Hello all,

I would favour to make optical media issues blockers for beta so they'll be (hopefully) solved by the time of the final release.

My 2 cents.

So, I wonder whether Fedora as a project thinks about de-emphasizing
optical media a bit, and if it does, I'd make appropriate changes
even in our QA processes. Here are a couple of ideas that I consider
could be likely to happen in future Fedora releases.

I'm in favor overall.

Idea #1: Do not block on optical media issues for Alpha and Beta releases

My concern here is that if we don't make it a blocker for at least beta
but do for final, it's setting us up for a scramble at final time.

Idea #2: Do not block on optical media issues for Final release for
certain flavors/image types (Server, netinst)

+1 to this one. But is there likely to be a case where it fails on just
those? I guess this primarily reduces what you need to _test_. So,
yeah, +1.
