Fedora 14 is out


Get Fedora 14 from https://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora. The website has a great new look and feel, check out http://fedoraproject.org/.

Checkout some of the cool tools and features at http://fedoraproject.org/en/features/

libcgroup has been updated to  0.36.2, I'd recommend moving to 0.37 (it should be available soon)
