[Test-Announce] Fedora 25 Beta Freeze
Hi all,
Today is an important day on the Fedora 25 schedule[1], with two
significant cut-offs.
Today is the Beta freeze[2]. This means that only packages which fix
accepted blocker or freeze exception bugs[3][4] will be marked as
'stable' and included in the Beta composes. Other builds will remain
in updates-testing until the Beta release is approved, at which point
the Beta freeze is lifted and packages can move to 'stable' as usual
until the Final freeze.
Finally, Today is the '100% code complete deadline' Change
Checkpoint[5], meaning that Fedora 24 Changes must now be code
complete, meaning all the code required to enable to the new change is
finished. The level of code completeness is reflected as tracker bug
state ON_QA. The change does not have to be fully tested by this
deadline'.
