The fix will be done via a pull request that states a time limit. We
want the regular maintainers to see / comment / commit, but we also
don't want things to stall for months and get forgotten about.
What happens at the end of the time limit? Do you ProvenPackager the PR
in?
What if I do not want to have %if's in my spec files?
As long as your package builds in ELN then just maintain your package
like normal. If there is a build failure, the ELN SIG may provide a PR
as described above or will discuss alternative approaches on an
individual basis with you.
So... if we don't want %ifs in our spec files, the ELN SIG will provide
us some?
Post build result to Fedora Messaging, so that it appears in Bodhi
and
can be used as a gating test.
So regular package updates are going to be gated on ELN. This doesn't
sound like something non-RHEL maintainers will want. What am I missing?
It is under discussion whether this snapshot will have its own
installation media. For now the preferred way to test ELN composes
would be to use standard Fedora Rawhide images and then include ELN as
an additional repository.
Is there a dnf change that goes with this to prefer ELN content, then?
ELN artifacts will be made available for testing and development
purposes, but we will not be shipping any content produced from ELN
directly to the general public (such as on the standard mirror network
or via
getfedora.org).

Though it is a System-Wide Change it has no user-facing component. We
may announce it through other channels.
I'm confused. This is going to be installable and testable, but has no
user-facing component? What's a user-facing component then?
Thanks,
