!!! ALL-CAPS RED-ALERT OMG LOL !!!
Fedora 16 Alpha test compose is less than *one* week away (Jul 26) and F16 Alpha isn't far behind (Aug 10 for go/no_go meeting) [2]. This is the difficult transition from the chaos of rawhide, to a releasable Alpha. To have any hope of shipping F16 Alpha on time ... we need to identify as many Alpha criteria [3] blockers as possible, which means rawhide test feedback is needed.
!!! ALL-CAPS RED-ALERT OMG LOL !!!
Mark your calendars ... the second Alpha blocker review meeting starts at 17:00 UTC in #fedora-bugzappers. We'll review proposed and accepted F16 Alpha blocker bugs. An updated list of blocker bugs is available at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Current_Release_Blockers (also attached to this mail). We'll be reviewing the bugs to determine ... 1. whether they meet the Alpha release criteria [3] and should stay on the list 2. are getting the attention they need
