by Michael Larabel
With the fedora-maintainers list having shut down on September 10, is
there a new list that needs to be covered for FWN?

Daily Package Beat
by Chris Tyler
No Daily Package beat this week, since with the start of a new teaching
semester I have unfortunately not been able to keep up daily postings!
I'll resume next week.

Help clarifying a comment please
by Oisin Feeley
Hi all,
I'm trying to write up the "remove root login via display-manager"
thread for the Devel news beat and I'm completely stumped as to what
Alan Cox is saying in this comment:
"And my violent objection would be to forcing the creation of a local
user
account IFF the user has not selected any remote authentication scheme.
If
I've not ticked any of ldap, nis, .. etc then its a very good idea to be
extremely clear to the user that they want a non root account."
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2007-September/msg01553...
I'll admit to being tired, but to me the propositional logic of the
first sentence isn't borne out by the second.
The first sentence implies either:
1) force creation of local user, no remote authentication selected
2) don't force creation of local user, remote authentication selected
and his objection to these is contradicted by his second sentence which
agrees with 1).
Any thoughts?

As I'm translating FWN to Czech, I will take the time the FWN is "on
holiday" to learn how to do these Beats if anyone would give me brief
overview and "help-hand".
Thank you.

Docs and art
by Jonathan Roberts
Hi all,
I don't think I'm going to be able to carry on with doing the docs and
arts beats :( I should be able to cover this weekend but after that I
can't make any promises - I hope this is enough notice and doesn't
inconvenience anybody too much?!
Hopefully a few months down the line I might be able to start
contributing again though :D
