[Test Day] Packaged Rust applications and libraries on 2018.04.04
by Sumantro Mukherjee 29 Mar '18

29 Mar '18

Hey All, Wednesday 2018-04-04 will be Packaged Rust applications and libraries Test Day![0] Many of you would have read the amazing magazine article which came out a month[1] ago! As we approach the Beta, we felt we should have test day around some of these applications. Featuring two of the big chnages[2][3] of Fedora 28 we would test to make sure that all the functionalities are performing as they should. We need to ensure it's working well enough and catch any remaining issues. It's also pretty easy to join in: all you'll need is F28 image (which you can grab from the wiki page). As always, the event will be in #fedora-test-day on Freenode IRC.

Hi folks! I'm proposing we cancel the QA meeting on Monday.

If anyone would like to have a meeting, and is willing to run it in my place, please just go ahead and send an announcement mail (and, of course, show up to run the meeting on Monday). Thanks! There *will* be a blocker review meeting, of course. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

Fedora 28 Beta status is NO-GO
by Jan Kurik 22 Mar '18

22 Mar '18

Release status of the Fedora 28 Beta is NO-GO. Due to missing RC for the F28 Beta release and presence of blocker bugs, the decision is “No Go”. The Beta release slips for one week to “Target #1” date (April 3rd). We are not going to slip the Final GA yet. For more information please check the minutes from the F28 Beta Go/No-Go meeting [1][2].

[Call for Action] Deprecate TCP wrappers Today!
by Sumantro Mukherjee 21 Mar '18

21 Mar '18

Hey All, A gentle reminder, Today(2018-03-22) is Deprecate TCP wrappers[1] Test Day! As part of this planned Change[2]for Fedora 28, this is an important Test Day! TCP wrappers is a simple tool to block incoming connection on the application level. This was very useful 20 years ago when there were no firewalls in Linux. This is not the case for today and connection filtering should be done at the network level or completely in application scope if it makes sense Removing this package from Fedora will remove a package from default and minimal installations (removing the dependency of daemons such as SSHD). It also makes the configuration straight-forward for new users (no shared files defining access rules, poorly reporting any errors to users. Removing the dependency from all packages and retiring the package in the single release will minimize users confusion and avoids opening sensitive services after the update. Since many crucial functionalities (OpenSSH and others) depend on this, We hope to test and see, whether it's working well enough and catch any remaining issues. As always, the event will be in #fedora-test-day on Freenode IRC.

# F28 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2018-03-12 # Time: ** 16:00 ** UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net Hi folks! We have four proposed blockers and nine proposed freeze exceptions for Fedora 28 Beta, so let's have a review meeting tomorrow. Note that daylight savings time started in North America (mostly) today, so the meeting is now an hour earlier in UTC. If you changed your clocks forward today, the meeting will be at the same local time as before. If you did *not* change your clocks, the meeting will be an hour earlier than last week for you. If you have time today, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists 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 F28 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 day and see you tomorrow!

Fedora 28 Bodhi Activation Point
by Mohan Boddu 05 Mar '18

05 Mar '18

Hi all, Today’s an important day on the Fedora 28 schedule[1], with several significant cut-offs. First of all today is the Bodhi activation point [2]. That means that from now all Fedora 28 packages must be submitted to updates-testing and pass the relevant requirements[3] before they will be marked as ‘stable’ and moved to the fedora repository. Today is also the Software String freeze[4], which means that strings marked for translation in Fedora-translated projects should not now be changed for Fedora 28. Finally, today is the ‘completion deadline’ Change Checkpoint[5], meaning that Fedora 28 Changes must now be ‘feature complete or close enough to completion that a majority of its functionality can be tested’. Regards Release Engineering.

2018-03-05 @ 17:00 UTC - Fedora 28 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 04 Mar '18

04 Mar '18

# F28 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2018-03-05 # Time: 17:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.freenode.net Hi folks! We have two proposed blockers for Fedora 28 Beta and we're entering the freeze, so let's have a review meeting tomorrow. If you have time today, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists 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 F28 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 day and see you tomorrow!

[REPORT] Kernel 4.15 Test Day 2018-02-22
by Sumantro Mukherjee 02 Mar '18

02 Mar '18

Hey All, Hi folks! Test Day[1] on Kernel 4.15 was a great success! Here's the Test Day report. 56 testers[2] combined ran a total of 112 tests and reported logs and filed bugs. So the event looks like a success on all fronts: we found some new bugs to squish, but it also gives us a decent indication that the new kernel is in a good enough condition for a first stable release. Testers tested it for different arch(s) and various hardware. Bugs: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1546440 We would love to hear what more can we do to help testers get started with Kernel Testing and if something more can be done in the coming test days!
