TOPIC: Previous meeting follow-up
=======================================================================
	* "tflink or someone competent to talk to releng about where to
	  file bugs in the cloud .ks and whether it needs to be
	  packaged in the distro" - dgilmore will be making sure cloud
	  kickstarts get added to spin-kickstarts package, cloud
	  kickstart bugs should be reported against spin-kickstarts
	  package going forward
	* "adamw to talk to anaconda devs and get a build done for beta
	  tc1 with live keyboard bug fixed" - there was already a build
	  ready that went into TC1. anaconda team was happy with that
	  build for TC1
	* "spstarr to work on iSCSI install testing" - spstarr not
	  present at the meeting, did not look like testing had been
	  done for TC1
	* "adamw to look into nightly fail" - was already resolved soon
	  after the meeting 

TOPIC: Fedora 20 Beta status
=======================================================================
	* Quite a few required tests had not yet been run for TC1, we
	  needed to get to those for TC1/TC2
	* TC1 ARM images were DOA, dgilmore and pwhalen were dealing
	  with it
	* We decided it would be a good idea to build TC2 soon 

TOPIC: Test Day status and help wanted
=======================================================================
	* 2013-10-08 would be virtualization test day[1], and Thursday
	  2013-10-10 would be GNOME test day[2]
	* adamw and handsome-pirate volunteered to help out with
	  graphics test week
	* Volunteers were still welcome to help run future Test Days 

TOPIC: Possible elongated schedule for Fedora 21
=======================================================================
	* Per ticket #1178[3], FESCo wanted solid justifications for
	  possibly providing extra development time for F21
	* viking-ice suggested pushing to have anaconda development
	  cycle adjusted to stabilize earlier in the cycle (would
	  probably need a longer cycle to achieve)
	* tflink wanted to work on test automation and blocker bug app
	* handsome-pirate wanted to work on validation test result
	  tracker app
	* adamw suggested that all those with solid ideas draw up a
	  detailed and realistic proposal for getting somewhere
	  concrete within an elongated release cycle and add them to
	  the FESCo ticket, perhaps after list discussion 

TOPIC: Open floor
=======================================================================
	* viking-ice suggested a plan to assign 'QA team' members to
	  specific packages or package groups for testing and triage
	  tasks; further discussion needed 

Action items
=======================================================================
	* adamw to co-ordinate with anaconda team to get a new anaconda
	  build done and roll TC2
	* tflink and handsome_pirate to write up detailed proposals for
	  projects to be worked on in a possible longer f21 schedule
	  and post / link to them in the trac ticket
