Quiet here too

I was reading Planet Fedora tonight, saw Josh's post, and realized that I hadn't blogged about anything Fedora-related for quite awhile. Not that there has been nothing going on, just that I haven't been inclined to blog about it since I, as Josh, have either said everything that I wanted to on the lists or IRC.

I do really want to apologize for not being as involved day-to-day as I'd like to be, some of you know that $DAYJOB has been particularly demanding of me, the good news is that those demands are beginning to lighten as I transition some of my responsibilities in the project to other folks.

This weekend is the first time in awhile that I've had to concentrate on Fedora, and it just so happens to coincide with beta freeze! This is good from a QA perspective, it means that I get to pound on frozen bits for a bit. I've already filed several bugs this weekend on stuff.

Right now, I'm attempting an install of the entire distribution. I'll provide some interesting (to me) stats after that finishes, probably in a few hours. There are 3 packages that I've had to exclude due to file conflicts, not bad!

I really wish that anaconda would have a 'Select All' box in the optional package selection dialog, my thumb is sore! For example, there are 222 packages in the 'Games' comps group, only 5 of which are marked default. That's a lot of clicking!
