Security Breach Can’t Halt Fedora 10’s Debut

“If you look at our original schedule we were supposed to release around Oct. 28 and here we are, four weeks later than what we expected,” Paul Frields, Fedora’s project leader, told InternetNews.com. The outage itself lasted about three weeks, he added, “and during that time, our infrastructure team nuked our infrastructure and rebuilt the entire thing.”

“We reconstructed everything from scratch and after those three weeks, we really only lost a week on top of that compared to our original schedule,” Frields said. “So we look at it as a fairly successful release overall, given the circumstances that we had to work with.”
