The DNF version 0.6.2 contains mostly bug fixes, improves database locking mechanism and does not request fresh metadata for every command. More information in release notes. This is the last version of DNF under the lead of Ales Kozumplik - hopefully not the last stable/usable version of DNF. Thanks Ales for your hard work and knowledge you gave us.
As I will be moving on to work on other things beyond Linux software management soon, I decided to step down as a leader of the project.
The new leader of the project is Jan Šilhan, the change is effective as of today. Jan is a talented, result-oriented software developer and I am convinced he is just the right type for the job.
It has been exciting and fun three years and a big thanks to all of you who contributed, consulted, supported or generally shared the ride.
