Hi all,
Today is an important day on the Fedora 25 schedule[1], with two
significant cut-offs.
Today is the Beta freeze[2]. This means that only packages which fix
accepted blocker or freeze exception bugs[3][4] will be marked as
'stable' and included in the 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.
Finally, Today is the '100% code complete deadline' Change
Checkpoint[5], meaning that Fedora 24 Changes must now be code
complete, meaning all the code required to enable to the new change is
finished. The level of code completeness is reflected as tracker bug
state ON_QA. The change does not have to be fully tested by this
deadline'.
Regards
Mohan Boddu

# F25 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2016-09-26
# Time: 16:00 UTC
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net
Hi folks! We currently have 2 proposed Beta blockers and 8 proposed
Final blockers to review.
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 F25 can be found on the
wiki [0].

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:

Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!

The next Tuesday, on 2016-Sep-27, we will reach two important
milestones of the Fedora 25 release [1]:
== Change Checkpoint: 100% Code Complete Deadline [2] ==
* New accepted changes must be code complete, meaning all the code
required to enable to the new change is finished.
* The level of code completeness is reflected as tracker bug state
ON_QA. The change does not have to be fully tested by this deadline.
== Beta Freeze [3] ==
Only packages which fix accepted blocker or freeze exception bugs [4]
will be marked as 'stable' and included in the 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.

Hi folks! I'm proposing we cancel tomorrow's QA meeting. All the
follow-up from last week is about Test Days and I think Sumantro's on
top of that; remember the Media Writer Test Day is on Tuesday! If
anyone does have any topics that need discussing please reply to this
mail and we can run the meeting.
