Hi folks! It's time for a Fedora 42 blocker review meeting! We have 4
proposed blockers and 2 proposed freeze exceptions for Final.
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+41+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 this weekend, 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 F42 can be found on the
wiki [0].

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:

Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!

Mark your calendars for the upcoming Fedora 42 CoreOS Test Week, which will
take place from March 24 to 28, 2025!
The test week is an opportunity for the community to test FCOS based on
Fedora 42 content before it is released as part of the `testing` and
`stable` streams.
Your contributions will make a significant impact on the quality and
stability of Fedora CoreOS (FCOS).
To get started we will first host a virtual in-person prep video session
this Friday, March 21'st at 14:30 UTC (10:30 EDT) to discuss some of the
details related to the test week.
On March 26'th at 16:30 UTC (12:30 EDT) we will host the main session,
where you can drop in, ask questions, and get help from members of the
Fedora CoreOS team!
If you want to participate in the Test Week, check out the Fedora Wiki page
for details and log your results in the Test Day page.
