I think the biggest problem is that the majority of us willing to do QA are concerned with 7.3, and possibly 7.2, but really don't have a need for 8.0. I happen to have a dogfood system I can drop any OS on and play with, so I can do the 8.0 and 7.2 work that nobody else seems to want to do, but my time is rather limited. This is one of the reasons I originally didn't want to support 7.2 and 8.0, because I forsaw a lack of community participation on these platforms. Almost every package that needs QA has at least gotten 7.3 QA, and it's just waiting for 7.2 and/or 8.0. So I have to ask again, is there really all that much need for 8.0 support? Is there going to be any help for it? Is there going to be anybody willing to VERIFY these packages once I put them into -testing? I hate to continue to push packages that have only gotten 7.2 and/or 7.3 QA, but no 8.0 QA, but at the same time, I hate holding back packages because nobody is willing to QA them on a crap platform. -- Jesse Keating RHCE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedoralegacy.org) Mondo DevTeam (www.mondorescue.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
