Fedora 31 Release Party

By -
This is mostly a recapitulation of the Fedora 31 Release Party which happened at Red Hat India BLR office sometime during November of 2019. 


Fedora Release Parties:

Fedora Release Parties are Fedora Calendar events which take place across the globe and it's one of the easiest way to meet like minded people who contribute to Fedora Project and celebrate the release. 

Usually, Release Parties help people to learn a couple of things or two about:

1. What's going on in the Project
2. What's new in Fedora Release?
3. What's coming in the new Releases?

The Show:

Robin Cain (current Director of Linux Engineering @ Red Hat) cutting the cake!


Release Parties don't have any said or defined agenda, it's a very free flow "unconference" style meet. Although to set a rough agenda, we started the day with "What's new in Fedora?" which was mostly a run though the new goodies that has arrived as a part of Fedora 31.

The participation was mostly interns and some employees of Red Hat.... BUT this Release Party was special, we had the entire of Red Hat QE leadrship with us and was the guests of honor. 
 


Cakes for grab!



As participants enjoyed the "Cake Time!"
The Fedora Diversity video was played and it gave the participants and overall idea of how much welcoming Fedora community is!
Amita , Fedora Contributor talking in Marathi

That concluded the Fedora 31 Release Party at BLR!

Thursday 2017-04-06 will be Anaconda Blivet-GUI Test Day ! As part of this planned Change for Fedora 26, So this is an important Test Day! We'll be testing the new detailed bottom-up configuration screen has been long requested by users and inclusion of blivet-gui into Anaconda finally makes this a reality. On the other hand, it just adds a new option without changing the existing advanced storage configuration so users that prefer the top-down configuration can still use it. to see whether it's working well enough and catch any remaining issues. It's also pretty easy to join in: all you'll need is alpha 1.7 (which you can grab from the wiki page). Anaconda grew a rather important new option in F26: as well as the two existing partitioning choices (automatic, and the existing anaconda custom part interface) there's now a *third* choice.so now you can do custom partitioning with blivet-gui run within anaconda, as well as using anaconda's own interface
