 It's time to start doing Fedora 18 Beta composes:

 http://jreznik.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-18/f-18-releng-tasks.html

 "Create Beta Test Compose (TC) - Tue 2012-10-02"

 So let's have a TC1! Please use https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates
 /livecd-tools-18.12-1.fc18 to build the live images, it should make them
 EFI bootable (this has been broken for a few days). Please use
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-14395/lorax-18.20-1.fc18
 to build the DVDs, we usually want to use the latest lorax. Also, we have
 some stuff that should be pulled in to the composes:

  *
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-14924/samba-4.0.0-150.fc18.rc1
 - the old 'samba4' package has been blocked, so anything built against
 samba 4, including sssd, won't install unless this is included (thus
 breaking install from DVD and compose of live images)
  *
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-15231/yum-3.4.3-45.fc18
 for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=862221
  *
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-15149/grub2-2.00-9.fc18
 for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855849 and
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=850783
  * https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/grubby-8.20-1.fc18 for
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=859285
  *
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-14392/firstboot-18.4-1.fc18
 for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856194
  *
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-15207/anaconda-18.11-1.fc18
 just to have latest anaconda in the TC (obviously wanted)
  *
 https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-15232/kernel-3.6.0-1.fc18
 to have latest stable non-debug kernel

 The Deliverables SOP is still in draft status, but it may be useful as a
 reference:
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Adamwill/Draft_releng_SOP_deliverables
 . For Beta we need netinst, DVD, and lives for four main desktops plus
 SoaS.
