OK, so I've started looking at some of these packages, what is the
procedure to close them?
Good we need more ppl that can do that so all want's to help now is the
time to go trough the list and QA packages. The prcedure is to have
2 ppl that have tested a package and voted for publish, then a relase manager can put that package in update testing.
List is here: http://www-astro.physics.ox.ac.uk/~dom/legacy/issues.txt
For instance, the rsync package (bug 1569)
looks to be resolved and confirmed. I see that it has made it's way to updates-testing... how does it get from there to updates?
If a package is in testing then a person who has rights to make a relase will close the bug after 2 weeks in testing if no one have complained about problems during that time.
So the more ppl who can do QA and put feedback into bugzilla the faster we can get the packages out.
Jesse when is the 'public' build server ready?
Cheers Johnny

See bottom for changes
This list is also available at http://www-astro.physics.ox.ac.uk/~dom/legacy/issues.txt
Packages that have been verified and should be fully released -------------------------------------------------------------
tcpdump - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1468
Packages in state RESOLVED (ie exist in updates-testing) that need active work. ------------------------------------------------------------------
mailman - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1269 There were some unconfirmed reports of breakage with the candidate. This needs more QA before release.
mod_python - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1325 Needs 2 VERIFY before release.
ethereal - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1419 Needs 2 VERIFY before release. - but dup with 1840?
kernel - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1484 Needs missing file rebuilt for verification - but preferentially put work into later kernel ticket
mozilla - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1532 Needs 2 VERIFY but has been superceded
lha - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1547 Needs 2 VERIFY but has been superceded
cadaver - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1552 Needs 1 VERIFY before release.
rsync - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1569 Needs 2 VERIFY but has been superceded.
flim - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1581 Needs 1 VERIFY before release.
squid - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1732 Needs 1 VERIFY before release (but about to be superceded?)
squirrelmail - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1733 Needs 2 VERIFY before release (also double check no new issues have cropped up)
xchat - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1549 Needs 2 VERIFY before release.
Packages in state UNCONFIRMED, NEW, ASSIGNED or REOPENED: --------------------------------------------------------
* yum - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1583 IMO this shouldn't be in the Package Request component close WONTFIX re rh8?
vsftp - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1778 Resolution of whether we are vulnerable needed.
* kernel - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1797 VM (non-security) bug in rh9 that was never fixed before EOL. Looks to me like this should be closed WONTFIX.
* rpm - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1864 No rationale given for bug request - the rh bug it refers to dates from before rh7.3 EOL. WONTFIX?
* readline - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=2017 Another not fixed before EOL (rh9). WONTFIX?
XFree86 - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1289 This has had 2 PUBLISHes for 7.3 and the only problem holding it back was likely a gdk-pixbuf red herring. Packages should be built for this and pushed to updates-testing I think.
gaim - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1237 Needs 2 PUBLISH
netpbm - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1257 Needs 2 PUBLISH

yum - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1604 Needs 2 PUBLISH
mod_ssl - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1708 Needs 2 PUBLISH for rh9 - superceded?
mod_ssl - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1888 Needs 1 PUBLISH for rh7.3 - superceded?
krb5 - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1726 Obsoleted
mod_proxy - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1737 Has 2 PUBLISH, build packages for updates-testing or fix further minor non-security issues
libxml - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1324 Sort out confusion over status over version in updates-testing and add RESOLVED flag.
gdk-pixbuf - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1371 Packages built for updates-testing and/or a couple of formal PUBLISH needed.
sysstat - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1372 Need 2 PUBLISH - 7.3 only I think
mc - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1548 Need 2 PUBLISH (but superceded?)
libpng - https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1550 Superceded

Needs PUBLISH means that there are packages available for QA that need to be QAd at the source level.
Needs VERIFY means that there are updates-testing packages that need testing. This is the easy bit, let's get this old ones out of the way ASAP.
* means that there is a judgement call that can be made on the bug system immediately. Please follow up onlist with opinions.
