| Fedora项目是一份由Red
Hat策划的开放开发项目，它向普通参与者开放并由精英管理者领导，沿着一系列项目目标而前进。Fedora项目的目标是与Linux社区协作，只从开放
源码软件来创建一份完整的、通用的操作系统。其开发过程是以公开论坛的形式进行的。项目将按时间计划，每年作两到三次Fedora的发布，并提供一份公开
的发布日程表。Red
Hat工程组将继续参与Fedora的开发，并且将比以往更多地邀请和鼓励外界的参与。通过采用这样一种更加开放的过程，我们希望能提供一份更加符合自由
软件理念并且对开放源码社区更具吸引力的操作系统。 Jesse Keating announced the availability of the release of Fedora 9 Preview: "After some minor delays (like all rawhide flights grounded for a few days of repair...), the Fedora Project is proud to announce the release of Fedora 9 Preview! This is a Preview release, it is fairly close to what the final product will be like. This is the most critical release for the Fedora community to use and test and report bugs on. This is the last major public release before the final GOLD Fedora 9 release on May 13th (we hope). For this Preview release, we will be doing a staged offering. The first stage, available now, will be via bittorrent. The second stage, which should be available early next week, will be via our world wide mirroring system, and will include jigdo."
