5月の連休が近づくと、年中行事のように、新しい Fedora への移行を考え始めます。年に二回のリリース頻度というのは忙しいようですが、新しいリリースをクリーンインストールをするのは、この 5 月の連休の時期の方だけで、秋のリリースに対しては、アップグレードで済ませてしまっているため、気分は年 1 回の変更です。なお、5月の連休のタイミングでは正式版がリリースされていないので、β版をインストールするか、間に合えば RC 版をインストールしています。今回の Fedora 17（コードネームは Beefy Miracle）のリリース予定は現在のところ 5 月 22 日ですので、この連休には間に合いません。β版が来週リリースされる予定なので、これをインストールすることになりそうです。
今回のリリースの特徴は下記の通り。日本語には翻訳していません。
FeatureList - FedoraProject
Beefy Miracle というコードネームどおり機能満載ですが、個人的には、Java 7 / Eclipse Juno の開発環境が Linux で使えるようになることが何よりの楽しみです。
あと、MinGW のクロスコンパイル環境が、完全に Mingw-w64 へ移行しています。最近はクロスコンパイル環境を使っていないので、この機に状況を調べる時間を取らないと…。
