# F16 Alpha Blocker Review meeting #1
# Date: 2011-07-15
# Time: 17:00 UTC [1] (13:00 EDT, 10:00 PDT, 10:00 MST)
# Location: #fedora-bugzappers on

Hard to believe, but the "vacation" is over. Fedora 16 Alpha test
compose is a few weeks away (Jul 26) and the Alpha is about a month away
(Aug 10 for go/no_go meeting).
In an effort to reduce last minute bug scramble, the blocker review
meetings will be starting up again [2]. Each Friday, between now and
the Alpha release, a blocker review will take place in
#fedora-bugzappers.
Mark your calendars ... the first 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
For guidance on Blocker and Nice-to-have (NTH) bugs, refer to
