Hey, folks. So, just wanted to kick off a discussion regarding this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688305
The default update notification period has been changed for GNOME in F15 from 1 day to 1 week (security updates still get notifications immediately). This is a change that's come from upstream, the GNOME design team, who consider it a UI design issue. QA and FPL think this is at least partly a distro policy issue as well as / more than a UI design issue, and think we should consider whether we actually want to make this change for Fedora, and if so whether we should have a different update period for the pre-release cycle. QA certainly feels that 1 day is more appropriate than 1 week during pre-release time.
We chatted a bit about this during the blocker review meeting today, but all agreed this would be a more appropriate venue for discussion, so I wanted to kick off a thread. :) Thoughts?
Have there been any decisions on this topic?
Thanks, James
