Hi all,
Today, 2024-04-02, is an important day on the Fedora Linux 40 schedule [1], with significant cut-offs.
Today we have the Final Freeze [2] which starts at 14:00 UTC. This means that only packages that fix accepted blocker or freeze exception bugs [3][4][5] will be marked as 'stable' and included in the Final composes. Other builds will remain in updates-testing until the Final release is approved, at which point the Final freeze is lifted and packages can move to the 'updates' repository. Pending updates will be pushed before the final release as zero-day updates.

Will the currently testing->stable marked updates be still included in stable without having to go through the exception/blocker process?

I was told there would be one more stable push at the releng channel on matrix.

Yeah, there's a final stable push right before freezing.
Thats been done, so check now if you still are looking to get anything in. If so, it will need a approved freeze exception or blocker.
