Introducing Fedora Project Leader Jef Spaleta

Outgoing Fedora Project Leader (FPL) Matthew Miller has announcedhis successor, Jef Spaleta.

Some of you may remember Jef's passionate voice in the early Fedoracommunity. He got involved all the way back in the days of fedora.us,before Red Hat got involved. Jef served on the Fedora Board from July2007 through the end of 2008. This was the critical time after FedoraExtras and Fedora Core merged into one Fedora Linux where, with thelaunch of the "Features" process, Fedora became a truly community-ledproject.

Spaleta will be joining Red Hat full time in May and Miller will beformally handing off FPL duties at the Flock conference inJune.
