Comment (by adamwill):
Well, there's no straightforward way to identify 'cloud release blockers';
we do not segment them by product in any way.
Blocker bugs are handled with tracker bugs in Bugzilla. Three trackers are
filed for each release: one for Alpha, one for Beta, one for Final. They
are given standard aliases: F(rel)AlphaBlocker , F(rel)BetaBlocker,
F(rel)FinalBlocker , where (rel) is the release number. So currently we
have F25AlphaBlocker, F25BetaBlocker, and F25FinalBlocker.
Any bug blocking one of those trackers is either a proposed or an accepted
blocker. If it has 'AcceptedBlocker', 'Accepted0Day' or
'AcceptedPreviousRelease' in its whiteboard field, it's an accepted
blocker. If it does not, it's a proposed blocker.
There's a webapp called 'blockerbugs' -
https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs - which we (QA) use for
convenience in dealing with blockers. It handles a lot of the work of
identifying blockers for upcoming cycles. Off the top of my head I don't
know if it has an API, and I also don't know if anything sends out
fedmsg's for proposed / accepted blockers.
