"Fedora 11 is reaching an impressive number of accepted features. Beyond 
introducing Intel and NVIDIA kernel mode-setting, Nouveau becoming the 
default NVIDIA driver, and a new volume control interface, there will be 
a plethora of package updates. Fedora 11 will have available Xfce 4.6, 
GNOME 2.26, and KDE 4.2 for the desktops.

Underneath these updated desktops will be X Server 1.6, EXT4 file-system 
(or optionally Btrfs), the Linux 2.6.29 kernel, and GCC 4.4.

An updated package that will also make its way into Fedora 11 is 
Thunderbird 3. This updated Mozilla mail client brings a revised 
user-interface, easier configuration of mail options, a new add-on 
manager, faster content searching, G-Mail IMAP support, better 
extensibility, and architectural cleanups. The latest version of 
Thunderbird 3.0 is Beta 2, but the targeted release date for a stable 
version is unknown at this time. "
