TOPIC: Previous meeting follow-up
=======================================================================
	* adamw filed a trac ticket[1] for getting arm into the
	  criteria / validation process
	* adamw made some progress on making sure all important old-UI
	  bugs discovered in F16 validation have been bumped and
	  prioritized F17
	* adamw started a discussion with pjones/kparal/hongqing/
	  robatino to decide how we want to use pjones' el torito boot
	  checker (private mail)
	* tflink was to contact lmacken re co-ordination between bodhi
	  2.0 and autoqa: bodhi 2.0 will be backwards compatible, so
	  autoqa should continue to work as before 

TOPIC: Fedora 17 status
=======================================================================
	* A manual install of rats #2 boot.iso works, DVD image does
	  not boot[2], rats_install run hits a dracut / virt-install
	  issue[3] with boot parameters
	* Not clear if current nightly live images are generally
	  bootable or not, j_dulaney has a kernel issue booting them
	* Retrospective tasks are mostly completed or well-advanced

TOPIC: /usr move feature and testing
=======================================================================
	* Testing of rawhide with /usr move packages so far is
	  positive: if we can compose a working / installable boot.iso
	  with /usr move packages, the feature can be tagged into
	  rawhide 

TOPIC: Upcoming QA events
=======================================================================
	* TC1 is due tomorrow (2012-01-31)
	* Blocker bug review meeting #2 on Friday (2012-02-03)

TOPIC: AutoQA update
=======================================================================
	* mkrizek pushed a patch to make autoqa better retry failed /
	  timed-out connections
	* kparal refactored rats_install test and fixed many problems

TOPIC: Open floor
=======================================================================
	* F17 images so far are mysteriously smaller than F16, we're
	  not sure of the cause 

ACTION ITEMS
=======================================================================
	* kparal to file a bug for the failure of rats #2 DVD image to
	  boot
	* tflink to test building a boot.iso with usrmove builds
