Hi all,

Just a quick reminder about the above.

Owncloud 8.1.5 is in the process of going to the Fedora 23 testing repo at
the moment (just waiting the push).

Fedora 22 will get a similar updates-testing in the next few days.

In a week or two these will be pushed stable and 8.2.2 will enter
updates-testing.

If you're able to provide help in testing (remember backups!) it would be
appreciated.
