End of September the Fedora project celebrates its fifth year of existence. The community supported by Red Hat will release its tenth distribution.

The developers reveal a few statistics for its quinquennial. The community now has 13,500 so-called Fedora Account System Members with direct participation. The forthcoming development branch that will become Fedora 10 will include 6,500 source packages and over 10,000 binary packages.

The project has held 16 conferences, known as FUDCons (Fedora User and Developer Conferences), not to speak of countless FUDPub events. The actual birthday is September 24.

Fedora Turns Five

End of September the Fedora project celebrates its fifth year of existence. The community supported by Red Hat will release its tenth distribution. For those who feel that the concept of this story is insightful, the probability is you are thinking about using Linux as your number one or simply a substitute Operating system when you find yourself simply sick and tired of your old OS. Though the majority feel that Linux is too difficult that it is attractive only to geeks, Linux-magazine.com can certainly demonstrate that this awesome operating-system is essentially for all people. It is regularly entertaining to find out about Fedora Turns Five.
