# F29 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2018-10-01
# Time: 16:00 UTC
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net
Hi folks! We have 7 proposed Final blockers and 2 proposed Final freeze
exceptions to review, so let's have a review meeting tomorrow. Again we
have GNOME and grub2 bugs on the list, along with a couple in anaconda
and cron.
If you have time today, 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].

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 night and see you tomorrow!

Hey All,
Fedora 29 Atomic and Cloud provides latest version of packages from Fedora 29.
Both Fedora Cloud Base and Atomic Host provide the latest available versions of packages in Fedora 29
containing all features and bug fixes done in individual packages like the kernel, cockpit and more.
Additionally, Fedora Atomic Host includes the latest version of podman, which provides the ability to use OCI containers[0] and runc.
This Test Day is to make sure that all artifacts from Fedora 29 Atomic Host and Cloud Base are working as expected and to catch and fix bugs early.
For Atomic Host, there are ISO and QCOW2 images available to test on the aarch64, ppc64le and x86_64 architectures.
Additionally, there are libvirt and virtualbox vagrant images for both Atomic Host and Cloud Base.
If you use AWS to launch instances in cloud, you can help by testing the AMIs both Atomic Host and Cloud Base.
All the details on how and what to test and more information about the available media download details are available at Test Day wiki page[1].

Hey All,
Many of you might have been using Java in one form other. Java folks and Fedora QA is hosting a Java Test Day on 2018-09-26.
This instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on OpenJDK 11 and OpenJDK 10.
Currently we have java-1.8.0-openjdk as main JDK in Fedora.

Please test and submit your reports!
