Last week, as part of the [Fedora 14 Bugzilla Housekeeping](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping/Fedora14)
 process, all open Fedora 12 bugs were closed. Fedora 12 is now officially *end-of-life* (EOL). This means that no new bugs are accepted for Fedora 12, and updates, including security fixes, will no longer be issued. Come join the rest of us on Fedora 13 or 14.

Here is a glance at the [remaining bugs](http://tinyurl.com/4cavl2)
