== SBR600 in Fall Winter 2011 ==
This semester, students will be working directly with the Fedora project and other open source communities, on various build and release projects. Some of this work will be centered on the [[Fedora ARM Secondary Architecture]] project started by the Winter 2010 SBR600 class and continued in Fall 2010 , Winter 2011, and Winter Fall 2011; the rest of the projects will focus , and specifically, on other aspects of the building, testing, releasing, and maintaining a [[:fedora:Main PageFedora Remix|FedoraRemix]] build processfor the [http://raspberrypi. The skills required will vary according to the project selectedorg Raspberry Pi]].
Note that, unlike some other project-based courses, the results of the projects done in SBR600 will be incorporated into the Fedora project (or other open source projects) and have a real impact on other people. For this reason, projects must be completed in collaboration with the relevant open source communities, using relevant [[SBR600 Communication Tools|communication tools]]. Work performed in this course will be licensed using the relevant open source licenses used by the associated community.
Working in an open source community provides the opportunity to build solid real-world experience, your technical skills and reputation, and a network of contacts, all of which are useful in developing your career.
=== Course Materials ===
Students will require access to a personal Fedora 13 15 or Fedora 14 16 installation, either on their own laptop, on a virtual machine on their laptop, on an SSH-accessible system (such as a home desktop computer), or on a SATA disk pack.
