Fedora 23 Final Release Compose 3 (RC3) Available Now!
by Adam Williamson 23 Oct '15

23 Oct '15

A little late [1], Fedora 23 Final Release Compose 3 (RC3) is now available for testing. Please help us complete all the validation testing! RC3 contains fixes for all known blockers, plus some significant freeze exception issues; there are no outstanding proposed blockers, so we definitely want to get down to some serious testing on this compose. Content information, including changes, can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6266#comment:15 . Please see the following pages for download links and testing instructions. Normally dl.fedoraproject.org should provide the fastest download, but download- ib01.fedoraproject.org is available as a mirror (with an approximately 1 hour lag) in case of trouble. To use it, just replace "dl" with "download-ib01" in the download URL.

Fedora 23 Final status is NO-GO
by Jan Kurik 22 Oct '15

22 Oct '15

At the Fedora 23 Final Go/No-Go Meeting that just ends, was agreed *not to release* the Fedora 23 Final. Due to present blockers in the RC2 build, the decision is No-Go. The release slips for one week. Second Go/No-Go meeting to be planned for the next Thursday. Meeting details can be seen here: Minutes: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2015-10-22/f23-final-go_n… <http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2015-09-17/f23_beta_go_no…> Log: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2015-10-22/f23-final-go_n… <http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2015-09-17/f23_beta_go_no…> Thanks everyone! -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic

Fedora 23 Final Release Compose 2 (RC2) Available Now!
by Adam Williamson 21 Oct '15

21 Oct '15

A little late [1], Fedora 23 Final Release Compose 2 (RC2) is now available for testing. Please help us complete all the validation testing! This is rumor control, here are the facts: RC2 contains fixes for all accepted blockers. However, there are several proposed blockers, at least one of which is pretty likely to be accepted as a blocker at the Go/No-Go meeting tomorrow. We don't want to pre-empt the meeting, but talking with several QA folks, Matthew, releng, and GNOME devs on IRC today we agreed to try and look ahead a bit, and what we're expecting to happen is that at least one blocker will be accepted tomorrow and we are thus likely to slip - we've agreed that we definitely don't want to try and do some insane last-minute RC3 heroics, we want to make sure things get built and tested properly and thoroughly. Bearing that in mind, please, no-one kill yourself testing this: there's no need for any all-night testing heroics! RC2 tests will be valuable, but there's no need to go all out. At present I'm expecting we'll build an RC3 tomorrow and focus on testing that really thoroughly over the next 7 days (and any further RCs that turn out to be necessary). RC1 was a failed compose attempt in releng, it never got out. Content information, including changes, can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6266#comment:14 .

2015-10-19 @ 16:00 UTC ** Fedora 23 Blocker Review
by Mike Ruckman 18 Oct '15

18 Oct '15

# F23 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2015-10-19 # Time: 1600 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net Last week we did an out-of-sync blocker review because bugs were stacking up and Go/No-Go is coming up. Even though we cleaned out the list, we're already back up to 6 proposed blockers and 7 proposed FEs. Needless to say, we'll be having our usual blocker review meeting tomorrow. If you have time tonight or tomorrow, to take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full list can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not fixed. Information on the release criteria for F23 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP on the wiki: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good weekend and see you Monday!

Fedora 23 Final Test Compose 10 (TC10) and Test Compose 11 (TC11) Available Now!
by Adam Williamson 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

As scheduled [1], Fedora 23 Final Test Compose 10 (TC10) and TC11 are now available for testing. Please help us complete all the validation testing! As discussed at yesterday's blocker review meeting, we requested two TCs at the same time because of the GNOME 3.18.1 mega-update. The two TCs should be the same, except that 10 does not have the GNOME 3.18.1 mega-update, while 11 does. This way we can easily compare the two and we'll know that any problems in TC11 that aren't in TC10 are down to the 3.18.1 update, and we can back it out again if they're too bad. Content information, including changes, can be found at https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/6266#comment:9 . Please see the following pages for download links and testing instructions. Normally dl.fedoraproject.org should provide the fastest download, but download- ib01.fedoraproject.org is available as a mirror (with an approximately 1 hour lag) in case of trouble. To use it, just replace "dl" with "download-ib01" in the download URL. Installation: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test Base: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Base_Test Workstation and Desktop: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test Server: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Server_Test Cloud: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Cloud_Test Summary: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Summary Note the links are to TC11. To see the TC10 pages, you can edit the URLs you get after redirect and replace 'TC11' with 'TC10'. For now I'd recommend testing TC11, and it'd be great if folks can run the Workstation desktop validation tests on TC11; if those all go well, we can say the GNOME mega-update is fine, and then we don't have to worry about TC10 at all. If Workstation testing of TC11 throws up some problems and we decide to back out of 3.18.1, I'll send out a mail suggesting people switch focus to TC10. All Alpha, Beta and Final priority test cases for each of these test pages [2] must pass in order to meet the Final Release Criteria [3].
