At the meeting it was announced that the Fedora Linux 42 Final RC 1.1 build is a "GO" for releasing on Tuesday. Those eager to begin trying out Fedora 42 can find those RC 1.1 images via this Fedora Wiki page for those not wanting to wait around until next Tuesday for those images to be officially announced as the stable release.
