by Jaroslav Reznik 20 Nov '12

20 Nov '12

Join us on irc.freenode.net in #fedora-meeting-1 for this important meeting, wherein we shall determine the readiness of the Fedora 18 Beta. Thursday, November 22, 2012 @20:00 UTC (15:00 EST/12:00 PST/21:00 CET) "Before each public release Development, QA and Release Engineering meet to determine if the release criteria are met for a particular release. This meeting is called the Go/No-Go Meeting." "Verifying that the Release criteria are met is the responsibility of the QA Team." For more details about this meeting see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Go_No_Go_Meeting In the meantime, keep an eye on the Fedora 18 Beta Blocker list: http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/18/beta/buglist Btw. Thanksgiving conflict is known, but we decided not to move Go/No-Go to Wednesday because of limited time for testing, let me know in case of (strong) objections. Jaroslav
