Now there is an effort for s390x as secondary architecture. I am the owner of s390utils in RHEL and so I would like to maintain it in Fedora too. There should be only one source of packages even for secondary architectures and this is our pkgdb + cvs. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/172> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

New language codes?
by Paul W. Frields 02 Oct '08

02 Oct '08

If the Docs Project is able to complete a transition to Publican for the release notes for Fedora 10, many of our language codes will change to ISO standards. This includes moving from en_US to en-US, as in "Release_Notes-en-US.txt". It would probably be good if any tools used to spin or release the distribution get updated to support both of these options. I would suggest shifting them to use the ISO standard, en-US, first and the try falling back to en_US. That way, if we fail utterly and have to drop back to the old way of doing business, the results will still land properly. -- Paul W.
