Or are FE6 builds now also locked down? FE[56] builds are not locked down. You bring up a very good point about the upgrade path. I will add it to the page. Essentially, if you're upgrading a package across f7 and fe[56], the easiest way to do so and not break the upgrade path is to upgrade f7, submit the request to rel-eng, then upgrade fe[56] after the f7 build has been tagged. You don't _need_ to do it in that order, but it's the most "fail-safe". josh -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
