Won't be at Workstation WG meeting
by Paul W. Frields 31 May '18

31 May '18

I'll be on PTO on Monday June 4 and won't make the Workstation WG meeting. According to the schedule, Owen Taylor is on deck to chair that day. Owen, to start the meeting you can use these commands: #startmeeting Workstation WG #meetingname workstation Along those same lines... please generously make use of #idea, #agreed, #info, and #action to provide useful minutes. A long IRC discussion without minutes that keep other people informed might as well not be public. You can find some other helpful commands here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zodbot#Meeting_Functions -- Paul W.

I'd file a bug on upstream GNOME for this, against gdm or gnome-shell. The screen is part of *gnome-shell*, in fact, not GDM. IIRC and AIUI (put those on my gravestone!), the screen was introduced before gdm became basically a special case of shell - so the screen was written assuming it'd be displayed when a *logged-in session* hit a critical failure. But now gdm *is* just a special case of gnome-shell...it also shows up when a *gdm instance* hits a critical failure. And obviously, as you say, makes very little sense in that case.

2018-05-14 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 29 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 13 May '18

13 May '18

# F29 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2018-05-14 # Time: 16:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net Hi folks! We have 6 proposed Beta blockers and one proposed freeze exception to review, so let's have a review meeting tomorrow. If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ . We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not fixed. Information on the release criteria for F29 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP on the wiki: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good night and see you tomorrow!

GNOME 3.28.2 megaupdate
by Kalev Lember 07 May '18

07 May '18

Hi all, Last coordinated GNOME 3.28.x point release is this week: 3.28.2. We still have the f28-gnome side target and same drill as usual to get builds in the megaupdate: build with 'fedpkg build --target f28-gnome' (or if you accidentally built without it, just do 'koji move-build f28-updates-candidate f28-gnome yourpackage-1.2.3.fc28') and I'll pick your build up when submitting the bodhi update later this week. Thanks, Kalev
