The Fedora Project is working toward the releaseof Fedora Linux 40, and (as with each release) that means changesto the way the project works and the software included in its repositories. Mostof the changesset for Fedora 40 are uncontroversial, but one change is causing quitea stir. The KDE Special Interest Group's (SIG) proposal to adopt KDE Plasma 6 with only Wayland session support, which it interpreted as a mandate to block any X11 packages for Plasma. Others saw it as overreach by the SIG, and an attempt to block users and contributors from maintaining software they needed.
