Meeting summary
---------------
* welcome, again (rbergeron, 21:06:00)
* need clean bill of health on release blockers, testing done, etc.
(rbergeron, 21:06:45)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=804216 (tflink, 21:09:00)
* AGREED: - 804216 - RejectedBlocker (beta) - This is a little nasty
but it can be worked around by installing the langpacks manually
post-install or enabling a network repo (tflink, 21:14:21)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811412 (tflink, 21:14:51)
* AGREED: - 811412 - RejectedBlocker - Respun lives from RC4.1 will be
accepted for beta. Since RC4.1 is not affected by this bug, dropping
as a blocker for F17 beta (tflink, 21:20:01)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811438 (tflink, 21:20:13)
* AGREED: - 811438 - RejectedBlocker - The oversized KDE spins were a
direct consequence of moving to livecd-creator 17.7. Since the lives
from RC4.1 are using livecd-creator 17.3, this bug does not apply to
beta and thus is not a beta blocker (tflink, 21:23:13)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810451 (tflink, 21:24:00)
* this bug has been reported to be fixed, one contrary report seems to
be talking about a different bug (tflink, 21:25:12)
* LINK:

F17 Beta to slip by an additional week.
by Robyn Bergeron
At the Go/No-Go meeting it was decided to slip the Beta by an additional
week[1]. Minutes follow below.
Though the QA team was able to get through all validation testing, it
was found that preupgrade was not functioning at an acceptable level,
thus becoming an additional blocker which prevents us from shipping RC3,
and necessitating the creation of an RC4.
As a result, ALL MAJOR MILESTONES, and their dependent tasks, will be
pushed out by one week. Beta will now be looking at an expected release
of 2012-04-17, and F17 GA is now scheduled for 2012-05-22. This is the
second one-week slip of beta.
Adjustments to the full F17 schedule have been completed and now reflect
the above Beta and GA dates, and high-level milestones have been updated
as well on the Schedule wiki page[3].
We will be meeting again next Wednesday for another Go/No-Go meeting
(2012-04-11.) All hail our QA pals and the anacondanistas for their
dedication (and many, many others as well).

(rbergeron, 15:12:22)
* AGREED: we are okay with the level of test coverage as of now on RC3
(rbergeron, 15:16:31)
* Blockers (rbergeron, 15:16:41)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=741594 (adamw, 15:18:19)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=741594#c14
(Martix, 15:18:54)
* AGREED: 741594 does not hit any of the criteria and the cited
scenarios are not significant enough to worry about delaying the
beta (adamw, 15:29:18)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810226 (adamw, 15:31:12)
* LINK: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/9198/ (adamw,
15:40:55)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810161 (adamw, 15:48:57)
* AGREED: 810161 is rejected as a blocker because the impact is minor
(it's essentially a cosmetic bug, desktop is still usable), also it
only hits one specific virt configuration so it can at least be
worked around. accepted as NTH and will be commonbugs'ed if we ship
with it (adamw, 16:13:56)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810289 (adamw, 16:14:24)
* AGREED: #810289 is rejected as a blocker on the basis that we've
never actually checked for low space on upgrade (and hence have
implictly never considered it a blocking issue). anaconda will just
try to upgrade and explode. so this isn't in fact a regression
compared to earlier releases, and we don't have a specific
requirement for a low space check in criteria or anywhere else.
accepted as NTH (adamw, 16:31:38)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810136 (adamw, 16:31:59)
* AGREED: 810136 turns out to be a dupe of 810005, moving discussion
(adamw, 19:45:37)
* https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=810005 (adamw, 19:45:42)
* AGREED: 810005 is accepted as a blocker per criterion "The installer
must be able to successfully complete an upgrade installation from a
clean, fully updated default installation (from any official install
medium) of the previous stable Fedora release, either via preupgrade
or by booting to the installer manually. The upgraded system must
meet all release criteria". the known workaround has too many
limitations to be considered 'good enough' (adamw, 19:53:23)
* Go or no-go? (rbergeron, 19:54:12)
* we have a blocker. (rbergeron, 19:54:27)
* qa votes no-go, as do various others from engineering, fesco, pm
(rbergeron, 19:55:18)
* AGREED: we are no-go on F17 Beta RC3 sadly (adamw, 19:58:27)
* ACTION: rbergeron to update schedule.... again (rbergeron,
19:58:55)
* ACTION: rbergero to send slip mail (rbergeron, 20:00:19)
* ACTION: tflink to do blocker meeting mail following slip notice
(rbergeron, 20:00:38)
* ACTION: qa heroes of awesome to get some rest plz (rbergeron,
20:03:09)
* ACTION: adamw to get a hole in one (rbergeron, 20:03:23)
* we will re-convene tomorrow or monday (adamw, 20:08:56)
Meeting ended at 20:08:59 UTC.
