Members of the Fedora committers team met in person to design Fedora 6.0. This next release will focus on:
- Compliance with the Oxford Common File Layout
- Including transparency and support for rebuilding the repository from the files on disk
- Better performance and scale
- Minimizing change to the user via the API
The design also includes support for a simple query service and support for migrations from earlier versions of Fedora. More details can be found on the wiki.
