Red Hat's Fedora Project has announced several cool things this week. The first was Intel's defection from Ubuntu to use Fedora in its Moblin (Mobile Linux Internet Project). Intel's Dirk Hohndel billed it as driven by the project's preference for Fedora's RPM-based packaging system, but ... ...

An anonymous reader writes "According to a report on heise, Intel is switching from using Ubuntu to the Fedora Project for the second version of the Intel supported Mobile & Internet Linux Project Moblin, citing a desire to use RPM package management." So far, of the various subnotebooks I've been glancing at over shoulders at OSCON, though, most of the ones with an easily identified operating system seem to be running Ubuntu.

Virtual Hosting With PureFTPd And MySQL (Incl. Quota And Bandwidth Management) On Fedora 9 This document describes how to install a PureFTPd server that uses virtual users from a MySQL database instead of real system users. This is much more performant and allows to have thousands of ftp users on a single machine. In addition to that I will show the use of quota and upload/download bandwidth limits with this setup. Passwords will be stored encrypted as MD5 strings in the database. Read more... ...

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) has emerged as a popular technology for modern voice communications. Many organizations have replaced their analog or proprietary digital telephone systems with VoIP-based solutions. This allows the consolidation of telephone services into an existing IP infrastructure. In addition, using IP to host voice services lets the organization leverage existing expertise–while retaining all of the network’s management advantages. Though not without its disadvantages, VoIP provides a compelling option to those looking for a telephone solution. ...

This should be of interest to mobile Linux developers. Intel switched from Ubuntu to Fedora for their moblin project both because they wanted the .rpm package manager instead of .deb (what maemo uses) and because they wanted more community drive. It is unclear if this will effect Ubuntu Mobile's use of maemo's Hildon framework. I hope they don't do too much to stray from the established base of talented Nokia Internet Tablet developers. The goal SHOULD be to have more applications available on more devices with less development time required. Whenever any company decides to "do their own thing," that goes against the goal. 5 0 ...

While the rest of the world is knee-deep in webinars, Skype-based teleconferences, and other "Web 2.0"-ish forms of real time communication, most of the Linux community still relies on IRC, wikis, and opt-in email lists to get things done. At FUDCon last month, the Fedora community announced a new way of helping members and developers communicate with each other: Fedora Talk Fedora Talk is a new telephony system based on the free voice VoIP project Asterisk . Using any standard VoIP hardware or software, Fedora contributors can sign into the system and use it to make or receive calls to other Fedora contributors anywhere in the world. According to the Fedora Team , "Fedora contributors can set up ad hoc conferences, further deepening social connections and creating a more efficient method for communication when working on certain projects. In the future, we hope to add web conference capabilites for anyone with VoIP access. There are other possibilities to explore with Fedora Talk as well. What if, in the future, a Fedora volunteer could claim an hour of time to run a VoIP phone and answer user or contributor questions?" So why not just use Skype to facilitate communication among contributors? Well, for one thing, Skype software doesn't always work on Linux systems. Additionally, some Linux users don't want to use any applications with a closed source development model, and instead prefer open apps like Ekiga . There was plenty of ...

The Mobile News application on the iPhone is a very good application. The first thing you notice when you download the application is the use of the icon. Associated Press decided to use an old-school Fedora hat that reporters wore in the 70’s. The download itself is only about a megabyte in size. The [...] ...
