Fedora 21, the next version of Red Hat's Fedora distribution of Linux, just received a slew of new feature approvals courtesy of the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee.
According to Phoronix, among the most significant new changes included are a new systemwide policy for the handling of cryptography. The idea,
according to Fedora's own wiki, is to "unify the crypto policies used by different applications and libraries" so that all applications running on a given Fedora system can have a consistent level of cryptography set between them.
