In an effort to be even more open, responsive, and reliable, Fedora Release Engineering has created an email to Trac gateway. Email requests for release engineering tasks sent to rel-eng@fedoraproject.org will now be turned into tickets filed in the rel-eng Trac space. This will allow for better visibility in the tasks needing to be done, a more public record of task discussions, and better record keeping to prevent things from falling through the email cracks.

Any person that mails this address should receive an automated response from the Trac system regarding their ticket with a URL that they can visit to track the ticket progress, make updates, etc...

Along with using email to submit tickets, email can also be used to update tickets. So long as you are replying to the mail you get from Trac about said ticket, and you keep the subject line intact, your email response will update the ticket.

Please let us know either via email or through the #fedora-admin IRC channel if you experience any difficulties with this new setup.
