Matthew Miller (Matthew Miller), the leader of the Fedora project, published the development strategy for the next three years. The strategy outlines the key areas of focus for the project:
- Improving accessibility for people with disabilities by enhancing documentation and tools for application and package assembly.
- Enhancing community stability through mentoring programs and new collaboration tools like Forgejo.
- Streamlining the distribution editorial process, including marketing articles, simplifying assembly creation, and refactoring special interest groups.
- Expanding pre-installation options for Fedora and supporting hardware vendors, local communities, cloud providers, and continuous integration systems.
- Embracing technical innovation with a focus on containers, the Flatpak framework, atomic editions of desktop environments, programming language ecosystems, and artificial intelligence.
- Building relationships with related ecosystems like RHEL and CentOS, supporting derivative projects, and engaging with upstream projects.
Over the next few months, four key initiatives will be launched:
- Ensuring accessible releases by blocking problematic releases that impact people with disabilities.
- Implementing gitops workflow for package improvements.
- Migrating to the Forgejo platform for joint development.
- Providing tools for developing machine learning systems.
Following the initial initiatives, the following actions will be taken:
- Archiving Bugzilla content as Red Hat transitions away from Bugzilla and moves to Forgejo for error tracking.
- Moving discussions from mailing lists to Discourse forums as the primary discussion platform.
- Transitioning to Konflux for container assembly instead of koji.
- Enhancing marketing information for new distribution releases.
- Expanding the fedora Ready initiative.
