Fedora 23 for aarch64 released
==============================

It's (approximately) Halloween, so you know what that means — new
Fedora! The Fedora 23 release is here, and it's better than ever
before. We're pleased to bring you the latest incarnation of Fedora
Server for aarch64 built with love by the Fedora community to
custom-fit your needs in different areas.

If that's all you need to hear, download from
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/23/Server/aarch64/
or if you already use Fedora, follow the simple upgrade steps at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading.

Otherwise, read on for details.


Fedora Server
------------

Fedora Server makes service management simple with RoleKit, a
programmatic interface for quick deployment, and Cockpit, a remote web
GUI. Now in Fedora Server 23, you can manage Kubernetes clusters from
the Cockpit Admin Console, or launch a FreeIPA domain controller from a
kickstart file. Get Fedora Server this morning and have an identity
management solution in place by lunchtime.


Updated Components
------------------

As with every Fedora release, almost every component has a new version,
with improvements across the board.

Fedora 23 also has important under-the-hood security improvements, with
increased hardening for all compiled software and with insecure SSL3
and RC4 protocols disabled. We've also updated all of the software
installed by default in Fedora Cloud Base Image and Fedora Workstation
to use Python version 3.

Perhaps most importantly, Unicode 8.0 support now enables the crucial
U1F32D character.
