Hey all, here are some virt and fedora status bits for March.
Fedora 21
=========
The Fedora 21 schedule was finalized last month.
- 2014-04-08 Change Proposal Submission Deadline
- 2014-07-08 Changes Freeze--Planning & Development Ends
- 2014-07-22 Alpha Change Deadline
- 2014-08-05 Alpha Release
- 2014-08-26 Beta Change Deadline
- 2014-09-09 Beta Release
- 2014-09-30 Final Change Deadline
- 2014-10-14 Fedora 21 Final Release
There's quite a large window between the change submission deadline (next
week) and the alpha freeze, 3 months total. I've proposed one change:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Virt_64bit_ARM_on_x86
That's basically about qemu-system-aarch64 being usable. This is under
heavy development in upstream qemu, but there's a good chance that
something will be useful in time for Fedora 21, and that page is about
tracking the progress, getting it documented, wired up in libvirt, etc.
