fs/selinux instead of in /selinux. All the affected components including anaconda, dracut, livecd-tools and policycoreutils have been modified to work with this change.
System Accounts. Fedora now standardizes on login.defs as
authority for UID/GID space allocation, and has moved boundary between system and user accounts from 500 to 1000 to match conventions followed by several other Linux distributions. Upgrading from a existing release will not be affected by this change and you can use kickstart to override this change during installation if necessary.
---- HAL Removal. HAL, a hardware abstraction layer which has been a deprecated component for several releases, has been completely removed from all Fedora spins and DVD. Software components using HAL have moved over to using udisks and upower as well as libudev for device discovery. This results in faster system bootup and faster startup for applications depending on device discovery.
---- Cloud Updates. Fedora now includes a number of new and improved features to support cloud computing, including HekaFS, a "cloud ready" version of GlusterFS, including additional auth*/crypto/multi-tenancy; pacemaker-cloud, application service high availability in a cloud environment; and IaaS implementations such as Aeolus and OpenStack.
---- Virtualization. Once again Fedora raises the bar on virtualization support, including expanded virtual network support, an improved Spice for managing virtual machines, restored Xen support, a new virtual machine lock manager, and improved ability to browse guest file systems.
---- Developer Improvements. Developers get many goodies with Verne,
including updated Ada, Haskell and Perl environments, a new Python plugin for GCC and a number of new and improved APIs.
And that's only the beginning. A more complete list and details of all the new features in Fedora 16 is available here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/16/FeatureList
We have nightly composes of alternate spins available here:

---- Remaining F16 blockers and F16 planning (2011-10-26) ----
Adam Williamson announced[1]:
"Hey, folks. This mail brought to you by my ever-increasing empty liquor bottle collection and ever-receding hairline.
We unfortunately still have open blockers today, which means we will likely do a TC3 compose tonight instead of RC1. The remaining unaddressed blockers are:
1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=668282 "PackageKit yum backend uses incorrect encoding for dynamic category names, makes them show up with '?' characters in KPackageKit"
Nils reported that he would complete work on this today, but has not checked in today at all. This leaves us somewhat stuck, as only Richard Hughes and Nils are really qualified to work on this. Richard is away this week.
2. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731245 "KDE fails to start inside a VM , large amount of memory [@ miCopyRegion]"
Soren fixed the initial issue, but KDE on qxl still doesn't really work correctly. Details and logs are in the latest comments on the bug, and I'm currently uploading a live image for convenient reproduction. Again, contributions are welcome here.
3. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=736893 "New Install of Fedora 16 TC1 on iBFT iSCSI NIC fails on first reboot"
Again, we're still rather looking for information from the reporter here. Tim may be able to acquire an iBFT NIC for testing today.
4. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748747 "Totem doesn't display video when using software 3D rendering"
Did not hear from ajax in relation to this bug today. Again, we really need development input on this one.
5. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=747377 "heap corruption via multi-threaded "git grep""
This is the bug in glibc 12.999 and 13 which can at least potentially cause just about any app to crash. We're in the middle of addressing it; a fixed glibc is out for testing and we are now mass-rebuilding all packages which hit stable since glibc 12.999 made it to the buildroot. This, obviously, isn't speeding up the whole release process any.
Thanks everyone! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net"

---- New bodhi bugfix release in production ----
Luke Macken announced[1]:
"======bodhi v0.8.3======
Yesterday I pushed out a new bugfix release of bodhi into production. The bodhi-client is currently on it's way to updates-testing for all releases.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates
I raced to get this out before the infrastructure freeze today, and since then there have already been many more bugfixes in git, so expect another release shortly after F16 is released.
Please file bugs here[2]

bodhi -r dist-f14 -b 676195 don't respect -r option[5]
Server fixes
Default to update ID-based URLs[6]
fedora-easy-karma submits too many comments to bodhi when bodhi has a server problem (edit)[7]
Bodhi no longer adds comments to Security Response bugs[8]
Buildroot override fixes
Buildroot overrides require commit access to devel branch rather than branch override applies to[9]
Cannot request build root override[10]
buildroot overrides stay after expiration date[11]
Masher fixes
Updates-testing report emails should use package names not update number[12]
Current updateinfo data is broken (epoch="None")[13]
Fedora Update System suggests to reboot when not asked to do so[14]
Package fixes
bodhi-server should require python-fedora-turbogears[15]

---- F16 Final Change Deadline is Monday, Oct. 24 ----
Robyn Bergeron announced[1]:
"Greetings,
This is your friendly reminder that the Final Change Deadline for F16 is Monday, October 24, 2011.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Change_deadlines
"After the change deadlines for the Final release no more updates are made to the branched development repository (e.g. /pub/fedora/linux/development/16).
The only exceptions are accepted blocker and "nice to have" bugs:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process

All updates after this time are considered zero day updates of the release, and are pushed to the updates repository which is available on the public availability date. For example, the repository for Fedora 16 is /pub/fedora/linux/updates/16."
The next step in the process is to create a final release candidate (RC) to pass on to QA for testing as soon as possible. The RC is scheduled to be created on Tuesday, October 25. Outstanding blocker bugs can delay the creation of the RC, possibly resulting in a one-week slip of the schedule.
Current outstanding blocker bugs can be seen here[2]
Thanks, Robyn"

--- Fedora Events ---
The purpose of event is to build a global Fedora events calendar, and to identify responsible Ambassadors for each event. The event page is laid out by quarter and by region. Please maintain the layout, as it is crucial for budget planning. Events can be added to this page whether or not they have an Ambassador owner. Events without an owner are not eligible for funding, but being listed allows any Ambassador to take ownership of the event and make it eligible for funding. In plain words, Fedora events are the exclusive and source of marketing, learning and meeting all the fellow community people around you. So, please mark your agenda with the following events to consider attending or volunteering near you!
Upcoming Events (September - December 2011)

--- Fedora 17 Will Be a Beefy Miracle ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] a note from internetnews.com on Fedora 17's winning release name:
"Fedora 17 will come up against Ubuntu 12.04 codenamed the Precise Pangolin. So for the first time ever, Fedora will have a funkier name than Ubuntu.
Let's hope (for Fedora's sake) that the release is beefier too, so they can relish a well name release!"

--- Fedora 17 Recognized as Beefy Miracle ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1] coverage in Network World on the upcoming release name as well:
"The past couple of weeks have been exciting over in the Fedora camp. Fedora 16 beta barely burst onto the scene when along came the codename announcement for the next release, Fedora 17, a.k.a Beefy Miracle"
"Beefy Miracle supporters put on a much more enthusiastic, energetic campaign than other codename candidates. There's the Beefy Miracle website, with its history page detailing the origins of the codename. And much like Obama supporters proudly wore the future president's face on t-shirts, Beefy Miracle voters showed their support with "The Mustard Indicates Progress" tees."

--- Users decide Fedora 17 will be 'Beefy Miracle' ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1]
"The users of the Linux distribution Fedora have voted on the name for the 17th build of the code base. The top choice? Beefy Miracle."
"Meanwhile, interest in the latest Fedora 16 beta is proving strong, and the Fedora team have added new features designed to make the system faster to boot and more suited to cloud and virtualization tasks. Jared Smith, project leader for The Fedora Project, told The Register that work was still going on to improve the code."

--- Fedora 16: Linux home for lost Ubuntu GNOMEs ---
Rahul Sundaram forwarded[1]:
"Fedora has always been a reasonably popular Linux distro, but now it is acting as a kind of flagship for the GNOME 3 desktop, since Ubuntu has gone its own way. Fedora releases are likely undergoing much closer scrutiny from the Linux community."
"For those who've already made peace with GNOME 3, Fedora 16 is looking like one of the best ways to run the new shell environment. Not only is the default theme nicely integrated, GNOME 3 feels extremely stable on Fedora 16, even as a beta build."

--- Fedora 16 Beta on Slashdot ---
Karin Bakis forwarded[1] a thread on Slashdot discussing Fedora 16 and GNOME 3.2:
"Fedora 16 beta and OpenSuse 12.1 beta have been released. For most users the major change in each distro is Gnome 3.2. Fedora also adopts the new Linux 3 kernel and the GRUB2 bootloader."

--- Testers Wanted to Kick Tires on Fedora 16 Beta Release ---
Karin Bakis forwarded[1] a post in Network World on the Fedora 16 beta launch:
"The Fedora project rolled out the beta version of Fedora 16 today and invites testers to take it for a spin. Current known bugs are listed in the Fedora wiki, and beta testers are encouraged to provide feedback to help fine tune the operating system before Fedora 16 rolls out in November.
In an email announcement, release engineer Dennis Gilmore says that Fedora 16 users can expect the GRUB2 bootloader, which automatically recognizes other operating systems and supports LVM2 and LUKS partitions. Gilmore says that only x86 systems with a BIOS uses GRUB2 by default but work continues to make GRUB2 the default for other architectures and systems, too. Systemd services management was added in Fedora 15, and Gilmore says better integration of Systemd via conversion to native systemd services from legacy init scripts in many software components means faster boot times for desktop users.
On the desktop, Fedora 16 users will see KDE Software Compilation 4.7 and GNOME 3.1 development release. HAL (hardware abstraction layer) has been completely removed, which means faster system bootup. And SELinux includes a new pre-built policy that will only rebuild policy if any customizations have been made. "A sample test run shows 4 times speedup on installing the package from 48 Seconds to 12 Seconds and max memory usage from 38M to 6M," Gilmore explains.
A "cloud-ready" version of GlusterFS, HekaFS (formerly called CloudFS), has been added. Fedora 16 also features expanded virtual network support, new virtual machine lock manager, and improved ability to browse guest file systems, according to Gilmore. For developers, Fedora 16 offers updated Ada, Haskell, and Perl environments, a new Python plugin for GCC, and new and improved APIs."

RE: [Ambassadors] Vacation List/Short Break- Shadow Cabinet
by Pascal Calarco
Hi Richard, Buddhika and everyone –
Thanks for pointing this out. This is a good idea. I might suggest as we broaden the use of the Vacation page that we add a column for which Fedora the person in question is involved with.
If someone is an Ambassador, and on the Docs team, and a beat writer for example, we might want to note all of these, particularly if they have some responsibility for each.
Richard and Buddhika: I so appreciate that you proactively found a backup beat writer for Ambassadors. It makes the Ambassador team look quite responsive and organized – great job! It is an idea that other beat writers could also follow, perhaps.
I will update the ‘In the News’ beat and the ‘Security Advisories’, and we will plan to send 287 out tomorrow.
Rashadul, AdamW, Runa, Guillermo and Josh: what is your schedule like for updating your beats for tomorrow? Thanks!
Antonio: thanks for your expression of interest. I will follow up with you off list for further discussion.

Hi Pascal and Fedora Experts
Good work.
I would like to throw light on our "taking a Short Break - List" as i understand. I propose full usage for Ambassadors and editors too. Vacation List
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Vacation
We can also add a shadow responsibility alike shadow cabinet of ministers, a co-editor who can step in within 24 to 36 hours if timely update is not done.
For Ambassadors Beat for which I hold, Buddhika will be shadow editor, will be standing in if i am delayed/on vacation
Thanks and regards

Hi folks -
We are more than a month since we have had enough content for another issue of FWN, and so I thought I would post openly to the News, Ambassadors, and Marketing lists, asking for some dialogue around this, and seeking some new contributors, perhaps.
Fedora Weekly News is a very important vehicle for letting both the Fedora community and the external Linux community, know what the happenings are with the Fedora Project. FWN has been around for many years and is a trusted brand that the community looks forward to each week.
Writing for FWN is definitely a time commitment, on a weekly basis, and so its understandable that FWN's volunteer beat writers sometimes have a hard time contributing on that regular a basis.
But, if we don't have writers for FWN, we don't have content to produce an issue, and the community loses the vibrant voice that they have relied on in the past.
Do you have suggestions for making FWN an easier time commitment? Should we consider moving FWN to a biweekly frequency for some beats that don't have enough content for a weekly beat?
So, I would like to hear from both current beat writers to FWN, and community members that perhaps would like to get involved as a writer for FWN. The bar is not high for participation. You basically need to have:
1) Continuing interest and passion in the Fedora Project, perhaps on some particular aspect or subproject that you'd like to write on
2) A bit of familiarity with Mediawiki tagging and conventions, and the Fedora Project wiki Style Guide
3) A Commitment to produce a beat on more or less weekly basis
Thanks for your time and consideration! I look forward to hearing from some of you and your ideas to make FWN a viable and vibrant media vehicle for the Fedora Project again.

I believe that our strength is in the community. I am also concerned to
see it all, we do have to admit it was difficult circumstances. That
way we know what we should do.
In my opinion, FWN should still be weekly, why: in a week there are
actually a lothappening in Fedora that we can say
in FWN. Adding one or two new categories Iguess it does not matter. I am
interested to participate in FWN. But what can I do,what I should know in
advance in order to be a good contributor?.
Thank you.
