2021-09-27 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 35 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 24 Sep '21

24 Sep '21

# F35 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2021-09-27 # Time: 16:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat Hi folks! We have 9 proposed Final blockers to review, so let's have a review meeting on Monday. 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/ . Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions. Those links take you to tickets where you can vote. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!** 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 F35 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process 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: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!

Fedora Linux 35 Beta is NO-GO
by Ben Cotton 15 Sep '21

15 Sep '21

Due to outstanding blocker bugs, we do not have an F35 Beta RC. As a result, F35 Beta is NO-GO by default and tomorrow's Go/No-Go meeting is cancelled. The next Fedora Linux 35 Beta Go/No-Go meeting[1] will be held at 1700 UTC on Thursday 23 September in #fedora-meeting. We will aim for the "target date #2" milestone of 28 September. The release schedule[2] has been updated accordingly. This change does not impact the final release date.
