Fedora 15 Linux hits first alpha, debuts BoxGrinder for cloud
By Sean Michael Kerner
Fedora 15, codenamed 'Lovelock' now has its first alpha milestone
available <http://fedoraproject.org/get-prerelease>. This is a BIG
release for Fedora in that it's the first Fedora of the post Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6 era, and oh yeah first with GNOME 3, SystemD and
BoxGrinder.
GNOME 3, including GNOME Shell mark the evolution of the Linux desktop
and Fedora is likely to be the first big Linux distro to full integrate
it. When it comes to systemd, that's been a long time coming, but in
Fedora 15, it's finally fully baked making it easier and faster to
manage and startup background daemons.
BoxGrinder is another story and is a very exciting technology. Red Hat
first starting talking about BoxGrinder a year ago
<http://www.internetnews.com/dev-news/article.php/3864466/Red-Hat-Talks-Up-Open-Source-Cloud-Plans.htm>
as a new way to build virtual software appliances (think SUSE Studio
from rival Novell).
