Today, on 2017-Sep-05, we reach two important milestones of the Fedora 27 release [1]:
== Change Checkpoint: 100% Code Complete Deadline [2] == * New accepted changes must be code complete, meaning all the code required to enable a new Change is finished. * The level of code completeness is reflected in tracker bug as state "ON_QA". The change does not have to be fully tested by this deadline.
== Beta Freeze [3] == Only packages fixing a bug approved as Accepted Blocker or Freeze Exception [4] will be marked as 'stable' and included in Beta composes. Other builds will remain in updates-testing until the Beta release is approved, at which point the Beta Freeze is lifted and packages can move to 'stable' as usual until the Final Freeze.
