Fedora Weekly News 187

[Markus McLaughlin]

For one thing, you need a public key (gpg,) not everyone knows how to do
that.  Another item is there should be a "dictionary" of all the terms said
in discussions, so ppl can better understand them.  One thing that bugs meis
if someone has an idea for a feature, why aren't there a means to tell the
developers that yeah that's a good
idea but/or okay, describe it to me, etc.  I just want Fedora to approach
non developers (users) like Ubuntu
does so we (the users) don't feel left out...
