2024-03-18 @ ** 16:00 ** UTC - Fedora 40 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 17 Mar '24

17 Mar '24

# F40 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2024-03-18 # Time: ** 16:00 ** UTC # Location: https://matrix.to/#/#blocker-review:fedoraproject.org?web-instance[element.… Hi folks! It's time for another blocker review meeting. We have 1 proposed freeze exception for Beta, and 10 proposed blockers for Final. As a reminder, clocks went forward in North America last week, so the meeting is an hour earlier in UTC than it was before. If you have changed your clocks forward recently the meeting will be at the same local time as before, it not it will be earlier. Here is a handy link which should show you the meeting time in your local time: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Fedora+40+Blocker… The meeting will be on Matrix. Click the link above to join in a web client - you can authenticate with your FAS account - or use a dedicated client of your choosing. 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/ . Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions. Those links take you to tickets where you can vote. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!** 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 F40 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!

Dear Fedorans, Are you ready to make a difference in the world of Fedora Linux? We're thrilled to announce the launch of our brand new test day series: Rawhide Test Days! These events are your opportunity to play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and reliability of upcoming Fedora releases. Rawhide test days will play their unique role in keeping Fedora Linux releases on time. Fedora test days are renowned for their inclusivity – they welcome participation from both seasoned Fedora contributors and newcomers alike. If you've been itching to dip your toes into the world of Fedora Linux contribution, this is your perfect starting point. For some time now, we've been dedicated to elevating the quality standards of Fedora by implementing rigorous testing processes well in advance. Our Fedora Changes process facilitates the submission of changesets long before the official release cycle begins. As part of this effort, we're excited to introduce Rawhide Test Days, an initiative designed to test these changesets thoroughly and identify any potential (blocker) bugs early on. To kick off this exciting journey, we're focusing our efforts on testing DNF 5 – a crucial changeset proposed for Fedora Linux 41[0]. With the introduction of the brand new DNF5 package in Rawhide, we're organizing a test days to gather initial feedback before it becomes the default. We'll be rigorously testing DNF5 against its basic acceptance criteria to ensure a seamless transition. Mark your calendars for our Rawhide Test Days, taking place from Friday, March 15th, through Tuesday, March 19th. Your participation during this week will be invaluable as we work together to refine Fedora Linux for its upcoming release. Ready to dive in? Visit our test week page [1] to learn more about how you can contribute and make your mark on the future of Fedora. Happy testing, and we can't wait to see you there!
