[$] Deciphering Google's automotive Android plan At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas,
Google announced the Open Auto
Alliance (OAA), a new consortium of companies with the mission of
improving Android for use in cars. That makes OAA
the third industry coalition focused around getting Linux into
automobiles (after the GENIVI
Alliance and Automotive Grade Linux), which
complicates the picture somewhat for fans of free
software—particularly since there are several companies that
participate in more than one group. | | 5:19p |

Reznik: Where's Fedora 21 schedule? Jaroslav Reznik looks
at the Fedora 21 release schedule, or lack thereof. " [T]here are several working groups trying to redefine, how Fedora should look like in the future and it does not make sense to create schedule. We need resolution from this effort. It's planned for January.
Is Fedora 21 going to be released in the old model way, or new one? Hard to answer right now. But there's one date - F21 is not going to be released earlier than in August (and I'd say late August)." | | 9:59p |
