Fedora 12 Offers Latest Features and Usability

[clip]

"Overall, one of the things that is really important about Fedora 12 
over previous releases is that we have stepped back from the platform a 
bit to look at the overall user experience that people have, and we have 
spent a good amount of time applying effort to the fit and finish of the 
distribution to make for a more pleasant experience when people are 
using it," Paul Frields, Fedora project leader at Red Hat, tells 
/LinuxLine. /

"The fit and finish that we have done extends from everything down to 
the engineering work that has been done to provide a beautiful boot 
screen all the way up to the way that icon spacing done is in the 
interface and we have looked at everything in-between. And while we 
don't feel like we are finished with that yet, we do feel like Fedora 12 
was a real leap ahead in terms of being a very polished, solid 
distribution that anybody is able to use."
