Ehm.. tidak seperti teman-teman lain, yang pada pinter2 bercerita untuk entry lomba foto, saya mah tu de poin aja … :D

Announcing Fedora 7 (Moonshine)

Posted on June 1st, 2007 by john.

Howdy, cousins! Welcome to our little Fedora hollow, where we’ve brewed up some mighty, mighty Fedora 7 Moonshine for your enjoyment. Here, I’ll help you pour that … and some for me … *cough, cough* Smoooooth … sure does taste good. It’s been sitting here in the jug for almost a whole month now! Go ahead and help yourself to some more:

http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora.html

What’s the most important thing to do if you are upgrading your Fedora version? Why, that’s easy! Read the release notes, it prevents hangovers:

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes

What are new things to do with your Moonshine?

* Mix and remix this Moonshine to come up with as many flavored drinks as there is Joe-Pye weed in the Appalachians. Want an OS to send home with the students or staff? Add packages, remove packages, spin it any way you like. Let a thousand distros bloom!

* Bottle up that custom mix and call it an appliance. ISV building an appliance product? Make an RPM, identify the minimal number of packages needed for an appliance around that RPM, then build a distro and a live image. Easy as moon pie.

Gol’ darn, but this is good ’shine. *hic* There, is that enough? No? Here, let me pour us some more, and we can toast the most important part of this Moonshine — the makers. You thought I made it? Oh, no. No special elite brewmaster here, I’m just a bartender, and this log is my bar! Ha ha. No, really … see …

Fedora 7 is the first release where the development was one hunnerd and one per-cent in the community. How? It’s simple, cousin — all he code was merged into a single external repository. Why? Same great distribution quality, even more high-quality developers able to work directly with the code and improve the flavor of over 7500 packages.

Grab that jug, look inside, and you find:

* KDE? Yep, with Moonshine, Fedora and KDE are gettin’ downright friendly with each other.

* Laptops? A tickless kernel means better power consumption for laptops; extended wireless functionality, meaning more chances hardware will Just Work. Yee-ha!

* Get those Live images, burn CDs or DVDs, and share them with your friends and neighbors. This is the first Fedora distribution with full Live CD/DVD capability.

* Interoperability? Let’s start with resizing and reading of NTFS file systems. How about those Liberation fonts, d’you like how they just slip right in where other fonts were used?

* Why stop with just one fruit jar of virtualization? This release includes support for KVM and overall more virtualization capability.

* As always, tasty new graphics for the Fedora 7 desktop, as well as an updated Website look and functionality, including a new build and package update system.

More? Read up at:

http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f7/en_US/sn-OverView.html

Oops, looks like we drank up all that jug. Guess I’ll just make a trip over the torrents to get me another. All right, then, we’ll see you. Y’all come back soon now, ya hear?

= Want Fedora? Get Fedora =

=======================================

John’s note: this post is taken from the official release e-mail at fedora-announce-list@redhat.com

Things i noticed and look forward to use: extended wireless functionality & resizing and reading of NTFS

Bottom line: Fedora Rocks! :D

100% Bebas Asap Rokok

World No Tobacco Day 2007

Kepada: pengelola tempat-tempat umum

Penelitian ilmiah tentang bahaya perokok pasif telah dilakukan selama lebih dari 20 tahun. Tidak ada keraguan bahwa merokok secara pasif sangat berbahaya bagi kesehatan manusia, menyebabkan kanker dan banyak penyakit pernafasan serta kardiovaskuler pada anak-anak serta orang dewasa, dan tidak jarang mempercepat kematian.

Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) telah berkesimpulan bahwa asap rokok, sekecil apapun jumlahnya, tetaplah berbahaya. Rekomendasi WHO tentang hal ini mengatakan bahwa satu-satunya cara untuk melindungi masyarakat dari bahaya asap rokok adalah dengan memberlakukan peraturan 100% bebas asap rokok bagi tempat-tempat umum.

Hak untuk mendapatkan udara bersih, bebas dari asap rokok adalah hak umat manusia.

Dengan demikian, kami meminta anda untuk melindungi kesehatan pegawai, pekerja dan masyarakat umum dengan cara menerapkan peraturan yang 100% melarang merokok di tempat-tempat umum. Kami percaya, langkah ini adalah langkah yang sangat penting untuk melindungi kesehatan kita dan anak-anak kita semua.

Tertanda,

John Chendra
