Overall neutral article. "Fedora 24 is one of the best Linux distro releases you're likely to see this year…In the end, despite how much I enjoyed using Fedora 24 for a couple of months, it hasn't convinced me to give up Arch." 13:12:19 Whew 13:12:28 A lot of links! 13:12:33 Any questions/comments about these announcements? 13:12:50 x3mboy: Yes.

I just want to know if there a site where links are posted, to post and to read from there 13:16:19 x3mboy: Ah. Well, if they are relevant to Fedora, we can always share them on our social media channels. 13:17:01 The few curious exceptions are things like VLC (which is in the EPEL repos) and Chromium (which is in the RPM Fusion repos), but neither is available in any of the repos that ship with a new release of Fedora. 13:17:06 The only comment i have is: I'm happy with the Magazine/Marketing split :) 13:17:12 x3mboy: But there ins't a showcase page 13:17:23 s/ins't/isn't 13:17:43 Southern_Gentlem, Chromium is on repos since a little bit of time 13:18:06 x3mboy: Yeah, that's in the mainline repos now 13:18:18 and vlc isnt in epel its in rpmfusion 13:18:54 Ah, so small errors.
