    [$] Fedora, GNOME Software, and snap
    A question about the future of package distribution is at the heart of a
    disagreement about the snap plugin for the GNOME Software application
    in Fedora.
    In a Fedora devel mailing list thread,
    Richard Hughes raised
    multiple issues about the plugin and the
    direction that he sees Canonical taking with snaps for Ubuntu.
    He plans to remove support for the plugin for GNOME Software in
    Fedora 31.
    5:44p
    [$] What's coming in Python 3.8
    The Python 3.8 beta cycle is already underway, with Python 3.8.0b1
    released on June 4    , followed by the second beta
    on July 4    . That means that Python 3.8 is feature complete at
    this point, which makes it a good time to see what will be part of it when
    the final release is made. That is currently scheduled
    for October, so users don't have that long to wait to start using those new
    features.
