On 17th December 2013, The Fedora Project team officially announced the release of Fedora 20 codenamed “Heisenbug” and made available for both 32-bit or 64-bit architectures.
Sadly, this 20th release of Fedora is dedicated to Mr. Seth Vidal, a developer who passed away in a road accident this year.
On July 8th 2013, The Fedora Project team lost Mr. Seth Vidal, a brilliant and was a lead contributor to Yum and Fedora update repository system. He worked to assure that the technical and association infrastructure of Fedora worked well and persistently for users and contributors all over the world.
Directly and indirectly Seth impressed the lives of millions of Fedora contributors and others developing the maturity of using and updating Fedora.
This was one of the hefty release announced by the Fedora project on their 10th anniversary. The first release of Fedora Core 1 came out on 6th November 2003, after that Fedora project community has grown drastically by releasing their versions every six months.
