Histórico

Este es un rol nuevo en Fedora, desde octubre de 2023.

¿Qué pasa con el Gestor de Programa Fedora (Administrador de Programa de Fedora) (FPgM)?

En 2007, Red Hat empezó a proporcionar asistencia a Fedora a través de una función financiada por la organización de Administración del Programa de la compañía. En el 2023, los cambios estructurales en la compañía eliminaron este puesto. El Arquitecto de Operaciones de Fedora (FOA) es un rol nuevo situado en Ingeniería Linux en Red Hat, diseñado para estar más cercanamente alineado con la definición y la práctica de las necesidades únicas de Fedora.
