Meeting summary
---------------
* Why are we here  (rbergero, 17:05:46)
   * The purpose of this meeting is to determine the "shippiness" of the
     final release of F17 (RC4, to be specific). All blocker bugs must be
     resolved, the test matrices need to be completed, we need to meet
     final release criteria, QA needs to be on board. :)  (rbergero,
     17:06:54)

* Blocker Bugs  (rbergero, 17:07:23)
   * LINK: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Current_Release_Blockers
     (tflink, 17:08:21)

* (824191) nfsiso install hangs during reboot  (tflink, 17:09:32)
   * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=824191   (tflink,
     17:09:32)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 17:09:32)
   * AGREED: - 824191 - RejectedBlocker - While this is a bug, it doesn't
     directly violate any of the Fedora 17 release criteria (the install
     completes, the installed system works). Given that it should only
     affect a minority of users and could be fixed with an updates.img -
     it doesn't need to block release.  (tflink, 17:18:12)

* (824641) kernel 3.3 crashes with blk_dump_rq_flags+ when using a
   file:/// backend instead of phy:// backend  (tflink, 17:18:29)
   * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=824641   (tflink,
     17:18:32)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 17:18:35)
   * AGREED: - 824641 - RejectedBlocker - This appears to be a Dom0 issue
     instead of a DomU issue which does not violate any of the Fedora 17
     release criteria. In addition, the use of file:// storage backends
     is not recommended and phy:// storage backends do not seem affected
     by this bug  (tflink, 17:34:24)

* Release Criteria and Test Matrices  (rbergero, 17:35:34)
   * LINK:
     https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_17_Final_RC4_Install
     (tflink, 17:36:14)
   * LINK:
     https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_17_Final_RC4_Desktop
     (tflink, 17:36:28)
   * 813257 is waived as a blocker as the only options are to wait
     indefinitely for a fix or drop kdepim entirely; we can't just drop
     the offending application as it's part of kdepim, which we need
     (adamw, 17:46:13)
   * 819275 agreed not to be worthy of blocker consideration as it
     affects fallback mode only, and fallback mode is niche now  (adamw,
     18:03:31)

* Ship or not to ship, that is the question  (rbergero, 18:04:32)
   * AGREED: We shall ship the Beefy Miracle (aka F17) on Tuesday, May 29
     (rbergero, 18:05:56)

Meeting ended at 18:07:23 UTC.
