Contributing
Have something you want included? You can file an issue or submit a pull request in the fedora-pgm/pgm_communication repo.
One thing I did differently this week is to include a count of open bugs for the supported releases (F33 and F34). A few weeks ago, I started including bug counts for development releases. So my question is where should I put the bug counts for the in-development releases?
Vote in the poll.
