[jkeating at redhat.com: Fedora 11 Beta slip]

[Eric Christensen]

Even though there is a seven day slip, lets try to still have all of our
items complete NLT Sunday evening (US time) so we will be ahead of the
game.

Maybe we can work on this Saturday evening (unless you have a date)
around 0001 UTC.

Eric
