=== What's New in Fedora 14? ===

==== For desktop users ====
A universe of new features for end users:

* libjpeg-turbo:  Users can load and save images faster in Fedora 14
than in previous releases.
* Spice: Spice (Simple Protocol for Independent Computing
Environments) provides users with an enhanced remote desktop
experience. Currently, it provides the rudimentary foundation to take
advantage of things like Accelerated 2D graphics, encryption, and
hardware cursor support.

==== For developers ====
For developers there are all sorts of additional goodies:

* D: Fedora 14 introduces support for D, a systems programming
language combining the power and high performance of C and C++ with
the programmer productivity of modern languages such as Ruby and
Python.
* Python 2 upgrade: The system python 2 stack has been upgraded to 2.7.
* GNUStep: A GUI framework based of the Objective-C programming
language which is part of the gcc.
* Memory Debugging Tools: The new "gdb-heap" package adds a new "heap"
command to /usr/bin/gdb which allows you to get a breakdown of how a
process is using dynamic memory.
* Rakudo Star: An implementation of Perl version 6, based on the Parrot VM.
* Support for Milkymist: Developers can enjoy developing for
Milkymist, an open hardware embedded board, on Fedora 14. Thanks to
the Fedora Electronic Lab for their work in this regard.

==== For system administrators ====
And don't think we forgot about the system administrators:

* Fedora is now available for users of the Amazon Elastic Computing
Cloud service, released concurrently with the traditional release.
* virt-v2v assists in the easy migration of Xen virtual machines to
KVM virtual machines.
* A Virtualization Technology Preview Repo allows users to test the
very latest developments in virtualization related packages.
* Varnish has been updated and includes improved scalability and a new
log function.
