While the last conversation around the F18 release criteria did yeild some interesting information, it wasn't quite what I had in mind so let's try this again :) With all of the criteria changes we've had for F18, we'd like to get some feedback on the current criteria to make sure that we're not either overreaching or missing some important functionality. We're interested in feedback on the criteria themselves instead of the blocker or criteria review process. I've listed the new and revised criteria for F18 at the end of this email but input on the old criteria would also be appreciated. - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_18_Alpha_Release_Criteria - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_18_Beta_Release_Criteria - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_18_Final_Release_Criteria Tim ============================================================ New/Changed Alpha Release Criteria ============================================================ The installer must be able to install each of the release blocking desktops, as well as the minimal package set, with each supported installation method The installer must be able to complete an installation using automatic partitioning to any sufficiently large target disk, whether unformatted, empty, or containing any kind of existing data The installer must allow the user to select which of the disks connected to the system will be affected by the installation process. Disks not selected as installation targets must not be affected by the installation process in any way ============================================================ New/Changed Beta Release Criteria ============================================================ The installer must be able to complete an installation using automatic partitioning to a validly-formatted disk with sufficient empty space, using the empty space and installing a bootloader but leaving the pre-existing partitions and data untouched === This is still under review - waiting for input === The installer's custom partitioning mode must be capable of the following: * Creating, destroying and assigning mount points to partitions of any specified size using most commonly-used filesystem types * Creating encrypted partitions * Rejecting obviously invalid operations without crashing For each one of the release-blocking package sets ('minimal', and the package sets for each one of the release-blocking desktops), it must be possible to successfully complete an upgrade from a fully updated installation of the previous stable Fedora release with that package set installed, using any officially recommended upgrade mechanisms. The upgraded system must meet all release criteria. ============================================================ New/Changed Final Release Criteria ============================================================ For each one of the release-blocking package sets ('minimal', and the package sets for each one of the release-blocking desktops), it must be possible to successfully complete an upgrade from a fully updated installation of the previous stable Fedora release with that package set installed, using all officially recommended upgrade mechanisms. The upgraded system must meet all release criteria.
