The Fedora 8 release schedule
The Fedora folks are not wasting any time; there is already a posted release
schedule for Fedora 8. It's a short (five-month) development
cycle this time, with the final release due on October 31. One can
already imagine the Halloween-themed release announcement.

Halloween themed? Posted Jun 1, 2007 12:30 UTC (Fri) by avik (subscriber, #704) [Link] I don't think the schedule is likely to slip by an entire year.
Halloween themed? Posted Jun 2, 2007 17:23 UTC (Sat) by proski (subscriber, #104) [Link] I think they are aiming for 6 months, leaving one month for "unplanned" delays. But if they make it for Halloween, it would be spooky!

The Fedora 8 release schedule - liberating OpenJDK Posted Jun 1, 2007 20:43 UTC (Fri) by mjw (subscriber, #16740) [Link] It will be hard work on such a tight schedule, but I believe that is the plan. Problem of course is that there are still binary blobs that cannot be redistributed and that OpenJDK is only available for 2 architectures, while GCJ and GNU Classpath are ported to almost all platforms. But the Planet Classpath community seems to be hacking very hard to make all those issues disappear.
