Submission + - Robyn Bergeron Stepping Down as Fedora Project Leader (eweek.com)

darthcamaro writes: Red Hat's Fedora Linux Project Leader Robyn Bergeron announced that she is leaving her role. Bergeron became Fedora Project Leader in February of 2012 and has presided over one of the busiest periods for Fedora ever. Fedora is now moving to a new model for Fedora 21 with separate desktop, cloud and server products.

"The community has now gotten to the point where it's not a one-size-fits-all product anymore," Bergeron said.

This particular Honda Fit is not even properly assembled so it couldn't even bring a new set of tires for the dump truck.
Did you miss the part where it was stated "and a tertiary goal is to be better than ZFS"
The implication is that it will eventually be a ZFS replacement. My point is that they are so far behind and have accomplished so little to date, that will NEVER happen.

If they prove me wrong, good for them. I'm always on the lookout for a better tool or way to do things but I stand by my remark that this project is going nowhere fast.

AMD made it easy to upgrade incrementally; not sure if the same would have been true of Intel as I've not had an Intel desktop in over 10 yrs.

Bought a Athlon X2 with nForce-based mainboard & DDR2 RAM in 2006.
Maxed out the RAM & upgraded to Athlon II X4 in 2009 while keeping same mainboard.
In 2011, bought new 990FX- based board to get SATA 3 / USB 3 & DDR3 RAM but kept the same 4-core CPU.
Just last week, got a 8320 Black Edition 8-core at a good price and might soon get my first "AMD" videocard as an upgrade for my GeForce 9600GT.

Submission + - Red Hat Acquires Inktank for $175 Million (Mark Shuttleworth backed!) (eweek.com)

darthcamaro writes: Red Hat today announced an all cash deal worth $175 million to acquire Inktank, the lead commercial sponsor behind the Ceph open-source distributed filesystem. As part of the deal, Inktank is now set to open-source its proprietary Calamari monitoring system for Ceph. The deal could prove to be a real boon for Inktank's investors which include Dreamhost and Red Hat's Linux rival, Mark Shuttleworth. The fate of Gluster however is not a concern as Red Hat sees Ceph and Gluster as being complementary storage filesystem technologies.
