The first, covering KDE Plasma 6.6, runs from February 2-9, while the second, focused on GNOME 50 Desktop, takes place February 11-13. Participants are encouraged to download test materials, follow the wiki instructions, and submit results via the Fedora test app. The KDE session aims to refine core desktop and mobile features, including a new Plasma Setup and keyboard, whereas the GNOME session will evaluate core desktop functionality and new applications.
